clap 3.0.0-beta.2

A simple to use, efficient, and full-featured Command Line Argument Parser
Documentation
//! This module contains traits that are usable with the `#[derive(...)].`
//! macros in [`clap_derive`].

use crate::{App, ArgMatches, Error};

use std::ffi::OsString;

/// The primary one-stop-shop trait used to create an instance of a `clap`
/// [`App`], conduct the parsing, and turn the resulting [`ArgMatches`] back
/// into concrete instance of the user struct.
///
/// This trait is primarily a convenience on top of [`FromArgMatches`] +
/// [`IntoApp`] which uses those two underlying traits to build the two
/// fundamental functions `parse` which uses the `std::env::args_os` iterator,
/// and `parse_from` which allows the consumer to supply the iterator (along
/// with fallible options for each).
///
/// # Examples
///
/// The following example creates a `Context` struct that would be used
/// throughout the application representing the normalized values coming from
/// the CLI.
///
/// ```rust
/// # use clap::{Clap};
/// /// My super CLI
/// #[derive(Clap)]
/// #[clap(name = "demo")]
/// struct Context {
///     /// More verbose output
///     #[clap(long)]
///     verbose: bool,
///     /// An optional name
///     #[clap(short, long)]
///     name: Option<String>,
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The equivilant [`App`] struct + `From` implementation:
///
/// ```rust
/// # use clap::{App, Arg, ArgMatches};
/// App::new("demo")
///     .about("My super CLI")
///     .arg(Arg::new("verbose")
///         .long("verbose")
///         .about("More verbose output"))
///     .arg(Arg::new("name")
///         .long("name")
///         .long("n")
///         .about("An optional name")
///         .takes_value(true));
///
/// struct Context {
///     verbose: bool,
///     name: Option<String>,
/// }
///
/// impl From<ArgMatches> for Context {
///     fn from(m: ArgMatches) -> Self {
///         Context {
///             verbose: m.is_present("verbose"),
///             name: m.value_of("name").map(|n| n.to_owned()),
///         }
