Pronounced like eclair
|
|
|
|
The core of a command line application allowing for trivial user extension.
|
|
|
|
Every command and subcommand is its own `.lua` file that is either shipped as
|
|
part of the built-in cartridge of commands or a plugin that the user installs.
|
|
|
|
The core contains the following:
|
|
|
|
- A module loading system for preparing different commands for use
|
|
- The core subcommand router
|
|
|
|
## How to write plugins
|
|
|
|
Create a new file in the script home named after the plugin subcommand, for
|
|
example: `scripts/hello.lua`:
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
script.verb = "hello"
|
|
script.help = "prints everyone's favorite hello world message"
|
|
script.author = "Xe" -- put your github username here
|
|
script.version = "1.0"
|
|
script.usage = ""
|
|
|
|
function(run)
|
|
print "Hello, world!"
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And then run it using the example shell cli:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
~/go/src/github.com/Xe/eclier:master λ go run ./example/main.go hello
|
|
Hello, world!
|
|
```
