```go
package main
import (
"github.com/spf13/cobra"
"github.com/spf13/pflag"
)
func main() {
cmd := &cobra.Command{
Use: "min",
Short: "minimal command",
Run: func(_ *cobra.Command, _ []string) {},
}
pflag.String("oncmdline", "oncmdline", "oncmdline")
cmd.Execute()
}
```
Is a minimal cobra program. When --help is displayed without this patch
you only get:
But with the patch --oncmdline is shows under flags.
This first `cd` to a specified directory, then
lists the subdirectories therein with `_filedir -d`.
This can be used by e.g. `hugo --theme=[Tab][Tab]`, which would
give a list of subdirectories under the `themes` directory.
The template had gotten out of control. It was basically unparsable.
This does a little more work in functions and a little less in the
template. Overall it should be basically the same. It might output the
'additional help topics' in a couple of fewer places, but I doubt people
complain too much...
Calling `cobra-test echo times one two turkey` where `one` and `two` are
valid arguments but `turkey` is not now results in.
Error: invalid argument "turkey" for "cobra-test echo times"
Run 'cobra-test echo times --help' for usage.
Inside Command.Execute() we were checking for pflag.ErrHelp. But
Command.execute() never returns that value. It just complicates the code
and isn't used.
We had lots of quirky if statements like `commandFound.Name() ==
c.Name() && len(stripFlags(args, c)) > 0 && commandFound.Name() !=
args[0]` which embeed all sorts of artifacts which are hard to parse. So
in general, just try to simplify and make stuff readable.
This fixes a problem where if you had a root command and a grand child
with the same name, the parser would break and would not run the
grandchild. The code was special casing if the immediate child had the
same name, but didn't handle grand-children
by now, if someone calls: `program --validflag unknowncommand` the
output will be:
```
Error: unknown command "--validflag"
Run 'program help' for usage.
```
This patch strips out flags so the unknown command is printed:
```
Error: unknown command "unknowncommand"
Run 'program help' for usage.
```
The automatic Markdown generator works great!
But to use it to render the documentation in Hugo, we need front matter and slightly different links.
This commit adds optional callback funcs to add that.
We were trying to call a bash function with bash stuff like @ () from a
variable. Stop that. Just call a function with an arg from a variable
instead of trying to pass around the bash.
Should fix https://github.com/spf13/cobra/pull/103
