Public Class methods

arguments( argv )

Return the arguments remaining after running through configuration

command( argv )

Parse the provided argument array for a given command, or return the default command and the remaining arguments

configuration( argv )

Extracts any values for arguments matching ’—config’ as well as some implication arguments like ’-e’. Returns an array with the configs as the first value and the remaing args as the last value.

To set a value on the default Configuration instance, use the following notation: 

  --config attribute=value

The above notation can be used several times to set different values.

Special, or ‘normal’ arguments that are mapped to the default Configuration instance are listed below: 

  -e value or --env value => environment
  --pid pidfile           => pid_file
  -l path or --log path   => /path/to/log/file
parse( argv )
