A lot of users expected `color` feature flag and `ColorAuto` etc to
control all colors. Having this extra flag around is easy to miss and
adds to our overall settings bloat, making it harder to find settings
people want.
This completely removes it, rather than make it deprecated like
functions in #2617, because there is extra work to mark things
deprecated as Settings and we should decide on our strategy first before
investing time in addressing that issue.
Fixes#2806
Before #2005, `Clap` was a special trait that derived all clap traits it
detected were relevant (including an enum getting both `ArgEnum`,
`Clap`, and `Subcommand`). Now, we have elevated `Clap`, `Args`,
`Subcommand`, and `ArgEnum` to be user facing but the name `Clap` isn't
very descriptive.
This also helps further clarify the relationships so a crate providing
an item to be `#[clap(flatten)]` or `#[clap(subcommand)]` is more likely
to choose the needed trait to derive.
Also, my proposed fix fo #2785 includes making `App` attributes almost
exclusively for `Clap`. Clarifying the names/roles will help
communicate this.

This carries over a test case from
https://github.com/TeXitoi/structopt/pull/448, and re-fixes it according
to the changes we've made since we forked. I also tried to identify
other cases and quote them to avoid playing whack-a-mole with this.
This is a part of #2809
Some programs do not use anything to separate word boundaries.
For example a struct may contain the field `build_dir` while the flag is
`--builddir`.
This is a port of https://github.com/TeXitoi/structopt/pull/412
This is part of #2809
https://github.com/TeXitoi/structopt/pull/325 special cased `version`
because a default method would be added if the user did nothing, which
caused problems when nesting subcommands. We no longer apply that
default method and the highest item in the chain always has precedence,
so this can be simplified / clarified.
This will unblock us from removing the `version` hack because we'll
always get the right precedence.
Later we can explore ways of moving the app methods to being done first.
The big problem is with `#[clap(subcommand)]` because we need to call
those app methods on the subcommands `App` *and* override them with app
methods on the variant, requiring the app methods to be last to get
precedence.
Before there was no way to make `SubcommandsNegateReqs` with
`clap_derive` because it required a required field with a sentinel value
for when the required part was negated. We blocked that.
This turned out simpler than I expected.
This came out of the discussion for #2255 but that issue is more
specifically about the panic, so not closing it.
In #2270, its brought up to solve this at the `cargo workspace publish`
level. However, copying the files is a 5s fix without any design work,
it doesn't seem like support within an external tool should block us
from getting this fix into users hands. Once `cargo workspace publish`
supports this and if we are still using it, we can re-evaluate.
Fixes#2270
* 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
Before, validating UTF-8 was all-or-nothing and would cause a `panic` if
someone used the right API with non-UTF-8 input.
Now, all arguments are validated for UTF-8, unless opted-out. This
ensures a non-panicing path forward at the cost of people using the
builder API that previously did `value_of_os` need to now set this flag.
Fixes#751
I did some digging to root cause this but gave up and suppressed it,
like others. Warnings like this also come with a cost of code-gen
complexity.
Fixes#2712
Instead they should behave like `default_value`/`default_values`.
In implementingt this, I didn't see any reason to be using a `VecMap`.
In fact, this helped simplify the code / make intent clearer.
With this, we are also able to simplify the derive macro work from #2633.
Fixes#2634
BREAKING CHANGE: `value_name`/`value_names` always overwrite, rather
than append. We expect the impact to be minimal.
Right now
- `default_value="something"` is a raw method
- `default_value` uses native types
This commit splits the meanings
- `default_value="something"` is a raw method
- `default_value_t` uses `T::default()`
- `default_value_t=expr` uses an expression that evaluates to `T`
This is meant to mirror the `value_of` / `value_of_t` API.
At the moment, this is limited to `T: Display` to work with clap's
default system. Something we can look at in the future is a way to
loosen that restriction. One quick win is to specialize when `arg_enum`
is set. The main downside is complicating the processing of attributes
because it then means we need some processed before others.
Since this builds on `clap`s existing default system, this also means
users do not get any performance gains out of using `default_value_t`,
since we still need to parse it but we also need to convert it to a
string.
Fixes#1694
