Struct Cli 

pub struct Cli {
    pub command: Commands,
    pub root: Option<PathBuf>,
    pub log_level: LogLevel,
    pub format: OutputFormatArg,
    pub no_color: bool,
    pub config: Option<PathBuf>,
}

Workspace Tools - Changeset-based version management.

This CLI provides comprehensive tools for managing Node.js workspaces using a changeset-based workflow. It supports both single-package and monorepo projects with independent or unified versioning strategies.

Global Options

All global options apply to ALL subcommands and control behavior across the entire application:

• --root: Changes working directory before executing commands
• --log-level: Controls logging verbosity (stderr only)
• --format: Controls output format (stdout only)
• --no-color: Disables ANSI colors in output and logs
• --config: Override default config file location

Stream Separation

The CLI maintains strict separation between:

• stderr: Logs only (controlled by --log-level)
• stdout: Command output only (controlled by --format)

This ensures JSON output is never contaminated with logs, enabling reliable piping and parsing in scripts.

Examples

# Initialize a new project
workspace init

# Add a changeset
workspace changeset add

# Preview version bump
workspace bump --dry-run

# JSON output with no logs (clean JSON for automation)
workspace --format json --log-level silent bump --dry-run

# Debug logging with text output
workspace --log-level debug changeset list

Fields

command: Commands

Subcommand to execute.

root: Option<PathBuf>

Project root directory.

Changes working directory before executing the command. All file operations will be relative to this path.

Default: Current directory

log_level: LogLevel

Logging level.

Controls verbosity of operation logs written to stderr. Does NOT affect command output (stdout).

Levels:

• silent: No logs at all
• error: Only critical errors
• warn: Errors + warnings
• info: General progress (default)
• debug: Detailed operations
• trace: Very verbose debugging

Default: info

format: OutputFormatArg

Output format.

Controls format of command output written to stdout. Does NOT affect logging (stderr).

Formats:

• human: Human-readable with colors and tables (default)
• json: Pretty-printed JSON
• json-compact: Compact JSON (single line)
• quiet: Minimal output

Default: human

no_color: bool

Disable colored output.

Removes ANSI color codes from both logs (stderr) and output (stdout). Also respects the NO_COLOR environment variable.

Useful for CI/CD environments and file redirection.

config: Option<PathBuf>

Path to config file.

Override default config file location. Path can be relative or absolute.

Default: Auto-detect (.changesets.{toml,json,yaml,yml})

Implementations

impl Cli

pub const fn log_level(&self) -> LogLevel

Returns the log level.

Examples

use clap::Parser;
use sublime_cli_tools::cli::{Cli, LogLevel};

let cli = Cli::parse_from(["workspace", "--log-level", "debug", "version"]);
assert_eq!(cli.log_level(), LogLevel::Debug);

pub const fn output_format(&self) -> OutputFormat

Returns the output format.

Examples

use clap::Parser;
use sublime_cli_tools::cli::Cli;
use sublime_cli_tools::output::OutputFormat;

let cli = Cli::parse_from(["workspace", "--format", "json", "version"]);
assert_eq!(cli.output_format(), OutputFormat::Json);

pub fn is_color_disabled(&self) -> bool

Returns whether color output is disabled.

Also checks the NO_COLOR environment variable.

Examples

use clap::Parser;
use sublime_cli_tools::cli::Cli;

let cli = Cli::parse_from(["workspace", "--no-color", "version"]);
assert!(cli.is_color_disabled());

pub const fn root(&self) -> Option<&PathBuf>

Returns the root directory.

Examples

use clap::Parser;
use sublime_cli_tools::cli::Cli;
use std::path::PathBuf;

let cli = Cli::parse_from(["workspace", "--root", "/tmp", "version"]);
assert_eq!(cli.root(), Some(&PathBuf::from("/tmp")));

pub const fn config_path(&self) -> Option<&PathBuf>

Returns the config file path.

Examples

use clap::Parser;
use sublime_cli_tools::cli::Cli;
use std::path::PathBuf;

let cli = Cli::parse_from(["workspace", "--config", "custom.toml", "version"]);
assert_eq!(cli.config_path(), Some(&PathBuf::from("custom.toml")));
