This was introduced by #36, but only worked in the specific case of all arguments being passed before all flags. If the user mixed them, they ended up with odd parsing behavior where the arguments were reordered (causing #103 and #355). Given the tradeoffs I think we should remove support for flag reordering. Fixes #103 Fixes #355

|
**ATTN**: This project uses [semantic versioning](http://semver.org/).
|
|
|
|
## 2.0.0 - (unreleased 2.x series)
|
|
### Added
|
|
- `NewStringSlice` and `NewIntSlice` for creating their related types
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
- the ability to specify `&StringSlice{...string}` or `&IntSlice{...int}`.
|
|
To migrate to the new API, you may choose to run [this helper
|
|
(python) script](./cli-migrate-slice-types).
|
|
- The optimistic reordering of arguments and flags introduced by
|
|
https://github.com/codegangsta/cli/pull/36. This behavior only worked when
|
|
all arguments appeared before all flags, but caused [weird issues with boolean
|
|
flags](https://github.com/codegangsta/cli/issues/103) and [reordering of the
|
|
arguments](https://github.com/codegangsta/cli/issues/355) when the user
|
|
attempted to mix flags and arguments. Given the trade-offs we removed support
|
|
for this reordering.
|
|
|
|
## [Unreleased] - (1.x series)
|
|
### Added
|
|
- Pluggable flag-level help text rendering via `cli.DefaultFlagStringFunc`
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
- `Float64Flag`, `IntFlag`, and `DurationFlag` default values are no longer
|
|
quoted in help text output.
|
|
- All flag types now include `(default: {value})` strings following usage when a
|
|
default value can be (reasonably) detected.
|
|
- `IntSliceFlag` and `StringSliceFlag` usage strings are now more consistent
|
|
with non-slice flag types
|
|
|
|
## [1.16.0] - 2016-05-02
|
|
### Added
|
|
- `Hidden` field on all flag struct types to omit from generated help text
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
- `BashCompletionFlag` (`--enable-bash-completion`) is now omitted from
|
|
generated help text via the `Hidden` field
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
- handling of error values in `HandleAction` and `HandleExitCoder`
|
|
|
|
## [1.15.0] - 2016-04-30
|
|
### Added
|
|
- This file!
|
|
- Support for placeholders in flag usage strings
|
|
- `App.Metadata` map for arbitrary data/state management
|
|
- `Set` and `GlobalSet` methods on `*cli.Context` for altering values after
|
|
parsing.
|
|
- Support for nested lookup of dot-delimited keys in structures loaded from
|
|
YAML.
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
- The `App.Action` and `Command.Action` now prefer a return signature of
|
|
`func(*cli.Context) error`, as defined by `cli.ActionFunc`. If a non-nil
|
|
`error` is returned, there may be two outcomes:
|
|
- If the error fulfills `cli.ExitCoder`, then `os.Exit` will be called
|
|
automatically
|
|
- Else the error is bubbled up and returned from `App.Run`
|
|
- Specifying an `Action` with the legacy return signature of
|
|
`func(*cli.Context)` will produce a deprecation message to stderr
|
|
- Specifying an `Action` that is not a `func` type will produce a non-zero exit
|
|
from `App.Run`
|
|
- Specifying an `Action` func that has an invalid (input) signature will
|
|
produce a non-zero exit from `App.Run`
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
- <a name="deprecated-cli-app-runandexitonerror"></a>
|
|
`cli.App.RunAndExitOnError`, which should now be done by returning an error
|
|
that fulfills `cli.ExitCoder` to `cli.App.Run`.
|
|
- <a name="deprecated-cli-app-action-signature"></a> the legacy signature for
|
|
`cli.App.Action` of `func(*cli.Context)`, which should now have a return
|
|
signature of `func(*cli.Context) error`, as defined by `cli.ActionFunc`.
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
- Added missing `*cli.Context.GlobalFloat64` method
|
|
|
