structopt-yaml

An default value loader from YAML or JSON for structopt. It combinates with structopt. Derived from structopt-toml.

Usage

This crate must be used with serde, serde_derive, structopt, and serde_yaml explicitly.

[dependencies]
serde          = "1.0"
serde_derive   = "1.0"
serde_yaml     = "0.8.17"
structopt      = "0.3.11"
structopt-yaml = "0.4.6"

Example

If derive(Deserialize), derive(StructOptYaml) and serde(default) are added to the struct with derive(StructOpt), some functions like from_args_with_yaml can be used.

use serde_derive::Deserialize;
use structopt::StructOpt;
use structopt_yaml::StructOptYaml;

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize, StructOpt, StructOptYaml)]
#[serde(default)]
struct Opt {
    #[structopt(default_value = "0", short = "a")] a: i32,
    #[structopt(default_value = "0", short = "b")] b: i32,
}

fn main() {
    let yaml_str = r#"
        a: 10
    "#;
    let opt = Opt::from_args_with_yaml(yaml_str).expect("yaml parse failed");
    println!("a:{}", opt.a);
    println!("b:{}", opt.b);
}

The execution result is below.

$ ./example
a:10        // value from YAML string
b:0         // value from default_value of structopt

$ ./example -a 20
a:20        // value from command line argument
b:0
