Overview

Package getopt (v2) provides traditional getopt processing for implementing commands that use traditional command lines. The standard Go flag package cannot be used to write a program that parses flags the way ls or ssh does, for example. Version 2 of this package has a simplified API.

See the github.com/pborman/options package for a simple structure based interface to this package.

USAGE

Getopt supports functionality found in both the standard BSD getopt as well as (one of the many versions of) the GNU getopt_long. Being a Go package, this package makes common usage easy, but still enables more controlled usage if needed.

Typical usage: 

// Declare flags and have getopt return pointers to the values.
helpFlag := getopt.Bool('?', "display help")
cmdFlag := getopt.StringLong("command", 'c', "default", "the command")

// Declare flags against existing variables.
var {
	fileName = "/the/default/path"
	timeout = time.Second * 5
	verbose bool
}
func init() {
	getopt.Flag(&verbose, 'v', "be verbose")
	getopt.FlagLong(&fileName, "path", 0, "the path")
	getopt.FlagLong(&timeout, "timeout", 't', "some timeout")
}

func main() {
	// Parse the program arguments
	getopt.Parse()
	// Get the remaining positional parameters
	args := getopt.Args()
	...

If you don't want the program to exit on error, use getopt.Getopt: 

err := getopt.Getopt(nil)
if err != nil {
	// code to handle error
	fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err)
}

FLAG SYNTAX

Support is provided for both short (-f) and long (--flag) options. A single option may have both a short and a long name. Each option may be a flag or a value. A value takes an argument.

Declaring no long names causes this package to process arguments like the traditional BSD getopt.

Short flags may be combined into a single parameter. For example, "-a -b -c" may also be expressed "-abc". Long flags must stand on their own "--alpha --beta"

Values require an argument. For short options the argument may either be immediately following the short name or as the next argument. Only one short value may be combined with short flags in a single argument; the short value must be after all short flags. For example, if f is a flag and v is a value, then: 

-vvalue    (sets v to "value")
-v value   (sets v to "value")
-fvvalue   (sets f, and sets v to "value")
-fv value  (sets f, and sets v to "value")
-vf value  (set v to "f" and value is the first parameter)

For the long value option val: 

--val value (sets val to "value")
--val=value (sets val to "value")
--valvalue  (invalid option "valvalue")

Values with an optional value only set the value if the value is part of the same argument. In any event, the option count is increased and the option is marked as seen. 

-v -f          (sets v and f as being seen)
-vvalue -f     (sets v to "value" and sets f)
--val -f       (sets v and f as being seen)
--val=value -f (sets v to "value" and sets f)

There is no convenience function defined for making the value optional. The SetOptional method must be called on the actual Option. 

v := String("val", 'v', "", "the optional v")
Lookup("v").SetOptional()

var s string
FlagLong(&s, "val", 'v', "the optional v).SetOptional()

Parsing continues until the first non-option or "--" is encountered.

The short name "-" can be used, but it either is specified as "-" or as part of a group of options, for example "-f-". If there are no long options specified then "--f" could also be used. If "-" is not declared as an option then the single "-" will also terminate the option processing but unlike "--", the "-" will be part of the remaining arguments.

ADVANCED USAGE

Normally the parsing is performed by calling the Parse function. If it is important to see the order of the options then the Getopt function should be used. The standard Parse function does the equivalent of: 

func Parse() {
	if err := getopt.Getopt(os.Args, nil); err != nil {
		fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err)
		s.usage()
		os.Exit(1)
	}

When calling Getopt it is the responsibility of the caller to print any errors.

Normally the default option set, CommandLine, is used. Other option sets may be created with New.

After parsing, the sets Args will contain the non-option arguments. If an error is encountered then Args will begin with argument that caused the error.

It is valid to call a set's Parse a second time to amen flags or values. As an example: 

var a = getopt.Bool('a', "", "The a flag")
var b = getopt.Bool('b', "", "The a flag")
var cmd = ""

var opts = getopt.CommandLine

opts.Parse(os.Args)
if opts.NArgs() > 0 {
    cmd = opts.Arg(0)
    opts.Parse(opts.Args())
}

If called with set to { "prog", "-a", "cmd", "-b", "arg" } then both and and b would be set, cmd would be set to "cmd", and opts.Args() would return { "arg" }.

Unless an option type explicitly prohibits it, an option may appear more than once in the arguments. The last value provided to the option is the value.

MANDATORY OPTIONS

An option marked as mandatory and not seen when parsing will cause an error to be reported such as: "program: --name is a mandatory option". An option is marked mandatory by using the Mandatory method: 

getopt.FlagLong(&fileName, "path", 0, "the path").Mandatory()

Mandatory options have (required) appended to their help message: 

--path=value    the path (required)

MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE OPTIONS

Options can be marked as part of a mutually exclusive group. When two or more options in a mutually exclusive group are both seen while parsing then an error such as "program: options -a and -b are mutually exclusive" will be reported. Mutually exclusive groups are declared using the SetGroup method: 

getopt.Flag(&a, 'a', "use method A").SetGroup("method")
getopt.Flag(&a, 'b', "use method B").SetGroup("method")

A set can have multiple mutually exclusive groups. Mutually exclusive groups are identified with their group name in {}'s appeneded to their help message: 

-a    use method A {method}
-b    use method B {method}

BUILTIN TYPES

The Flag and FlagLong functions support most standard Go types. For the list, see the description of FlagLong below for a list of supported types.

There are also helper routines to allow single line flag declarations. These types are: Bool, Counter, Duration, Enum, Int16, Int32, Int64, Int, List, Signed, String, Uint16, Uint32, Uint64, Uint, and Unsigned.

Each comes in a short and long flavor, e.g., Bool and BoolLong and include functions to set the flags on the standard command line or for a specific Set of flags.

Except for the Counter, Enum, Signed and Unsigned types, all of these types can be declared using Flag and FlagLong by passing in a pointer to the appropriate type.

DECLARING NEW FLAG TYPES

A pointer to any type that implements the Value interface may be passed to Flag or FlagLong.

VALUEHELP

All non-flag options are created with a "valuehelp" as the last parameter. Valuehelp should be 0, 1, or 2 strings. The first string, if provided, is the usage message for the option. If the second string, if provided, is the name to use for the value when displaying the usage. If not provided the term "value" is assumed.

The usage message for the option created with 

StringLong("option", 'o', "defval", "a string of letters")

is 

-o, -option=value

StringLong("option", 'o', "defval", "a string of letters", "string")

is 

-o, -option=string

Variables

View Source 
var CommandLine = New()

The default set of command-line options.

View Source 
var DisplayWidth = 80

DisplayWidth is used to determine where to split usage long lines.

View Source 
var HelpColumn = 20

HelpColumn is the maximum column position that help strings start to display at. If the option usage is too long then the help string will be displayed on the next line. For example: 

-a   this is the a flag
-u, --under=location
     the u flag's usage is quite long

func (*Set) UsageLine 

func (s *Set) UsageLine() string

UsageLine returns the usage line for the set s. The set's program name and parameters, if any, are not included.

func (*Set) Visit 

func (s *Set) Visit(fn func(Option))

Visit visits the options in s in lexicographical order, calling fn for each. It visits only those options that have been set.

func (*Set) VisitAll 

func (s *Set) VisitAll(fn func(Option))

VisitAll visits the command-line flags in lexicographical order, calling fn for each. It visits all flags, even those not set.

type SignedLimit 

type SignedLimit struct {
	Base int   // Base for conversion as per strconv.ParseInt
	Bits int   // Number of bits as per strconv.ParseInt
	Min  int64 // Minimum allowed value if both Min and Max are not 0
	Max  int64 // Maximum allowed value if both Min and Max are not 0
}

type State 

type State int

A State is why the Getopt returned.

type UnsignedLimit 

type UnsignedLimit struct {
	Base int    // Base for conversion as per strconv.ParseInt
	Bits int    // Number of bits as per strconv.ParseInt
	Min  uint64 // Minimum allowed value if both Min and Max are not 0
	Max  uint64 // Maximum allowed value if both Min and Max are not 0
}

type Value 

type Value interface {
	// Set converts value into the appropriate type and assigns it to the
	// receiver value.  Option details are provided via opt (such as the
	// flags name).
	//
	// Set is used to reset the value of an option to its default value
	// (which is stored in string form internally).
	Set(value string, opt Option) error

	// String returns the value of the flag as a string.
	String() string
}

Value is the interface to the dynamic value stored in a flag. Flags of type Value are declared using the Flag and FlagLong functions.
