Class CLI


  • public class CLI
    extends Object
    Interface defining a command-line interface (in other words a command such as 'run', 'ls'...). This interface is polyglot to ease reuse such as in Vert.x Shell.

    A command line interface has a name, and defines a set of options and arguments. Options are key-value pair such as -foo=bar or -flag. The supported formats depend on the used parser. Arguments are unlike options raw values. Options are defined using Option, while argument are defined using Argument.

    Command line interfaces also define a summary and a description. These attributes are used in the usage generation . To disable the help generation, set the hidden attribute to true.

    Command Line Interface object does not contains "value", it's a model. It must be evaluated by a parser that returns a CommandLine object containing the argument and option values.

    NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the original non Mutiny-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.
