In part, this is just fixing a papercut where someone will try to use
the API in the same way between the two but it fails and they'll have to
consult the docs / rust-analyzer.
The bigger reason is that this is more derive-friendly for dealing with #2803
since we will be able to just ask for the current help heading
before running the app and then restore it back, rather than having to
conditionalize the revert logic.
For those that want the original behavior, you can usxe
`arg.help_heading(Some("FLAGS"))` on your flags. Limitations:
- This will not give you a special sort order
- This will not get a `[FLAGS]` added to usage
For templates, we removed `{unified}` and `{flags}`. To help people
catch these, a debug_assert was added.
I'm unsure but I think there might be a change in behavior in calcuating
when to show `[OPTION]` in usage. The old code only looked at
`required` while flags looked only at arg groups. We now look at both.
Ideally we'd add these in `_build` and remove special casing for
no-groups except in the sort order of groups. I feel like thats best
left for later.
This also reduced the scope of `App`s public API.
`get_*_with_no_heading` seemed a bit specialized to be in the public
API. #2853 looks at splitting it out into its own PR.
BREAKING CHANGE: Multiple
- `UnifiedHelpMessage` removed
- `{flags}` and `{unified}` are removed and will assert when present.
- `get_*_with_no_heading` removed
Fixes#2807
This was changed in #1989 without an explanation:
- In the help template, there isn't a way to expose with help_headings,
so show all.
- In usage, we don't know whether the user wants to see `[FLAGS]` /
`[OPTIONS]` or not, so let's default to showing them.
* Check for `DisableHelpFlag` along with `NoAutoHelp`
Also applies for `DisableHelpSubcommand` and `DisableVersionFlag` with `NoAutoVersion`
* Add tests for overriding help and version, and disabling version.
These override by disabling the default and adding a new one.
* Don't use `default_missing_value` for `override_version_using_short`
* Check errors by the API.
This changes the `disabled_version_long` and `disabled_version_short` tests.
This is opposed to comparing the stderr output.
* feat(arg_value): ArgValue can be used for possible_values
Through the ArgValue it is possible:
* `hide` possible_values from showing in completion, help and validation
* add `about` to possible_values in completion
* Resolved a few change-requests by epage
* make clippy happy
* add ArgValue::get_visible_value
* remove verbose destructering
* rename ArgValue::get_hidden to ArgValue::is_hidden
* add test for help output of hidden ArgValues
* Documentation for ArgValue
There is an issue that required to implement From<&ArgValue> for
ArgValue. We should probably find a solution without that.
* fix requested changes by epage
* fix formatting
* add deref in possible_values call to remove From<&&str>
* make clippy happy
* use copied() instad of map(|v|*v)
* Finishing up for merge, hopefully
* changes requested by pksunkara
* Don't suggest `help` or `--help` when not applicable
* Apply suggestions from code review

* Update test usage to match intended

Change default help template:
- The new template introduce new lines before and after
author/about sections.
- Add help template placeholders:
- about-section
- author-section
- Documentation of new placeholders in clap::App::help_template
- Update all unit tests by incorporating new lines
Using `App::get_matches` from the integration tests meant that any
CLI arguments passed to libtest would also be captured by clap, often
causing the tests to fail.
For example, running `cargo test --test help -- --nocapture` would
result in several failed tests, even though `cargo test --test help`
worked fine. This was very surprising/confusing.
This commit makes the tests no longer implicitly rely on the value of
`env::args_os()`, which means developers can now provide arguments to
libtest without failures.
