2009-07-31parse-opt: optionally show "--no-" option stringLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
It is usually better to have positive options, to avoid confusing double negations. However, sometimes it is desirable to show the negative option in the help. Introduce the flag PARSE_OPT_NEGHELP to do that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* sb/parse-options-integer: parse-options: simplify usage argh handling parse-options: make OPT_INTEGER's argh explicit
2009-06-09show-branch: don't use LASTARG_DEFAULT with OPTARGLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-2/+5
5734365 (show-branch: migrate to parse-options API 2009-05-21) incorrectly set the --more option's flags to be PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT and PARSE_OPT_OPTARG. These two flags shouldn't be used together. An option taking a default should just set the default value desired and parse options will take care of the rest. Update the header comment to better convey this information.

2009-06-06parse-options: simplify usage argh handlingLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-7/+13
Simplify the argh printing by simply calling usage_argh() if the option can take an argument. Update macros defined in parse-options.h to set the PARSE_OPT_NOARG flag. The only other user of custom non-argument taking options is git-apply (in this case OPTION_BOOLEAN for deprecated options). Update it to set the PARSE_OPT_NOARG flag. Thanks to Ren辿 Scharfe for the suggestion and starter patch.

2009-06-06parse-options: make OPT_INTEGER's argh explicitLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-1/+1
OPTION_INTEGER hardcodes its argh member to be "n", but the decision is hidden deep in usage_with_options_internal(). Make "n" the default argh for the OPT_INTEGER macro while leaving it undecided for the OPTION_INTEGER enum. This makes it less surprising to users that argh is "n" when using the OPT_INTEGER macro.

2009-05-25parse-opts: add OPT_FILENAME and transition builtinsLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-2/+3
Commit dbd0f5c (Files given on the command line are relative to $cwd, 2008-08-06) introduced parse_options_fix_filename() as a minimal fix. OPT_FILENAME is intended to be a more robust fix for the same issue. OPT_FILENAME and its associated enum OPTION_FILENAME are used to represent filename options within the parse options API. This option is similar to OPTION_STRING. If --no is prefixed to the option the filename is unset. If no argument is given and the default value is set, the filename is set to the default value. The difference is that the filename is prefixed with the prefix passed to parse_options() (or parse_options_start()). Update git-apply, git-commit, git-fmt-merge-msg, and git-tag to use OPT_FILENAME with their filename options. Also, rename parse_options_fix_filename() to fix_filename() as it is no longer extern.

2009-05-25parse-opts: prepare for OPT_FILENAMELibravatar Stephen Boyd1-2/+4
To give OPT_FILENAME the prefix, we pass the prefix to parse_options() which passes the prefix to parse_options_start() which sets the prefix member of parse_opts_ctx accordingly. If there isn't a prefix in the calling context, passing NULL will suffice. Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-05-22parse-options: add PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP for complicated argh'sLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-0/+4
Usually, the argh element in struct option points at a placeholder value (e.g. "val"), and is shown in the usage message as --option=<val> by enclosing the string inside of angle brackets. When the option is more complex (e.g. optional arguments separated by a comma), you would want to produce a usage message that looks like --option=<val1>[,<val2>] In such a case, the caller can pass a string to argh with placeholders already enclosed in necessary angle brackets (e.g. "<val1>[,<val2>]") and set this flag.

2008-08-06Files given on the command line are relative to $cwdLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
When running "git commit -F file" and "git tag -F file" from a subdirectory, we should take it as relative to the directory we started from, not relative to the top-level directory. This adds a helper function "parse_options_fix_filename()" to make it more convenient to fix this class of issues. Ideally, parse_options() should support a new type of option, "OPT_FILENAME", to do this uniformly, but this patch is meant to go to 'maint' to fix it minimally. One thing to note is that value for "commit template file" that comes from the command line is taken as relative to $cwd just like other parameters, but when it comes from the configuration varilable 'commit.template', it is taken as relative to the working tree root as before. I think this difference actually is sensible (not that I particularly think commit.template itself is sensible). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-09parse-options: add PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT flagLibravatar Pierre Habouzit1-0/+1
If you set this for a given option, and the optoin appears without an argument on the command line, then the `defval' is used as its argument. Note that this flag is meaningless in presence of OPTARG or NOARG flags. (in the current implementation it will be ignored, but don't rely on it).

2008-06-30parse-opt: fake short strings for callers to believe in.Libravatar Pierre Habouzit1-0/+5
If we begin to parse -abc and that the parser knew about -a and -b, it will fake a -c switch for the caller to deal with. Of course in the case of -acb (supposing -c is not taking an argument) the caller will have to be especially clever to do the same thing.

2007-10-29parse-options: make some arguments optional, add callbacks.Libravatar Pierre Habouzit1-0/+16
* add the possibility to use callbacks to parse some options, this can help implementing new options kinds with great flexibility. struct option gains a callback pointer and a `defval' where callbacks user can put either integers or pointers. callbacks also can use the `value' pointer for anything, preferably to the pointer to the final storage for the value though. * add a `flag' member to struct option to make explicit that this option may have an optional argument. The semantics depends on the option type. For INTEGERS, it means that if the switch is not used in its --long-form=<value> form, and that there is no token after it or that the token does not starts with a digit, then it's assumed that the switch has no argument. For STRING or CALLBACK it works the same, except that the condition is that the next atom starts with a dash. This is needed to implement backward compatible behaviour with existing ways to parse the command line. Its use for new options is discouraged.

2007-10-29Add a simple option parser.Libravatar Pierre Habouzit1-0/+35
The option parser takes argc, argv, an array of struct option and a usage string. Each of the struct option elements in the array describes a valid option, its type and a pointer to the location where the value is written. The entry point is parse_options(), which scans through the given argv, and matches each option there against the list of valid options. During the scan, argv is rewritten to only contain the non-option command line arguments and the number of these is returned. Aggregation of single switches is allowed: -rC0 is the same as -r -C 0 (supposing that -C wants an arg). Every long option automatically support the option with the same name, prefixed with 'no-' to unset the switch. It assumes that initial value for strings are "NULL" and for integers is "0". Long options are supported either with '=' or without: --some-option=foo is the same as --some-option foo Acked-by: Kristian Høgsberg <krh@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit <madcoder@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
