# cli-standard-kit

Reusable CLI framework and utilities for consistent command-line interfaces in Python.

This package provides a complete framework and common building blocks for standardized, professional Python CLI tools:

## 🎯 Core Framework

- **StandardCLI**: Manage argparse and command execution with subcommand support
- **BaseCommand**: Abstract base class for creating reusable CLI commands
- **Command Registration**: Dynamically register commands with `cli.register()`
- **Automatic Help**: Built-in help generation for commands and subcommands

## 🛠️ Utilities

- Standardized logging (file + console) with verbose/quiet modes
- ANSI color utilities and message formatting templates
- Conventional directory layout helpers
- File operations for batch processing with progress tracking
- Argument parser with a consistent set of flags
- Pure Python (stdlib only, argparse-based)

## Installation

### From PyPI

```bash
pip install cli-standard-kit
```

### Development (editable)

```bash
git clone https://github.com/c3nk/cli-standard-kit.git
cd cli-standard-kit
pip install -e .
```

## Quick Start

### Using the Framework

Create a CLI with commands using the framework:

```python
from cli_commons import StandardCLI, BaseCommand
from argparse import ArgumentParser

class ListCommand(BaseCommand):
    name = "list"
    description = "List items"
    
    def add_arguments(self, parser: ArgumentParser) -> None:
        parser.add_argument("--all", action="store_true", help="Show all items")
    
    def run(self, args) -> int:
        print("Listing items...")
        if args.all:
            print("All items")
        return 0

class CreateCommand(BaseCommand):
    name = "create"
    description = "Create a new item"
    
    def add_arguments(self, parser: ArgumentParser) -> None:
        parser.add_argument("name", help="Item name")
    
    def run(self, args) -> int:
        print(f"Creating {args.name}...")
        return 0

def main():
    cli = StandardCLI("mytool", "My awesome CLI tool")
    cli.register(ListCommand())
    cli.register(CreateCommand())
    return cli.run()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    exit(main())
```

Usage:
```bash
mytool list --all
mytool create myitem
mytool --help
```

### Using Utilities Only

Below is a minimal CLI using cli-standard-kit utility components.

```python
import sys
from pathlib import Path
from cli_commons.parser import create_standard_parser, validate_arguments
from cli_commons.logger import setup_logging
from cli_commons.directories import setup_directories
from cli_commons.colors import MessageFormatter
from cli_commons.file_ops import get_files_recursive, process_batch_files


def process_file(file_path: Path) -> tuple[bool, str]:
    try:
        with open(file_path, "r", encoding="utf-8") as f:
            _ = f.read()
        return True, "Processed successfully"
    except Exception as e:
        return False, str(e)


def main() -> int:
    parser = create_standard_parser(
        prog="my-tool",
        description="My awesome CLI tool",
        version="1.0.0",
        epilog="Examples:\n  my-tool ./inputs --output ./outputs",
    )
    args = parser.parse_args()

    errors = validate_arguments(args)
    if errors:
        for error in errors:
            print(MessageFormatter.error(error), file=sys.stderr)
        return 1

    logger = setup_logging(args.log_file, args.verbose, args.quiet)
    dirs = setup_directories(Path.cwd())

    logger.info("Starting my-tool")

    try:
        input_files: list[Path] = []
        for p in args.paths:
            input_files.extend(get_files_recursive(p))

        if not input_files:
            print(MessageFormatter.warning("No files found to process"))
            return 0

        print(MessageFormatter.process(f"Found {len(input_files)} files"))

        stats = process_batch_files(
            input_files,
            process_file,
            dirs,
            logger,
            dry_run=args.dry_run,
        )

        print("\n" + "=" * 70)
        if args.dry_run:
            print(MessageFormatter.dry_run(f"Would process: {stats['processed']} files"))
        else:
            if stats["failed"] > 0:
                print(
                    MessageFormatter.warning(
                        f"Processed: {stats['processed']}, Failed: {stats['failed']}"
                    )
                )
            else:
                print(
                    MessageFormatter.success(
                        f"All {stats['processed']} files processed successfully"
                    )
                )

        print("=" * 70 + "\n")
        if args.log_file:
            print(f"Log file: {args.log_file}")
        return 0

    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        print(MessageFormatter.warning("Interrupted by user"), file=sys.stderr)
        logger.warning("Interrupted by user")
        return 130
    except Exception as e:
        print(MessageFormatter.error(str(e)), file=sys.stderr)
        logger.exception("Fatal error")
        return 1


if __name__ == "__main__":
    sys.exit(main())
```

        """Add command-specific arguments."""
        parser.add_argument("--flag", action="store_true")
        parser.add_argument("input", help="Input file")
    
    def run(self, args) -> int:
        """Execute command logic. Return 0 for success, non-zero for error."""

## Roadmap

### Core Features (Planned)

- **Auto Command Discovery**: Automatically discover and register commands from a directory
- **Global Flags**: Add `--verbose`, `--quiet`, `--dry-run` flags available to all commands
- **Command Aliases**: Support short names for commands (e.g., `ls` → `list`)
- **Command Groups**: Organize commands into groups (e.g., `db:migrate`, `db:seed`)

### Advanced Features (Planned)

- **Middleware/Hooks System**: Pre/post command execution hooks for logging, timing, authentication
- **Configuration File Support**: Load settings from YAML/JSON/TOML config files
- **Enhanced Error Handling**: Centralized exception handling with user-friendly error messages
- **Progress Indicators**: Progress bars and spinners for long-running operations

### Developer Experience (Planned)

- **Command Metadata**: Rich command metadata (version, author, examples) for enhanced help
- **Testing Utilities**: Mock helpers and testing framework for CLI commands
- **Tab Completion**: Bash/Zsh tab completion scripts for commands and arguments
- **Plugin System**: Support for external plugins and extensible architecture

### Utility Enhancements (Planned)

- **Table/Formatter Utilities**: Table formatting and JSON/CSV export utilities
- **Interactive Prompts**: User input prompts and confirmation dialogs
- **File Watchers**: File change monitoring and auto-reload functionality

See [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) for version history and recent changes.
