Shell Arguments for PHP CLI
- Version: v1.0.4
- Date: October 17th 2018
- Release notes
- GitHub repository
A convenience class for loading arguments passed through the command line ($argv
)
- Autoloads from
$argv
, or pass in handcrafted array - Uses the Iterator base class, but adds
find()
to make looking for, and testing, arguments trivial. - Support for most common argument formats
Installation
Shell Arguments for PHP CLI is installed via Composer. To install, use composer require pointybeard/shell-args
or add "pointybeard/shell-args": "~1.0"
to your composer.json
file.
Usage
Include pointybeard\ShellArgs\Lib
in your scripts then create an instance of ArgumentIterator
. It will automatically look for arguments, or you can pass it your own argument string (see below).
Syntax Supported
This library supports the most common argument formats. Specifically -x
,--long
, /x
. It also supports use of =
or :
as a delimiter. The following are examples of supported argument syntax:
-x
--aa
--database=blah
-d:blah
--d blah
--database-name=blah
/d blah
-u http://www.theproject.com
-y something
-p:\Users\pointybeard\Sites\shellargs\
-p:"\Users\pointybeard\Sites"
-h:local:host
/host=local-host
Examples
Running the Test Suite
You can check that all code is passing by running the following command from the shell-args folder:
./vendor/bin/phpunit --bootstrap vendor/autoload.php tests/ArgumentsTest
If you want to run code coverage (e.g. --coverage-html tests/reports/ ...
) you'll need an older version of xdebug (for PHP 5.6). To install this, use the following commands:
pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
pecl install xdebug-2.5.5
You'll need enable xdebug.so
. Try adding the following to /etc/php/5.6/mods-available
; configuration for php xdebug module
; priority=20
zend_extension=/usr/lib/php/20131226/xdebug.so
Then enable it with phpenmod xdebug
. The above works on Ubuntu, however, paths might be different for other distros.
