oh hi, i needed (well, wanted) a command line parser more like opt parser in ruby so i threw one together:
https://github.com/gar3thjon3s/clargon thought i would share in case anyone else finds it useful. im aware of with-command-line but it didnt quite do what i wanted as i needed functions that parse things and i generally want the config as a map. suggestions for improvements welcome. cheers, gaz Example: (clargon args (required ["-p" "--port" "the port for the server"] #(Integer. %) (optional ["--host" "hostname of server" :default "localhost"]) (optional ["--verbose" "run in chatty mode" :default true]) (optional ["--log-directory" "where you put logs" :default "/some/path"]))) with args of: '("-p" "8080" "--no-verbose" "--log-directory" "/tmp") will produce a clojure map with the names picked out for you as keywords: {:port 8080 :host "localhost" :verbose false :log-directory "/tmp"} A flag of -h or --help is provided which will currently give a documentation string: Usage: Switches Desc Default Required -------- ---- ------- -------- -p, --port the port for the server Yes --host hostname of server localhost No --verbose run in chatty mode true No --log-directory where you put logs /some/path No -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
