## EntryPoint

Composable CLI Argument Parser for all modern .Net platforms

Parses arguments in the form `UtilityName [command] [-o | --options] [operands]`

Supports:

* .Net Standard 1.6+ (.Net Core and all future .Net releases are built on this)
* .Net Framework 4.5+

Follows the [IEEE Standard](http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap12.html) closely, but does include common adblibs such as fully named `--option` style options.

## Installation
EntryPoint is available on [NuGet](https://www.nuget.org/packages/EntryPoint):

PM> Install-Package EntryPoint

Pull requests and suggestions are welcome, and some small tasks are already in the Issues.

## As simple as...

Parse your application's Command Line Arguments into a declarative POCO, in one line.

Arguments are defined as declarative POCOs using Attributes.
```C#
var arguments = Cli.Parse<CliArguments>(args);
if (arguments.Option) {
  // ...
};
```
```C#
public class CliArguments : BaseCliArguments {
    public CliArguments() : base("MyApplication") { }

[Option(ShortName: 'o',
            LongName: "option-1")]
    public bool Option { get; set; }
}
```

Commands have a dedicated API:
```C#
Cli.Execute<CliCommands>(args);
```
```C#
public class CliCommands : BaseCliCommands {
    [Command("primary")]
    public void Primary(string[] args) {
    	// Arguments Parsing and Command Code...
    }
}
```
