  end
end

#example(description, command) ⇒ Object

Add a usage example for this command.

Usage examples are later displayed in help documentation created by the help formatters.

Examples

command :something do |c|
  c.example "Should do something", "my_command something"
end

def inspect
  "<Commander::Command:#{name}>"
end

#option(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Add an option.

Options are parsed via OptionParser so view it for additional usage documentation. A block may optionally be passed to handle the option, otherwise the options struct seen below contains the results of this option. This handles common formats such as:

-h, --help          options.help           # => bool
--[no-]feature      options.feature        # => bool
--large-switch      options.large_switch   # => bool
--file FILE         options.file           # => file passed
--list WORDS        options.list           # => array
--date [DATE]       options.date           # => date or nil when optional argument not set

Examples

command :something do |c|
  c.option '--recursive', 'Do something recursively'
  c.option '--file FILE', 'Specify a file'
  c.option('--info', 'Display info') { puts "handle with block" }
  c.option '--[no-]feature', 'With or without feature'
  c.option '--list FILES', Array, 'List the files specified'

  c.when_called do |args, options|
    do_something_recursively if options.recursive
    do_something_with_file options.file if options.file
  end
end

Help Formatters

This method also parses the arguments passed in order to determine which were switches, and which were descriptions for the option which can later be used within help formatters using option and option.

Input Parsing

Since Commander utilizes OptionParser you can pre-parse and evaluate option arguments. Simply require ‘optparse/time’, or ‘optparse/date’, as these objects must respond to #parse.

c.option '--time TIME', Time
c.option '--date [DATE]', Date

def option(*args, &block)
  switches, description = Runner.separate_switches_from_description(*args)
  proc = block || option_proc(switches)
  @options << {
    args: args,
    proc: proc,
    switches: switches,
    description: description,
  }
end

#option_proc(switches) ⇒ Object

Option proxy proc used when a block is not explicitly passed via the #option method. This allows commander to auto-populate and work with option values.

# File 'lib/commander/command.rb', line 211

def option_proc(switches)
  ->(value) { proxy_options << [Runner.switch_to_sym(switches.last), value] }
end

#parse_options_and_call_procs(*args) ⇒ Object

Parses options and calls associated procs, returning the arguments remaining.

  return args if args.empty?

  # empty proxy_options before populating via OptionParser
  # prevents duplication of options if the command is run twice
  proxy_options.clear
  @options.each_with_object(OptionParser.new) do |option, opts|
    opts.on(*option[:args], &option[:proc])
    opts
  end.parse! args
end

#proxy_option_struct ⇒ Object

Creates an Options instance populated with the option values collected by the #option_proc.

    value = true if value.nil?
    options.__send__ :"#{option}=", value
    options
  end
end

#run(*args) ⇒ Object

Run the command with args.

  • parses options, call option blocks

  • invokes when_called proc

def run(*args)
  call parse_options_and_call_procs(*args)
end

#when_called(*args, &block) ⇒ Object Also known as: action

Handle execution of command. The handler may be a class, object, or block (see examples below).

Examples

# Simple block handling
c.when_called do |args, options|
   # do something
end

# Create inst of Something and pass args / options
c.when_called MyLib::Command::Something

# Create inst of Something and use arbitrary method
 c.when_called MyLib::Command::Something, :some_method

# Pass an object to handle callback (requires method symbol)
c.when_called SomeObject, :some_method
