App::Easer - Simplify writing (hierarchical) CLI applications
This document describes App::Easer version {{[ version ]}}.
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use v5.24;
use experimental 'signatures';
use App::Easer V2 => 'run';
my $app = {
aliases => ['foo'],
help => 'this is the main app',
description => 'Yes, this really is the main app',
options => [
{
name => 'foo',
help => 'option foo!',
getopt => 'foo|f=s',
environment => 'FOO',
default => 'bar',
},
],
execute => sub ($instance) {
my $foo = $instance->config('foo');
say "Hello, $foo!";
return 0;
},
default_child => '-self', # run execute by default
children => [
{
aliases => ['bar'],
help => 'this is a sub-command',
description => 'Yes, this is a sub-command',
execute => sub { 'Peace!' },
},
],
};
exit run($app, $0, @ARGV);
NOTE: this software should be considered "late alpha" maturity. I'm
mostly happy with the interface, but there are still a few things that
might get changed. Anyway, if you find a release of App::Easer to
work fine for you, it's fair to assume that you will not need to get a
newer one later.
App::Easer provides the scaffolding for implementing hierarchical command-line applications in a very fast way.
Development today happens only in App::Easer::V2. The legacy interface is still available in App::Easer::V1, which is also the default but has its own documentation.
Minimum perl version 5.24.
