Variables

var (
	// AppCmdName holds the application's name as specified on the command line.
	AppCmdName string
	// AppName holds the name of the application. By default, this is the same as AppCmdName.
	AppName string
	// CopyrightYears holds the years to place in the copyright banner. Instead of setting this explicitly, consider
	// using CopyrightStartYear and CopyrightEndYear instead. For example, setting CopyrightStartYear early in your
	// main() method, and allowing the build system to populate CopyrightEndYear for you.
	CopyrightYears string
	// CopyrightStartYear holds the starting year to place in the copyright banner. Will not be used if CopyrightYears
	// is already set. If not set explicitly, will be set to the year of the "vcs.time" build tag, if available.
	CopyrightStartYear string
	// CopyrightEndYear holds the ending year to place in the copyright banner. Will not be used if CopyrightYears is
	// already set. If not set explicitly, will be set to the year of the "vcs.time" build tag, if available.
	CopyrightEndYear string
	// CopyrightHolder holds the name of the copyright holder.
	CopyrightHolder string
	// License holds the license the software is being distributed under. This is intended to be a simple one line
	// description, such as "Mozilla Public License 2.0" and not the full license itself.
	License string
	// AppVersion holds the application's version information. If not set explicitly, will be the version of the main
	// module. Unfortunately, this automatic setting only works for binaries created using
	// "go install <package>@<version>".
	AppVersion string
	// GitVersion holds the vcs revision and clean/dirty status. If not set explicitly, will be generated from the value
	// of the build tags "vcs.revision" and "vcs.modified".
	GitVersion string
	// VCSModified is true if the "vcs.modified" build tag is true.
	VCSModified bool
	// BuildNumber holds the build number. If not set explicitly, will be generated from the value of the build tag
	// "vcs.time".
	BuildNumber string
	// AppIdentifier holds the uniform type identifier (UTI) for the application. This should contain only alphanumeric
	// (A-Z,a-z,0-9), hyphen (-), and period (.) characters. The string should also be in reverse-DNS format. For
	// example, if your company’s domain is ajax.com and you create an application named Hello, you could assign the
	// string com.ajax.Hello as your AppIdentifier.
	AppIdentifier string
)

Parse a command line string into its component parts.

func ResolveCopyrightYears added in v1.65.0 

func ResolveCopyrightYears() string

Types

type Cmd 

type Cmd interface {
	// Name should return the name of the command as it needs to be entered on the command line.
	Name() string
	// Usage should return a description of what the command does.
	Usage() string
	// Run will be called to run the command. It will be passed a fresh command line created from the command line that
	// was parsed to determine this command would be run, along with the arguments that have not yet been consumed. The
	// first argument, much like an application called from main, will be the name of the command.
	Run(cmdLine *CmdLine, args []string) error
}

Cmd represents a sub-command available on the command-line.

type CmdLine 

type CmdLine struct {
	// UsageSuffix, if set, will be appended to the 'Usage: ' line of the output.
	UsageSuffix string
	// Description, if set, will be inserted after the program identity section, before the usage.
	Description string
	// UsageTrailer, if set, will be appended to the end of the usage output.
	UsageTrailer string
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

CmdLine holds information about the command line.

func New 

func New(includeDefaultOptions bool) *CmdLine

New creates a new CmdLine. If 'includeDefaultOptions' is true, help (-h, --help) and version (-v, --version, along with hidden -V, --Version for long variants) options will be added, otherwise, only the help options will be added, although they will be hidden.
