Minimist

A tiny ruby ARGV parser.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'minimist'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install minimist

This isn't designed to be as fully featured as things like OptionParser and Trollop. I just wanted to get at cli arguments without having to use a fully-featured DSL to specify exactly what I needed.

It accepts a string array and returns a hash containing commands and options.

Minimist.parse("parse this --with=2 -asbd -n4 --no-changes --send two".split(" "))

=> {
  :commands=>["parse", "this"],
  :options=> {
    :with=>"2",
    :a=>true,
    :s=>true,
    :b=>true,
    :d=>true,
    :n=>"4",
    :changes=>false,
    :send=>"two"
  }
}
