`urfave/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.
|
|
|
|
These are the guides for each major supported version:
|
|
|
|
- [`v2`](./v2/getting-started)
|
|
- [`v1`](./v1/getting-started)
|
|
|
|
In addition to the version-specific guides, these other documents are available:

## Installation
|
|
|
|
Using this package requires a working Go environment. [See the install instructions for Go](http://golang.org/doc/install.html).
|
|
|
|
Go Modules are required when using this package. [See the go blog guide on using Go Modules](https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules).
|
|
|
|
### Using `v2` releases
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ go get github.com/urfave/cli/v2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
...
|
|
import (
|
|
"github.com/urfave/cli/v2" // imports as package "cli"
|
|
)
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Using `v1` releases
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ go get github.com/urfave/cli
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
...
|
|
import (
|
|
"github.com/urfave/cli"
|
|
)
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Build tags
|
|
|
|
You can use the following build tags:
|
|
|
|
#### `urfave_cli_no_docs`
|
|
|
|
When set, this removes `ToMarkdown` and `ToMan` methods, so your application
|
|
won't be able to call those. This reduces the resulting binary size by about
|
|
300-400 KB (measured using Go 1.18.1 on Linux/amd64), due to fewer dependencies.
|
|
|
|
### 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. This project uses GitHub Actions
|
|
for builds. To see our currently supported go versions and platforms, look at
|
|
the [github workflow
|
|
configuration](https://github.com/urfave/cli/blob/main/.github/workflows/cli.yml).
