ikskuh/zig-args: Simple-to-use argument parser with struct-based config

Simple-to-use argument parser with struct-based config

• Automatic option generation from a config struct
• Familiar look & feel:
  • Everything after the first -- is assumed to be a positional argument
  • A single - is interpreted as a positional argument which can be used as the stdin/stdout file placeholder
  • Short options with no argument can be combined into a single argument: -dfe
  • Long options can use either --option=value or --option value syntax (use --option=-- if you need -- as a long option argument)
  • verbs (sub-commands), with verb specific options. Non-verb specific (global) options can come before or after the verb on the command line. Non-verb option arguments are processed before determining verb. (see demo_verb.zig)
• Integrated support for primitive types:
  • All integer types (signed & unsigned)
  • Floating point types
  • Booleans (takes optional argument. If no argument given, the bool is set, otherwise, one of yes, true, y, no, false, n is interpreted)
  • Strings
  • Enumerations

Add the dependency in your build.zig.zon by running the following command:

zig fetch --save=args git+https://github.com/ikskuh/zig-args#master

Add it to your exe in build.zig:

exe.root_module.addImport("args", b.dependency("args", .{ .target = target, .optimize = optimize }).module("args"));

Then you can import it from your code:

const argsParser = @import("args");

const options = argsParser.parseForCurrentProcess(struct {
    // This declares long options for double hyphen
    output: ?[]const u8 = null,
    @"with-offset": bool = false,
    @"with-hexdump": bool = false,
    @"intermix-source": bool = false,
    numberOfBytes: ?i32 = null,
    signed_number: ?i64 = null,
    unsigned_number: ?u64 = null,
    mode: enum { default, special, slow, fast } = .default,

    // This declares short-hand options for single hyphen
    pub const shorthands = .{
        .S = "intermix-source",
        .b = "with-hexdump",
        .O = "with-offset",
        .o = "output",
    };
}, argsAllocator, .print) catch return 1;
defer options.deinit();

std.debug.print("executable name: {?s}\n", .{options.executable_name});

std.debug.print("parsed options:\n", .{});
inline for (std.meta.fields(@TypeOf(options.options))) |fld| {
    std.debug.print("\t{s} = {any}\n", .{
        fld.name,
        @field(options.options, fld.name),
    });
}

std.debug.print("parsed positionals:\n", .{});
for (options.positionals) |arg| {
    std.debug.print("\t'{s}'\n", .{arg});
}
