Something happened to the spec options

[emosbaugh]

Problem statement

Swagger generate spec no longer works

$ swagger generate spec -b ./api/v1/ -o ./spec/v1/api.json
unknown flag `b'

$ go run swagger.go generate spec -h
Usage:
  swagger [OPTIONS] generate spec [spec-OPTIONS]

generate a swagger spec document from a go application

Application Options:
  -q, --quiet                  silence logs
      --log-output=LOG-FILE    redirect logs to file

Help Options:
  -h, --help                   Show this help message

[spec command options]
      -w, --work-dir=          the base path to use (default: .)
      -t, --tags=              build tags
      -m, --scan-models        includes models that were annotated with 'swagger:model'
          --compact            when present, doesn't prettify the json
      -o, --output=            the file to write to
      -i, --input=             the file to use as input
      -c, --include=           include packages matching pattern
      -x, --exclude=           exclude packages matching pattern
          --include-tag=       include routes having specified tags (can be specified many times)
          --exclude-tag=       exclude routes having specified tags (can be specified many times)

Steps to reproduce

$ go get -u github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger
$ swagger generate spec -b ./api/v1/ -o ./spec/v1/api.json
unknown flag `b'

Environment

swagger version: master
go version: 1.12.5
OS: linux

[casualjim]

On master there is a new version of the scanner, which works a little bit differently but supports go modules and running outside of the gopath.

You can just omit -b now or provide it as positional arguments

these should be equivalent:

# most explicit
swagger generate spec -w ./api/v1 -o ./spec/v1/api.json ./...
# set the working directory
swagger generate spec -w ./api/v1 -o ./spec/v1/api.json
# equivalent of original command
swagger generate spec -o ./spec/v1/api.json ./api/v1/...
