Instance Method Detail

def pre_run(arguments : Cling::Arguments, options : Cling::Options) : Nil #
Description copied from class Cling::Command

A hook method to run once the command/subcommands, arguments and options have been parsed. This has access to the parsed arguments and options from the command line. This is useful if you want to implement checks for specific flags outside of the main run method, such as -v/--version flags or -h/--help flags.

def setup : Nil #
Description copied from class Cling::Command

An abstract method that should define information about the command such as the name, aliases, arguments, options, etc. The command name is required for all commands, all other values are optional including the help message.
