Expand description
A matched command line value.
The value can be a boolean, counted repetition, a plain string or a list of strings.
The various as_{bool,count,str,vec}
methods provide convenient access
to values without destructuring manually.
Variants
Switch(bool)
A boolean value from a flag that has no argument.
The presence of a flag means true
and the absence of a flag
means false
.
Counted(u64)
The number of occurrences of a repeated flag.
Plain(Option<String>)
A positional or flag argument.
This is None
when the positional argument or flag is not present.
Note that it is possible to have Some("")
for a present but empty
argument.
List(Vec<String>)
A List of positional or flag arguments.
This list may be empty when no arguments or flags are present.
Implementations
sourceimpl Value
impl Value
sourcepub fn as_bool(&self) -> bool
pub fn as_bool(&self) -> bool
Returns the value as a bool.
Counted repetitions are false
if 0
and true
otherwise.
Plain strings are true
if present and false
otherwise.
Lists are true
if non-empty and false
otherwise.
sourcepub fn as_count(&self) -> u64
pub fn as_count(&self) -> u64
Returns the value as a count of the number of times it occurred.
Booleans are 1
if true
and 0
otherwise.
Plain strings are 1
if present and 0
otherwise.
Lists correspond to its length.
