Pragmatic command line parsing for Scala applications.

## Highlights

- Simple interface, inspired by the

  [argparse](https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html) package from

  python.

- Bash completion.

  - Standalone bash completion for a super snappy user experience, even on the

    JVM.

  - Interactive bash completion for the most custom needs.

- Works with Scala 2 and 3, Native and JVM

## Docs

- HTML: look at the [website](https://jodersky.github.io/scala-argparse)

- source (markdown): browse the docs/ folder.

## Building

This project uses [Mill](https://github.com/com-lihaoyi/mill) to build. The

configuration is in the `build.sc` file.

### Developer

- compile main project for all supported versions of scala: `./mill argparse.__.compile`

- run all tests: `./mill __.test`

- run an example:

  - `./mill examples. `

  - e.g. `./mill examples.paramnamed --verbosity 5`

  - note: examples use Scala Native and hence require llvm

- publish main project locally: `./mill argparse.__.publishLocal`

### Maintainer

Look at the scripts in the `ci/` directory.
