Adoption

Adoption is a simple option parser for .Net command line applications, intended to parse out strings or flags.

Code

public static void Main()
{
    var processor = new Adoption.Processor(defaultArgument: "--value");
    var key = processor.Handle("--key", "-k").Required().Describe("Which key to set.");
    var value = processor.Handle("--value", "-v").Describe("The value to set for the key.");
    var remove = processor.Handle("--remove", "-r").Flag().Describe("Remove the old key");
    try
    {
        processor.Process(new[]{ "--key", "id", "100" });
    }
    catch(AdoptionException ex)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
        Console.WriteLine(processor.Help());
        return;
    }

    var values = new Dictionary<string, string>();
    if(remove.Enabled) values.Remove(key.Value.ToString());
    if(value.Enabled) {
        values[key.Value.ToString()] = value.Value.ToString();
    }
}
