argi

Argument parsing for the future 🚀

Features

• Macro-based approach, providing an intuitive way to layout a cli
• Rich auto-help generation, styling based off of python's click library
• Zero dependencies
• Speedy compile times
• Low binary bloat

This library is intended to be a replacement for both heavier structopt/clap-based interfaces due to amount of features contained within, as well as slim ones based upon pico-args due to the small workflow and compilation footprint. As this crate isn't fully battle-tested yet, smaller programs are a prime contender for usage with this library.

Usage

Place the following into your Cargo.toml file:

toml [dependencies] argi = "0.1.0-beta.5"

Example

Complete demo (help page):

```rust use argi::{cli, data};

fn main() { cli!( help: "Imaginary webapp program, allowing simple tasks", launch: { help: "Launches instance to given address", run: (|ctx, | todo!("Launch at port {:?}", data!(ctx => --port))), --db [url]: { help: "Database URL" }, --bind [url]: { help: "Binding address" }, --port [port]: { help: "Port to hook onto" }, }, delete [int?]: { help: "Deletes an optional id from the database", run: (|, data| todo!("Delete {:?}", data)) } ) .launch(); } ```
