Overview

Class used to gather together the CLI specification, and execute it

The standard usage pattern is as follows:

PROGRAM_VERSION = [ 0, 1, 2 ]

program_options = {}

climate = LibCLImate::Climate.new do |cl|

  cl.add_flag('--verbose', alias: '-v', help: 'Makes program output verbose') { program_options[:verbose] = true }

  cl.add_option('--flavour', alias: '-f', help: 'Specifies the flavour') do |o, a|

    program_options[:flavour] = check_flavour(o.value) or cl.abort "Invalid flavour '#{o.value}'; use --help for usage"
  end

  cl.usage_values = '<value-1> [ ... <value-N> ]'

  cl.info_lines = [

    'ACME CLI program (using libCLImate)',
    :version,
    'An example program',
  ]
end

#initialize(options = {}) {|_self| ... } ⇒ Climate

Creates an instance of the Climate class.

Signature

  • Parameters:

    • options:

      An options hash, containing any of the following options.

      (boolean) Prevents the use of the

      CLASP::Flag.Version flag-specification

    • :program_name

      (::String) An explicit program-name, which is

      inferred from $0 if this is nil

    • :version

      A version specification. If not specified, this is

      inferred

    • :version_context

      Object or class that defines a context for

      searching the version. Ignored if :version is specified
