Module: AwsMskIamSaslSigner::ThorExt::Start

Included in:
CLI
Defined in:
lib/aws-msk-iam-sasl-signer/thor_ext.rb

Overview

Configures Thor to behave more like a typical CLI, with better help and error handling.

  • Passing -h or –help to a command will show help for that command.

  • Unrecognized options will be treated as errors (instead of being silently ignored).

  • Error messages will be printed in red to stderr, without stack trace.

  • Full stack traces can be enabled by setting the VERBOSE environment variable.

  • Errors will cause Thor to exit with a non-zero status.

To take advantage of this behavior, your CLI should subclass Thor and extend this module.

class CLI < Thor
  extend ThorExt::Start
end

Start your CLI with:

CLI.start

In tests, prevent Kernel.exit from being called when an error occurs, like this:

CLI.start(args, exit_on_failure: false)
