About

DevTools Core is package designed to help create CLI tools that automate repetitive tasks. It offers robust support for command-line parsing, command creation, and more.

How to use

Install Luna.DevTools.Core NuGet package

dotnet add package Luna.DevTools.Core

Create a new class that inherits from CommandBase and override the ExecuteAsync method. This method will be called when the command is executed. Add the Command attribute to the class and provide the command name as the first argument.

[Command("my-command")]
public class MyCommand : CommandBase
{
    public override async Task<bool> ExecuteAsync();
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");

        return true;
    }
}

In the Program.cs file, create a new instance of the CliApplicationBuilder class and add the command to it and build the application instance.

var app = CliApplication.CreateBuilder(args)
    .AddCommand<MyCommand>()
    .Build();

Finally, run the application with the RunAsync method.

await app.RunAsync();

Build the application and run it. As a result, the command my-command will be available in the CLI application.

For the example above, the output for application called CliToolApp will be:

$ CliToolApp my-command

Hello, World!
