commander ↑

The simplest possible command line subcommand tool. It provides about half of what you want and none of what you don’t. If you don’t like it, don’t use it.

Example: ↑

basic executable: ↑

#!/usr/bin/env ruby -rubygems
require 'commandant'
include Commandant

command :hello do
  puts "Hello, World!"
end

command :argprint do |args| # Array of arguments, like ARGV
  puts args
end

run

Provides: ↑

  • basic hello

  • basic argprint foo bar bazz

Note on Patches/Pull Requests ↑

  • Fork the project.

  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.

  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
