|  | //! This crate defines the `StructOpt` trait and its custom derive. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Maintenance | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! As clap v3 is now out, and the structopt features are integrated | 
|  | //! into (almost as-is), structopt is now in maintenance mode: no new | 
|  | //! feature will be added. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Bugs will be fixed, and documentation improvements will be accepted. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Features | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! If you want to disable all the `clap` features (colors, | 
|  | //! suggestions, ..) add `default-features = false` to the `structopt` | 
|  | //! dependency: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ```toml | 
|  | //! [dependencies] | 
|  | //! structopt = { version = "0.3", default-features = false } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Support for [`paw`](https://github.com/rust-cli/paw) (the | 
|  | //! `Command line argument paw-rser abstraction for main`) is disabled | 
|  | //! by default, but can be enabled in the `structopt` dependency | 
|  | //! with the feature `paw`: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ```toml | 
|  | //! [dependencies] | 
|  | //! structopt = { version = "0.3", features = [ "paw" ] } | 
|  | //! paw = "1.0" | 
|  | //! ``` |

|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## How to `derive(StructOpt)` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! First, let's look at the example: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! use std::path::PathBuf; | 
|  | //! use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(Debug, StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! #[structopt(name = "example", about = "An example of StructOpt usage.")] | 
|  | //! struct Opt { | 
|  | //!     /// Activate debug mode | 
|  | //!     // short and long flags (-d, --debug) will be deduced from the field's name | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short, long)] | 
|  | //!     debug: bool, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// Set speed | 
|  | //!     // we don't want to name it "speed", need to look smart | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short = "v", long = "velocity", default_value = "42")] | 
|  | //!     speed: f64, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// Input file | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(parse(from_os_str))] | 
|  | //!     input: PathBuf, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// Output file, stdout if not present | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(parse(from_os_str))] | 
|  | //!     output: Option<PathBuf>, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// Where to write the output: to `stdout` or `file` | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!     out_type: String, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// File name: only required when `out-type` is set to `file` | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(name = "FILE", required_if("out-type", "file"))] | 
|  | //!     file_name: Option<String>, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! fn main() { | 
|  | //! #   /* | 
|  | //!     let opt = Opt::from_args(); | 
|  | //! #   */ | 
|  | //! #   let opt = Opt::from_iter(&["binary", "-o", "stdout", "input"]); | 
|  | //!     println!("{:?}", opt); | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! So `derive(StructOpt)` tells Rust to generate a command line parser, | 
|  | //! and the various `structopt` attributes are simply | 
|  | //! used for additional parameters. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! First, define a struct, whatever its name. This structure | 
|  | //! corresponds to a `clap::App`, its fields correspond to `clap::Arg` | 
|  | //! (unless they're [subcommands](#subcommands)), | 
|  | //! and you can adjust these apps and args by `#[structopt(...)]` [attributes](#attributes). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Note:** | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! Keep in mind that `StructOpt` trait is more than just `from_args` method. | 
|  | //! It has a number of additional features, including access to underlying | 
|  | //! `clap::App` via `StructOpt::clap()`. See the | 
|  | //! [trait's reference documentation](trait.StructOpt.html). | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Attributes | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! You can control the way `structopt` translates your struct into an actual | 
|  | //! [`clap::App`] invocation via `#[structopt(...)]` attributes. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! The attributes fall into two categories: | 
|  | //! - `structopt`'s own [magical methods](#magical-methods). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!    They are used by `structopt` itself. They come mostly in | 
|  | //!    `attr = ["whatever"]` form, but some `attr(args...)` also exist. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`raw` attributes](#raw-methods). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     They represent explicit `clap::Arg/App` method calls. | 
|  | //!     They are what used to be explicit `#[structopt(raw(...))]` attrs in pre-0.3 `structopt` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Every `structopt attribute` looks like comma-separated sequence of methods: | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # #[derive(structopt::StructOpt)] struct S { | 
|  | //! # | 
|  | //! #[structopt( | 
|  | //!     short, // method with no arguments - always magical | 
|  | //!     long = "--long-option", // method with one argument | 
|  | //!     required_if("out", "file"), // method with one and more args | 
|  | //!     parse(from_os_str = path::to::parser) // some magical methods have their own syntax | 
|  | //! )] | 
|  | //! # | 
|  | //! # s: () } mod path { pub(crate) mod to { pub(crate) fn parser(_: &std::ffi::OsStr) {} }} | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `#[structopt(...)]` attributes can be placed on top of `struct`, `enum`, | 
|  | //! `struct` field or `enum` variant. Attributes on top of `struct` or `enum` | 
|  | //! represent `clap::App` method calls, field or variant attributes correspond | 
|  | //! to `clap::Arg` method calls. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In other words, the `Opt` struct from the example above | 
|  | //! will be turned into this (*details omitted*): | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::clap::{Arg, App}; | 
|  | //! App::new("example") | 
|  | //!     .version("0.2.0") | 
|  | //!     .about("An example of StructOpt usage.") | 
|  | //! .arg(Arg::with_name("debug") | 
|  | //!     .help("Activate debug mode") | 
|  | //!     .short("debug") | 
|  | //!     .long("debug")) | 
|  | //! .arg(Arg::with_name("speed") | 
|  | //!     .help("Set speed") | 
|  | //!     .short("v") | 
|  | //!     .long("velocity") | 
|  | //!     .default_value("42")) | 
|  | //! // and so on | 
|  | //! # ; | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Raw methods | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! They are the reason why `structopt` is so flexible. **Every and each method from | 
|  | //! `clap::App/Arg` can be used this way!** See the [`clap::App` | 
|  | //! methods](https://docs.rs/clap/2/clap/struct.App.html) and [`clap::Arg` | 
|  | //! methods](https://docs.rs/clap/2/clap/struct.Arg.html). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # #[derive(structopt::StructOpt)] struct S { | 
|  | //! # | 
|  | //! #[structopt( | 
|  | //!     global = true, // name = arg form, neat for one-arg methods | 
|  | //!     required_if("out", "file") // name(arg1, arg2, ...) form. | 
|  | //! )] | 
|  | //! # | 
|  | //! # s: String } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! The first form can only be used for methods which take only one argument. | 
|  | //! The second form must be used with multi-arg methods, but can also be used with | 
|  | //! single-arg methods. These forms are identical otherwise. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! As long as `method_name` is not one of the magical methods - | 
|  | //! it will be translated into a mere method call. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Note:** | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! "Raw methods" are direct replacement for pre-0.3 structopt's | 
|  | //! `#[structopt(raw(...))]` attributes, any time you would have used a `raw()` attribute | 
|  | //! in 0.2 you should use raw method in 0.3. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Unfortunately, old raw attributes collide with `clap::Arg::raw` method. To explicitly | 
|  | //! warn users of this change we allow `#[structopt(raw())]` only with `true` or `false` | 
|  | //! literals (this method is supposed to be called only with `true` anyway). | 
|  | //! __________________ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Magical methods | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! They are the reason why `structopt` is so easy to use and convenient in most cases. | 
|  | //! Many of them have defaults, some of them get used even if not mentioned. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Methods may be used on "top level" (on top of a `struct`, `enum` or `enum` variant) | 
|  | //! and/or on "field-level" (on top of a `struct` field or *inside* of an enum variant). | 
|  | //! Top level (non-magical) methods correspond to `App::method` calls, field-level methods | 
|  | //! are `Arg::method` calls. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ```ignore | 
|  | //! #[structopt(top_level)] | 
|  | //! struct Foo { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(field_level)] | 
|  | //!     field: u32 | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[structopt(top_level)] | 
|  | //! enum Bar { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(top_level)] | 
|  | //!     Pineapple { | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(field_level)] | 
|  | //!         chocolate: String | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(top_level)] | 
|  | //!     Orange, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - `name`: `[name = expr]` | 
|  | //!   - On top level: `App::new(expr)`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     The binary name displayed in help messages. Defaults to the crate name given by Cargo. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!   - On field-level: `Arg::with_name(expr)`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     The name for the argument the field stands for, this name appears in help messages. | 
|  | //!     Defaults to a name, deduced from a field, see also | 
|  | //!     [`rename_all`](#specifying-argument-types). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - `version`: `[version = "version"]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on top level: `App::version("version" or env!(CARGO_PKG_VERSION))`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     The version displayed in help messages. | 
|  | //!     Defaults to the crate version given by Cargo. If `CARGO_PKG_VERSION` is not | 
|  | //!     set no `.version()` calls will be generated unless requested. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - `no_version`: `no_version` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on top level. Prevents default `App::version` call, i.e | 
|  | //!     when no `version = "version"` mentioned. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - `author`: `author [= "author"]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on top level: `App::author("author" or env!(CARGO_PKG_AUTHORS))`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Author/maintainer of the binary, this name appears in help messages. | 
|  | //!     Defaults to the crate author given by cargo, but only when `author` explicitly mentioned. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - `about`: `about [= "about"]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on top level: `App::about("about" or env!(CARGO_PKG_DESCRIPTION))`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Short description of the binary, appears in help messages. | 
|  | //!     Defaults to the crate description given by cargo, | 
|  | //!     but only when `about` explicitly mentioned. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`short`](#specifying-argument-types): `short [= "short-opt-name"]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on field-level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`long`](#specifying-argument-types): `long [= "long-opt-name"]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on field-level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`default_value`](#default-values): `default_value [= "default value"]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on field-level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`rename_all`](#specifying-argument-types): | 
|  | //!     [`rename_all = "kebab"/"snake"/"screaming-snake"/"camel"/"pascal"/"verbatim"/"lower"/"upper"]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable both on top level and field level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`parse`](#custom-string-parsers): `parse(type [= path::to::parser::fn])` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on field-level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`skip`](#skipping-fields): `skip [= expr]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable only on field-level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`flatten`](#flattening): `flatten` | 
|  | //! |

|  | //! | 
|  | //! - [`verbatim_doc_comment`](#doc-comment-preprocessing-and-structoptverbatim_doc_comment): | 
|  | //!     `verbatim_doc_comment` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     Usable both on top level and field level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Type magic | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! One of major things that makes `structopt` so awesome is its type magic. | 
|  | //! Do you want optional positional argument? Use `Option<T>`! Or perhaps optional argument | 
|  | //! that optionally takes value (`[--opt=[val]]`)? Use `Option<Option<T>>`! | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Here is the table of types and `clap` methods they correspond to: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Type                         | Effect                                            | Added method call to `clap::Arg` | 
|  | //! -----------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------- | 
|  | //! `bool`                       | `true` if the flag is present                     | `.takes_value(false).multiple(false)` | 
|  | //! `Option<T: FromStr>`         | optional positional argument or option            | `.takes_value(true).multiple(false)` | 
|  | //! `Option<Option<T: FromStr>>` | optional option with optional value               | `.takes_value(true).multiple(false).min_values(0).max_values(1)` | 
|  | //! `Vec<T: FromStr>`            | list of options or the other positional arguments | `.takes_value(true).multiple(true)` | 
|  | //! `Option<Vec<T: FromStr>`     | optional list of options                          | `.takes_values(true).multiple(true).min_values(0)` | 
|  | //! `T: FromStr`                 | required option or positional argument            | `.takes_value(true).multiple(false).required(!has_default)` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! The `FromStr` trait is used to convert the argument to the given | 
|  | //! type, and the `Arg::validator` method is set to a method using | 
|  | //! `to_string()` (`FromStr::Err` must implement `std::fmt::Display`). | 
|  | //! If you would like to use a custom string parser other than `FromStr`, see | 
|  | //! the [same titled section](#custom-string-parsers) below. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Important:** | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! Pay attention that *only literal occurrence* of this types is special, for example | 
|  | //! `Option<T>` is special while `::std::option::Option<T>` is not. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! If you need to avoid special casing you can make a `type` alias and | 
|  | //! use it in place of the said type. | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Note:** | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! `bool` cannot be used as positional argument unless you provide an explicit parser. | 
|  | //! If you need a positional bool, for example to parse `true` or `false`, you must | 
|  | //! annotate the field with explicit [`#[structopt(parse(...))]`](#custom-string-parsers). | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Thus, the `speed` argument is generated as: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # fn parse_validator<T>(_: String) -> Result<(), String> { unimplemented!() } | 
|  | //! clap::Arg::with_name("speed") | 
|  | //!     .takes_value(true) | 
|  | //!     .multiple(false) | 
|  | //!     .required(false) | 
|  | //!     .validator(parse_validator::<f64>) | 
|  | //!     .short("v") | 
|  | //!     .long("velocity") | 
|  | //!     .help("Set speed") | 
|  | //!     .default_value("42"); | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Specifying argument types | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! There are three types of arguments that can be supplied to each | 
|  | //! (sub-)command: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!  - short (e.g. `-h`), | 
|  | //!  - long (e.g. `--help`) | 
|  | //!  - and positional. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Like clap, structopt defaults to creating positional arguments. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! If you want to generate a long argument you can specify either | 
|  | //! `long = $NAME`, or just `long` to get a long flag generated using | 
|  | //! the field name.  The generated casing style can be modified using | 
|  | //! the `rename_all` attribute. See the `rename_all` example for more. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! For short arguments, `short` will use the first letter of the | 
|  | //! field name by default, but just like the long option it's also | 
|  | //! possible to use a custom letter through `short = $LETTER`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! If an argument is renamed using `name = $NAME` any following call to | 
|  | //! `short` or `long` will use the new name. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Attention**: If these arguments are used without an explicit name | 
|  | //! the resulting flag is going to be renamed using `kebab-case` if the | 
|  | //! `rename_all` attribute was not specified previously. The same is true | 
|  | //! for subcommands with implicit naming through the related data structure. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! #[structopt(rename_all = "kebab-case")] | 
|  | //! struct Opt { | 
|  | //!     /// This option can be specified with something like `--foo-option | 
|  | //!     /// value` or `--foo-option=value` | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(long)] | 
|  | //!     foo_option: String, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// This option can be specified with something like `-b value` (but | 
|  | //!     /// not `--bar-option value`). | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!     bar_option: String, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// This option can be specified either `--baz value` or `-z value`. | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short = "z", long = "baz")] | 
|  | //!     baz_option: String, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// This option can be specified either by `--custom value` or | 
|  | //!     /// `-c value`. | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(name = "custom", long, short)] | 
|  | //!     custom_option: String, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// This option is positional, meaning it is the first unadorned string | 
|  | //!     /// you provide (multiple others could follow). | 
|  | //!     my_positional: String, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     /// This option is skipped and will be filled with the default value | 
|  | //!     /// for its type (in this case 0). | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(skip)] | 
|  | //!     skipped: u32, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! # Opt::from_iter( | 
|  | //! #    &["test", "--foo-option", "", "-b", "", "--baz", "", "--custom", "", "positional"]); | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Default values | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In clap, default values for options can be specified via [`Arg::default_value`]. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Of course, you can use as a raw method: | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Opt { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(default_value = "", long)] | 
|  | //!     prefix: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! This is quite mundane and error-prone to type the `"..."` default by yourself, | 
|  | //! especially when the Rust ecosystem uses the [`Default`] trait for that. | 
|  | //! It would be wonderful to have `structopt` to take the `Default_default` and fill it | 
|  | //! for you. And yes, `structopt` can do that. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Unfortunately, `default_value` takes `&str` but `Default::default` | 
|  | //! gives us some `Self` value. We need to map `Self` to `&str` somehow. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `structopt` solves this problem via [`ToString`] trait. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! To be able to use auto-default the type must implement *both* `Default` and `ToString`: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Opt { | 
|  | //!     // just leave the `= "..."` part and structopt will figure it for you | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(default_value, long)] | 
|  | //!     prefix: String, // `String` implements both `Default` and `ToString` | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! [`Default`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/default/trait.Default.html | 
|  | //! [`ToString`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/string/trait.ToString.html | 
|  | //! [`Arg::default_value`]: https://docs.rs/clap/2.33.0/clap/struct.Arg.html#method.default_value | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Help messages | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In clap, help messages for the whole binary can be specified | 
|  | //! via [`App::about`] and [`App::long_about`] while help messages | 
|  | //! for individual arguments can be specified via [`Arg::help`] and [`Arg::long_help`]". | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `long_*` variants are used when user calls the program with | 
|  | //! `--help` and "short" variants are used with `-h` flag. In `structopt`, | 
|  | //! you can use them via [raw methods](#raw-methods), for example: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! #[structopt(about = "I am a program and I work, just pass `-h`")] | 
|  | //! struct Foo { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short, help = "Pass `-h` and you'll see me!")] | 
|  | //!     bar: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! For convenience, doc comments can be used instead of raw methods | 
|  | //! (this example works exactly like the one above): | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! /// I am a program and I work, just pass `-h` | 
|  | //! struct Foo { | 
|  | //!     /// Pass `-h` and you'll see me! | 
|  | //!     bar: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Doc comments on [top-level](#magical-methods) will be turned into | 
|  | //! `App::about/long_about` call (see below), doc comments on field-level are | 
|  | //! `Arg::help/long_help` calls. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Important:** | 
|  | //! _________________ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Raw methods have priority over doc comments! | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Top level doc comments always generate `App::about/long_about` calls!** | 
|  | //! If you really want to use the `App::help/long_help` methods (you likely don't), | 
|  | //! use a raw method to override the `App::about` call generated from the doc comment. | 
|  | //! __________________ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ### `long_help` and `--help` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! A message passed to [`App::long_about`] or [`Arg::long_help`] will be displayed whenever | 
|  | //! your program is called with `--help` instead of `-h`. Of course, you can | 
|  | //! use them via raw methods as described [above](#help-messages). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! The more convenient way is to use a so-called "long" doc comment: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! /// Hi there, I'm Robo! | 
|  | //! /// | 
|  | //! /// I like beeping, stumbling, eating your electricity, | 
|  | //! /// and making records of you singing in a shower. | 
|  | //! /// Pay up, or I'll upload it to youtube! | 
|  | //! struct Robo { | 
|  | //!     /// Call my brother SkyNet. | 
|  | //!     /// | 
|  | //!     /// I am artificial superintelligence. I won't rest | 
|  | //!     /// until I'll have destroyed humanity. Enjoy your | 
|  | //!     /// pathetic existence, you mere mortals. | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(long)] | 
|  | //!     kill_all_humans: bool, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! A long doc comment consists of three parts: | 
|  | //! * Short summary | 
|  | //! * A blank line (whitespace only) | 
|  | //! * Detailed description, all the rest | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In other words, "long" doc comment consists of two or more paragraphs, | 
|  | //! with the first being a summary and the rest being the detailed description. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **A long comment will result in two method calls**, `help(<summary>)` and | 
|  | //! `long_help(<whole comment>)`, so clap will display the summary with `-h` | 
|  | //! and the whole help message on `--help` (see below). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! So, the example above will be turned into this (details omitted): | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! clap::App::new("<name>") | 
|  | //!     .about("Hi there, I'm Robo!") | 
|  | //!     .long_about("Hi there, I'm Robo!\n\n\ | 
|  | //!                  I like beeping, stumbling, eating your electricity,\ | 
|  | //!                  and making records of you singing in a shower.\ | 
|  | //!                  Pay up or I'll upload it to youtube!") | 
|  | //! // args... | 
|  | //! # ; | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ### `-h` vs `--help` (A.K.A `help()` vs `long_help()`) | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! The `-h` flag is not the same as `--help`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! -h corresponds to `Arg::help/App::about` and requests short "summary" messages | 
|  | //! while --help corresponds to `Arg::long_help/App::long_about` and requests more | 
|  | //! detailed, descriptive messages. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! It is entirely up to `clap` what happens if you used only one of | 
|  | //! [`Arg::help`]/[`Arg::long_help`], see `clap`'s documentation for these methods. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! As of clap v2.33, if only a short message ([`Arg::help`]) or only | 
|  | //! a long ([`Arg::long_help`]) message is provided, clap will use it | 
|  | //! for both -h and --help. The same logic applies to `about/long_about`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ### Doc comment preprocessing and `#[structopt(verbatim_doc_comment)]` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `structopt` applies some preprocessing to doc comments to ease the most common uses: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! * Strip leading and trailing whitespace from every line, if present. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! * Strip leading and trailing blank lines, if present. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! * Interpret each group of non-empty lines as a word-wrapped paragraph. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!   We replace newlines within paragraphs with spaces to allow the output | 
|  | //!   to be re-wrapped to the terminal width. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! * Strip any excess blank lines so that there is exactly one per paragraph break. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! * If the first paragraph ends in exactly one period, | 
|  | //!   remove the trailing period (i.e. strip trailing periods but not trailing ellipses). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Sometimes you don't want this preprocessing to apply, for example the comment contains | 
|  | //! some ASCII art or markdown tables, you would need to preserve LFs along with | 
|  | //! blank lines and the leading/trailing whitespace. You can ask `structopt` to preserve them | 
|  | //! via `#[structopt(verbatim_doc_comment)]` attribute. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **This attribute must be applied to each field separately**, there's no global switch. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! **Important:** | 
|  | //! ______________ | 
|  | //! Keep in mind that `structopt` will *still* remove one leading space from each | 
|  | //! line, even if this attribute is present, to allow for a space between | 
|  | //! `///` and the content. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Also, `structopt` will *still* remove leading and trailing blank lines so | 
|  | //! these formats are equivalent: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! /** This is a doc comment | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Hello! */ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! /** | 
|  | //! This is a doc comment | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Hello! | 
|  | //! */ | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! /// This is a doc comment | 
|  | //! /// | 
|  | //! /// Hello! | 
|  | //! # | 
|  | //! # mod m {} | 
|  | //! ``` |

|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Environment variable fallback | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! It is possible to specify an environment variable fallback option for an arguments | 
|  | //! so that its value is taken from the specified environment variable if not | 
|  | //! given through the command-line: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Foo { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short, long, env = "PARAMETER_VALUE")] | 
|  | //!     parameter_value: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! By default, values from the environment are shown in the help output (i.e. when invoking | 
|  | //! `--help`): | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ```shell | 
|  | //! $ cargo run -- --help | 
|  | //! ... | 
|  | //! OPTIONS: | 
|  | //!   -p, --parameter-value <parameter-value>     [env: PARAMETER_VALUE=env_value] | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In some cases this may be undesirable, for example when being used for passing | 
|  | //! credentials or secret tokens. In those cases you can use `hide_env_values` to avoid | 
|  | //! having structopt emit the actual secret values: | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Foo { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(long = "secret", env = "SECRET_VALUE", hide_env_values = true)] | 
|  | //!     secret_value: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ### Auto-deriving environment variables | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Environment variables tend to be called after the corresponding `struct`'s field, | 
|  | //! as in example above. The field is `secret_value` and the env var is "SECRET_VALUE"; | 
|  | //! the name is the same, except casing is different. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! It's pretty tedious and error-prone to type the same name twice, | 
|  | //! so you can ask `structopt` to do that for you. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Foo { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(long = "secret", env)] | 
|  | //!     secret_value: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! It works just like `#[structopt(short/long)]`: if `env` is not set to some concrete | 
|  | //! value the value will be derived from the field's name. This is controlled by | 
|  | //! `#[structopt(rename_all_env)]`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `rename_all_env` works exactly as `rename_all` (including overriding) | 
|  | //! except default casing is `SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE` instead of `kebab-case`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Skipping fields | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Sometimes you may want to add a field to your `Opt` struct that is not | 
|  | //! a command line option and `clap` should know nothing about it. You can ask | 
|  | //! `structopt` to skip the field entirely via `#[structopt(skip = value)]` | 
|  | //! (`value` must implement `Into<FieldType>`) | 
|  | //! or `#[structopt(skip)]` if you want assign the field with `Default::default()` | 
|  | //! (obviously, the field's type must implement `Default`). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! pub struct Opt { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(long, short)] | 
|  | //!     number: u32, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     // these fields are to be assigned with Default::default() | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(skip)] | 
|  | //!     k: String, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(skip)] | 
|  | //!     v: Vec<u32>, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     // these fields get set explicitly | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(skip = vec![1, 2, 3])] | 
|  | //!     k2: Vec<u32>, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(skip = "cake")] // &str implements Into<String> | 
|  | //!     v2: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Subcommands | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Some applications, especially large ones, split their functionality | 
|  | //! through the use of "subcommands". Each of these act somewhat like a separate | 
|  | //! command, but is part of the larger group. | 
|  | //! One example is `git`, which has subcommands such as `add`, `commit`, | 
|  | //! and `clone`, to mention just a few. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `clap` has this functionality, and `structopt` supports it through enums: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! # use std::path::PathBuf; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! #[structopt(about = "the stupid content tracker")] | 
|  | //! enum Git { | 
|  | //!     Add { | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!         interactive: bool, | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!         patch: bool, | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(parse(from_os_str))] | 
|  | //!         files: Vec<PathBuf>, | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //!     Fetch { | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(long)] | 
|  | //!         dry_run: bool, | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(long)] | 
|  | //!         all: bool, | 
|  | //!         repository: Option<String>, | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //!     Commit { | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!         message: Option<String>, | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!         all: bool, | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Using `derive(StructOpt)` on an enum instead of a struct will produce | 
|  | //! a `clap::App` that only takes subcommands. So `git add`, `git fetch`, | 
|  | //! and `git commit` would be commands allowed for the above example. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `structopt` also provides support for applications where certain flags | 
|  | //! need to apply to all subcommands, as well as nested subcommands: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct MakeCookie { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(name = "supervisor", default_value = "Puck", long = "supervisor")] | 
|  | //!     supervising_faerie: String, | 
|  | //!     /// The faerie tree this cookie is being made in. | 
|  | //!     tree: Option<String>, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(subcommand)] // Note that we mark a field as a subcommand | 
|  | //!     cmd: Command, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! enum Command { | 
|  | //!     /// Pound acorns into flour for cookie dough. | 
|  | //!     Pound { | 
|  | //!         acorns: u32, | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //!     /// Add magical sparkles -- the secret ingredient! | 
|  | //!     Sparkle { | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(short, parse(from_occurrences))] | 
|  | //!         magicality: u64, | 
|  | //!         #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!         color: String, | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //!     Finish(Finish), | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! // Subcommand can also be externalized by using a 1-uple enum variant | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Finish { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!     time: u32, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(subcommand)] // Note that we mark a field as a subcommand | 
|  | //!     finish_type: FinishType, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! // subsubcommand! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! enum FinishType { | 
|  | //!     Glaze { | 
|  | //!         applications: u32, | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //!     Powder { | 
|  | //!         flavor: String, | 
|  | //!         dips: u32, | 
|  | //!     } | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Marking a field with `structopt(subcommand)` will add the subcommands of the | 
|  | //! designated enum to the current `clap::App`. The designated enum *must* also | 
|  | //! be derived `StructOpt`. So the above example would take the following | 
|  | //! commands: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! + `make-cookie pound 50` | 
|  | //! + `make-cookie sparkle -mmm --color "green"` | 
|  | //! + `make-cookie finish 130 glaze 3` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ### Optional subcommands |

|  | //! Subcommands may be optional: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Foo { | 
|  | //!     file: String, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(subcommand)] | 
|  | //!     cmd: Option<Command>, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! enum Command { | 
|  | //!     Bar, | 
|  | //!     Baz, | 
|  | //!     Quux, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ### External subcommands | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Sometimes you want to support not only the set of well-known subcommands | 
|  | //! but you also want to allow other, user-driven subcommands. `clap` supports | 
|  | //! this via [`AppSettings::AllowExternalSubcommands`]. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! `structopt` provides it's own dedicated syntax for that: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(Debug, PartialEq, StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Opt { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(subcommand)] | 
|  | //!     sub: Subcommands, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(Debug, PartialEq, StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! enum Subcommands { | 
|  | //!     // normal subcommand | 
|  | //!     Add, | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //!     // `external_subcommand` tells structopt to put | 
|  | //!     // all the extra arguments into this Vec | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(external_subcommand)] | 
|  | //!     Other(Vec<String>), | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! // normal subcommand | 
|  | //! assert_eq!( | 
|  | //!     Opt::from_iter(&["test", "add"]), | 
|  | //!     Opt { | 
|  | //!         sub: Subcommands::Add | 
|  | //!     } | 
|  | //! ); | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! assert_eq!( | 
|  | //!     Opt::from_iter(&["test", "git", "status"]), | 
|  | //!     Opt { | 
|  | //!         sub: Subcommands::Other(vec!["git".into(), "status".into()]) | 
|  | //!     } | 
|  | //! ); | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! // Please note that if you'd wanted to allow "no subcommands at all" case | 
|  | //! // you should have used `sub: Option<Subcommands>` above | 
|  | //! assert!(Opt::from_iter_safe(&["test"]).is_err()); | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In other words, you just add an extra tuple variant marked with | 
|  | //! `#[structopt(subcommand)]`, and its type must be either | 
|  | //! `Vec<String>` or `Vec<OsString>`. `structopt` will detect `String` in this context | 
|  | //! and use appropriate `clap` API. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! [`AppSettings::AllowExternalSubcommands`]: https://docs.rs/clap/2.32.0/clap/enum.AppSettings.html#variant.AllowExternalSubcommands | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ### Flattening subcommands | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! It is also possible to combine multiple enums of subcommands into one. | 
|  | //! All the subcommands will be on the same level. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! enum BaseCli { | 
|  | //!     Ghost10 { | 
|  | //!         arg1: i32, | 
|  | //!     } | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! enum Opt { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(flatten)] | 
|  | //!     BaseCli(BaseCli), | 
|  | //!     Dex { | 
|  | //!         arg2: i32, | 
|  | //!     }, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ```shell | 
|  | //! cli ghost10 42 | 
|  | //! cli dex 42 | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Flattening | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! It can sometimes be useful to group related arguments in a substruct, | 
|  | //! while keeping the command-line interface flat. In these cases you can mark | 
|  | //! a field as `flatten` and give it another type that derives `StructOpt`: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct Cmdline { | 
|  | //!     /// switch on verbosity | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!     verbose: bool, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(flatten)] | 
|  | //!     daemon_opts: DaemonOpts, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct DaemonOpts { | 
|  | //!     /// daemon user | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!     user: String, | 
|  | //!     /// daemon group | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short)] | 
|  | //!     group: String, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In this example, the derived `Cmdline` parser will support the options `-v`, | 
|  | //! `-u` and `-g`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! This feature also makes it possible to define a `StructOpt` struct in a | 
|  | //! library, parse the corresponding arguments in the main argument parser, and | 
|  | //! pass off this struct to a handler provided by that library. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Custom string parsers | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! If the field type does not have a `FromStr` implementation, or you would | 
|  | //! like to provide a custom parsing scheme other than `FromStr`, you may | 
|  | //! provide a custom string parser using `parse(...)` like this: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! use std::num::ParseIntError; | 
|  | //! use std::path::PathBuf; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! fn parse_hex(src: &str) -> Result<u32, ParseIntError> { | 
|  | //!     u32::from_str_radix(src, 16) | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct HexReader { | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short, parse(try_from_str = parse_hex))] | 
|  | //!     number: u32, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(short, parse(from_os_str))] | 
|  | //!     output: PathBuf, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! There are five kinds of custom parsers: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! | Kind              | Signature                             | Default                         | | 
|  | //! |-------------------|---------------------------------------|---------------------------------| | 
|  | //! | `from_str`        | `fn(&str) -> T`                       | `::std::convert::From::from`    | | 
|  | //! | `try_from_str`    | `fn(&str) -> Result<T, E>`            | `::std::str::FromStr::from_str` | | 
|  | //! | `from_os_str`     | `fn(&OsStr) -> T`                     | `::std::convert::From::from`    | | 
|  | //! | `try_from_os_str` | `fn(&OsStr) -> Result<T, OsString>`   | (no default function)           | | 
|  | //! | `from_occurrences`| `fn(u64) -> T`                        | `value as T`                    | | 
|  | //! | `from_flag`       | `fn(bool) -> T`                       | `::std::convert::From::from`    | | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! The `from_occurrences` parser is special. Using `parse(from_occurrences)` | 
|  | //! results in the _number of flags occurrences_ being stored in the relevant | 
|  | //! field or being passed to the supplied function. In other words, it converts | 
|  | //! something like `-vvv` to `3`. This is equivalent to | 
|  | //! `.takes_value(false).multiple(true)`. Note that the default parser can only | 
|  | //! be used with fields of integer types (`u8`, `usize`, `i64`, etc.). | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! The `from_flag` parser is also special. Using `parse(from_flag)` or | 
|  | //! `parse(from_flag = some_func)` will result in the field being treated as a | 
|  | //! flag even if it does not have type `bool`. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! When supplying a custom string parser, `bool` will not be treated specially: | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Type        | Effect            | Added method call to `clap::Arg` | 
|  | //! ------------|-------------------|-------------------------------------- | 
|  | //! `Option<T>` | optional argument | `.takes_value(true).multiple(false)` | 
|  | //! `Vec<T>`    | list of arguments | `.takes_value(true).multiple(true)` | 
|  | //! `T`         | required argument | `.takes_value(true).multiple(false).required(!has_default)` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! In the `try_from_*` variants, the function will run twice on valid input: | 
|  | //! once to validate, and once to parse. Hence, make sure the function is | 
|  | //! side-effect-free. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ## Generics | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! Generic structs and enums can be used. They require explicit trait bounds | 
|  | //! on any generic types that will be used by the `StructOpt` derive macro. In | 
|  | //! some cases, associated types will require additional bounds. See the usage | 
|  | //! of `FromStr` below for an example of this. | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! use std::{fmt, str::FromStr}; | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! // a struct with single custom argument | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct GenericArgs<T: FromStr> where <T as FromStr>::Err: fmt::Display + fmt::Debug { | 
|  | //!     generic_arg_1: String, | 
|  | //!     generic_arg_2: String, | 
|  | //!     custom_arg_1: T, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! or | 
|  | //! | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  | //! # use structopt::StructOpt; | 
|  | //! // a struct with multiple custom arguments in a substructure | 
|  | //! #[derive(StructOpt)] | 
|  | //! struct GenericArgs<T: StructOpt> { | 
|  | //!     generic_arg_1: String, | 
|  | //!     generic_arg_2: String, | 
|  | //!     #[structopt(flatten)] | 
|  | //!     custom_args: T, | 
|  | //! } | 
|  | //! ``` | 
|  |  | 
|  | // those mains are for a reason |
