func Errorf

func Errorf(format string, args ...interface{})

Errorf prints to Stderr

func Main

func Main()

Main is meant to be the core of a command that has subcommands (modes), such as camput or camtool.

func RegisterCommand

func RegisterCommand(mode string, makeCmd func(Flags *flag.FlagSet) CommandRunner)

RegisterCommand adds a mode to the list of modes for the main command. It is meant to be called in init() for each subcommand.

Types

type CommandRunner

type CommandRunner interface {
	Usage()
	RunCommand(args []string) error
}

CommandRunner is the type that a command mode should implement.

type UsageError

type UsageError string

func (UsageError) Error

func (ue UsageError) Error() string
