Notice: This is the library formerly known as
github.com/codegangsta/cli -- Github will automatically redirect requests
to this repository, but we recommend updating your references for clarity.
cli is a simple, fast, and fun package for building command line apps in Go. The goal is to enable developers to write fast and distributable command line applications in an expressive way.

Overview
Command line apps are usually so tiny that there is absolutely no reason why your code should not be self-documenting. Things like generating help text and parsing command flags/options should not hinder productivity when writing a command line app.
This is where cli comes into play. cli makes command line programming fun, organized, and expressive!
Installation
Make sure you have a working Go environment. Go version 1.2+ is supported. See the install instructions for Go.
To install cli, simply run:
$ go get github.com/urfave/cli
Make sure your PATH includes the $GOPATH/bin directory so your commands can
be easily used:
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
Supported platforms
cli is tested against multiple versions of Go on Linux, and against the latest
released version of Go on OS X and Windows. For full details, see
./.travis.yml and ./appveyor.yml.
Using the v2 branch
Warning: The v2 branch is currently unreleased and considered unstable.
There is currently a long-lived branch named v2 that is intended to land as
the new master branch once development there has settled down. The current
master branch (mirrored as v1) is being manually merged into v2 on
an irregular human-based schedule, but generally if one wants to "upgrade" to
v2 now and accept the volatility (read: "awesomeness") that comes along with
that, please use whatever version pinning of your preference, such as via
gopkg.in:
$ go get gopkg.in/urfave/cli.v2
...
import (
"gopkg.in/urfave/cli.v2" // imports as package "cli"
)
...
Pinning to the v1 releases
Similarly to the section above describing use of the v2 branch, if one wants
to avoid any unexpected compatibility pains once v2 becomes master, then
pinning to v1 is an acceptable option, e.g.:
$ go get gopkg.in/urfave/cli.v1
...
import (
"gopkg.in/urfave/cli.v1" // imports as package "cli"
)
...
This will pull the latest tagged v1 release (e.g. v1.18.1 at the time of writing).
Getting Started
One of the philosophies behind cli is that an API should be playful and full of
discovery. So a cli app can be as little as one line of code in main().
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
cli.NewApp().Run(os.Args)
}
This app will run and show help text, but is not very useful. Let's give an action to execute and some help documentation:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Name = "boom"
app.Usage = "make an explosive entrance"
app.Action = func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("boom! I say!")
return nil
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Running this already gives you a ton of functionality, plus support for things like subcommands and flags, which are covered below.
Examples
Being a programmer can be a lonely job. Thankfully by the power of automation that is not the case! Let's create a greeter app to fend off our demons of loneliness!
Start by creating a directory named greet, and within it, add a file,
greet.go with the following code in it:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Name = "greet"
app.Usage = "fight the loneliness!"
app.Action = func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("Hello friend!")
return nil
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Install our command to the $GOPATH/bin directory:
$ go install
Finally run our new command:
$ greet
Hello friend!
cli also generates neat help text:
$ greet help
NAME:
greet - fight the loneliness!
USAGE:
greet [global options] command [command options] [arguments...]
VERSION:
0.0.0
COMMANDS:
help, h Shows a list of commands or help for one command
GLOBAL OPTIONS
--version Shows version information
Arguments
You can lookup arguments by calling the Args function on cli.Context, e.g.:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Action = func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Printf("Hello %q", c.Args().Get(0))
return nil
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Flags
Setting and querying flags is simple.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "lang",
Value: "english",
Usage: "language for the greeting",
},
}
app.Action = func(c *cli.Context) error {
name := "Nefertiti"
if c.NArg() > 0 {
name = c.Args().Get(0)
}
if c.String("lang") == "spanish" {
fmt.Println("Hola", name)
} else {
fmt.Println("Hello", name)
}
return nil
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
You can also set a destination variable for a flag, to which the content will be scanned.
package main
import (
"os"
"fmt"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
var language string
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "lang",
Value: "english",
Usage: "language for the greeting",
Destination: &language,
},
}
app.Action = func(c *cli.Context) error {
name := "someone"
if c.NArg() > 0 {
name = c.Args()[0]
}
if language == "spanish" {
fmt.Println("Hola", name)
} else {
fmt.Println("Hello", name)
}
return nil
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
See full list of flags at http://godoc.org/github.com/urfave/cli
Placeholder Values
Sometimes it's useful to specify a flag's value within the usage string itself. Such placeholders are indicated with back quotes.
For example this:
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag{
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "config, c",
Usage: "Load configuration from `FILE`",
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Will result in help output like:
--config FILE, -c FILE Load configuration from FILE
Note that only the first placeholder is used. Subsequent back-quoted words will be left as-is.
Alternate Names
You can set alternate (or short) names for flags by providing a comma-delimited
list for the Name. e.g.
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "lang, l",
Value: "english",
Usage: "language for the greeting",
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
That flag can then be set with --lang spanish or -l spanish. Note that
giving two different forms of the same flag in the same command invocation is an
error.
Ordering
Flags for the application and commands are shown in the order they are defined.
However, it's possible to sort them from outside this library by using FlagsByName
or CommandsByName with sort.
For example this:
package main
import (
"os"
"sort"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "lang, l",
Value: "english",
Usage: "Language for the greeting",
},
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "config, c",
Usage: "Load configuration from `FILE`",
},
}
app.Commands = []cli.Command{
{
Name: "complete",
Aliases: []string{"c"},
Usage: "complete a task on the list",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
return nil
},
},
{
Name: "add",
Aliases: []string{"a"},
Usage: "add a task to the list",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
return nil
},
},
}
sort.Sort(cli.FlagsByName(app.Flags))
sort.Sort(cli.CommandsByName(app.Commands))
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Will result in help output like:
--config FILE, -c FILE Load configuration from FILE
--lang value, -l value Language for the greeting (default: "english")
Values from the Environment
You can also have the default value set from the environment via EnvVar. e.g.
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "lang, l",
Value: "english",
Usage: "language for the greeting",
EnvVar: "APP_LANG",
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
The EnvVar may also be given as a comma-delimited "cascade", where the first
environment variable that resolves is used as the default.
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "lang, l",
Value: "english",
Usage: "language for the greeting",
EnvVar: "LEGACY_COMPAT_LANG,APP_LANG,LANG",
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Values from alternate input sources (YAML, TOML, and others)
There is a separate package altsrc that adds support for getting flag values from other file input sources.
Currently supported input source formats:
- YAML
- TOML
In order to get values for a flag from an alternate input source the following code would be added to wrap an existing cli.Flag like below:
altsrc.NewIntFlag(cli.IntFlag{Name: "test"})
Initialization must also occur for these flags. Below is an example initializing getting data from a yaml file below.
command.Before = altsrc.InitInputSourceWithContext(command.Flags, NewYamlSourceFromFlagFunc("load"))
The code above will use the "load" string as a flag name to get the file name of a yaml file from the cli.Context. It will then use that file name to initialize the yaml input source for any flags that are defined on that command. As a note the "load" flag used would also have to be defined on the command flags in order for this code snipped to work.
Currently only the aboved specified formats are supported but developers can add support for other input sources by implementing the altsrc.InputSourceContext for their given sources.
Here is a more complete sample of a command using YAML support:
package notmain
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
"github.com/urfave/cli/altsrc"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
flags := []cli.Flag{
altsrc.NewIntFlag(cli.IntFlag{Name: "test"}),
cli.StringFlag{Name: "load"},
}
app.Action = func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("yaml ist rad")
return nil
}
app.Before = altsrc.InitInputSourceWithContext(flags, altsrc.NewYamlSourceFromFlagFunc("load"))
app.Flags = flags
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Subcommands
Subcommands can be defined for a more git-like command line app.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Commands = []cli.Command{
{
Name: "add",
Aliases: []string{"a"},
Usage: "add a task to the list",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("added task: ", c.Args().First())
return nil
},
},
{
Name: "complete",
Aliases: []string{"c"},
Usage: "complete a task on the list",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("completed task: ", c.Args().First())
return nil
},
},
{
Name: "template",
Aliases: []string{"t"},
Usage: "options for task templates",
Subcommands: []cli.Command{
{
Name: "add",
Usage: "add a new template",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("new task template: ", c.Args().First())
return nil
},
},
{
Name: "remove",
Usage: "remove an existing template",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("removed task template: ", c.Args().First())
return nil
},
},
},
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Subcommands categories
For additional organization in apps that have many subcommands, you can associate a category for each command to group them together in the help output.
E.g.
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Commands = []cli.Command{
{
Name: "noop",
},
{
Name: "add",
Category: "template",
},
{
Name: "remove",
Category: "template",
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Will include:
COMMANDS:
noop
Template actions:
add
remove
Exit code
Calling App.Run will not automatically call os.Exit, which means that by
default the exit code will "fall through" to being 0. An explicit exit code
may be set by returning a non-nil error that fulfills cli.ExitCoder, or a
cli.MultiError that includes an error that fulfills cli.ExitCoder, e.g.:
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag{
cli.BoolTFlag{
Name: "ginger-crouton",
Usage: "is it in the soup?",
},
}
app.Action = func(ctx *cli.Context) error {
if !ctx.Bool("ginger-crouton") {
return cli.NewExitError("it is not in the soup", 86)
}
return nil
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Bash Completion
You can enable completion commands by setting the EnableBashCompletion
flag on the App object. By default, this setting will only auto-complete to
show an app's subcommands, but you can write your own completion methods for
the App or its subcommands.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
tasks := []string{"cook", "clean", "laundry", "eat", "sleep", "code"}
app := cli.NewApp()
app.EnableBashCompletion = true
app.Commands = []cli.Command{
{
Name: "complete",
Aliases: []string{"c"},
Usage: "complete a task on the list",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
fmt.Println("completed task: ", c.Args().First())
return nil
},
BashComplete: func(c *cli.Context) {
// This will complete if no args are passed
if c.NArg() > 0 {
return
}
for _, t := range tasks {
fmt.Println(t)
}
},
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Enabling
Source the autocomplete/bash_autocomplete file in your .bashrc file while
setting the PROG variable to the name of your program:
PROG=myprogram source /.../cli/autocomplete/bash_autocomplete
Distribution
Copy autocomplete/bash_autocomplete into /etc/bash_completion.d/ and rename
it to the name of the program you wish to add autocomplete support for (or
automatically install it there if you are distributing a package). Don't forget
to source the file to make it active in the current shell.
sudo cp src/bash_autocomplete /etc/bash_completion.d/<myprogram>
source /etc/bash_completion.d/<myprogram>
Alternatively, you can just document that users should source the generic
autocomplete/bash_autocomplete in their bash configuration with $PROG set
to the name of their program (as above).
Customization
The default bash completion flag (--generate-bash-completion) is defined as
cli.BashCompletionFlag, and may be redefined if desired, e.g.:
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
cli.BashCompletionFlag = cli.BoolFlag{
Name: "compgen",
Hidden: true,
}
app := cli.NewApp()
app.EnableBashCompletion = true
app.Commands = []cli.Command{
{
Name: "wat",
},
}
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Generated Help Text
The default help flag (-h/--help) is defined as cli.HelpFlag and is checked
by the cli internals in order to print generated help text for the app, command,
or subcommand, and break execution.
Customization
All of the help text generation may be customized, and at multiple levels. The
templates are exposed as variables AppHelpTemplate, CommandHelpTemplate, and
SubcommandHelpTemplate which may be reassigned or augmented, and full override
is possible by assigning a compatible func to the cli.HelpPrinter variable,
e.g.:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"io"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
// EXAMPLE: Append to an existing template
cli.AppHelpTemplate = fmt.Sprintf(`%s
WEBSITE: http://awesometown.example.com
SUPPORT: support@awesometown.example.com
`, cli.AppHelpTemplate)
// EXAMPLE: Override a template
cli.AppHelpTemplate = `NAME:
{{.Name}} - {{.Usage}}
USAGE:
{{.HelpName}} {{if .VisibleFlags}}[global options]{{end}}{{if .Commands}} command [command options]{{end}} {{if .ArgsUsage}}{{.ArgsUsage}}{{else}}[arguments...]{{end}}
{{if len .Authors}}
AUTHOR:
{{range .Authors}}{{ . }}{{end}}
{{end}}{{if .Commands}}
COMMANDS:
{{range .Commands}}{{if not .HideHelp}} {{join .Names ", "}}{{ "\t"}}{{.Usage}}{{ "\n" }}{{end}}{{end}}{{end}}{{if .VisibleFlags}}
GLOBAL OPTIONS:
{{range .VisibleFlags}}{{.}}
{{end}}{{end}}{{if .Copyright }}
COPYRIGHT:
{{.Copyright}}
{{end}}{{if .Version}}
VERSION:
{{.Version}}
{{end}}
`
// EXAMPLE: Replace the `HelpPrinter` func
cli.HelpPrinter = func(w io.Writer, templ string, data interface{}) {
fmt.Println("Ha HA. I pwnd the help!!1")
}
cli.NewApp().Run(os.Args)
}
The default flag may be customized to something other than -h/--help by
setting cli.HelpFlag, e.g.:
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
cli.HelpFlag = cli.BoolFlag{
Name: "halp, haaaaalp",
Usage: "HALP",
EnvVar: "SHOW_HALP,HALPPLZ",
}
cli.NewApp().Run(os.Args)
}
Version Flag
The default version flag (-v/--version) is defined as cli.VersionFlag, which
is checked by the cli internals in order to print the App.Version via
cli.VersionPrinter and break execution.
Customization
The default flag may be customized to something other than -v/--version by
setting cli.VersionFlag, e.g.:
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
cli.VersionFlag = cli.BoolFlag{
Name: "print-version, V",
Usage: "print only the version",
}
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Name = "partay"
app.Version = "19.99.0"
app.Run(os.Args)
}
Alternatively, the version printer at cli.VersionPrinter may be overridden, e.g.:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
var (
Revision = "fafafaf"
)
func main() {
cli.VersionPrinter = func(c *cli.Context) {
fmt.Printf("version=%s revision=%s\n", c.App.Version, Revision)
}
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Name = "partay"
app.Version = "19.99.0"
app.Run(os.Args)
}

Contribution Guidelines
Feel free to put up a pull request to fix a bug or maybe add a feature. I will give it a code review and make sure that it does not break backwards compatibility. If I or any other collaborators agree that it is in line with the vision of the project, we will work with you to get the code into a mergeable state and merge it into the master branch.
If you have contributed something significant to the project, we will most likely add you as a collaborator. As a collaborator you are given the ability to merge others pull requests. It is very important that new code does not break existing code, so be careful about what code you do choose to merge.
If you feel like you have contributed to the project but have not yet been added as a collaborator, we probably forgot to add you, please open an issue.
