Implementations

impl CliRouter

pub fn new() -> Self

pub fn add<T: CliCommand + Default + 'static>( &mut self, alias: &str, shortcuts: Vec<&str>, value_flags: Vec<&str>, )

Link a struct / impl that inherits the CliRouter trait to a command name. Takes three arguments, the full name of the command, a vector of available shortcuts, and a vector of long-form flags (prefixed with dashes (–)) for which a value is expected.

pub fn lookup(&self) -> (&Box<dyn CliCommand>, CliRequest)

Taking arguments passed via command line into account, checks all routes that were added and tries to determine the correct impl to execute. This function is automatically executed by the cli_run() function and should never be manually executed.

pub fn add_category(&mut self, alias: &str, name: &str, description: &str)

Add a new top level category that contains CLI commands. Used for organization and to display proper help screens.
