.method_at_least_one(*args, &block) ⇒ Object Also known as: at_least_one

Adds and declares option group for required at least one of options in the block of arguments. You can declare options as the outside of the block.

If :for is given as option, it allows you to change the options from a previous defined command.

Parameters

Array

options<Hash>

:for is applied for previous defined command.

Examples

at_least_one do
  option :one
  option :two
end

Or

option :one
option :two
at_least_one :one, :two

If you do not give “–one” and “–two” AtLeastOneRequiredArgumentError will be raised.

You can use at_least_one and exclusive at the same time.

exclusive do
  at_least_one do
    option :one
    option :two
  end
end

Then it is required either only one of “–one” or “–two”.

end

.method_exclusive(*args, &block) ⇒ Object Also known as: exclusive

Adds and declares option group for exclusive options in the block and arguments. You can declare options as the outside of the block.

If :for is given as option, it allows you to change the options from a previous defined command.

Parameters

Array

options<Hash>

:for is applied for previous defined command.

Examples

exclusive do
  option :one
  option :two
end

Or

option :one
option :two
exclusive :one, :two

If you give “–one” and “–two” at the same time ExclusiveArgumentsError will be raised.

end

.method_option(name, options = {}) ⇒ Object Also known as: option

Adds an option to the set of method options. If :for is given as option, it allows you to change the options from a previous defined command.

def previous_command
  # magic
end

method_option :foo, :for => :previous_command

def next_command
  # magic
end

Parameters

name<Symbol>

The name of the argument.

options<Hash>

Described below.

.register(klass, subcommand_name, usage, description, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Registers another Thor subclass as a command.

Parameters

klass<Class>

end

.stop_on_unknown_option!(*command_names) ⇒ Object

Stop parsing of options as soon as an unknown option or a regular argument is encountered. All remaining arguments are passed to the command. This is useful if you have a command that can receive arbitrary additional options, and where those additional options should not be handled by Thor.

Example

To better understand how this is useful, let’s consider a command that calls an external command. A user may want to pass arbitrary options and arguments to that command. The command itself also accepts some options, which should be handled by Thor.

class_option "verbose",  :type => :boolean
stop_on_unknown_option! :exec
check_unknown_options!  :except => :exec

desc "exec", "Run a shell command"
def exec(*args)
  puts "diagnostic output" if options[:verbose]
  Kernel.exec(*args)
end

Here exec can be called with --verbose to get diagnostic output, e.g.:

$ thor exec --verbose echo foo
diagnostic output
foo

But if --verbose is given after echo, it is passed to echo instead:

$ thor exec echo --verbose foo
--verbose foo

Parameters

Symbol …

A list of commands that should be affected.
