cli

cli is a simple, fast, and fun package for building command line apps in Go. The goal is to enable developers to write fast and distributable command line applications in an expressive way.

Usage Documentation

Usage documentation exists for each major version. Don't know what version you're on? You're probably using the version from the master branch, which is currently v2.

v2 - ./docs/v2/manual.md
v1 - ./docs/v1/manual.md

Installation

Make sure you have a working Go environment. Go version 1.11+ is supported. See the install instructions for Go.

Go Modules are strongly recommended when using this package. See the go blog guide on using Go Modules.
