//! **Clargs is a library for parsing command-line arguments.** //! //! Parsing command-line arguments requires quite a bit of boilerplate code. //! This library remedies that for rust projects. //! //! Before parsing an argument list a `ParsingConfig` object must be configured. //! It controls which features are enabled and how certain edge cases should be handled. //! It is also used to add flags, parameters, subcommands and specify which parameters are required and other extra info. //! Once configured, it can be used with the `parse` function. //! //! A flag is an option that has a name and does not require an argument. //! A named parameter is an option that has a name and that does require an argument. //! An unnamed parameter is an option that is neither a flag, a named parameter, nor an argument to a named parameter. //! An alias maps one name to an option that already has another name. //! //! Options are identified by the name they were registered with. //! Aliases are only used during interpretation of the command-line arguments. //! As a result of this, they will never occur in the results or an error after parsing. //! //! All option names and aliases can contain only lower and uppercase letters and hyphens. //! //! Note that the first argument is always interpreted as the name of the command (or subcommand) which was invoked. mod parsing_error; mod parsing_config; mod parsed_args; mod parse; pub use self::parsing_error::*; pub use self::parsing_config::*; pub use self::parsed_args::*; pub use self::parse::*;
