NAME

Getopt::Compact::WithCmd - sub-command friendly, like Getopt::Compact

SYNOPSIS

inside foo.pl:

use Getopt::Compact::WithCmd;

my $go = Getopt::Compact::WithCmd->new(
   name          => 'foo',
   version       => '0.1',
   args          => 'FILE',
   global_struct => [
      [ [qw/f force/], 'force overwrite', '!', \my $force ],
   ],
   command_struct => {
      get => {
          options    => [
              [ [qw/d dir/], 'dest dir', '=s', undef, { default => '.' } ],
              [ [qw/o output/], 'output file name', '=s', undef, { required => 1 }],
          ],
          desc        => 'get file from url',
          args        => 'url',
          other_usage => 'blah blah blah',
      },
      remove => {
          ...
      }
   },
);

my $opts = $go->opts;
my $cmd  = $go->command;

if ($cmd eq 'get') {
    my $url = shift @ARGV;
}

how will be like this:

$ ./foo.pl -f get -o bar.html http://example.com/

usage, running the command './foo.pl -x' results in the following output:

$ ./foo.pl -x
Unknown option: x
foo v0.1
usage: hoge.pl [options] COMMAND FILE

options:
   -h, --help    This help message
   -f, --force   Force overwrite

Implemented commands are:
   get   Get file from url

See 'hoge.pl help COMMAND' for more information on a specific command.

in addition, running the command './foo.pl get' results in the following output:

$ ./foo.pl get
`--output` option must be specified
foo v0.1
usage: hoge.pl COMMAND [options] url

options:
   -h, --help     This help message
   -d, --dir      Dest dir
   -o, --output   Output file name

blah blah blah

DESCRIPTION

Getopt::Compact::WithCmd is yet another Getopt::* module. This module is respected Getopt::Compact. This module is you can define of git-like option. In addition, usage can be set at the same time.

METHODS

new(%args)

Create an object. The option most Getopt::Compact compatible. But struct is cannot use.

The new %args are:

global_struct($arrayref)

This option is sets common options across commands. This option value is Getopt::Compact compatible. In addition, extended to other values can be set.

use Getopt::Compact::WithCmd;
my $go = Getopt::Compact::WithCmd->new(
    global_struct => [
        [ $name_spec_arrayref, $description_scalar, $argument_spec_scalar, \$destination_scalar, $opt_hashref],
        [ ... ]
    ],
);

$opt_hasref are:

{
    default  => $value, # default value
    required => $bool,
}
command_struct($hashref)

This option is sets sub-command and options.

use Getopt::Compact::WithCmd;
my $go = Getopt::Compact::WithCmd->new(
    command_struct => {
        $command => {
            options        => $options,
            args           => $args,
            desc           => $description,
            other_usage    => $other_usage,
            command_struct => $command_struct,
        },
    },
);

$options

This value is compatible to global_struct.

$args

command args.

$description

command description.

$other_usage

other usage message. be added to the end of the usage message.

$command_struct

support nesting.

use Getopt::Compact::WithCmd;
my $go = Getopt::Compact::WithCmd->new(
    command_struct => {
        $command => {
            options        => $options,
            args           => $args,
            desc           => $description,
            other_usage    => $other_usage,
            command_struct => {
                $sub_command => {
                    options => ...
                },
            },
        },
    },
);

# will run cmd:
$ ./foo.pl $command $sub_command ...

new_from_array(\@myopts, %args);

new_from_array can be used to parse options from an arbitrary array.

$go = Getopt::Compact::With->new_from_array(\@myopts, ...);

opts

Returns a hashref of options keyed by option name. Return value is merged global options and command options.

command

Gets sub-command name.

# inside foo.pl
use Getopt::Compact::WithCmd;

my $go = Getopt::Compact::WithCmd->new(
   command_struct => {
      bar => {},
   },
);

print "command: ", $go->command, "\n";

# running the command
$ ./foo.pl bar
bar

status

This is a true value if the command line was processed successfully. Otherwise it returns a false result.

$go->status ? "success" : "fail";

is_success

Alias of status

$go->is_success # == $go->status

usage

Gets usage message.

my $message = $go->usage;
my $message = $go->usage($target_command_name); # must be implemented command.

show_usage

$go->show_usage;
$go->show_usage($target_command_name);

pod2usage
