Automatically generate a custom command-line option parser from just the long-form help text for your program.

I am happy to announce release 1.1.1 of optparse.

Optparse's home page is at https://github.com/gvvaughan/optparse, with documentation at https://gvvaughan.github.io/optparse.

This was the option parser I originally wrote for Specl, and later donated to lua-stdlib. I’m in the process of slimming down lua-stdlib in preparation for the next release though, part of which means that you can now use optparse without requiring the installation of all of stdlib.

This release accounts for the change of namespace with std.strict.

Install it with LuaRocks, using:

luarocks install optparse 1.1.1

Noteworthy changes in release 1.1.1 (2016-02-07) [stable]

Bug fixes

  • Update for change in std.strict module path.

Incompatible changes

  • optparse._VERSION is now optparse.version for consistency with other former stdlib modules.
