how to have each cobra command parse its own flags? getting initialization loop (expected, but how to avoid?)
0
I'm following the guide on https://github.com/spf13/cobra#flags, but I'm confused by some of the content there.
I have a few services (rest api, email service, events) and I'm trying to do something like this:
go run *.go rest -env DEV -p 3000
go run *.go events -env DEV -p 3001
I'm following the github page, so I have defined my rootCmd and restCmd as such:
var rootCmd = &cobra.Command{
Use: "myappname",
}
var restCmd = &cobra.Command{
Use: "rest",
Short: "REST API",
Long: "REST API",
Run: runRest,
}
And in the runRest method, should I be doing something like
var env string
restCmd.Flags().StringVarP(&env, "env", "env", "", "environment")
Please let me know.
Thanks

Each sub command can have their own flags. You can do this as following:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/spf13/cobra"
)
var rootCmd = &cobra.Command{
Use: "app",
}
func NewCmdRest() *cobra.Command {
var env string
var restCmd = &cobra.Command{
Use: "rest",
Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args string) {
fmt.Println("rest:", env)
},
}
restCmd.Flags().StringVarP(&env, "env", "e", "", "environment")
return restCmd
}
func NewCmdEvent() *cobra.Command {
var env string
var eventCmd = &cobra.Command{
Use: "event",
Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args string) {
fmt.Println("event:", env)
},
}
eventCmd.Flags().StringVarP(&env, "env", "e", "", "environment")
return eventCmd
}
func init() {
rootCmd.AddCommand(NewCmdRest())
rootCmd.AddCommand(NewCmdEvent())
}
func main() {
if err := rootCmd.Execute(); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
