.SH "NAME"
\fBgetopts\fR \- Parse CLI options
.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBgetopts\fR [\fIoptions\fR \.\.\.]
.

\fBgetopts\fR [\fIoptions\fR \.\.\.] \fB|\fR \fBwhile\fR read \-l key value; \.\.\.; \fBend\fR

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBGetopts\fR is a command line options parser for fish\.
.
.SH "USAGE"
The best way to understand how getopts work is by studying a basic example\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
getopts \-ab1 \-\-foo=bar baz
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
And its output\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
a
b 1
foo bar
_ baz
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The items on the left represent the option flags or \fIkeys\fR associated with the CLI\. The items on the right are the option \fIvalues\fR\. The underscore \fB_\fR character is the default \fIkey\fR for arguments without a key\.
.
.P
Use read(1) to process the generated stream and switch(1) to match patterns:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
getopts \-ab1 \-\-foo=bar baz | while read \-l key option
switch $key
case _
case a
case b
case foo
end
end
.
.fi

.SH "EXAMPLES"
The following is a mock of fish(1) CLI\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
function fish
set \-l mode
set \-l flags
set \-l commands
set \-l debug_level
getopts $argv | while read \-l key value
switch $key
case c command
set commands $commands $value
case d debug\-level
set debug_level $value
case i interactive
set mode $value
case l login
set mode $value
case n no\-execute
set mode $value
case p profile
set flags $flags $value
case h help
printf "Usage: $_ [OPTIONS] [\-c command] [FILE [ARGUMENTS\.\.\.]]\en"
return
case \e*
printf "$_: \'%s\' is not a valid option\.\en" $key
return 1
end
end
# Implementation
