Description : reflection based CLI (command line interface) generator for Golang (library)
recli - Reflection based CLI (command line interface) generator for
Golang GoDoc (https://godoc.org/github.com/AudriusButkevicius/recli)
.
Recli is useful for generating command line clients for your application
configuration that is stored in a Go struct. For a given struct, builds a set
of urfave/cli (https://github.com/urfave/cli) commands which allows you to
modify it from the command line.
.
Features:
• Nested struct support
• Enum/Custom complex type support via MarshalText/UnmarshalText
• Slice support, including complex types
• Slice indexing by struct field
• Map support
• Default primitive value support when adding items to slices
.
Known limitations:
• Adding new struct to a slice only allows setting primitive fields (use
add-json as a work-around)
• Only primitive types supported for map keys and values
• No defaults for mapsExamples
Recli is a new dependency of Syncthing 1.18.0 and newer.
I plan to maintain it on the Debian Go Packaging Team. As it's my
first Golang package (IIRC :$) it might be nice to have someone check
that it really was as easy to correctly package as dh-make-golang made
it seem. Thank you for excellent tooling, btw! :-)
As far as I can tell, the package just needs to close this yet-to-be-created ITP bug, be pushed to DGPT namespace on salsa, and uploaded.
Regards,
Nicholas
