A flexible and typed getopt tools
Documentation
# aopt

A flexible and typed getopt like command line framwork for rust.

## Features

- Option support

    - Prefixed option support, such as `-f`, `--flag`, `-flag` or `--/flag`.

    - Option value support, such as `-f 42`, `--flag 3.14` or `--flag=foo`.

    - Multiple style option support, such as `-f 42`, `-f=42` or `-f42`.

    - Combing style support, such as `-abc` is same as `-a` `-b` `-c`.

    - Positional arguments support, see [`Index`]crate::opt::Index.

    - Special option `-` and `--` support, see [`Stop`]crate::value::Stop and [`Stdin`]std::io::Stdin.

    - Type support, you can validator the value of option during parsing.

    See the built-in option type [`AOpt`]crate::opt::AOpt

- Non UTF8 arguments support

- Callback support

    Can set callback which will called during parsing,
    see [`Parser`]crate::parser::Parser and [`Invoker`]crate::ctx::Invoker.

- Value support

    By default aopt will saving the raw value and parsed value in [`ValStorer`]crate::value::ValStorer.

- Policy support

    - [`DelayPolicy`]crate::parser::DelayPolicy process positional arguments before any other option.

    - [`FwdPolicy`]crate::parser::FwdPolicy process options before positional arguments.

    - [`PrePolicy`]crate::parser::PrePolicy can help you process the options partial.

- Derive support

    - Checkout [`cote`]https://docs.rs/cote/latest/cote/index.html crate for derive support and help message generate.

## Setup 

`cargo add aopt`

### `sync` feature

If you want the utils of current crate implement `Send` and `Sync`, you can enable `sync` feature.

## Example

- Using [`AFwdParser`]crate::ext::AFwdParser parsing process the command line.

```no_run
use aopt::prelude::*;
use std::ops::Deref;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let mut parser = AFwdParser::default();

    parser.validator_mut().add_prefix("+");
    parser.add_opt("--depth=i")?.set_value_t(0i64); // int option
    parser.add_opt("-/r=b")?; // boolean flag
    parser
        .add_opt("--source=s!")? // ! means the option is force required
        .add_alias("+S")
        .on(
            |set: &mut ASet, _: &mut ASer, mut val: ctx::Value<String>| {
                let depth: &i64 = set["--depth"].val()?;
                println!("Adding location({}) with depth({})", val.deref(), depth);
                Ok(Some((val.take(), *depth)))
            },
        )?;
    parser.add_opt("destination=p!@-0")?.on(
        |_: &mut ASet, _: &mut ASer, mut val: ctx::Value<String>| {
            println!("Save destination location({})", val.deref());
            Ok(Some(val.take()))
        },
    )?;
    parser.add_opt("main=m")?.on(
        |set: &mut ASet, _: &mut ASer, mut val: ctx::Value<String>| {
            let src = set["--source"].vals::<(String, i64)>()?;
            let dest: &String = set["destination"].val()?;

            for (item, depth) in src {
                println!(
                    "Application {} will copy location({item}, depth={depth}) to destination({})",
                    val.deref(),
                    dest
                );
            }
            Ok(Some(val.take()))
        },
    )?;
    parser.parse_env()?.unwrap();

    Ok(())
}
```

- Using [`getopt!`]crate::getopt parsing multiple sub command.

```no_run
use aopt::prelude::*;
use aopt::Error;
use std::ops::Deref;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let mut list = AFwdParser::default();
    let mut update = AFwdParser::default();
    let mut install = AFwdParser::default();

    list.add_opt("list=c")?;
    list.add_opt("ls=c")?;
    list.add_opt("-debug=b")?;
    list.add_opt("-force=b")?.add_alias("-f");
    list.add_opt("-local-only=b")?.add_alias("-l");
    list.add_opt("-source".infer::<String>())?
        .add_alias("-s")
        .set_value(String::from("lib.rs"));
    list.add_opt("main=m")?
        .fallback(|set: &mut ASet, _: &mut ASer| {
            println!(
                "invoke list command: debug={:?}, force={:?}, local-only={:?}, source={:?}",
                set["-debug"].val::<bool>()?,

                set["-local-only"].val::<bool>()?,
                set["-source"].val::<String>()?,
            );
            Ok(None::<()>)
        })?;

    update.add_opt("update=c")?;
    update.add_opt("up=c")?;
    update.add_opt("-debug=b")?;
    update.add_opt("-force=b")?.add_alias("-f");
    update.add_opt("-source=s")?.add_alias("-s");
    update
        .add_opt("main=m")?
        .on(|set: &mut ASet, _: &mut ASer| {
            println!(
                "invoke update command: debug={:?}, force={:?}, source={:?}",
                set["-debug"].val::<bool>()?,
                set["-force"].val::<bool>()?,
                set["-source"].val::<String>()?,
            );
            Ok(Some(true))
        })?;

    install.add_opt("install=c")?;
    install.add_opt("in=c")?;
    install.add_opt("-debug=b")?;
    install.add_opt("-/override=b")?.add_alias("-/o");
    install.add_opt("-source=s")?.add_alias("-s");
    install.add_opt("name=p!@2")?.on(
        |set: &mut ASet, _: &mut ASer, mut val: ctx::Value<String>| {
            if val.deref() == "software" {
                println!(
                    "invoke install command: debug={:?}, override={:?}, source={:?}",
                    set["-debug"].val::<bool>()?,
                    set["-/override"].val::<bool>()?,
                    set["-source"].val::<String>()?,
                );
                Ok(Some(val.take()))
            } else {
                Err(aopt::raise_error!("command not matched"))
            }
        },
    )?;

    getopt!(Args::from_env(), &mut list, &mut update, &mut install)?;
    Ok(())
}
```
