Documentation

Getting started

using Senpai;
using Senpai.Token;

[Command(
    Name: "do",
    Description: "Do something."
)]
[Option<bool>(
    Id: 2
    Name: "--alt", 
    Description: "An option which alter something."
)]
[Argument<string>(
    Id: 1
    Name: "Input",
    Arity = ArgumentArity.ExactlyOne
)]
public static void myMethod(string Input, bool Alter) 
{
    // my code
}

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Cli.Initialize(args, "This is my app's description.");
}

Under the hood

Senpai is able to simplify the process of building a cli by making use of the new generic attribute feature.

A little bit of reflection-ing and Senpai is able to dynamically build and initialize the System.CommandLine library to act as its command-line interpreter. But all of this comes at the price of some limitations and performance lost.
