When you get it wrong, we are here to help. Command-Line parsing for C# that is more helpful when the arguments are wrong.
Don't you hate using an application that just prints USAGE when you type something wrong? Isn't is painful when you have to read an entire string of command-line arguments to find your mistake? As a developer, do you get sick of parsing arguments to give users better feedback? Well, do I have a solution for you!
The goals of this library are to:
- Make it clear which argument is ill-formatted
- Easily print out which argument(s) is/are missing values
- Easily print out which arguments don't exist
- Easily print out full USAGE based on configuration
- In code, It should get the job done and get out of your way
- Support a flexible choice between how users want to format their arguments
- flags support 0, 1, or many argument values
- formats should support space, colon and equals delimiters
- flags should work with either - or / for short, and -- for long arguments
- eg -d: /d: -d= /d= /d value -d -abcd --dflag --dflag=
- Support optional leading mode-name argument, as well as trailing argument(s) (where applicable)
###Stretch Goals: ###
- Make Porting easy
- Build an adapter for docopt usage.txt files
- Build a fluent adapter similar to some cli frameworks
- Build an attributes-driven adapter similar to some cli frameworks
- Meet as much of the syntax standards as possible out of the box, at the same time
- Support app modes is a convenient way, with seperate argument configurations.
