Subcommands is a Go package that implements a simple way for a single command to have many subcommands, each of which takes arguments and so forth.

This is not an official Google product.

Usage

Register using the default Commander, also use some built in subcommands, finally run Execute using ExitStatus as the exit code:

func main() {
  subcommands.Register(subcommands.HelpCommand(), "")
  subcommands.Register(subcommands.FlagsCommand(), "")
  subcommands.Register(subcommands.CommandsCommand(), "")
  subcommands.Register(&printCmd{}, "")

  flag.Parse()
  ctx := context.Background()
  os.Exit(int(subcommands.Execute(ctx)))
}
