PHP CommandLine argument and option parser
Purpose of this project is to provide modern and complete API for command line argument and option parsing in CLI.
CommandLine generics
When you type ENV=prod php -d "error_reporting=E_ALL" script.php test --debug only last command line components are visible
in script.php scope at runtime.
Following analysis such command line consists of:
ENV=prod // this is shell way for setting environment variables per process
php // this part is pointing to php interpreter
-d "error_reporting=E_ALL" // this part holds php interpreter options
script.php // visible at runtime script filename
test // visible at runtime arguments
--debug // visible at runtime options
Runtime command line generic components are: command + arguments + options.
Examples
The simplest way to retrieve parameters from CLI with definitions:
$commandLine = (new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\CommandLineBuilder())
->withArgument('command')
->withOption('file', 'f')
->withOption('count', 'c', true)
->build($_SERVER['argv'], $_SERVER['PWD']);The simplest way to retrieve parameters from CLI without definition:
$parser = new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\ArrayCommandLineParser($_SERVER['argv']);
$commandLine = $parser->parse();Which for php test.php command --env=prod --debug -f -c gives:
PHP\CLI\CommandLine Object
(
[command:protected] => test.php
[parameters:protected] => Array
(
[0] => PHP\CLI\Argument Object
(
[name:protected] => arg0
[value:protected] => command
)
[1] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => env
[value:protected] => prod
)
[2] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => debug
[value:protected] =>
)
[3] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => f
[value:protected] =>
)
[4] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => c
[value:protected] => 1
)
)
[cwd:protected] => /home/brzuchal/Workspace/command-line
)
There is also a way to retrieve parameters with it's definitions and their requirements:
$definition = new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\Definition([
new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\ArgumentDefinition('command'),
new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\OptionDefinition('env', 'e'),
new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\OptionDefinition('file', 'f'),
new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\OptionDefinition('count', 'c'),
]);
$parser = new \Brzuchal\CommandLine\ArrayParameterParser($_SERVER['argv']);
$parameters = $parser->parse();Which also validates if options have values and are required.
Parsing command php test.php command --env=prod --debug -f -c gives:
PHP\CLI\CommandLine Object
(
[command:protected] => test.php
[parameters:protected] => Array
(
[0] => PHP\CLI\Argument Object
(
[name:protected] => command
[value:protected] => command
)
[1] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => env
[value:protected] => prod
)
[2] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => debug
[value:protected] =>
)
[3] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => file
[value:protected] =>
)
[4] => PHP\CLI\Option Object
(
[name:protected] => count
[value:protected] => 1
)
)
[cwd:protected] => /home/brzuchal/Workspace/command-line
)
TODO
- Parse options from array
- Parse options from string
- Validates required values
- Provide default values
- Parse arguments from array
- Parse arguments from string
- Validates existence of arguments
