# glint



A simple command line runner for gleam



## Installation



If available on Hex this package can be added to your Gleam project.



```sh

gleam add glint

```



## Usage



You can import `glint` as a dependency and use it as follows:



```rust

import gleam/io

import gleam/map

import gleam/erlang.{start_arguments}

import glint.{CommandInput}

import glint/flag



pub fn main() {

  let hello_world = fn(input: CommandInput) {

    assert Ok(flag.BoolFlag(caps)) = map.get(input.flags, "caps")



    case caps {

      True -> io.println("HELLO, WORLD!")

      False -> io.println("Hello, World!")

    }

  }



  glint.new()

  |> glint.add_command([], hello_world, [flag.string("caps")])

  |> glint.run(start_arguments())

}

```



Run it with either of:

    - `gleam run` which will print `Hello, World!`

    - `gleam run -- -caps=true` which will print `HELLO, WORLD!`
