public static io.github.qishr.cascara.common.util.CommandLine.Model.ArgGroupSpec.Builder Builder responsible for creating valid ArgGroupSpec objects.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type Method Description

public static Builder builder(IAnnotatedElement annotatedElement) Returns a new Builder associated with the specified annotated element.
public boolean exclusive() Returns whether this is a mutually exclusive group; true by default.
public Range multiplicity() Returns the multiplicity of this group: how many occurrences it may have on the command line; "0..1" (optional) by default.

Method Details

builder

public static Builder builder()

Returns a new Builder.

Returns:

a new ArgGroupSpec.Builder instance


builder

public static Builder builder(IAnnotatedElement annotatedElement)

Returns a new Builder associated with the specified annotated element.

Parameters:

annotatedElement - the annotated element containing @Option and @Parameters

Returns:

a new ArgGroupSpec.Builder instance


exclusive

public boolean exclusive()

Returns whether this is a mutually exclusive group; true by default.If false, this is a co-occurring group. Ignored if validate.validate is false.

See Also:

exclusive


multiplicity

public Range multiplicity()

Returns the multiplicity of this group: how many occurrences it may have on the command line; "0..1" (optional) by default.A group can be made required by specifying a multiplicity of "1". For a group of mutually exclusive arguments, being required means that one of the arguments in the group must appear on the command line, or a MissingParameterException is thrown. For a group of co-occurring arguments, being required means that all arguments in the group must appear on the command line. Ignored if validate.validate is false.

See Also:

multiplicity


validate

public boolean validate()

Returns whether picocli should validate the rules of this group: for a mutually exclusive group this means that no more than one arguments in the group is specified on the command line; for a co-occurring group this means that all arguments in the group are specified on the command line.true by default.

See Also:

validate


order

public int order()

Returns the position in the options list in the usage help message at which this group should be shown.Groups with a lower number are shown before groups with a higher number. This attribute is only honored for groups that have a heading.heading (or a headingKey.headingKey with a non-null resource bundle value).
