+Package flags provides an extensive command line option parser.
+The flags package is similar in functionality to the go built-in flag package
+but provides more options and uses reflection to provide a convenient and
+succinct way of specifying command line options.
+
+
+Supported features
+
+The following features are supported in go-flags:
+
+ Options with short names (-v)
+ Options with long names (--verbose)
+ Options with and without arguments (bool v.s. other type)
+ Options with optional arguments and default values
+ Option default values from ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES, including slice and map values
+ Multiple option groups each containing a set of options
+ Generate and print well-formatted help message
+ Passing remaining command line arguments after -- (optional)
+ Ignoring unknown command line options (optional)
+ Supports -I/usr/include -I=/usr/include -I /usr/include option argument specification
+ Supports multiple short options -aux
+ Supports all primitive go types (string, int{8..64}, uint{8..64}, float)
+ Supports same option multiple times (can store in slice or last option counts)
+ Supports maps
+ Supports function callbacks
+ Supports namespaces for (nested) option groups
+
+Additional features specific to Windows:
+ Options with short names (/v)
+ Options with long names (/verbose)
+ Windows-style options with arguments use a colon as the delimiter
+ Modify generated help message with Windows-style / options
+ Windows style options can be disabled at build time using the "forceposix"
+ build tag
+
+
+Basic usage
+
+The flags package uses structs, reflection and struct field tags
+to allow users to specify command line options. This results in very simple
+and concise specification of your application options. For example:
+
+ type Options struct {
+ Verbose []bool `short:"v" long:"verbose" description:"Show verbose debug information"`
+ }
+
+This specifies one option with a short name -v and a long name --verbose.
+When either -v or --verbose is found on the command line, a 'true' value
+will be appended to the Verbose field. e.g. when specifying -vvv, the
+resulting value of Verbose will be {[true, true, true]}.
+
+Slice options work exactly the same as primitive type options, except that
+whenever the option is encountered, a value is appended to the slice.
+
+Map options from string to primitive type are also supported. On the command
+line, you specify the value for such an option as key:value. For example
+
+ type Options struct {
+ AuthorInfo string[string] `short:"a"`
+ }
+
+Then, the AuthorInfo map can be filled with something like
+-a name:Jesse -a "surname:van den Kieboom".
+
+Finally, for full control over the conversion between command line argument
+values and options, user defined types can choose to implement the Marshaler
+and Unmarshaler interfaces.
+
+
+Available field tags
+
+The following is a list of tags for struct fields supported by go-flags:
+
+ short: the short name of the option (single character)
+ long: the long name of the option
+ required: if non empty, makes the option required to appear on the command
+ line. If a required option is not present, the parser will
+ return ErrRequired (optional)
+ description: the description of the option (optional)
+ long-description: the long description of the option. Currently only
+ displayed in generated man pages (optional)
+ no-flag: if non-empty, this field is ignored as an option (optional)
+
+ optional: if non-empty, makes the argument of the option optional. When an
+ argument is optional it can only be specified using
+ --option=argument (optional)
+ optional-value: the value of an optional option when the option occurs
+ without an argument. This tag can be specified multiple
+ times in the case of maps or slices (optional)
+ default: the default value of an option. This tag can be specified
+ multiple times in the case of slices or maps (optional)
+ default-mask: when specified, this value will be displayed in the help
+ instead of the actual default value. This is useful
+ mostly for hiding otherwise sensitive information from
+ showing up in the help. If default-mask takes the special
+ value "-", then no default value will be shown at all
+ (optional)
+ env: the default value of the option is overridden from the
+ specified environment variable, if one has been defined.
+ (optional)
+ env-delim: the 'env' default value from environment is split into
+ multiple values with the given delimiter string, use with
+ slices and maps (optional)
+ value-name: the name of the argument value (to be shown in the help)
+ (optional)
+ choice: limits the values for an option to a set of values.
+ Repeat this tag once for each allowable value.
+ e.g. `long:"animal" choice:"cat" choice:"dog"`
+ hidden: if non-empty, the option is not visible in the help or man page.
+
+ base: a base (radix) used to convert strings to integer values, the
+ default base is 10 (i.e. decimal) (optional)
+
+ ini-name: the explicit ini option name (optional)
+ no-ini: if non-empty this field is ignored as an ini option
+ (optional)
+
+ group: when specified on a struct field, makes the struct
+ field a separate group with the given name (optional)
+ namespace: when specified on a group struct field, the namespace
+ gets prepended to every option's long name and
+ subgroup's namespace of this group, separated by
+ the parser's namespace delimiter (optional)
+ env-namespace: when specified on a group struct field, the env-namespace
+ gets prepended to every option's env key and
+ subgroup's env-namespace of this group, separated by
+ the parser's env-namespace delimiter (optional)
+ command: when specified on a struct field, makes the struct
+ field a (sub)command with the given name (optional)
+ subcommands-optional: when specified on a command struct field, makes
+ any subcommands of that command optional (optional)
+ alias: when specified on a command struct field, adds the
+ specified name as an alias for the command. Can be
+ be specified multiple times to add more than one
+ alias (optional)
+ positional-args: when specified on a field with a struct type,
+ uses the fields of that struct to parse remaining
+ positional command line arguments into (in order
+ of the fields). If a field has a slice type,
+ then all remaining arguments will be added to it.
+ Positional arguments are optional by default,
+ unless the "required" tag is specified together
+ with the "positional-args" tag. The "required" tag
+ can also be set on the individual rest argument
+ fields, to require only the first N positional
+ arguments. If the "required" tag is set on the
+ rest arguments slice, then its value determines
+ the minimum amount of rest arguments that needs to
+ be provided (e.g. `required:"2"`) (optional)
+ positional-arg-name: used on a field in a positional argument struct; name
+ of the positional argument placeholder to be shown in
+ the help (optional)
+
+Either the `short:` tag or the `long:` must be specified to make the field eligible as an
+option.
+
+
+Option groups
+
+Option groups are a simple way to semantically separate your options. All
+options in a particular group are shown together in the help under the name
+of the group. Namespaces can be used to specify option long names more
+precisely and emphasize the options affiliation to their group.
+
+There are currently three ways to specify option groups.
+
+ 1. Use NewNamedParser specifying the various option groups.
+ 2. Use AddGroup to add a group to an existing parser.
+ 3. Add a struct field to the top-level options annotated with the
+ group:"group-name" tag.
+
+
+
+Commands
+
+The flags package also has basic support for commands. Commands are often
+used in monolithic applications that support various commands or actions.
+Take git for example, all of the add, commit, checkout, etc. are called
+commands. Using commands you can easily separate multiple functions of your
+application.
+
+There are currently two ways to specify a command.
+
+ 1. Use AddCommand on an existing parser.
+ 2. Add a struct field to your options struct annotated with the
+ command:"command-name" tag.
+
+The most common, idiomatic way to implement commands is to define a global
+parser instance and implement each command in a separate file. These
+command files should define a go init function which calls AddCommand on
+the global parser.
+
+When parsing ends and there is an active command and that command implements
+the Commander interface, then its Execute method will be run with the
+remaining command line arguments.
+
+Command structs can have options which become valid to parse after the
+command has been specified on the command line, in addition to the options
+of all the parent commands. I.e. considering a -v flag on the parser and an
+add command, the following are equivalent:
+
+ ./app -v add
+ ./app add -v
+
+However, if the -v flag is defined on the add command, then the first of
+the two examples above would fail since the -v flag is not defined before
+the add command.
+
+
+Completion
+
+go-flags has builtin support to provide bash completion of flags, commands
+and argument values. To use completion, the binary which uses go-flags
+can be invoked in a special environment to list completion of the current
+command line argument. It should be noted that this `executes` your application,
+and it is up to the user to make sure there are no negative side effects (for
+example from init functions).
+
+Setting the environment variable `GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1` enables completion
+by replacing the argument parsing routine with the completion routine which
+outputs completions for the passed arguments. The basic invocation to
+complete a set of arguments is therefore:
+
+ GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1 ./completion-example arg1 arg2 arg3
+
+where `completion-example` is the binary, `arg1` and `arg2` are
+the current arguments, and `arg3` (the last argument) is the argument
+to be completed. If the GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set to "verbose", then
+descriptions of possible completion items will also be shown, if there
+are more than 1 completion items.
+
+To use this with bash completion, a simple file can be written which
+calls the binary which supports go-flags completion:
+
+ _completion_example() {
+ # All arguments except the first one
+ args=("${COMP_WORDS[@]:1:$COMP_CWORD}")
+
+ # Only split on newlines
+ local IFS=$'\n'
+
+ # Call completion (note that the first element of COMP_WORDS is
+ # the executable itself)
+ COMPREPLY=($(GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1 ${COMP_WORDS[0]} "${args[@]}"))
+ return 0
+ }
+
+ complete -F _completion_example completion-example
+
+Completion requires the parser option PassDoubleDash and is therefore enforced if the environment variable GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set.
+
+Customized completion for argument values is supported by implementing
+the flags.Completer interface for the argument value type. An example
+of a type which does so is the flags.Filename type, an alias of string
+allowing simple filename completion. A slice or array argument value
+whose element type implements flags.Completer will also be completed.
