Expand description

Application level settings, which affect how App operates

NOTE: When these settings are used, they apply only to current command, and are not propagated down or up through child or parent subcommands

Variants§

§

AllowInvalidUtf8

Specifies that any invalid UTF-8 code points should not be treated as an error. This is the default behavior of clap.

NOTE: Using argument values with invalid UTF-8 code points requires using ArgMatches::os_value_of, ArgMatches::os_values_of, ArgMatches::lossy_value_of, or ArgMatches::lossy_values_of for those particular arguments which may contain invalid UTF-8 values

NOTE: This rule only applies to argument values, as flags, options, and SubCommands themselves only allow valid UTF-8 code points.

§Platform Specific

Non Windows systems only

§Examples

use std::ffi::OsString;
use std::os::unix::ffi::{OsStrExt,OsStringExt};

let r = App::new("myprog")
 //.setting(AppSettings::AllowInvalidUtf8)
   .arg_from_usage("<arg> 'some positional arg'")
   .get_matches_from_safe(
       vec![
           OsString::from("myprog"),
           OsString::from_vec(vec![0xe9])]);

assert!(r.is_ok());
let m = r.unwrap();
assert_eq!(m.value_of_os("arg").unwrap().as_bytes(), &[0xe9]);
§

AllArgsOverrideSelf

Essentially sets [Arg::overrides_with("itself")] for all arguments.

WARNING: Positional arguments cannot override themselves (or we would never be able to advance to the next positional). This setting ignores positional arguments. [Arg::overrides_with("itself")]: ./struct.Arg.html#method.overrides_with

§

AllowLeadingHyphen

Specifies that leading hyphens are allowed in argument values, such as negative numbers like -10. (which would otherwise be parsed as another flag or option)

NOTE: Use this setting with caution as it silences certain circumstances which would otherwise be an error (such as accidentally forgetting to specify a value for leading option). It is preferred to set this on a per argument basis, via Arg::allow_hyphen_values

§Examples

// Imagine you needed to represent negative numbers as well, such as -10
let m = App::new("nums")
    .setting(AppSettings::AllowLeadingHyphen)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("neg").index(1))
    .get_matches_from(vec![
        "nums", "-20"
    ]);

assert_eq!(m.value_of("neg"), Some("-20"));
§

AllowNegativeNumbers

Allows negative numbers to pass as values. This is similar to AllowLeadingHyphen except that it only allows numbers, all other undefined leading hyphens will fail to parse.

§Examples

let res = App::new("myprog")
    .version("v1.1")
    .setting(AppSettings::AllowNegativeNumbers)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("num"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "-20"
    ]);
assert!(res.is_ok());
let m = res.unwrap();
assert_eq!(m.value_of("num").unwrap(), "-20");
§

AllowMissingPositional

Allows one to implement two styles of CLIs where positionals can be used out of order.

The first example is a CLI where the second to last positional argument is optional, but the final positional argument is required. Such as $ prog [optional] <required> where one of the two following usages is allowed:

  • $ prog [optional] <required>
  • $ prog <required>

This would otherwise not be allowed. This is useful when [optional] has a default value.

Note: when using this style of “missing positionals” the final positional must be required if -- will not be used to skip to the final positional argument.

Note: This style also only allows a single positional argument to be “skipped” without the use of --. To skip more than one, see the second example.

The second example is when one wants to skip multiple optional positional arguments, and use of the -- operator is OK (but not required if all arguments will be specified anyways).

For example, imagine a CLI which has three positional arguments [foo] [bar] [baz]... where baz accepts multiple values (similar to man ARGS... style training arguments).

With this setting the following invocations are possible:

  • $ prog foo bar baz1 baz2 baz3
  • $ prog foo -- baz1 baz2 baz3
  • $ prog -- baz1 baz2 baz3

§Examples

Style number one from above:

// Assume there is an external subcommand named "subcmd"
let m = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::AllowMissingPositional)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("arg1"))
    .arg(Arg::with_name("arg2")
        .required(true))
    .get_matches_from(vec![
        "prog", "other"
    ]);

assert_eq!(m.value_of("arg1"), None);
assert_eq!(m.value_of("arg2"), Some("other"));

Now the same example, but using a default value for the first optional positional argument

// Assume there is an external subcommand named "subcmd"
let m = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::AllowMissingPositional)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("arg1")
        .default_value("something"))
    .arg(Arg::with_name("arg2")
        .required(true))
    .get_matches_from(vec![
        "prog", "other"
    ]);

assert_eq!(m.value_of("arg1"), Some("something"));
assert_eq!(m.value_of("arg2"), Some("other"));

Style number two from above:

// Assume there is an external subcommand named "subcmd"
let m = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::AllowMissingPositional)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("foo"))
    .arg(Arg::with_name("bar"))
    .arg(Arg::with_name("baz").multiple(true))
    .get_matches_from(vec![
        "prog", "foo", "bar", "baz1", "baz2", "baz3"
    ]);

assert_eq!(m.value_of("foo"), Some("foo"));
assert_eq!(m.value_of("bar"), Some("bar"));
assert_eq!(m.values_of("baz").unwrap().collect::<Vec<_>>(), &["baz1", "baz2", "baz3"]);

Now notice if we don’t specify foo or baz but use the -- operator.

// Assume there is an external subcommand named "subcmd"
let m = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::AllowMissingPositional)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("foo"))
    .arg(Arg::with_name("bar"))
    .arg(Arg::with_name("baz").multiple(true))
    .get_matches_from(vec![
        "prog", "--", "baz1", "baz2", "baz3"
    ]);

assert_eq!(m.value_of("foo"), None);
assert_eq!(m.value_of("bar"), None);
assert_eq!(m.values_of("baz").unwrap().collect::<Vec<_>>(), &["baz1", "baz2", "baz3"]);
§

AllowExternalSubcommands

Specifies that an unexpected positional argument, which would otherwise cause a ErrorKind::UnknownArgument error, should instead be treated as a SubCommand within the ArgMatches struct.

NOTE: Use this setting with caution, as a truly unexpected argument (i.e. one that is NOT an external subcommand) will not cause an error and instead be treated as a potential subcommand. One should check for such cases manually and inform the user appropriately.

§Examples

// Assume there is an external subcommand named "subcmd"
let m = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::AllowExternalSubcommands)
    .get_matches_from(vec![
        "myprog", "subcmd", "--option", "value", "-fff", "--flag"
    ]);

// All trailing arguments will be stored under the subcommand's sub-matches using an empty
// string argument name
match m.subcommand() {
    (external, Some(ext_m)) => {
         let ext_args: Vec<&str> = ext_m.values_of("").unwrap().collect();
         assert_eq!(external, "subcmd");
         assert_eq!(ext_args, ["--option", "value", "-fff", "--flag"]);
    },
    _ => {},
}
§

ArgsNegateSubcommands

Specifies that use of a valid argument negates subcommands being used after. By default clap allows arguments between subcommands such as <cmd> [cmd_args] <cmd2> [cmd2_args] <cmd3> [cmd3_args]. This setting disables that functionality and says that arguments can only follow the final subcommand. For instance using this setting makes only the following invocations possible:

  • <cmd> <cmd2> <cmd3> [cmd3_args]
  • <cmd> <cmd2> [cmd2_args]
  • <cmd> [cmd_args]

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::ArgsNegateSubcommands)
§

ArgRequiredElseHelp

Specifies that the help text should be displayed (and then exit gracefully), if no arguments are present at runtime (i.e. an empty run such as, $ myprog.

NOTE: SubCommands count as arguments

NOTE: Setting Arg::default_value effectively disables this option as it will ensure that some argument is always present.

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::ArgRequiredElseHelp)
§

ColoredHelp

Uses colorized help messages.

NOTE: Must be compiled with the color cargo feature

§Platform Specific

This setting only applies to Unix, Linux, and macOS (i.e. non-Windows platforms)

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::ColoredHelp)
    .get_matches();
§

ColorAuto

Enables colored output only when the output is going to a terminal or TTY.

NOTE: This is the default behavior of clap.

NOTE: Must be compiled with the color cargo feature.

§Platform Specific

This setting only applies to Unix, Linux, and macOS (i.e. non-Windows platforms).

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::ColorAuto)
    .get_matches();
§

ColorAlways

Enables colored output regardless of whether or not the output is going to a terminal/TTY.

NOTE: Must be compiled with the color cargo feature.

§Platform Specific

This setting only applies to Unix, Linux, and macOS (i.e. non-Windows platforms).

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::ColorAlways)
    .get_matches();
§

ColorNever

Disables colored output no matter if the output is going to a terminal/TTY, or not.

NOTE: Must be compiled with the color cargo feature

§Platform Specific

This setting only applies to Unix, Linux, and macOS (i.e. non-Windows platforms)

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::ColorNever)
    .get_matches();
§

DontCollapseArgsInUsage

Disables the automatic collapsing of positional args into [ARGS] inside the usage string

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::DontCollapseArgsInUsage)
    .get_matches();
§

DontDelimitTrailingValues

Disables the automatic delimiting of values when -- or AppSettings::TrailingVarArg was used.

NOTE: The same thing can be done manually by setting the final positional argument to Arg::use_delimiter(false). Using this setting is safer, because it’s easier to locate when making changes.

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::DontDelimitTrailingValues)
    .get_matches();
§

DisableHelpFlags

Disables -h and --help App without affecting any of the SubCommands (Defaults to false; application does have help flags)

§Examples

let res = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::DisableHelpFlags)
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "-h"
    ]);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::UnknownArgument);
let res = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::DisableHelpFlags)
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "test", "-h"
    ]);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::HelpDisplayed);
§

DisableHelpSubcommand

Disables the help subcommand

§Examples

let res = App::new("myprog")
    .version("v1.1")
    .setting(AppSettings::DisableHelpSubcommand)
    // Normally, creating a subcommand causes a `help` subcommand to automatically
    // be generated as well
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "help"
    ]);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::UnknownArgument);
§

DisableVersion

Disables -V and --version App without affecting any of the SubCommands (Defaults to false; application does have a version flag)

§Examples

let res = App::new("myprog")
    .version("v1.1")
    .setting(AppSettings::DisableVersion)
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "-V"
    ]);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::UnknownArgument);
let res = App::new("myprog")
    .version("v1.1")
    .setting(AppSettings::DisableVersion)
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "test", "-V"
    ]);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::VersionDisplayed);
§

DeriveDisplayOrder

Displays the arguments and SubCommands in the help message in the order that they were declared in, and not alphabetically which is the default.

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::DeriveDisplayOrder)
    .get_matches();
§

GlobalVersion

Specifies to use the version of the current command for all child SubCommands. (Defaults to false; subcommands have independent version strings from their parents.)

NOTE: The version for the current command and this setting must be set prior to adding any child subcommands

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .version("v1.1")
    .setting(AppSettings::GlobalVersion)
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches();
// running `$ myprog test --version` will display
// "myprog-test v1.1"
§

Hidden

Specifies that this SubCommand should be hidden from help messages

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test")
    .setting(AppSettings::Hidden))
§

HidePossibleValuesInHelp

Tells clap not to print possible values when displaying help information. This can be useful if there are many values, or they are explained elsewhere.

§

InferSubcommands

Tries to match unknown args to partial subcommands or their aliases. For example to match a subcommand named test, one could use t, te, tes, and test.

NOTE: The match must not be ambiguous at all in order to succeed. i.e. to match te to test there could not also be a subcommand or alias temp because both start with te

CAUTION: This setting can interfere with positional/free arguments, take care when designing CLIs which allow inferred subcommands and have potential positional/free arguments whose values could start with the same characters as subcommands. If this is the case, it’s recommended to use settings such as AppSeettings::ArgsNegateSubcommands in conjunction with this setting.

§Examples

let m = App::new("prog")
    .setting(AppSettings::InferSubcommands)
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from(vec![
        "prog", "te"
    ]);
assert_eq!(m.subcommand_name(), Some("test"));
§

NoBinaryName

Specifies that the parser should not assume the first argument passed is the binary name. This is normally the case when using a “daemon” style mode, or an interactive CLI where one one would not normally type the binary or program name for each command.

§Examples

let m = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::NoBinaryName)
    .arg(Arg::from_usage("<cmd>... 'commands to run'"))
    .get_matches_from(vec!["command", "set"]);

let cmds: Vec<&str> = m.values_of("cmd").unwrap().collect();
assert_eq!(cmds, ["command", "set"]);
§

NextLineHelp

Places the help string for all arguments on the line after the argument.

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::NextLineHelp)
    .get_matches();
§

PropagateGlobalValuesDown

👎Deprecated since 2.27.0: No longer required to propagate values

DEPRECATED: This setting is no longer required in order to propagate values up or down

Specifies that the parser should propagate global arg’s values down or up through any used child subcommands. Meaning, if a subcommand wasn’t used, the values won’t be propagated to said subcommand.

§Examples

let m = App::new("myprog")
    .arg(Arg::from_usage("[cmd] 'command to run'")
        .global(true))
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("foo"))
    .get_matches_from(vec!["myprog", "set", "foo"]);

assert_eq!(m.value_of("cmd"), Some("set"));

let sub_m = m.subcommand_matches("foo").unwrap();
assert_eq!(sub_m.value_of("cmd"), Some("set"));

Now doing the same thing, but not using any subcommands will result in the value not being propagated down.

let m = App::new("myprog")
    .arg(Arg::from_usage("[cmd] 'command to run'")
        .global(true))
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("foo"))
    .get_matches_from(vec!["myprog", "set"]);

assert_eq!(m.value_of("cmd"), Some("set"));

assert!(m.subcommand_matches("foo").is_none());
§

SubcommandsNegateReqs

Allows SubCommands to override all requirements of the parent command. For example if you had a subcommand or top level application with a required argument that is only required as long as there is no subcommand present, using this setting would allow you to set those arguments to Arg::required(true) and yet receive no error so long as the user uses a valid subcommand instead.

NOTE: This defaults to false (using subcommand does not negate requirements)

§Examples

This first example shows that it is an error to not use a required argument

let err = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::SubcommandsNegateReqs)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("opt").required(true))
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog"
    ]);
assert!(err.is_err());
assert_eq!(err.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::MissingRequiredArgument);

This next example shows that it is no longer error to not use a required argument if a valid subcommand is used.

let noerr = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::SubcommandsNegateReqs)
    .arg(Arg::with_name("opt").required(true))
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "test"
    ]);
assert!(noerr.is_ok());
§

SubcommandRequiredElseHelp

Specifies that the help text should be displayed (before exiting gracefully) if no SubCommands are present at runtime (i.e. an empty run such as $ myprog).

NOTE: This should not be used with AppSettings::SubcommandRequired as they do nearly same thing; this prints the help text, and the other prints an error.

NOTE: If the user specifies arguments at runtime, but no subcommand the help text will still be displayed and exit. If this is not the desired result, consider using AppSettings::ArgRequiredElseHelp instead.

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::SubcommandRequiredElseHelp)
§

StrictUtf8

Specifies that any invalid UTF-8 code points should be treated as an error and fail with a ErrorKind::InvalidUtf8 error.

NOTE: This rule only applies to argument values; Things such as flags, options, and SubCommands themselves only allow valid UTF-8 code points.

§Platform Specific

Non Windows systems only

§Examples

use std::ffi::OsString;
use std::os::unix::ffi::OsStringExt;

let m = App::new("myprog")
   .setting(AppSettings::StrictUtf8)
   .arg_from_usage("<arg> 'some positional arg'")
   .get_matches_from_safe(
       vec![
           OsString::from("myprog"),
           OsString::from_vec(vec![0xe9])]);

assert!(m.is_err());
assert_eq!(m.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::InvalidUtf8);
§

SubcommandRequired

Allows specifying that if no SubCommand is present at runtime, error and exit gracefully.

NOTE: This defaults to false (subcommands do not need to be present)

§Examples

let err = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::SubcommandRequired)
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog",
    ]);
assert!(err.is_err());
assert_eq!(err.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::MissingSubcommand);
§

TrailingVarArg

Specifies that the final positional argument is a “VarArg” and that clap should not attempt to parse any further args.

The values of the trailing positional argument will contain all args from itself on.

NOTE: The final positional argument must have Arg::multiple(true) or the usage string equivalent.

§Examples

let m = App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::TrailingVarArg)
    .arg(Arg::from_usage("<cmd>... 'commands to run'"))
    .get_matches_from(vec!["myprog", "arg1", "-r", "val1"]);

let trail: Vec<&str> = m.values_of("cmd").unwrap().collect();
assert_eq!(trail, ["arg1", "-r", "val1"]);
§

UnifiedHelpMessage

Groups flags and options together, presenting a more unified help message (a la getopts or docopt style).

The default is that the auto-generated help message will group flags, and options separately.

NOTE: This setting is cosmetic only and does not affect any functionality.

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::UnifiedHelpMessage)
    .get_matches();
// running `myprog --help` will display a unified "docopt" or "getopts" style help message
§

VersionlessSubcommands

Disables -V and --version for all SubCommands (Defaults to false; subcommands do have version flags.)

NOTE: This setting must be set prior to adding any subcommands.

§Examples

let res = App::new("myprog")
    .version("v1.1")
    .setting(AppSettings::VersionlessSubcommands)
    .subcommand(SubCommand::with_name("test"))
    .get_matches_from_safe(vec![
        "myprog", "test", "-V"
    ]);
assert!(res.is_err());
assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().kind, ErrorKind::UnknownArgument);
§

WaitOnError

Will display a message “Press [ENTER]/[RETURN] to continue…” and wait for user before exiting

This is most useful when writing an application which is run from a GUI shortcut, or on Windows where a user tries to open the binary by double-clicking instead of using the command line.

NOTE: This setting is not recursive with SubCommands, meaning if you wish this behavior for all subcommands, you must set this on each command (needing this is extremely rare)

§Examples

App::new("myprog")
    .setting(AppSettings::WaitOnError)
