// This module defines the set of command line arguments that ripgrep supports,
// including some light validation.
//
// This module is purposely written in a bare-bones way, since it is included
// in ripgrep's build.rs file as a way to generate completion files for common
// shells.
//
// The only other place that ripgrep deals with clap is in src/args.rs, which
// is where we read clap's configuration from the end user's arguments and turn
// it into a ripgrep-specific configuration type that is not coupled with clap.

const ABOUT: &str = "
ripgrep (rg) recursively searches your current directory for a regex pattern.
By default, ripgrep will respect your `.gitignore` and automatically skip
hidden files/directories and binary files.

ripgrep's regex engine uses finite automata and guarantees linear time
searching. Because of this, features like backreferences and arbitrary
lookaround are not supported.

ripgrep supports configuration files. Set RIPGREP_CONFIG_PATH to a
configuration file. The file can specify one shell argument per line. Lines
starting with '#' are ignored. For more details, see the man page or the
README.

provided multiple times. Settings are applied iteratively. Colors are limited
to one of eight choices: red, blue, green, cyan, magenta, yellow, white and
black. Styles are limited to nobold, bold, nointense, intense, nounderline
or underline.

The format of the flag is `{type}:{attribute}:{value}`. `{type}` should be
one of path, line, column or match. `{attribute}` can be fg, bg or style.
`{value}` is either a color (for fg and bg) or a text style. A special format,
`{type}:none`, will clear all color settings for `{type}`.

For example, the following command will change the match color to magenta and
the background color for line numbers to yellow:

    rg --colors 'match:fg:magenta' --colors 'line:bg:yellow' foo.

Extended colors can be used for `{value}` when the terminal supports ANSI color
sequences. These are specified as either 'x' (256-color) or 'x,x,x' (24-bit
truecolor) where x is a number between 0 and 255 inclusive. x may be given as
a normal decimal number or a hexadecimal number, which is prefixed by `0x`.

For example, the following command will change the match background color to
that represented by the rgb value (0,128,255):

    rg --colors 'match:bg:0,128,255'

or, equivalently,

    rg --colors 'match:bg:0x0,0x80,0xFF'

    WARNING: When this flag is set, ripgrep will unconditionally spawn a
    process for every file that is searched. Therefore, this can incur an
    unnecessarily large performance penalty if you don't otherwise need the
    flexibility offered by this flag.

A preprocessor is not run when ripgrep is searching stdin.

When searching over sets of files that may require one of several decoders
as preprocessors, COMMAND should be a wrapper program or script which first
classifies FILE based on magic numbers/content or based on the FILE name and
then dispatches to an appropriate preprocessor. Each COMMAND also has its
standard input connected to FILE for convenience.

For example, a shell script for COMMAND might look like:

    case \"$1\" in
    *.pdf)
        exec pdftotext \"$1\" -
        ;;
    *)
        case $(file \"$1\") in

            exec cat
            ;;
        esac
        ;;
    esac

The above script uses `pdftotext` to convert a PDF file to plain text. For
all other files, the script uses the `file` utility to sniff the type of the
file based on its contents. If it is a compressed file in the Zstandard format,
then `pzstd` is used to decompress the contents to stdout.

Search binary files as if they were text. When this flag is present, ripgrep's
binary file detection is disabled. This means that when a binary file is
searched, its contents may be printed if there is a match. This may cause
escape codes to be printed that alter the behavior of your terminal.

When binary file detection is enabled it is imperfect. In general, it uses
a simple heuristic. If a NUL byte is seen during search, then the file is
considered binary and search stops (unless this flag is present).

Note that when the `-u/--unrestricted` flag is provided for a third time, then
this flag is automatically enabled.

This flag can be disabled with --no-text.

Example:

--type-add can also be used to include rules from other types with the special
include directive. The include directive permits specifying one or more other
type names (separated by a comma) that have been defined and its rules will
automatically be imported into the type specified. For example, to create a
type called src that matches C++, Python and Markdown files, one can use:

    --type-add 'src:include:cpp,py,md'

Additional glob rules can still be added to the src type by using the
--type-add flag again:

    --type-add 'src:include:cpp,py,md' --type-add 'src:*.foo'

Note that type names must consist only of Unicode letters or numbers.
Punctuation characters are not allowed.
