Installation

You can download only the bin file and work with it, or integrate arvodia-cli into your project with composer.

composer require arvodia/arvodia-cli
mkdir -p src/Arvodia
cp -r vendor/arvodia/arvodia-cli/src/Arvodia/Command/ src/Arvodia/
ln -s ../vendor/arvodia/arvodia-cli/bin/terminal bin/app_name

to execute

php bin/app_name

Commands

Class Commands can be integrated directly in the bin/terminal file, if you want to use a single file for your executable.

You can also create PHP files in the src/Arvodia/Command folder, the files must be suffixed with Command, for example NameCommand.php, with a class of the same name as the file, the commands is automatically detected by arvodia-cli.

The class must also contain an execute() method, the options passed in the command line will be injected into the parameters of the execute() function. in the functions you must always start with the require parameter then optional.

Example

class ExampleCommand extends ArvodiaCli {
    protected const DESCRIPTION = 'Example commands';
    protected const HELP = 'HELP commands text';
    /**
     * 
     * @option(param=requise,short=r, message="the parameter requires a value")
     * @option(param=optionnel,short=o, message="parameter value is optional")
     */
    public function execute(string $requise, string $optionnel = 'hello')
	{
        $this->show($optionnel . ' ' . $requise . '!');
		$this->show('Verbosity levels is : ' . VERBOSE);
    }
}

Annotations

Annotations are optional, it serves to add a shortcut for your option and a description.

Syntax

It must be placed in @option(), and it is necessary to declare the param that contains the name of the variable in the parameters of your execute method

Input Arguments

The name of the first argument to find is the name of the command to execute Note: it can be placed at the beginning or in the middle or at the end.

• A parameter without a default value (the parameter requires a value) // required value
  • Note: If a value is required, it doesn't matter which string it next assigns to it.
• A parameter with default value (the parameter value is optional)
  • Note: Optional values do not accept space as a separator.
• A parameter with type bool, boolean:
  • These options do not accept any value if there is a default value, it will just revert to true if it is found.
  • With required value, These options accept the values "1", "true", "on", "yes", "0", "false", "off" and "no"
  • Possible multiple short name with a default value, example -abc

Note: The script will stop when the first bad option is found.
