module Cri # Cri::OptionParser is used for parsing commandline options. class OptionParser # Error that will be raised when an unknown option is encountered. class IllegalOptionError < RuntimeError ; end # Error that will be raised when an option without argument is # encountered. class OptionRequiresAnArgumentError < RuntimeError ; end # Parses the commandline arguments in +arguments_and_options+, using the # commandline option definitions in +definitions+. # # +arguments_and_options+ is an array of commandline arguments and # options. This will usually be +ARGV+. # # +definitions+ contains a list of hashes defining which options are # allowed and how they will be handled. Such a hash has three keys: # # :short:: The short name of the option, e.g. +a+. Do not include the '-' # prefix. # # :long:: The long name of the option, e.g. +all+. Do not include the '--' # prefix. # # :argument:: Whether this option's argument is required (:required), # optional (:optional) or forbidden (:forbidden). # # A sample array of definition hashes could look like this: # # [ # { :short => 'a', :long => 'all', :argument => :forbidden }, # { :short => 'p', :long => 'port', :argument => :required }, # ] # # During parsing, two errors can be raised: # # IllegalOptionError:: An unrecognised option was encountered, i.e. an # option that is not present in the list of option # definitions. # # OptionRequiresAnArgumentError:: An option was found that did not have a # value, even though this value was # required. # # What will be returned, is a hash with two keys, :arguments and :options. # The :arguments value contains a list of arguments, and the :options # value contains a hash with key-value pairs for each option. Options # without values will have a +nil+ value instead. # # For example, the following commandline options (which should not be # passed as a string, but as an array of strings): # # foo -xyz -a hiss -s -m please --level 50 --father=ani -n luke squeak # # with the following option definitions: # # [ # { :short => 'x', :long => 'xxx', :argument => :forbidden }, # { :short => 'y', :long => 'yyy', :argument => :forbidden }, # { :short => 'z', :long => 'zzz', :argument => :forbidden }, # { :short => 'a', :long => 'all', :argument => :forbidden }, # { :short => 's', :long => 'stuff', :argument => :optional }, # { :short => 'm', :long => 'more', :argument => :optional }, # { :short => 'l', :long => 'level', :argument => :required }, # { :short => 'f', :long => 'father', :argument => :required }, # { :short => 'n', :long => 'name', :argument => :required } # ] # # will be translated into: # # { # :arguments => [ 'foo', 'hiss', 'squeak' ], # :options => { # :xxx => true, # :yyy => true, # :zzz => true, # :all => true, # :stuff => true, # :more => 'please', # :level => '50', # :father => 'ani', # :name => 'luke' # } # } def self.parse(arguments_and_options, definitions) # Don't touch original argument unprocessed_arguments_and_options = arguments_and_options.dup # Initialize arguments = [] options = {} # Determines whether we've passed the '--' marker or not no_more_options = false loop do # Get next item e = unprocessed_arguments_and_options.shift break if e.nil? # Handle end-of-options marker if e == '--' no_more_options = true # Handle incomplete options elsif e =~ /^--./ and !no_more_options # Get option key, and option value if included if e =~ /^--([^=]+)=(.+)$/ option_key = $1 option_value = $2 else option_key = e[2..-1] option_value = nil end # Find definition definition = definitions.find { |d| d[:long] == option_key } raise IllegalOptionError.new(option_key) if definition.nil? if [ :required, :optional ].include?(definition[:argument]) # Get option value if necessary if option_value.nil? option_value = unprocessed_arguments_and_options.shift if option_value.nil? || option_value =~ /^-/ if definition[:argument] == :required raise OptionRequiresAnArgumentError.new(option_key) else unprocessed_arguments_and_options.unshift(option_value) option_value = true end end end # Store option options[definition[:long].to_sym] = option_value else # Store option options[definition[:long].to_sym] = true end # Handle -xyz options elsif e =~ /^-./ and !no_more_options # Get option keys option_keys = e[1..-1].scan(/./) # For each key option_keys.each do |option_key| # Find definition definition = definitions.find { |d| d[:short] == option_key } raise IllegalOptionError.new(option_key) if definition.nil? if option_keys.length > 1 and definition[:argument] == :required # This is a combined option and it requires an argument, so complain raise OptionRequiresAnArgumentError.new(option_key) elsif [ :required, :optional ].include?(definition[:argument]) # Get option value option_value = unprocessed_arguments_and_options.shift if option_value.nil? || option_value =~ /^-/ if definition[:argument] == :required raise OptionRequiresAnArgumentError.new(option_key) else unprocessed_arguments_and_options.unshift(option_value) option_value = true end end # Store option options[definition[:long].to_sym] = option_value else # Store option options[definition[:long].to_sym] = true end end # Handle normal arguments else arguments << e end end { :options => options, :arguments => arguments } end end end
