将cobra下载到 $GOPATH,用命令:
go get -v github.com/spf13/cobra/cobra
然后使用 go install github.com/spf13/cobra/cobra
, 安装后在 $GOBIN
下出现了cobra 可执行程序。如果你没有配置 $GOBIN
,那么可以在$GOPATH/bin
下找到 cobra的可执行软件。
cobra程序只能在GOPATH之下使用,所以首先你需要进入到GOPATH的src目录之下,在该目录下,输入:
cobra init demo
在你的当前目录下,应该已经生成了一个demo文件夹:
demo
├── cmd
│ └── root.go
├── LICENSE
└── main.go
上述便是该文件夹的结构,我们可以进去该文件夹,运行:
go run main.go
应该会打印如下结果:
A longer description that spans multiple lines and likely contains examples and usage of using your application. For example: Cobra is a CLI library for Go that empowers applications. This application is a tool to generate the needed files to quickly create a Cobra application.
至此,我们的cobra项目便已经生成完毕。
如果你并不想运行cobra的可执行命令生成示例代码,只想在项目使用其库代码,则上面的内容可以忽略。
附 demo 文件夹的内容:

添加子命令
实际操作其实cobra都能帮你完成,假设我们现在需要添加一个test参数,在项目文件夹下命令行输入:
cobra add test
执行完成后,现在我们的demo结构应该是:
.
├── cmd
│ ├── root.go
│ └── test.go
├── LICENSE
└── main.go
可以看到,在cmd目录下,已经生成了一个与我们命令同名的go文件,你也许已经猜测到,与该命令有关的操作也正是在此处实现。现在执行这个子命令:
go run main.go test
命令行将会打印输出test called
那么现在又有一个问题,如果我们想添加子命令下的子命令呢?
现在让我们打开test.go,你应该看到如下的文件内容:
// Copyright © 2017 NAME HERE// // Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); // you may not use this file except in compliance with the License. // You may obtain a copy of the License at // // http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 // // Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, software // distributed under the License is distributed on an "AS IS" BASIS, // WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied. // See the License for the specific language governing permissions and // limitations under the License. package cmd import ( "fmt" "github.com/spf13/cobra" ) // testCmd represents the test command var testCmd = &cobra.Command{ Use: "test", Short: "A brief description of your command", Long: `A longer description that spans multiple lines and likely contains examples and usage of using your command. For example: Cobra is a CLI library for Go that empowers applications. This application is a tool to generate the needed files to quickly create a Cobra application.`, Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) { fmt.Println("test called") }, } func init() { rootCmd.AddCommand(testCmd) // Here you will define your flags and configuration settings. // Cobra supports Persistent Flags which will work for this command // and all subcommands, e.g.: // testCmd.PersistentFlags().String("foo", "", "A help for foo") // Cobra supports local flags which will only run when this command // is called directly, e.g.: // testCmd.Flags().BoolP("toggle", "t", false, "Help message for toggle") }
你会发现,在init中有一句 rootCmd.AddCommand(testCmd)
这个rootCmd是什么?打开root.go,你会发现rootCmd其实就是我们的根命令。我相信机智的同学已经猜出来我们添加子命令的子命令的方法了。现在让我们在cmd目录下新建testson.go文件,项目文件结构为:
.
├── cmd
│ ├── root.go
│ └── test.go
│ └── testson.go
├── LICENSE
└── main.go
把test.go的内容复制进去,并testson.go文件修改为如下内容:
cmd/testson.go:
// Copyright © 2017 NAME HERE// // Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); // you may not use this file except in compliance with the License. // You may obtain a copy of the License at // // http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 // // Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, software // distributed under the License is distributed on an "AS IS" BASIS, // WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied. // See the License for the specific language governing permissions and // limitations under the License. package cmd import ( "fmt" "github.com/spf13/cobra" ) // testCmd represents the test command var testsonCmd = &cobra.Command{ Use: "testson", Short: "A brief description of your command", Long: `A longer description that spans multiple lines and likely contains examples and usage of using your command. For example: Cobra is a CLI library for Go that empowers applications. This application is a tool to generate the needed files to quickly create a Cobra application.`, Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) { fmt.Println("testson called") }, } func init() { testCmd.AddCommand(testsonCmd) // Here you will define your flags and configuration settings. // Cobra supports Persistent Flags which will work for this command // and all subcommands, e.g.: // testCmd.PersistentFlags().String("foo", "", "A help for foo") // Cobra supports local flags which will only run when this command // is called directly, e.g.: // testCmd.Flags().BoolP("toggle", "t", false, "Help message for toggle") }
现在在命令行运行:
go run main.go test testson
当你看到testson called
,恭喜你,子命令添加成功!否则你应当检查你的代码是否有误。
添加参数
我相信从init函数中的注释中,你已经得到了足够多的信息来自己操作添加flag,但我还是想要啰嗦两句。首先是persistent参数,当你的参数作为persistent flag存在时,如注释所言,在其所有的子命令之下该参数都是可见的。而local flag则只能在该命令调用时执行。可以做一个简单的测试,在test.go的init函数中,添加如下内容:
testCmd.PersistentFlags().String("foo", "", "A help for foo") testCmd.Flags().String("foolocal", "", "A help for foo")
现在在命令行 go run main.go test -h
得到如下结果:
$ go run main.go test -h A longer description that spans multiple lines and likely contains examples and usage of using your command. For example: Cobra is a CLI library for Go that empowers applications. This application is a tool to generate the needed files to quickly create a Cobra application. Usage: demo test [flags] demo test [command] Available Commands: testson A brief description of your command Flags: --foo string A help for foo --foolocal string A help for foo -h, --help help for test Global Flags: --config string config file (default is $HOME/.demo.yaml) Use "demo test [command] --help" for more information about a command.
接着让我们再运行 go run main.go test testson -h
$ go run main.go test testson -h A longer description that spans multiple lines and likely contains examples and usage of using your command. For example: Cobra is a CLI library for Go that empowers applications. This application is a tool to generate the needed files to quickly create a Cobra application. Usage: demo test testson [flags] Flags: -h, --help help for testson Global Flags: --config string config file (default is $HOME/.demo.yaml) --foo string A help for foo
可以发现在Gloabal Flags的变化。test作为root的子命令,仍然可以使用root的persistent flag-> config(可以查看root.go),而testson作为test的子命令,不仅可以使用test的persistent flag-> fool, 也可以使用test父命令的persistent flag。从而我们可以直观的看出persistent的作用范围是该命令之后的所有子命令。接下来你可能会问,那flag支持什么类型参数?答案是,请查看官方文档
请注意,cmd.Flags().String()与 cmd.Flags().StringP()是不一样的。假如我们在test.go的init下增加如下两行:
testCmd.Flags().String("f", "", "test") testCmd.Flags().StringP("aaa", "a", "", "test")
前者调用需要如下形式:
go run main.go test --f
后者有如下两种形式调用:
go run main.go test --aaa
go run main.go test -a
另外可以额外告知你如何使用slice作为参数,如[]string:
testCmd.Flags().StringSliceP("arr","r", nil, "test arr")
调用该参数的方法为:
go run main.go test -r "a,b,c"
请不要键入多余空格(除非确实需要键入),也不要使用空格替代逗号作为分割符。
获取参数值
在知道了如何设置参数后,我们的下一步当然便是需要在运行时获取该参数的值。现在让我们把注意力放到test.go的此部分:
var testCmd = &cobra.Command{ Use: "test", Short: "A brief description of your command", Long: `A longer description that spans multiple lines and likely contains examples and usage of using your command. For example: Cobra is a CLI library for Go that empowers applications. This application is a tool to generate the needed files to quickly create a Cobra application.`, Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) { fmt.Println("test called") }, }
让我们把注意力重新放到上面的代码上。我们也很容易可以猜测到Use,Short,Long三个参数的作用,这里便不做阐述(你可以参照添加子命令的子命令的部分的输出)。显而易见,我们应该在Run
这里来获取参数并执行我们的命令功能。获取参数其实也并不复杂。以testCmd.Flags().StringP("aaa", "a", "", "test")
此为例,我们可以在Run函数里添加:
str := testCmd.Flags().GetString("aaa")
这样便可以获取到该参数的值了,其余类型参数获取也是同理。如 testCmd.Flags().GetStringSlice("arr")
,规律并不难见。
