Status](https://travis-ci.org/ogier/pflag.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/ogier/pflag)\n\n## Description\n\npflag is a drop-in replacement for Go's flag package, implementing\nPOSIX/GNU-style --flags.\n\npflag is compatible with the [GNU extensions to the POSIX recommendations\nfor command-line options][1]. For a more precise description, see the\n\"Command-line flag syntax\" section below.\n\n[1]: http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Argument-Syntax.html\n\npflag is available under the same style of BSD license as the Go language,\nwhich can be found in the LICENSE file.\n\n## Installation\n\npflag is available using the standard `go get` command.\n\nInstall by running:\n\n    go get github.com/ogier/pflag\n\nRun tests by running:\n\n    go test github.com/ogier/pflag\n\n## Usage\n\npflag is a drop-in replacement of Go's native flag package. If you import\npflag under the name \"flag\" then all code should continue to function\nwith no changes.\n\n``` go\nimport flag \"github.com/ogier/pflag\"\n```\n\nThere is one exception to this: if you directly instantiate the Flag struct\nthere is one more field \"Shorthand\" that you will need to set.\nMost code never instantiates this struct directly, and instead uses\nfunctions such as String(), BoolVar(), and Var(), and is therefore\nunaffected.\n\nDefine flags using flag.String(), Bool(), Int(), etc.\n\nThis declares an integer flag, -flagname, stored in the pointer ip, with type *int.\n\n``` go\nvar ip *int = flag.Int(\"flagname\", 1234, \"help message for flagname\")\n```\n\nIf you like, you can bind the flag to a variable using the Var() functions.\n\n``` go\nvar flagvar int\nfunc init() {\n    flag.IntVar(\u0026flagvar, \"flagname\", 1234, \"help message for flagname\")\n}\n```\n\nOr you can create custom flags that satisfy the Value interface (with\npointer receivers) and couple them to flag parsing by\n\n``` go\nflag.Var(\u0026flagVal, \"name\", \"help message for flagname\")\n```\n\nFor such flags, the default value is just the initial value of the variable.\n\nAfter all flags are defined, call\n\n``` go\nflag.Parse()\n```\n\nto parse the command line into the defined flags.\n\nFlags may then be used directly. If you're using the flags themselves,\nthey are all pointers; if you bind to variables, they're values.\n\n``` go\nfmt.Println(\"ip has value \", *ip)\nfmt.Println(\"flagvar has value \", flagvar)\n```\n\nAfter parsing, the arguments after the flag are available as the\nslice flag.Args() or individually as flag.Arg(i).\nThe arguments are indexed from 0 through flag.NArg()-1.\n\nThe pflag package also defines some new functions that are not in flag,\nthat give one-letter shorthands for flags. You can use these by appending\n'P' to the name of any function that defines a flag.\n\n``` go\nvar ip = flag.IntP(\"flagname\", \"f\", 1234, \"help message\")\nvar flagvar bool\nfunc init() {\n    flag.BoolVarP(\"boolname\", \"b\", true, \"help message\")\n}\nflag.VarP(\u0026flagVar, \"varname\", \"v\", 1234, \"help message\")\n```\n\nShorthand letters can be used with single dashes on the command line.\nBoolean shorthand flags can be combined with other shorthand flags.\n\nThe default set of command-line flags is controlled by\ntop-level functions.  The FlagSet type allows one to define\nindependent sets of flags, such as to implement subcommands\nin a command-line interface. The methods of FlagSet are\nanalogous to the top-level functions for the command-line\nflag set.\n\n## Command line flag syntax\n\n```\n--flag    // boolean flags only\n--flag=x\n```\n\nUnlike the flag package, a single dash before an option means something\ndifferent than a double dash. Single dashes signify a series of shorthand\nletters for flags. All but the last shorthand letter must be boolean flags.\n\n```\n// boolean flags\n-f\n-abc\n\n// non-boolean flags\n-n 1234\n-Ifile\n\n// mixed\n-abcs \"hello\"\n-abcn1234\n```\n\nFlag parsing stops after the terminator \"--\". Unlike the flag package,\nflags can be interspersed with arguments anywhere on the command line\nbefore this terminator.\n\nInteger flags accept 1234, 0664, 0x1234 and may be negative.\nBoolean flags (in their long form) accept 1, 0, t, f, true, false,\nTRUE, FALSE, True, False.\nDuration flags accept any input valid for time.ParseDuration.\n\n## More info\n\nYou can see the full reference documentation of the pflag package\n[at godoc.org][3], or through go's standard documentation system by\nrunning `godoc -http=:6060` and browsing to\n[http://localhost:6060/pkg/github.com/ogier/pflag][2] after\ninstallation.\n\n[2]: http://localhost:6060/pkg/github.com/ogier/pflag\n[3]: http://godoc.org/github.com/ogier/pflag\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fogier%2Fpflag","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fogier%2Fpflag","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fogier%2Fpflag/lists"}
