Argc is a powerful Bash framework that simplifies building full-featured CLIs. It lets you define your CLI through comments, focusing on your core logic without dealing with argument parsing, usage text, error messages, and other boilerplate code.
- Effortless Argument Parsing:
- Handles flags, options, positional arguments, and subcommands.
- Validates user input for robust error handling.
- Generates information-rich usage text.
- Maps arguments to corresponding variables.
- Standalone Bash Script Creation:
- Build a bash script that incorporates all functionalities without depending on Argc itself.
- Cross-shell Autocompletion:
- Generate autocompletion scripts for various shells (bash, zsh, fish, powershell, etc.).
- Man Page Generation:
- Automatically create comprehensive man page documentation for your script.
- Environment Variable Integration:
- Define, validate, and bind environment variables to options and positional arguments.
- Task Automation:
- An Bash-based command runner that automates tasks via Argcfile.sh.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility:
- Seamlessly run your Argc-based scripts on macOS, Linux, Windows, and BSD systems.
- Rust Developers:
cargo install argc - Homebrew/Linuxbrew Users:
brew install argc - Pacman Users:
yay -S argc
Alternatively, download pre-built binaries for macOS, Linux, and Windows from GitHub Releases, extract it, and add the argc binary to your $PATH.
