Examples

Let's assume that we have an app that validates json against a json schema. Our app expects 2 files: the first file contains the json and the second file contains the json schema.

Here's an example usage:

$ validate.exe JsonFile.json SchemaFile.schema

You can parse this with the following code:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
  string jsonFile = null;
  string schemaFile = null;

  var options = new Options
  {
    new Option(new string[] {}, s => jsonFile = s, "jsonFile",
      "The file that contains the json you wish to validate"),
    new Option(new string[] {}, s => schemaFile = s, "schemaFile",
      "The file that contains the schema to use for validation")
  };

  if (!options.Parse(args) || jsonFile == null || schemaFile == null)
  {
    options.PrintUsage();
    return;
  }

  // Use jsonFile and schemaFile in your app...
}

If you wish to see the usage run the application and pass it /? or -?:

> validate /?
Usage: validate [-?] <jsonFile> <schemaFile>
