<h3 id="aspirations"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#aspirations">§</a>Aspirations</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Out of the box, users get a polished CLI experience
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Including common argument behavior, help generation, suggested fixes for users, colored output, <a href="https://github.com/clap-rs/clap/tree/master/clap_complete">shell completions</a>, etc</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Flexible enough to port your existing CLI interface
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>However, we won’t necessarily streamline support for each use case</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Reasonable parse performance</li>
|
||
<li>Resilient maintainership, including
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Willing to break compatibility rather than batching up breaking changes in large releases</li>
|
||
<li>Leverage feature flags to keep to one active branch</li>
|
||
<li>Being under <a href="https://github.com/rust-cli/team/">WG-CLI</a> to increase the bus factor</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>We follow semver and will wait about 6-9 months between major breaking changes</li>
|
||
<li>We will support the last two minor Rust releases (MSRV, currently 1.74)</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>While these aspirations can be at odds with fast build times and low binary
|
||
size, we will still strive to keep these reasonable for the flexibility you
|
||
get. Check out the
|
||
<a href="https://github.com/rust-cli/argparse-benchmarks-rs">argparse-benchmarks</a> for
|
||
CLI parsers optimized for other use cases.</p>
|
||
<h3 id="example"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#example">§</a>Example</h3>
|
||
<p>Run</p>

||
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="language-console"><code>$ cargo add clap --features derive
|

|
||
<p><em>(See also [feature flag reference][_features])</em></p>

<p>Then define your CLI in <code>main.rs</code>:</p>
