PHP Command Line Tools
A collection of functions and classes to assist with command line development.
Requirements
- PHP >= 5.3
Function List
cli\out($msg, ...)cli\out_padded($msg, ...)cli\err($msg, ...)cli\line($msg = '', ...)cli\input()cli\prompt($question, $default = false, $marker = ':')cli\choose($question, $choices = 'yn', $default = 'n')cli\menu($items, $default = false, $title = 'Choose an Item')
Progress Indicators
cli\notifier\Dots($msg, $dots = 3, $interval = 100)cli\notifier\Spinner($msg, $interval = 100)cli\progress\Bar($msg, $total, $interval = 100)
Tabular Display
cli\Table::__construct(array $headers = null, array $rows = null)cli\Table::setHeaders(array $headers)cli\Table::setRows(array $rows)cli\Table::setRenderer(cli\table\Renderer $renderer)cli\Table::addRow(array $row)cli\Table::sort($column)cli\Table::display()
The display function will detect if output is piped and, if it is, render a tab delimited table instead of the ASCII table rendered for visual display.
You can also explicitly set the renderer used by calling cli\Table::setRenderer() and giving it an instance of one
of the concrete cli\table\Renderer classes.
Tree Display
cli\Tree::__construct()cli\Tree::setData(array $data)cli\Tree::setRenderer(cli\tree\Renderer $renderer)cli\Tree::render()cli\Tree::display()
Argument Parser
Argument parsing uses a simple framework for taking a list of command line arguments,
usually straight from $_SERVER['argv'], and parses the input against a set of
defined rules.
Check example_args.php for an example.
Usage
See example.php for examples.
Todo
