A powerful option parser toolkit for PHP, supporting type constraints, flag, multiple flag, multiple values and required value checking.

GetOptionKit supports PHP5.3, with fine unit testing with PHPUnit testing framework.

GetOptionKit is object-oriented, it's flexible and extendable.

Powering PHPBrew https://github.com/phpbrew/phpbrew, CLIFramework https://github.com/c9s/CLIFramework and AssetKit https://github.com/c9s/AssetKit

Features

  • Simple format.
  • Type constrant.
  • Multiple value, requried value, optional value checking.
  • Auto-generated help text from defined options.
  • Support app/subcommand option parsing.
  • Option Value Validator
  • Option Suggestions
  • SPL library.
  • HHVM support.

Requirements

  • PHP 5.3+

Install From Composer

composer require corneltek/getoptionkit

Supported Option Formats

simple flags:

program.php -a -b -c program.php -abc program.php -vvv # incremental flag v=3 program.php -a -bc

with multiple values:

program.php -a foo -a bar -a zoo -b -b -b

specify value with equal sign:

program.php -a=foo program.php --long=foo

with normal arguments:

program.php -a=foo -b=bar arg1 arg2 arg3 program.php arg1 arg2 arg3 -a=foo -b=bar 

Option SPEC

v|verbose flag option (with boolean value true) d|dir: option require a value (MUST require) d|dir+ option with multiple values. d|dir? option with optional value dir:=string option with type constraint of string dir:=number option with type constraint of number dir:=file option with type constraint of file dir:=date option with type constraint of date dir:=boolean option with type constraint of boolean d single character only option dir long option name 

Command Line Forms

app [app-opts] [app arguments] app [app-opts] subcommand [subcommand-opts] [subcommand-args] app [app-opts] subcmd1 [subcmd-opts1] subcmd2 [subcmd-opts] subcmd3 [subcmd-opts3] [subcommand arguments....] 

Documentation

Demo

Please check examples/demo.php.

Run:

% php examples/demo.php -f test -b 123 -b 333

Print:

* Available options: -f, --foo <value> option requires a value. -b, --bar <value>+ option with multiple value. -z, --zoo [<value>] option with optional value. -v, --verbose verbose message. -d, --debug debug message. --long long option name only. -s short option name only. Enabled options: * key:foo spec:-f, --foo <value> desc:option requires a value. value => test * key:bar spec:-b, --bar <value>+ desc:option with multiple value. Array ( [0] => 123 [1] => 333 )

Option Value Type

The option value type help you validate the input, the following list is the current supported types:

  • string
  • number
  • boolean
  • file
  • date
  • url
  • email
  • ip
  • ipv4
  • ipv6
  • regex

And here is the related sample code:

$opt->add( 'f|foo:' , 'with string type value' ) ->isa('string'); $opt->add( 'b|bar+' , 'with number type value' ) ->isa('number'); $opt->add( 'z|zoo?' , 'with boolean type value' ) ->isa('boolean'); $opt->add( 'file:' , 'with file type value' ) ->isa('file'); $opt->add( 'date:' , 'with date type value' ) ->isa('date'); $opt->add( 'url:' , 'with url type value' ) ->isa('url'); $opt->add( 'email:' , 'with email type value' ) ->isa('email'); $opt->add( 'ip:' , 'with ip(v4/v6) type value' ) ->isa('ip'); $opt->add( 'ipv4:' , 'with ipv4 type value' ) ->isa('ipv4'); $opt->add( 'ipv6:' , 'with ipv6 type value' ) ->isa('ipv6'); $specs->add('r|regex:', 'with custom regex type value') ->isa('Regex', '/^([a-z]+)$/');

Please note that currently only string, number, boolean types can be validated.

ContinuousOptionParser

$specs = newOptionCollection; $spec_verbose = $specs->add('v|verbose'); $spec_color = $specs->add('c|color'); $spec_debug = $specs->add('d|debug'); $spec_verbose->description = 'verbose flag'; // ContinuousOptionParser$parser = newContinuousOptionParser( $specs ); $result = $parser->parse(explode('','program -v -d test -a -b -c subcommand -e -f -g subcommand2')); $result2 = $parser->continueParse();

OptionPrinter

GetOptionKit\OptionPrinter can print options for you:

* Available options: -f, --foo option requires a value. -b, --bar option with multiple value. -z, --zoo option with optional value. -v, --verbose verbose message. -d, --debug debug message. --long long option name only. -s short option name only. 

Command-line app with subcommands

For application with subcommands is designed by following form:

[app name] [app opts] [subcommand1] [subcommand-opts] [subcommand2] [subcommand-opts] [subcommand3] [subcommand-opts] [arguments] 

You can check the tests/GetOptionKit/ContinuousOptionParserTest.php unit test file:

// subcommand stack$subcommands = array('subcommand1','subcommand2','subcommand3'); // different command has its own options$subcommandSpecs = array( 'subcommand1' => $cmdspecs, 'subcommand2' => $cmdspecs, 'subcommand3' => $cmdspecs, ); // for saved options$subcommandOptions = array(); // command arguments$arguments = array(); $argv = explode('','program -v -d -c subcommand1 -a -b -c subcommand2 -c subcommand3 arg1 arg2 arg3'); // parse application options first$parser = newContinuousOptionParser( $appspecs ); $app_options = $parser->parse( $argv ); while (! $parser->isEnd()){if (@$subcommands[0] && $parser->getCurrentArgument() == $subcommands[0]){$parser->advance(); $subcommand = array_shift( $subcommands ); $parser->setSpecs( $subcommandSpecs[$subcommand] ); $subcommandOptions[ $subcommand ] = $parser->continueParse()} else{$arguments[] = $parser->advance()} }

Todo

  • Option Spec group.
  • option valid value checking.
  • custom command mapping.

Command Line Utility Design Concept

  • main program name should be easy to type, easy to remember.
  • subcommand should be easy to type, easy to remember. length should be shorter than 7 characters.
  • options should always have long descriptive name
  • a program should be easy to check usage.

General command interface

To list usage of all subcommands or the program itself:

$ prog help 

To list the subcommand usage

$ prog help subcommand subcommand2 subcommand3
