# Include this module to gain access to the "canonical command-line app structure"
# DSL. This is a *very* lightweight layer on top of what you might
# normally write that gives you just a bit of help to keep your code structured
# in a sensible way. You can use as much or as little as you want, though
# you must at least use #main to get any benefits.
#
# You also get a more expedient interface to OptionParser as well
# as checking for required arguments to your app. For example, if
# we want our app to accept a negatable switch named "switch", a flag
# named "flag", and two arguments "needed" (which is required)
# and "maybe" which is optional, we can do the following:
#
# #!/usr/bin/env ruby -w
#
# require 'methadone'
#
# include Methadone::Main
#
# main do |needed, maybe|
# options[:switch] => true or false, based on command line
# options[:flag] => value of flag passed on command line
# end
#
# # Proxy to an OptionParser instance's on method
# on("--[no]-switch")
# on("--flag VALUE")
#
# arg :needed
# arg :maybe, :optional
#
# go!
#
# Our app then acts as follows:
#
# $ our_app
# # => parse error: 'needed' is required
# $ our_app foo
# # => succeeds; "maybe" in main is nil
#
# This also includes Methadone::CLILogging to give you access to simple logging
module Main
include Methadone::CLILogging
# Declare the main method for your app.
# This allows you to specify the general logic of your
# app at the top of your bin file, but can rely on any methods
# or other code that you define later.
#
# For example, suppose you want to process a set of files, but
# wish to determine that list from another method to keep your
# code clean.
#
# #!/usr/bin/env ruby -w
#
# require 'methadone'
#
# include Methadone::Main
#
# main do
# files_to_process.each do |file|
# # process file
# end
# end
#
# def files_to_process
# # return list of files
# end
#
# go!
#
# The block can accept any parameters, and unparsed arguments
# from the command line will be passed.
#
# To run this method, call #go!
