## This module provides the standard Nim command line parser.
## It supports one convenience iterator over all command line options and some
## lower-level features.
##
## Supported Syntax
## ================
##
## The syntax described here applies to the default way the parser works.
## The behavior is configurable, though, and two additional modes
## are supported, see the details: `Parser Modes`_.
##
## Parsing also depends on whether the `shortNoVal` and `longNoVal` parameters
## are omitted/empty or provided. The details are described in a
## `later section<#nimshortnoval-and-nimlongnoval>`_.
##
## The following syntax is supported:
##
## 1. Short options: `-a:5`, `-b=5`, `-cde`, `-fgh=5`
## 2. Long options: `--foo:bar`, `--foo=bar`, `--foo`
## 3. Arguments: everything that does not start with a `-`
##
## Passing values to options **requires** a separator (`:`/`=`), short options
## (flags) can be bundled together and the last one can take a value.
##
## Option values can begin with the separator character (`:`/`=`), so all of the
## following is valid:
##   - option `foo`, value `:`:  `--foo::`, `--foo=:`
##   - option `foo`, value `=`:  `--foo:=`, `--foo==`
##
## The `--` option, commonly used to denote that every token that follows is
## an argument, is interpreted as a long option, and its name is the empty
## string. Trailing arguments can be accessed with `remainingArgs<#remainingArgs,OptParser>`_
## or `cmdLineRest<#cmdLineRest,OptParser>`_.
##
## Parsing
## =======
##
## To parse command line options, use the `getopt iterator<#getopt.i,OptParser>`_.
## It initializes the `OptParser<#OptParser>`_ object internally and iterates
## through the command line options.
##
## For each token, the parser's `kind` (`CmdLineKind enum<#CmdLineKind>`_.),
## `key`, and `val` fields are yielded.
##
## For long and short options, `key` is the option's name, and `val` is either
## the option's value, if given, or an empty string. For arguments, the `key`
## field contains the argument itself, and `val` is unused (empty).
##
## Here is an example:
##
runnableExamples:
  import std/os

  let cmds = "-ab -e:5 --foo --bar=20 file.txt".parseCmdLine()
  var output: seq[string] = @[]
  # If cmds is not supplied, real arguments will be retrieved by the `os` module
  for kind, key, val in getopt(cmds):
    case kind
    of cmdEnd: break
    of cmdShortOption, cmdLongOption:
      if val == "":
        output.add("Option: " & key)
      else:
        output.add("Option and value: " & key & ", " & val)
    of cmdArgument:
      output.add("Argument: " & key)

  doAssert output == @[
    "Option: a",
    "Option: b",
    "Option and value: e, 5",
    "Option: foo",
    "Option and value: bar, 20",
    "Argument: file.txt"
  ]
##
## The `OptParser<#OptParser>`_ can be initialized with
## `initOptParser<#initOptParser,string,set[char],seq[string]>`_.
## The `next<#next,OptParser>`_ proc advances the parser by one token.
##
## When iterating the object manually with `next<#next,OptParser>`_, reaching
## the end of the command line is signalled by setting the `kind` field
## to `cmdEnd`.
##
## To set a default value for an option, assign the default value to a variable
## beforehand, then update it while parsing.
##
runnableExamples:
  import std/strutils

  var varName: string = "defaultValue"

  for kind, key, val in getopt(@["--varName:HELLO"]):
    case kind
    of cmdArgument:
      discard
    of cmdLongOption, cmdShortOption:
      case key
      of "varName":  # --varName:<value> in the console when executing
        varName = val.toLowerAscii() # do input sanitization in production
    of cmdEnd:
      discard

  doAssert varName == "hello"
##
## `shortNoVal` and `longNoVal`
## ============================
##
## The optional `shortNoVal` and `longNoVal` parameters in
## `initOptParser<#initOptParser,string,set[char],seq[string]>`_ and
## `getopt iterator<#getopt.i,OptParser>`_ are for
## specifying which short and long options do not accept values.
##
## When `shortNoVal` or `longNoVal` is non-empty, using the separators (`:`/`=`)
## becomes non-mandatory and users can separate a value from long
## options (that are not supplied to the corresponding argument) by whitespace
## or, in the case of a short option, by writing the value directly adjacent to
## the option.
##
## For short options, `-j4` becomes supported syntax (parsed as option `j` with
## value `4` instead of two separate options `j` and `4`). For long options,
## `--foo bar` becomes supported syntax in all `modes<Parser Modes>`_.
##
## In `LaxMode` and `GnuMode`, short options can also take values from the next
## argument (`-c val`), but this does **not** work in the default `Nim` mode.
##
## As more options which do not accept values are added to your program,
## remember to amend `shortNoVal` and `longNoVal` accordingly.
##
## The parser does not validate the input for syntax mistakes, thus, options
## can still have values if passed explicitly by the user, even when they are
## marked as `shortNoVal`/`longNoVal`.
##
## This behavior allows associating an option with the mistakenly passed value:
##
runnableExamples:
  import std/[sequtils, os]

  let cmds = "-n:9 --foo:bar".parseCmdLine()
  let parsed = toSeq(cmds.getopt(shortNoVal = {'n'}, longNoVal = @["foo"]))
  for (kind, key, val) in parsed:
   case kind
   of cmdEnd: raise newException(AssertionDefect, "Unreachable")
   of cmdShortOption, cmdLongOption:
     if key in ["n", "foo"] and val != "":
       # Substitute for proper error handling in your code
       discard "Option " & key & " can't take values!"
     else: discard
   of cmdArgument: discard
  doAssert parsed == @[
   (cmdShortOption, "n", "9"),
   (cmdLongOption, "foo", "bar")]
##
## .. Important::
##   Next-argument value-taking for short/long options is only enabled when
##   `shortNoVal`/`longNoVal` are non-empty. If your program has *no* options
##   that take no value, you still must pass a non-empty placeholder (for example,
##   `shortNoVal = {'\0'}` and/or `longNoVal = @[""]`) to enable this form.
##
## The following example illustrates the difference between having an empty
## `shortNoVal` and `longNoVal`, which is the default, and providing
## arguments for those two parameters:
##
runnableExamples:

  proc format(kind: CmdLineKind; key, val: string): string =
    case kind
    of cmdEnd: raise newException(AssertionDefect, "Unreachable")
    of cmdShortOption, cmdLongOption:
      if val == "": "Option: " & key
      else:         "Option and value: " & key & ", " & val
    of cmdArgument: "Argument: " & key

  let cmdLine = "-j4 --first bar"
  var output1, output2: seq[string] = @[]

  var emptyNoVal = initOptParser(cmdLine)
  for kind, key, val in emptyNoVal.getopt():
    output1.add format(kind, key, val)

  doAssert output1 == @[
    "Option: j",
    "Option: 4",
    "Option: first",
    "Argument: bar"
  ]

  var withNoVal = cmdLine.initOptParser(shortNoVal = {'c'},
                                  longNoVal = @["second"])
  for kind, key, val in withNoVal.getopt():
    output2.add format(kind, key, val)

  doAssert output2 == @[
    "Option and value: j, 4",
    "Option and value: first, bar"
  ]
##
## Parser Modes
## ============
##
## .. Warning:: Modes other than the default (`Nim`) are **experimental** and may
##    change in future releases.
##
## The parser supports several distinct rule sets that change how options are
## interpreted:
##
## 1. **LaxMode**: Most forgiving mode, combines `Nim` with POSIX-like
##    short option handling. Tries to follow the POSIX_ guidelines where possible.
## 2. **NimMode**: Standard Nim parsing rules (default).
## 3. **GnuMode**: GNU-inspired parsing (e.g. `=` as the only delimiter).
##    Puts some additional restrictions, following some of the GNU_ conventions.
##
## Modes are ordered from most relaxed to strictest. The names were
## chosen to set general user expectations and full compliance is neither
## achieved nor planned.
##
## Mode Differences
## ----------------
##
## **NimMode** (default):
##
## - Short options require adjacent values or explicit delimiters:
##   `-cval`, `-c:val`, `-c=val`
## - Short options follow POSIX-style bundling rules
## - Next-argument value taking (`-c val`) is **not** supported by default
## - Supports both `:` and `=` as delimiters
## - Allows whitespace around delimiters
## - Values starting with `-` are interpreted as new options
##
## **LaxMode**:
##
## - Essentially the Nim mode with some relaxations for short options:
##   + Allows short options to take values from the next argument: `-c val`
##   + Supports bundled short options with trailing value: `-abc val`
## - Values starting with `-` can be consumed as option arguments
##
## **GnuMode**:
##
## - Only `=` is treated as a delimiter (`:` is not a delimiter)
## - No whitespace allowed around `=`
## - Short options can take next-argument values (`-c val`), but only whitespace
##   is allowed as a delimiter, separators parse as part of the value
## - Short options follow POSIX-style bundling rules
## - Values starting with `-` can be consumed as option arguments
## - Known discrepancies compared to GNU getopt:
##   + No notion of optional/mandatory arguments, colon (`:`) doesn't
##     indicate them and overall is not a special character.
##
## Mode-Specific Behavior
## ----------------------
##
## The parser's behavior varies significantly between modes, particularly
## around how options consume their values:
##
## **Short Options**
##
## Consider `-c val`:
##
## - In `Nim` mode: `-c` is parsed as an option without a value, and `val` is
##   parsed as a separate argument, regardless of `shortNoVal` being empty or not.
## - In `Lax` and `Gnu` modes:
##   + When `shortNoVal` is empty, or not empty and `-c` is in it:
##     Same as `Nim`, parsed as option `-c` followed by argument `val`.
##   + When `-c` is not in `shortNoVal`:
##     parsed as option `-c`, `val` is consumed as its value.
##
## Consider `-c-10`:
##
## - If `shortNoVal` value is empty, all three modes parse three separate short
##   options: `c`, `1` and `0`.
## - Otherwise, if `-c` is not in `shortNoVal`:
##   + `Nim`: `-c` is an option without an argument. `-10` is interpreted as a
##      an option `-1` with the `0` argument.
##   + `Lax` and `Gnu` modes: `-10` is consumed as the value of `-c`
##     (allowing negative number values).
##
## **Long Options**
##
## Consider `--foo:bar`:
##
## - `Nim`: `:` is a valid delimiter, so `bar` is the value of `--foo`.
## - `LaxMode`: same as `Nim`.
## - `Gnu`: only `=` is a valid delimiter, so this parses as an option named
##   `foo:bar` without a value (unless `longNoVal` is non-empty and allows
##   next-argument consumption).
##
## Consider `--foo =bar`:
##
## - `Nim`: whitespace around delimiters is allowed, so `=bar` is the
##   value of `--foo`.
## - `LaxMode`: same as `Nim`.
## - `Gnu`: whitespace around `=` is not allowed, so `--foo` is an
##   option without a value, and `=bar` is parsed as an argument.
##
## Custom Rule Sets
## ================
##
## .. Warning:: Custom rule sets are unsupported and not tested
##
## If you require parsing rules beyond the three provided modes, it's possible
## to define a custom parser behavior by specifying a set of individual parser
## rules.
##
## Due to this feature being unsupported, it requires importing the private
## symbols of the module (with `import std/parseopt {.all.}`) and utilizing
## the unexported `initOptParser` overload, which accepts `set[ParserRules]`
## (see the `ParserRules` enum in the code for details).
