# cargo-cli
Create a command line interface binary with some common dependencies (([`clap`][clap] ||
[`docopt`][docopt]) and [`error_chain`][error_chain])

# Installation
`cargo install cargo-cli`

# Usage
In general, this is extension is used in the same manner as you would use `cargo new --bin`.
Most of the command line arguments supported by `cargo new` are supported by `cargo cli` and are
actually passed through to `cargo new`.

In addition, `cargo cli` supports the following options:

* `arg_parser`: Specify the argument parser to use in the generated output. [default: clap]  [values: clap, docopt]
* `license`: Specify licensing to include in the generated output. [default: both]  [values: both, mit, apache, none]
* `no-readme`: Turn off README.md generation.
* `no-latest`: Turn off the crates.io query for the latest version (use defaults).
