github.com/donkeywon/go-flags

Package flags provides an extensive command line option parser. The flags package is similar in functionality to the go built-in flag package but provides more options and uses reflection to provide a convenient and succinct way of specifying command line options. The following features are supported in go-flags: Additional features specific to Windows: The flags package uses structs, reflection and struct field tags to allow users to specify command line options. This results in very simple and concise specification of your application options. For example: This specifies one option with a short name -v and a long name --verbose. When either -v or --verbose is found on the command line, a 'true' value will be appended to the Verbose field. e.g. when specifying -vvv, the resulting value of Verbose will be {[true, true, true]}. Slice options work exactly the same as primitive type options, except that whenever the option is encountered, a value is appended to the slice. Map options from string to primitive type are also supported. On the command line, you specify the value for such an option as key:value. For example Then, the AuthorInfo map can be filled with something like -a name:Jesse -a "surname:van den Kieboom". Finally, for full control over the conversion between command line argument values and options, user defined types can choose to implement the Marshaler and Unmarshaler interfaces. The following is a list of tags for struct fields supported by go-flags: Either the `short:` tag or the `long:` must be specified to make the field eligible as an option. Option groups are a simple way to semantically separate your options. All options in a particular group are shown together in the help under the name of the group. Namespaces can be used to specify option long names more precisely and emphasize the options affiliation to their group. There are currently three ways to specify option groups. The flags package also has basic support for commands. Commands are often used in monolithic applications that support various commands or actions. Take git for example, all of the add, commit, checkout, etc. are called commands. Using commands you can easily separate multiple functions of your application. There are currently two ways to specify a command. The most common, idiomatic way to implement commands is to define a global parser instance and implement each command in a separate file. These command files should define a go init function which calls AddCommand on the global parser. When parsing ends and there is an active command and that command implements the Commander interface, then its Execute method will be run with the remaining command line arguments. Command structs can have options which become valid to parse after the command has been specified on the command line, in addition to the options of all the parent commands. I.e. considering a -v flag on the parser and an add command, the following are equivalent: However, if the -v flag is defined on the add command, then the first of the two examples above would fail since the -v flag is not defined before the add command. go-flags has builtin support to provide bash completion of flags, commands and argument values. To use completion, the binary which uses go-flags can be invoked in a special environment to list completion of the current command line argument. It should be noted that this `executes` your application, and it is up to the user to make sure there are no negative side effects (for example from init functions). Setting the environment variable `GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1` enables completion by replacing the argument parsing routine with the completion routine which outputs completions for the passed arguments. The basic invocation to complete a set of arguments is therefore: where `completion-example` is the binary, `arg1` and `arg2` are the current arguments, and `arg3` (the last argument) is the argument to be completed. If the GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set to "verbose", then descriptions of possible completion items will also be shown, if there are more than 1 completion items. To use this with bash completion, a simple file can be written which calls the binary which supports go-flags completion: Completion requires the parser option PassDoubleDash and is therefore enforced if the environment variable GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set. Customized completion for argument values is supported by implementing the flags.Completer interface for the argument value type. An example of a type which does so is the flags.Filename type, an alias of string allowing simple filename completion. A slice or array argument value whose element type implements flags.Completer will also be completed.

github.com/ethanbaker/align

Align is a scheduling tool that allows users to schedule events with other users. It is designed to be modular, so that users can easily receive schedule reminders and updates through different platforms. Align's configuration file has settings described below: ```yaml settings: persons: name: "Person 1" # Name of the person request_method: "discord" # Method to request information from response_method: "discord" # Method to respond with information id: "PERSONS_ID" # Identifiying string for the person (Discord ID, Telegram ID, etc.) name: "Person 2" ... ``` Currently, the `request_method` and `response_methods` must be the same value, but this will be changed in future updates. Examples for each module can be found in the 'examples/' directory. These directories contain the most barebones setup align needs to function. If you are using align in a more complicated package, you can provide the same types in the examples to get align working. ## SQL Align has an option to use SQL to store availability data. This is useful if align ever stops running (server resetting, power outages, etc). If align is restarted without persisting data, the availability data may be lost, and the subsequent schedule alignment may be incorrect (align tries to mitigate this fact as much as possible, but some necessary data cannot be recovered in this case, such as discord message IDs). You can provide SQL credentials to the align configuration file to use SQL. The yaml format is as follows: ```yaml sql: ``` ## Discord Discord is easy to set up with align. Simply providing a Discord session to align will allow it to send and receive messages. Keep in mind that, in order for a Discord bot to send a message to a user, it must be in a mutual server with said user. This is a limitation of the Discord API, and align cannot bypass this. To collect Discord IDs, you can right click on a profile you want to contact and click 'Copy User ID.' You can provide this information to align's configuration file. ## Telegram To initialize telegram with align, you can start a telegram session using [telegram-bot-api](https://github.com/go-telegram-bot-api/telegram-bot-api). This package is used to interact with the Telegram Bot API. Once you have started this session, align can use it to send and receive messages for easy and convienient scheduling. However, Telegram is more difficult to set up and maintain with align. These constraints originate from the [Telegram Bot API](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api) itself. These reasons are: * Telegram bots are not allowed to send messages to users who have not initiated some sort of conversation with the bot * Telegram servers only store updates for 24 hours, so if the bot is down for more than 24 hours, it may not receive poll updates So, to use Telegram with align, you must: * Have users initiate a conversation with the bot using '/start', or clicking the bottom of the bar when messaging the bot. The bot does not have to be online, but it must be activated within 24 hours to receive the update * Keep the bot online at least once every 24 hours so it can receive updates from telegram. If the bot is down for more than 24 hours, it may not receive poll updates and return incorrect schedule times The best way to do this in practice is to approach the user you want to contact using Telegram and have them start a conversation with the bot while the bot is online (or during the 24 hour update period). This way, the bot can send messages to the user without any issues. Secondly, you need to receive this user's Telegram User ID (not username). This can be done by having that user message '@userinfobot', clicking 'start', and recording the 'User Id Information' field.

rsc.io/gaby

Gaby is an experimental new bot running in the Go issue tracker as @gabyhelp, to try to help automate various mundane things that a machine can do reasonably well, as well as to try to discover new things that a machine can do reasonably well. The name gaby is short for “Go AI Bot”, because one of the purposes of the experiment is to learn what LLMs can be used for effectively, including identifying what they should not be used for. Some of the gaby functionality will involve LLMs; other functionality will not. The guiding principle is to create something that helps maintainers and that maintainers like, which means to use LLMs when they make sense and help but not when they don't. In the long term, the intention is for this code base or a successor version to take over the current functionality of “gopherbot” and become @gopherbot, at which point the @gabyhelp account will be retired. At the moment we are not accepting new code contributions or PRs. We hope to move this code to somewhere more official soon, at which point we will accept contributions. The GitHub Discussion is a good place to leave feedback about @gabyhelp. The bot functionality is implemented in internal packages in subdirectories. This comment gives a brief tour of the structure. An explicit goal for the Gaby code base is that it run well in many different environments, ranging from a maintainer's home server or even Raspberry Pi all the way up to a hosted cloud. (At the moment, Gaby runs on a Linux server in my basement.) Due to this emphasis on portability, Gaby defines its own interfaces for all the functionality it needs from the surrounding environment and then also defines a variety of implementations of those interfaces. Another explicit goal for the Gaby code base is that it be very well tested. (See my [Go Testing talk] for more about why this is so important.) Abstracting the various external functionality into interfaces also helps make testing easier, and some packages also provide explicit testing support. The result of both these goals is that Gaby defines some basic functionality like time-ordered indexing for itself instead of relying on some specific other implementation. In the grand scheme of things, these are a small amount of code to maintain, and the benefits to both portability and testability are significant. Code interacting with services like GitHub and code running on cloud servers is typically difficult to test and therefore undertested. It is an explicit requirement this repo to test all the code, even (and especially) when testing is difficult. A useful command to have available when working in the code is rsc.io/uncover, which prints the package source lines not covered by a unit test. A useful invocation is: The first “go test” command checks that the test passes. The second repeats the test with coverage enabled. Running the test twice this way makes sure that any syntax or type errors reported by the compiler are reported without coverage, because coverage can mangle the error output. After both tests pass and second writes a coverage profile, running “uncover /tmp/c.out” prints the uncovered lines. In this output, there are three error paths that are untested. In general, error paths should be tested, so tests should be written to cover these lines of code. In limited cases, it may not be practical to test a certain section, such as when code is unreachable but left in case of future changes or mistaken assumptions. That part of the code can be labeled with a comment beginning “// Unreachable” or “// unreachable” (usually with explanatory text following), and then uncover will not report it. If a code section should be tested but the test is being deferred to later, that section can be labeled “// Untested” or “// untested” instead. The rsc.io/gaby/internal/testutil package provides a few other testing helpers. The overview of the code now proceeds from bottom up, starting with storage and working up to the actual bot. Gaby needs to manage a few secret keys used to access services. The rsc.io/gaby/internal/secret package defines the interface for obtaining those secrets. The only implementations at the moment are an in-memory map and a disk-based implementation that reads $HOME/.netrc. Future implementations may include other file formats as well as cloud-based secret storage services. Secret storage is intentionally separated from the main database storage, described below. The main database should hold public data, not secrets. Gaby defines the interface it expects from a large language model. The llm.Embedder interface abstracts an LLM that can take a collection of documents and return their vector embeddings, each of type llm.Vector. The only real implementation to date is rsc.io/gaby/internal/gemini. It would be good to add an offline implementation using Ollama as well. For tests that need an embedder but don't care about the quality of the embeddings, llm.QuoteEmbedder copies a prefix of the text into the vector (preserving vector unit length) in a deterministic way. This is good enough for testing functionality like vector search and simplifies tests by avoiding a dependence on a real LLM. At the moment, only the embedding interface is defined. In the future we expect to add more interfaces around text generation and tool use. As noted above, Gaby defines interfaces for all the functionality it needs from its external environment, to admit a wide variety of implementations for both execution and testing. The lowest level interface is storage, defined in rsc.io/gaby/internal/storage. Gaby requires a key-value store that supports ordered traversal of key ranges and atomic batch writes up to a modest size limit (at least a few megabytes). The basic interface is storage.DB. storage.MemDB returns an in-memory implementation useful for testing. Other implementations can be put through their paces using storage.TestDB. The only real storage.DB implementation is rsc.io/gaby/internal/pebble, which is a LevelDB-derived on-disk key-value store developed and used as part of CockroachDB. It is a production-quality local storage implementation and maintains the database as a directory of files. In the future we plan to add an implementation using Google Cloud Firestore, which provides a production-quality key-value lookup as a Cloud service without fixed baseline server costs. (Firestore is the successor to Google Cloud Datastore.) The storage.DB makes the simplifying assumption that storage never fails, or rather that if storage has failed then you'd rather crash your program than try to proceed through typically untested code paths. As such, methods like Get and Set do not return errors. They panic on failure, and clients of a DB can call the DB's Panic method to invoke the same kind of panic if they notice any corruption. It remains to be seen whether this decision is kept. In addition to the usual methods like Get, Set, and Delete, storage.DB defines Lock and Unlock methods that acquire and release named mutexes managed by the database layer. The purpose of these methods is to enable coordination when multiple instances of a Gaby program are running on a serverless cloud execution platform. So far Gaby has only run on an underground basement server (the opposite of cloud), so these have not been exercised much and the APIs may change. In addition to the regular database, package storage also defines storage.VectorDB, a vector database for use with LLM embeddings. The basic operations are Set, Get, and Search. storage.MemVectorDB returns an in-memory implementation that stores the actual vectors in a storage.DB for persistence but also keeps a copy in memory and searches by comparing against all the vectors. When backed by a storage.MemDB, this implementation is useful for testing, but when backed by a persistent database, the implementation suffices for small-scale production use (say, up to a million documents, which would require 3 GB of vectors). It is possible that the package ordering here is wrong and that VectorDB should be defined in the llm package, built on top of storage, and not the current “storage builds on llm”. Because Gaby makes minimal demands of its storage layer, any structure we want to impose must be implemented on top of it. Gaby uses the rsc.io/ordered encoding format to produce database keys that order in useful ways. For example, ordered.Encode("issue", 123) < ordered.Encode("issue", 1001), so that keys of this form can be used to scan through issues in numeric order. In contrast, using something like fmt.Sprintf("issue%d", n) would visit issue 1001 before issue 123 because "1001" < "123". Using this kind of encoding is common when using NoSQL key-value storage. See the rsc.io/ordered package for the details of the specific encoding. One of the implied jobs Gaby has is to collect all the relevant information about an open source project: its issues, its code changes, its documentation, and so on. Those sources are always changing, so derived operations like adding embeddings for documents need to be able to identify what is new and what has been processed already. To enable this, Gaby implements time-stamped—or just “timed”—storage, in which a collection of key-value pairs also has a “by time” index of ((timestamp, key), no-value) pairs to make it possible to scan only the key-value pairs modified after the previous scan. This kind of incremental scan only has to remember the last timestamp processed and then start an ordered key range scan just after that timestamp. This convention is implemented by rsc.io/gaby/internal/timed, along with a [timed.Watcher] that formalizes the incremental scan pattern. Various package take care of downloading state from issue trackers and the like, but then all that state needs to be unified into a common document format that can be indexed and searched. That document format is defined by rsc.io/gaby/internal/docs. A document consists of an ID (conventionally a URL), a document title, and document text. Documents are stored using timed storage, enabling incremental processing of newly added documents . The next stop for any new document is embedding it into a vector and storing that vector in a vector database. The rsc.io/gaby/internal/embeddocs package does this, and there is very little to it, given the abstractions of a document store with incremental scanning, an LLM embedder, and a vector database, all of which are provided by other packages. None of the packages mentioned so far involve network operations, but the next few do. It is important to test those but also equally important not to depend on external network services in the tests. Instead, the package rsc.io/gaby/internal/httprr provides an HTTP record/replay system specifically designed to help testing. It can be run once in a mode that does use external network servers and records the HTTP exchanges, but by default tests look up the expected responses in the previously recorded log, replaying those responses. The result is that code making HTTP request can be tested with real server traffic once and then re-tested with recordings of that traffic afterward. This avoids having to write entire fakes of services but also avoids needing the services to stay available in order for tests to pass. It also typically makes the tests much faster than using the real servers. Gaby uses GitHub in two main ways. First, it downloads an entire copy of the issue tracker state, with incremental updates, into timed storage. Second, it performs actions in the issue tracker, like editing issues or comments, applying labels, or posting new comments. These operations are provided by rsc.io/gaby/internal/github. Gaby downloads the issue tracker state using GitHub's REST API, which makes incremental updating very easy but does not provide access to a few newer features such as project boards and discussions, which are only available in the GraphQL API. Sync'ing using the GraphQL API is left for future work: there is enough data available from the REST API that for now we can focus on what to do with that data and not that a few newer GitHub features are missing. The github package provides two important aids for testing. For issue tracker state, it also allows loading issue data from a simple text-based issue description, avoiding any actual GitHub use at all and making it easier to modify the test data. For issue tracker actions, the github package defaults in tests to not actually making changes, instead diverting edits into an in-memory log. Tests can then check the log to see whether the right edits were requested. The rsc.io/gaby/internal/githubdocs package takes care of adding content from the downloaded GitHub state into the general document store. Currently the only GitHub-derived documents are one document per issue, consisting of the issue title and body. It may be worth experimenting with incorporating issue comments in some way, although they bring with them a significant amount of potential noise. Gaby will need to download and store Gerrit state into the database and then derive documents from it. That code has not yet been written, although rsc.io/gerrit/reviewdb provides a basic version that can be adapted. Gaby will also need to download and store project documentation into the database and derive documents from it corresponding to cutting the page at each heading. That code has been written but is not yet tested well enough to commit. It will be added later. The simplest job Gaby has is to go around fixing new comments, including issue descriptions (which look like comments but are a different kind of GitHub data). The rsc.io/gaby/internal/commentfix package implements this, watching GitHub state incrementally and applying a few kinds of rewrite rules to each new comment or issue body. The commentfix package allows automatically editing text, automatically editing URLs, and automatically hyperlinking text. The next job Gaby has is to respond to new issues with related issues and documents. The rsc.io/gaby/internal/related package implements this, watching GitHub state incrementally for new issues, filtering out ones that should be ignored, and then finding related issues and documents and posting a list. This package was originally intended to identify and automatically close duplicates, but the difference between a duplicate and a very similar or not-quite-fixed issue is too difficult a judgement to make for an LLM. Even so, the act of bringing forward related context that may have been forgotten or never known by the people reading the issue has turned out to be incredibly helpful. All of these pieces are put together in the main program, this package, rsc.io/gaby. The actual main package has no tests yet but is also incredibly straightforward. It does need tests, but we also need to identify ways that the hard-coded policies in the package can be lifted out into data that a natural language interface can manipulate. For example the current policy choices in package main amount to: These could be stored somewhere as data and manipulated and added to by the LLM in response to prompts from maintainers. And other features could be added and configured in a similar way. Exactly how to do this is an important thing to learn in future experimentation. As mentioned above, the two jobs Gaby does already are both fairly simple and straightforward. It seems like a general approach that should work well is well-written, well-tested deterministic traditional functionality such as the comment fixer and related-docs poster, configured by LLMs in response to specific directions or eventually higher-level goals specified by project maintainers. Other functionality that is worth exploring is rules for automatically labeling issues, rules for identifying issues or CLs that need to be pinged, rules for identifying CLs that need maintainer attention or that need submitting, and so on. Another stretch goal might be to identify when an issue needs more information and ask for that information. Of course, it would be very important not to ask for information that is already present or irrelevant, so getting that right would be a very high bar. There is no guarantee that today's LLMs work well enough to build a useful version of that. Another important area of future work will be running Gaby on top of cloud databases and then moving Gaby's own execution into the cloud. Getting it a server with a URL will enable GitHub callbacks instead of the current 2-minute polling loop, which will enable interactive conversations with Gaby. Overall, we believe that there are a few good ideas for ways that LLM-based bots can help make project maintainers' jobs easier and less monotonous, and they are waiting to be found. There are also many bad ideas, and they must be filtered out. Understanding the difference will take significant care, thought, and experimentation. We have work to do.

It should be noted that this `executes` your application, and it is up to the user to make sure there are no negative side effects (for example from init functions). Setting the environment variable `GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1` enables completion by replacing the argument parsing routine with the completion routine which outputs completions for the passed arguments.

If the GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set to "verbose", then descriptions of possible completion items will also be shown, if there are more than 1 completion items. To use this with bash completion, a simple file can be written which calls the binary which supports go-flags completion: Completion requires the parser option PassDoubleDash and is therefore enforced if the environment variable GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set.

Package flags provides an extensive command line option parser. The flags package is similar in functionality to the go built-in flag package but provides more options and uses reflection to provide a convenient and succinct way of specifying command line options. The following features are supported in go-flags: Additional features specific to Windows: The flags package uses structs, reflection and struct field tags to allow users to specify command line options. This results in very simple and concise specification of your application options. For example: This specifies one option with a short name -v and a long name --verbose. When either -v or --verbose is found on the command line, a 'true' value will be appended to the Verbose field. e.g. when specifying -vvv, the resulting value of Verbose will be {[true, true, true]}. Slice options work exactly the same as primitive type options, except that whenever the option is encountered, a value is appended to the slice. Map options from string to primitive type are also supported. On the command line, you specify the value for such an option as key:value. For example Then, the AuthorInfo map can be filled with something like -a name:Jesse -a "surname:van den Kieboom". Finally, for full control over the conversion between command line argument values and options, user defined types can choose to implement the Marshaler and Unmarshaler interfaces. The following is a list of tags for struct fields supported by go-flags: Either the `short:` tag or the `long:` must be specified to make the field eligible as an option. Option groups are a simple way to semantically separate your options. All options in a particular group are shown together in the help under the name of the group. Namespaces can be used to specify option long names more precisely and emphasize the options affiliation to their group. There are currently three ways to specify option groups. The flags package also has basic support for commands. Commands are often used in monolithic applications that support various commands or actions. Take git for example, all of the add, commit, checkout, etc. are called commands. Using commands you can easily separate multiple functions of your application.

biólogo is a bioinformatics library for the Go language. It is a work in progress. biólogo stems from the need to address the size and structure of modern genomic and metagenomic data sets. These properties enforce requirements on the libraries and languages used for analysis: In addition to the computational burden of massive data set sizes in modern genomics there is an increasing need for complex pipelines to resolve questions in tightening problem space and also a developing need to be able to develop new algorithms to allow novel approaches to interesting questions. These issues suggest the need for a simplicity in syntax to facilitate: Related to the second issue is the reluctance of some researchers to release code because of quality concerns http://www.nature.com/news/2010/101013/full/467753a.html The issue of code release is the first of the principles formalised in the Science Code Manifesto http://sciencecodemanifesto.org/ A language with a simple, yet expressive, syntax should facilitate development of higher quality code and thus help reduce this barrier to research code release. It seems that nearly every language has it own bioinformatics library, some of which are very mature, for example BioPerl and BioPython. Why add another one? The different libraries excel in different fields, acting as scripting glue for applications in a pipeline (much of [1-3]) and interacting with external hosts [1, 2, 4, 5], wrapping lower level high performance languages with more user friendly syntax [1-4] or providing bioinformatics functions for high performance languages [5, 6]. The intended niche for biólogo lies somewhere between the scripting libraries and high performance language libraries in being easy to use for both small and large projects while having reasonable performance with computationally intensive tasks. The intent is to reduce the level of investment required to develop new research software for computationally intensive tasks. The biólogo library structure is influenced both by the structure of BioPerl and the Go core libraries. The coding style is increasingly aligning itself with the style of Go core library (I hope), although the use of 'self' as the receiver variable is aligned with the BioPerl and BioPython coding styles. While this complicates refactoring, I currently feel that it provides a more informative description of the underlying intent of the code. The alignment with the BioPerl and BioPython styles is also intended to ease adoption by bioinformatics researchers, many of whom use these libraries. Position numbering in the biólogo library conforms to the zero-based indexing of Go and range indexing conforms to Go's half-open zero-based slice indexing. This is at odds with the 'normal' inclusive indexing used by molecular biologists. This choice was made to avoid inconsistent indexing spaces being used — one-based inclusive for biólogo functions and methods and zero-based for native Go slices and arrays — and so avoid errors that this would otherwise facilitate. Note that the GFF package does allow, and defaults to, one-based inclusive indexing in its input and output of GFF files. Quality scores are supported for all sequence types, including protein. Phred and Solexa scoring systems are able to be read from files, however internal representation of quality scores is with Phred, so there will be precision loss in conversion. A Solexa quality score type is provided for use where this will be a problem. biólogo is the Spanish for biologist and in the tradition of Go packages includes the word Go. It is in no way related to the Logo programming language; there are no turtles. Copyright ©2011-2012 Dan Kortschak <dan.kortschak@adelaide.edu.au> except where otherwise noted.

github.com/giorgiopiatti/rm2pdf

rm2pdf MIT Licensed RCL January 2020 This programme attempts to create annotated A4 PDF files from reMarkable tablet file groups (RM bundles), including .rm files recording marks. Normally these files will be in a local directory, such as an xochitl directory synchronised to a tablet over sshfs. The programme takes as input either: * The path to the PDF file which has had annotations made to it * The path to the RM bundle with uuid, such as <path>/<uuid> with no filename extension, together with a PDF template to use for the background (a blank A4 template is provided in templates/A4.pdf). The resulting PDF is layered with the background and .rm file layers each in a separated PDF layer. The .rm file marks are stroked using the fpdf PDF library, although .rm tilt and pressure characteristics are not represented in the PDF output. PDF files from sources such as Microsoft Word do not always work well. It can help to rewrite them using the pdftk tool, e.g. by doing Custom colours for some pens can be specified using the -c or --colours switch, which overrides the default pen selection. A second -c switch sets the colours on the second layer, and so on. Example of processing an rm bundle without a pdf: Example of processing an rm bundle with a pdf, and per-layer colours: General options: Warning: the OutputFile will be overwritten if it exists. The parser is a go port of reMarkable tablet "lines" or ".rm" file parser, with binary decoding hints drawn from rm2svg https://github.com/reHackable/maxio/blob/master/tools/rM2svg which in turn refers to https://github.com/lschwetlick/maxio/tree/master/tools. Python struct format codes referred to in the parser, such as "<{}sI" are from rm2svg. RMParser provides a python-like iterator based on bufio.Scan, which iterates over the referenced reMarkable .rm file returning a data structure consisting of each path with its associated layer and path segments. Usage example: Pen selections are hard-coded in stroke.go with widths, opacities and colours. The StrokeSetting interface "Width" is used to scale strokes based on nothing more than what seems to be about right. Resolving the page sizes and reMarkable output resolution was based on the reMarkable png templates and viewing the reMarkable app's output x and y widths. These dimensions are noted in pdf.go in PDF_WIDTH_IN_MM and PDF_HEIGHT_IN_MM. Conversion from mm to points (MM_TO_RMPOINTS) and from points to the resolution of the reMarkable tablet (PTS_2_RMPTS) is also set in pdf.go. The theoretical conversion factor is slightly altered based on the output from various tests, including those in the testfiles directory. To view the testfiles after processing use or alter the paths used in the tests.

Package gosnowflake is a pure Go Snowflake driver for the database/sql package. Clients can use the database/sql package directly. For example: Use the Open() function to create a database handle with connection parameters: The Go Snowflake Driver supports the following connection syntaxes (or data source name (DSN) formats): where all parameters must be escaped or use Config and DSN to construct a DSN string. For information about account identifiers, see the Snowflake documentation (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/admin-account-identifier.html). The following example opens a database handle with the Snowflake account named "my_account" under the organization named "my_organization", where the username is "jsmith", password is "mypassword", database is "mydb", schema is "testschema", and warehouse is "mywh": The connection string (DSN) can contain both connection parameters (described below) and session parameters (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/parameters.html). The following connection parameters are supported: account <string>: Specifies your Snowflake account, where "<string>" is the account identifier assigned to your account by Snowflake. For information about account identifiers, see the Snowflake documentation (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/admin-account-identifier.html). If you are using a global URL, then append the connection group and ".global" (e.g. "<account_identifier>-<connection_group>.global"). The account identifier and the connection group are separated by a dash ("-"), as shown above. This parameter is optional if your account identifier is specified after the "@" character in the connection string. region <string>: DEPRECATED. You may specify a region, such as "eu-central-1", with this parameter. However, since this parameter is deprecated, it is best to specify the region as part of the account parameter. For details, see the description of the account parameter. database: Specifies the database to use by default in the client session (can be changed after login). schema: Specifies the database schema to use by default in the client session (can be changed after login). warehouse: Specifies the virtual warehouse to use by default for queries, loading, etc. in the client session (can be changed after login). role: Specifies the role to use by default for accessing Snowflake objects in the client session (can be changed after login). passcode: Specifies the passcode provided by Duo when using multi-factor authentication (MFA) for login. passcodeInPassword: false by default. Set to true if the MFA passcode is embedded in the login password. Appends the MFA passcode to the end of the password. loginTimeout: Specifies the timeout, in seconds, for login. The default is 60 seconds. The login request gives up after the timeout length if the HTTP response is success. authenticator: Specifies the authenticator to use for authenticating user credentials: To use the internal Snowflake authenticator, specify snowflake (Default). To authenticate through Okta, specify https://<okta_account_name>.okta.com (URL prefix for Okta). To authenticate using your IDP via a browser, specify externalbrowser. To authenticate via OAuth, specify oauth and provide an OAuth Access Token (see the token parameter below). application: Identifies your application to Snowflake Support. insecureMode: false by default. Set to true to bypass the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) certificate revocation check. IMPORTANT: Change the default value for testing or emergency situations only. token: a token that can be used to authenticate. Should be used in conjunction with the "oauth" authenticator. client_session_keep_alive: Set to true have a heartbeat in the background every hour to keep the connection alive such that the connection session will never expire. Care should be taken in using this option as it opens up the access forever as long as the process is alive. ocspFailOpen: true by default. Set to false to make OCSP check fail closed mode. validateDefaultParameters: true by default. Set to false to disable checks on existence and privileges check for Database, Schema, Warehouse and Role when setting up the connection All other parameters are interpreted as session parameters (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/parameters.html). For example, the TIMESTAMP_OUTPUT_FORMAT session parameter can be set by adding: A complete connection string looks similar to the following: Session-level parameters can also be set by using the SQL command "ALTER SESSION" (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/alter-session.html). Alternatively, use OpenWithConfig() function to create a database handle with the specified Config. The Go Snowflake Driver honors the environment variables HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY and NO_PROXY for the forward proxy setting. NO_PROXY specifies which hostname endings should be allowed to bypass the proxy server, e.g. no_proxy=.amazonaws.com means that Amazon S3 access does not need to go through the proxy. NO_PROXY does not support wildcards. Each value specified should be one of the following: The end of a hostname (or a complete hostname), for example: ".amazonaws.com" or "xy12345.snowflakecomputing.com". An IP address, for example "192.196.1.15". If more than one value is specified, values should be separated by commas, for example: By default, the driver's builtin logger is exposing logrus's FieldLogger and default at INFO level. Users can use SetLogger in driver.go to set a customized logger for gosnowflake package. In order to enable debug logging for the driver, user could use SetLogLevel("debug") in SFLogger interface as shown in demo code at cmd/logger.go. To redirect the logs SFlogger.SetOutput method could do the work. A specific query request ID can be set in the context and will be passed through in place of the default randomized request ID. For example: From 0.5.0, a signal handling responsibility has moved to the applications. If you want to cancel a query/command by Ctrl+C, add a os.Interrupt trap in context to execute methods that can take the context parameter (e.g. QueryContext, ExecContext). See cmd/selectmany.go for the full example. The Go Snowflake Driver now supports the Arrow data format for data transfers between Snowflake and the Golang client. The Arrow data format avoids extra conversions between binary and textual representations of the data. The Arrow data format can improve performance and reduce memory consumption in clients. Snowflake continues to support the JSON data format. The data format is controlled by the session-level parameter GO_QUERY_RESULT_FORMAT. To use JSON format, execute: The valid values for the parameter are: If the user attempts to set the parameter to an invalid value, an error is returned. The parameter name and the parameter value are case-insensitive. This parameter can be set only at the session level. Usage notes: The Arrow data format reduces rounding errors in floating point numbers. You might see slightly different values for floating point numbers when using Arrow format than when using JSON format. In order to take advantage of the increased precision, you must pass in the context.Context object provided by the WithHigherPrecision function when querying. Traditionally, the rows.Scan() method returned a string when a variable of types interface was passed in. Turning on the flag ENABLE_HIGHER_PRECISION via WithHigherPrecision will return the natural, expected data type as well. For some numeric data types, the driver can retrieve larger values when using the Arrow format than when using the JSON format. For example, using Arrow format allows the full range of SQL NUMERIC(38,0) values to be retrieved, while using JSON format allows only values in the range supported by the Golang int64 data type. Users should ensure that Golang variables are declared using the appropriate data type for the full range of values contained in the column. For an example, see below. When using the Arrow format, the driver supports more Golang data types and more ways to convert SQL values to those Golang data types. The table below lists the supported Snowflake SQL data types and the corresponding Golang data types. The columns are: The SQL data type. The default Golang data type that is returned when you use snowflakeRows.Scan() to read data from Arrow data format via an interface{}. The possible Golang data types that can be returned when you use snowflakeRows.Scan() to read data from Arrow data format directly. The default Golang data type that is returned when you use snowflakeRows.Scan() to read data from JSON data format via an interface{}. (All returned values are strings.) The standard Golang data type that is returned when you use snowflakeRows.Scan() to read data from JSON data format directly.

[2] Attempting to convert from a higher precision data type to a lower precision data type via interface{} causes an error. [3] Higher precision data types like *big.Int and *big.Float can be accessed by querying with a context returned by WithHigherPrecision(). [4] You cannot directly Scan() into the alternative data types via snowflakeRows.Scan(), but can convert to those data types by using .Int64()/.String()/.Uint64() methods. For an example, see below. [5] You cannot directly Scan() into the alternative data types via snowflakeRows.Scan(), but can convert to those data types by using .Float32()/.String()/.Float64() methods. For an example, see below. Note: SQL NULL values are converted to Golang nil values, and vice-versa. The following example shows how to retrieve very large values using the math/big package. This example retrieves a large INTEGER value to an interface and then extracts a big.Int value from that interface. If the value fits into an int64, then the code also copies the value to a variable of type int64. Note that a context that enables higher precision must be passed in with the query. If the variable named "rows" is known to contain a big.Int, then you can use the following instead of scanning into an interface and then converting to a big.Int: If the variable named "rows" contains a big.Int, then each of the following fails: Similar code and rules also apply to big.Float values. If you are not sure what data type will be returned, you can use code similar to the following to check the data type of the returned value: Binding allows a SQL statement to use a value that is stored in a Golang variable. Without binding, a SQL statement specifies values by specifying literals inside the statement. For example, the following statement uses the literal value “42“ in an UPDATE statement: With binding, you can execute a SQL statement that uses a value that is inside a variable. For example: The “?“ inside the “VALUES“ clause specifies that the SQL statement uses the value from a variable. Binding data that involves time zones can require special handling. For details, see the section titled "Timestamps with Time Zones". Version 1.3.9 (and later) of the Go Snowflake Driver supports the ability to bind an array variable to a parameter in a SQL INSERT statement. You can use this technique to insert multiple rows in a single batch. As an example, the following code inserts rows into a table that contains integer, float, boolean, and string columns. The example binds arrays to the parameters in the INSERT statement. Note: For alternative ways to load data into the Snowflake database (including bulk loading using the COPY command), see Loading Data into Snowflake (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide-data-load.html). When you use array binding to insert a large number of values, the driver can improve performance by streaming the data (without creating files on the local machine) to a temporary stage for ingestion. The driver automatically does this when the number of values exceeds a threshold (no changes are needed to user code). In order for the driver to send the data to a temporary stage, the user must have the following privilege on the schema: If the user does not have this privilege, the driver falls back to sending the data with the query to the Snowflake database. In addition, the current database and schema for the session must be set. If these are not set, the CREATE TEMPORARY STAGE command executed by the driver can fail with the following error: For alternative ways to load data into the Snowflake database (including bulk loading using the COPY command), see Loading Data into Snowflake (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide-data-load.html). Go's database/sql package supports the ability to bind a parameter in a SQL statement to a time.Time variable. However, when the client binds data to send to the server, the driver cannot determine the correct Snowflake date/timestamp data type to associate with the binding parameter. For example: To resolve this issue, a binding parameter flag is introduced that associates any subsequent time.Time type to the DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP_LTZ, TIMESTAMP_NTZ or BINARY data type. The above example could be rewritten as follows: The driver fetches TIMESTAMP_TZ (timestamp with time zone) data using the offset-based Location types, which represent a collection of time offsets in use in a geographical area, such as CET (Central European Time) or UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). The offset-based Location data is generated and cached when a Go Snowflake Driver application starts, and if the given offset is not in the cache, it is generated dynamically. Currently, Snowflake does not support the name-based Location types (e.g. "America/Los_Angeles"). For more information about Location types, see the Go documentation for https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Location. Internally, this feature leverages the []byte data type. As a result, BINARY data cannot be bound without the binding parameter flag. In the following example, sf is an alias for the gosnowflake package: The driver directly downloads a result set from the cloud storage if the size is large. It is required to shift workloads from the Snowflake database to the clients for scale. The download takes place by goroutine named "Chunk Downloader" asynchronously so that the driver can fetch the next result set while the application can consume the current result set. The application may change the number of result set chunk downloader if required. Note this does not help reduce memory footprint by itself. Consider Custom JSON Decoder. Custom JSON Decoder for Parsing Result Set (Experimental) The application may have the driver use a custom JSON decoder that incrementally parses the result set as follows. This option will reduce the memory footprint to half or even quarter, but it can significantly degrade the performance depending on the environment. The test cases running on Travis Ubuntu box show five times less memory footprint while four times slower. Be cautious when using the option. The Go Snowflake Driver supports JWT (JSON Web Token) authentication. To enable this feature, construct the DSN with fields "authenticator=SNOWFLAKE_JWT&privateKey=<your_private_key>", or using a Config structure specifying: The <your_private_key> should be a base64 URL encoded PKCS8 rsa private key string. One way to encode a byte slice to URL base 64 URL format is through the base64.URLEncoding.EncodeToString() function. On the server side, you can alter the public key with the SQL command: The <your_public_key> should be a base64 Standard encoded PKI public key string. One way to encode a byte slice to base 64 Standard format is through the base64.StdEncoding.EncodeToString() function. To generate the valid key pair, you can execute the following commands in the shell: Note: As of February 2020, Golang's official library does not support passcode-encrypted PKCS8 private key. For security purposes, Snowflake highly recommends that you store the passcode-encrypted private key on the disk and decrypt the key in your application using a library you trust. This feature is available in version 1.3.8 or later of the driver. By default, Snowflake returns an error for queries issued with multiple statements. This restriction helps protect against SQL Injection attacks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection). The multi-statement feature allows users skip this restriction and execute multiple SQL statements through a single Golang function call. However, this opens up the possibility for SQL injection, so it should be used carefully. The risk can be reduced by specifying the exact number of statements to be executed, which makes it more difficult to inject a statement by appending it. More details are below. The Go Snowflake Driver provides two functions that can execute multiple SQL statements in a single call: To compose a multi-statement query, simply create a string that contains all the queries, separated by semicolons, in the order in which the statements should be executed. To protect against SQL Injection attacks while using the multi-statement feature, pass a Context that specifies the number of statements in the string. For example: When multiple queries are executed by a single call to QueryContext(), multiple result sets are returned. After you process the first result set, get the next result set (for the next SQL statement) by calling NextResultSet(). The following pseudo-code shows how to process multiple result sets: The function db.ExecContext() returns a single result, which is the sum of the number of rows changed by each individual statement. For example, if your multi-statement query executed two UPDATE statements, each of which updated 10 rows, then the result returned would be 20. Individual row counts for individual statements are not available. The following code shows how to retrieve the result of a multi-statement query executed through db.ExecContext(): Note: Because a multi-statement ExecContext() returns a single value, you cannot detect offsetting errors. For example, suppose you expected the return value to be 20 because you expected each UPDATE statement to update 10 rows. If one UPDATE statement updated 15 rows and the other UPDATE statement updated only 5 rows, the total would still be 20. You would see no indication that the UPDATES had not functioned as expected. The ExecContext() function does not return an error if passed a query (e.g. a SELECT statement). However, it still returns only a single value, not a result set, so using it to execute queries (or a mix of queries and non-query statements) is impractical. The QueryContext() function does not return an error if passed non-query statements (e.g. DML). The function returns a result set for each statement, whether or not the statement is a query. For each non-query statement, the result set contains a single row that contains a single column; the value is the number of rows changed by the statement. If you want to execute a mix of query and non-query statements (e.g. a mix of SELECT and DML statements) in a multi-statement query, use QueryContext(). You can retrieve the result sets for the queries, and you can retrieve or ignore the row counts for the non-query statements. Note: PUT statements are not supported for multi-statement queries. If a SQL statement passed to ExecQuery() or QueryContext() fails to compile or execute, that statement is aborted, and subsequent statements are not executed. Any statements prior to the aborted statement are unaffected. For example, if the statements below are run as one multi-statement query, the multi-statement query fails on the third statement, and an exception is thrown. If you then query the contents of the table named "test", the values 1 and 2 would be present. When using the QueryContext() and ExecContext() functions, golang code can check for errors the usual way. For example: Preparing statements and using bind variables are also not supported for multi-statement queries. The Go Snowflake Driver supports asynchronous execution of SQL statements. Asynchronous execution allows you to start executing a statement and then retrieve the result later without being blocked while waiting. While waiting for the result of a SQL statement, you can perform other tasks, including executing other SQL statements. Most of the steps to execute an asynchronous query are the same as the steps to execute a synchronous query. However, there is an additional step, which is that you must call the WithAsyncMode() function to update your Context object to specify that asynchronous mode is enabled. In the code below, the call to "WithAsyncMode()" is specific to asynchronous mode. The rest of the code is compatible with both asynchronous mode and synchronous mode. The function db.QueryContext() returns an object of type snowflakeRows regardless of whether the query is synchronous or asynchronous. However: The call to the Next() function of snowflakeRows is always synchronous (i.e. blocking). If the query has not yet completed and the snowflakeRows object (named "rows" in this example) has not been filled in yet, then rows.Next() waits until the result set has been filled in. More generally, calls to any Golang SQL API function implemented in snowflakeRows or snowflakeResult are blocking calls, and wait if results are not yet available. (Examples of other synchronous calls include: snowflakeRows.Err(), snowflakeRows.Columns(), snowflakeRows.columnTypes(), snowflakeRows.Scan(), and snowflakeResult.RowsAffected().) Because the example code above executes only one query and no other activity, there is no significant difference in behavior between asynchronous and synchronous behavior. The differences become significant if, for example, you want to perform some other activity after the query starts and before it completes. The example code below starts multiple queries, which run in the background, and then retrieves the results later. This example uses small SELECT statements that do not retrieve enough data to require asynchronous handling. However, the technique works for larger data sets, and for situations where the programmer might want to do other work after starting the queries and before retrieving the results. The Go Snowflake Driver supports the PUT and GET commands. The PUT command copies a file from a local computer (the computer where the Golang client is running) to a stage on the cloud platform. The GET command copies data files from a stage on the cloud platform to a local computer. See the following for information on the syntax and supported parameters: The following example shows how to run a PUT command by passing a string to the db.Query() function: "<local_file>" should include the file path as well as the name. Snowflake recommends using an absolute path rather than a relative path. For example: Different client platforms (e.g. linux, Windows) have different path name conventions. Ensure that you specify path names appropriately. This is particularly important on Windows, which uses the backslash character as both an escape character and as a separator in path names. To send information from a stream (rather than a file) use code similar to the code below. (The ReplaceAll() function is needed on Windows to handle backslashes in the path to the file.) Note: PUT statements are not supported for multi-statement queries. The following example shows how to run a GET command by passing a string to the db.Query() function: "<local_file>" should include the file path as well as the name. Snowflake recommends using an absolute path rather than a relative path. For example:

github.com/RichardoC/go-flags

Package flags provides an extensive command line option parser. The flags package is similar in functionality to the go built-in flag package but provides more options and uses reflection to provide a convenient and succinct way of specifying command line options. The following features are supported in go-flags: Additional features specific to Windows: The flags package uses structs, reflection and struct field tags to allow users to specify command line options. This results in very simple and concise specification of your application options. For example: This specifies one option with a short name -v and a long name --verbose. When either -v or --verbose is found on the command line, a 'true' value will be appended to the Verbose field. e.g. when specifying -vvv, the resulting value of Verbose will be {[true, true, true]}. Slice options work exactly the same as primitive type options, except that whenever the option is encountered, a value is appended to the slice. Map options from string to primitive type are also supported. On the command line, you specify the value for such an option as key:value. For example Then, the AuthorInfo map can be filled with something like -a name:Jesse -a "surname:van den Kieboom". Finally, for full control over the conversion between command line argument values and options, user defined types can choose to implement the Marshaler and Unmarshaler interfaces. The following is a list of tags for struct fields supported by go-flags: Either the `short:` tag or the `long:` must be specified to make the field eligible as an option. Option groups are a simple way to semantically separate your options. All options in a particular group are shown together in the help under the name of the group. Namespaces can be used to specify option long names more precisely and emphasize the options affiliation to their group. There are currently three ways to specify option groups. The flags package also has basic support for commands. Commands are often used in monolithic applications that support various commands or actions. Take git for example, all of the add, commit, checkout, etc. are called commands. Using commands you can easily separate multiple functions of your application. There are currently two ways to specify a command. The most common, idiomatic way to implement commands is to define a global parser instance and implement each command in a separate file. These command files should define a go init function which calls AddCommand on the global parser. When parsing ends and there is an active command and that command implements the Commander interface, then its Execute method will be run with the remaining command line arguments. Command structs can have options which become valid to parse after the command has been specified on the command line, in addition to the options of all the parent commands. I.e. considering a -v flag on the parser and an add command, the following are equivalent: However, if the -v flag is defined on the add command, then the first of the two examples above would fail since the -v flag is not defined before the add command. go-flags has builtin support to provide bash completion of flags, commands and argument values. To use completion, the binary which uses go-flags can be invoked in a special environment to list completion of the current command line argument. It should be noted that this `executes` your application, and it is up to the user to make sure there are no negative side effects (for example from init functions). Setting the environment variable `GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1` enables completion by replacing the argument parsing routine with the completion routine which outputs completions for the passed arguments. The basic invocation to complete a set of arguments is therefore: where `completion-example` is the binary, `arg1` and `arg2` are the current arguments, and `arg3` (the last argument) is the argument to be completed. If the GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set to "verbose", then descriptions of possible completion items will also be shown, if there are more than 1 completion items. To use this with bash completion, a simple file can be written which calls the binary which supports go-flags completion: Completion requires the parser option PassDoubleDash and is therefore enforced if the environment variable GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set. Customized completion for argument values is supported by implementing the flags.Completer interface for the argument value type. An example of a type which does so is the flags.Filename type, an alias of string allowing simple filename completion. A slice or array argument value whose element type implements flags.Completer will also be completed.

github.com/doxsch/properties

Package properties provides functions for reading and writing ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 encoded .properties files and has support for recursive property expansion. Java properties files are ISO-8859-1 encoded and use Unicode literals for characters outside the ISO character set. Unicode literals can be used in UTF-8 encoded properties files but aren't necessary. To load a single properties file use MustLoadFile(): To load multiple properties files use MustLoadFiles() which loads the files in the given order and merges the result. Missing properties files can be ignored if the 'ignoreMissing' flag is set to true. Filenames can contain environment variables which are expanded before loading. All of the different key/value delimiters ' ', ':' and '=' are supported as well as the comment characters '!' and '#' and multi-line values. Properties stores all comments preceding a key and provides GetComments() and SetComments() methods to retrieve and update them. The convenience functions GetComment() and SetComment() allow access to the last comment. The WriteComment() method writes properties files including the comments and with the keys in the original order. This can be used for sanitizing properties files. Property expansion is recursive and circular references and malformed expressions are not allowed and cause an error. Expansion of environment variables is supported. The default property expansion format is ${key} but can be changed by setting different pre- and postfix values on the Properties object. Properties provides convenience functions for getting typed values with default values if the key does not exist or the type conversion failed. As an alternative properties may be applied with the standard library's flag implementation at any time. Properties provides several MustXXX() convenience functions which will terminate the app if an error occurs. The behavior of the failure is configurable and the default is to call log.Fatal(err). To have the MustXXX() functions panic instead of logging the error set a different ErrorHandler before you use the Properties package. You can also provide your own ErrorHandler function. The only requirement is that the error handler function must exit after handling the error. Properties can also be loaded into a struct via the `Decode` method, e.g. See `Decode()` method for the full documentation. The following documents provide a description of the properties file format. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.properties http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html#load%28java.io.Reader%29

Command structs can have options which become valid to parse after the command has been specified on the command line, in addition to the options of all the parent commands. I.e. considering a -v flag on the parser and an add command, the following are equivalent: However, if the -v flag is defined on the add command, then the first of the two examples above would fail since the -v flag is not defined before the add command. go-flags has builtin support to provide bash completion of flags, commands and argument values. To use completion, the binary which uses go-flags can be invoked in a special environment to list completion of the current command line argument. It should be noted that this `executes` your application, and it is up to the user to make sure there are no negative side effects (for example from init functions). Setting the environment variable `GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1` enables completion by replacing the argument parsing routine with the completion routine which outputs completions for the passed arguments. The basic invocation to complete a set of arguments is therefore: where `completion-example` is the binary, `arg1` and `arg2` are the current arguments, and `arg3` (the last argument) is the argument to be completed. If the GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set to "verbose", then descriptions of possible completion items will also be shown, if there are more than 1 completion items. To use this with bash completion, a simple file can be written which calls the binary which supports go-flags completion: Completion requires the parser option PassDoubleDash and is therefore enforced if the environment variable GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set. Customized completion for argument values is supported by implementing the flags.Completer interface for the argument value type. An example of a type which does so is the flags.Filename type, an alias of string allowing simple filename completion. A slice or array argument value whose element type implements flags.Completer will also be completed.

Package flags provides an extensive command line option parser. The flags package is similar in functionality to the go built-in flag package but provides more options and uses reflection to provide a convenient and succinct way of specifying command line options. The following features are supported in go-flags: Additional features specific to Windows: The flags package uses structs, reflection and struct field tags to allow users to specify command line options. This results in very simple and concise specification of your application options. For example: This specifies one option with a short name -v and a long name --verbose. When either -v or --verbose is found on the command line, a 'true' value will be appended to the Verbose field. e.g. when specifying -vvv, the resulting value of Verbose will be {[true, true, true]}. Slice options work exactly the same as primitive type options, except that whenever the option is encountered, a value is appended to the slice. Map options from string to primitive type are also supported. On the command line, you specify the value for such an option as key:value. For example Then, the AuthorInfo map can be filled with something like -a name:Jesse -a "surname:van den Kieboom". Finally, for full control over the conversion between command line argument values and options, user defined types can choose to implement the Marshaler and Unmarshaler interfaces. The following is a list of tags for struct fields supported by go-flags: Either the `short:` tag or the `long:` must be specified to make the field eligible as an option. Option groups are a simple way to semantically separate your options. All options in a particular group are shown together in the help under the name of the group. Namespaces can be used to specify option long names more precisely and emphasize the options affiliation to their group. There are currently three ways to specify option groups. The flags package also has basic support for commands. Commands are often used in monolithic applications that support various commands or actions. Take git for example, all of the add, commit, checkout, etc. are called commands. Using commands you can easily separate multiple functions of your application. There are currently two ways to specify a command. The most common, idiomatic way to implement commands is to define a global parser instance and implement each command in a separate file. These command files should define a go init function which calls AddCommand on the global parser. When parsing ends and there is an active command and that command implements the Commander interface, then its Execute method will be run with the remaining command line arguments. Command structs can have options which become valid to parse after the command has been specified on the command line, in addition to the options of all the parent commands. I.e. considering a -v flag on the parser and an add command, the following are equivalent: However, if the -v flag is defined on the add command, then the first of the two examples above would fail since the -v flag is not defined before the add command. go-flags has builtin support to provide bash completion of flags, commands and argument values. To use completion, the binary which uses go-flags can be invoked in a special environment to list completion of the current command line argument. It should be noted that this `executes` your application, and it is up to the user to make sure there are no negative side effects (for example from init functions). Setting the environment variable `GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1` enables completion by replacing the argument parsing routine with the completion routine which outputs completions for the passed arguments. The basic invocation to complete a set of arguments is therefore: where `completion-example` is the binary, `arg1` and `arg2` are the current arguments, and `arg3` (the last argument) is the argument to be completed. If the GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set to "verbose", then descriptions of possible completion items will also be shown, if there are more than 1 completion items. To use this with bash completion, a simple file can be written which calls the binary which supports go-flags completion: Completion requires the parser option PassDoubleDash and is therefore enforced if the environment variable GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set. Customized completion for argument values is supported by implementing the flags.Completer interface for the argument value type. An example of a type which does so is the flags.Filename type, an alias of string allowing simple filename completion. A slice or array argument value whose element type implements flags.Completer will also be completed.

gitlab.com/cznic/ql

Package ql implements a pure Go embedded SQL database engine. QL is a member of the SQL family of languages. It is less complex and less powerful than SQL (whichever specification SQL is considered to be). 2018-11-04: Back end file format V2 is now released. To use the new format for newly created databases set the FileFormat field in *Options passed to OpenFile to value 2 or use the driver named "ql2" instead of "ql". - Both the old and new driver will properly open and use, read and write the old (V1) or new file (V2) format of an existing database. - V1 format has a record size limit of ~64 kB. V2 format record size limit is math.MaxInt32. - V1 format uncommitted transaction size is limited by memory resources. V2 format uncommitted transaction is limited by free disk space. - A direct consequence of the previous is that small transactions perform better using V1 format and big transactions perform better using V2 format. - V2 format uses substantially less memory. 2018-08-02: Release v1.2.0 adds initial support for Go modules. 2017-01-10: Release v1.1.0 fixes some bugs and adds a configurable WAL headroom. 2016-07-29: Release v1.0.6 enables alternatively using = instead of == for equality operation. 2016-07-11: Release v1.0.5 undoes vendoring of lldb. QL now uses stable lldb (modernc.org/lldb). 2016-07-06: Release v1.0.4 fixes a panic when closing the WAL file. 2016-04-03: Release v1.0.3 fixes a data race. 2016-03-23: Release v1.0.2 vendors gitlab.com/cznic/exp/lldb and github.com/camlistore/go4/lock. 2016-03-17: Release v1.0.1 adjusts for latest goyacc. Parser error messages are improved and changed, but their exact form is not considered a API change. 2016-03-05: The current version has been tagged v1.0.0. 2015-06-15: To improve compatibility with other SQL implementations, the count built-in aggregate function now accepts * as its argument. 2015-05-29: The execution planner was rewritten from scratch. It should use indices in all places where they were used before plus in some additional situations. It is possible to investigate the plan using the newly added EXPLAIN statement. The QL tool is handy for such analysis. If the planner would have used an index, but no such exists, the plan includes hints in form of copy/paste ready CREATE INDEX statements. The planner is still quite simple and a lot of work on it is yet ahead. You can help this process by filling an issue with a schema and query which fails to use an index or indices when it should, in your opinion. Bonus points for including output of `ql 'explain <query>'`. 2015-05-09: The grammar of the CREATE INDEX statement now accepts an expression list instead of a single expression, which was further limited to just a column name or the built-in id(). As a side effect, composite indices are now functional. However, the values in the expression-list style index are not yet used by other statements or the statement/query planner. The composite index is useful while having UNIQUE clause to check for semantically duplicate rows before they get added to the table or when such a row is mutated using the UPDATE statement and the expression-list style index tuple of the row is thus recomputed. 2015-05-02: The Schema field of table __Table now correctly reflects any column constraints and/or defaults. Also, the (*DB).Info method now has that information provided in new ColumInfo fields NotNull, Constraint and Default. 2015-04-20: Added support for {LEFT,RIGHT,FULL} [OUTER] JOIN. 2015-04-18: Column definitions can now have constraints and defaults. Details are discussed in the "Constraints and defaults" chapter below the CREATE TABLE statement documentation. 2015-03-06: New built-in functions formatFloat and formatInt. Thanks urandom! (https://github.com/urandom) 2015-02-16: IN predicate now accepts a SELECT statement. See the updated "Predicates" section. 2015-01-17: Logical operators || and && have now alternative spellings: OR and AND (case insensitive). AND was a keyword before, but OR is a new one. This can possibly break existing queries. For the record, it's a good idea to not use any name appearing in, for example, [7] in your queries as the list of QL's keywords may expand for gaining better compatibility with existing SQL "standards". 2015-01-12: ACID guarantees were tightened at the cost of performance in some cases. The write collecting window mechanism, a formerly used implementation detail, was removed. Inserting rows one by one in a transaction is now slow. I mean very slow. Try to avoid inserting single rows in a transaction. Instead, whenever possible, perform batch updates of tens to, say thousands of rows in a single transaction. See also: http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q19, the discussed synchronization principles involved are the same as for QL, modulo minor details. Note: A side effect is that closing a DB before exiting an application, both for the Go API and through database/sql driver, is no more required, strictly speaking. Beware that exiting an application while there is an open (uncommitted) transaction in progress means losing the transaction data. However, the DB will not become corrupted because of not closing it. Nor that was the case before, but formerly failing to close a DB could have resulted in losing the data of the last transaction. 2014-09-21: id() now optionally accepts a single argument - a table name. 2014-09-01: Added the DB.Flush() method and the LIKE pattern matching predicate. 2014-08-08: The built in functions max and min now accept also time values. Thanks opennota! (https://github.com/opennota) 2014-06-05: RecordSet interface extended by new methods FirstRow and Rows. 2014-06-02: Indices on id() are now used by SELECT statements. 2014-05-07: Introduction of Marshal, Schema, Unmarshal. 2014-04-15: Added optional IF NOT EXISTS clause to CREATE INDEX and optional IF EXISTS clause to DROP INDEX. 2014-04-12: The column Unique in the virtual table __Index was renamed to IsUnique because the old name is a keyword. Unfortunately, this is a breaking change, sorry. 2014-04-11: Introduction of LIMIT, OFFSET. 2014-04-10: Introduction of query rewriting. 2014-04-07: Introduction of indices. QL imports zappy[8], a block-based compressor, which speeds up its performance by using a C version of the compression/decompression algorithms. If a CGO-free (pure Go) version of QL, or an app using QL, is required, please include 'purego' in the -tags option of go {build,get,install}. For example: If zappy was installed before installing QL, it might be necessary to rebuild zappy first (or rebuild QL with all its dependencies using the -a option): The syntax is specified using Extended Backus-Naur Form (EBNF) Lower-case production names are used to identify lexical tokens. Non-terminals are in CamelCase. Lexical tokens are enclosed in double quotes "" or back quotes “. The form a … b represents the set of characters from a through b as alternatives. The horizontal ellipsis … is also used elsewhere in the spec to informally denote various enumerations or code snippets that are not further specified. QL source code is Unicode text encoded in UTF-8. The text is not canonicalized, so a single accented code point is distinct from the same character constructed from combining an accent and a letter; those are treated as two code points. For simplicity, this document will use the unqualified term character to refer to a Unicode code point in the source text. Each code point is distinct; for instance, upper and lower case letters are different characters. Implementation restriction: For compatibility with other tools, the parser may disallow the NUL character (U+0000) in the statement. Implementation restriction: A byte order mark is disallowed anywhere in QL statements. The following terms are used to denote specific character classes The underscore character _ (U+005F) is considered a letter. Lexical elements are comments, tokens, identifiers, keywords, operators and delimiters, integer, floating-point, imaginary, rune and string literals and QL parameters. Line comments start with the character sequence // or -- and stop at the end of the line. A line comment acts like a space. General comments start with the character sequence /* and continue through the character sequence */. A general comment acts like a space. Comments do not nest. Tokens form the vocabulary of QL. There are four classes: identifiers, keywords, operators and delimiters, and literals. White space, formed from spaces (U+0020), horizontal tabs (U+0009), carriage returns (U+000D), and newlines (U+000A), is ignored except as it separates tokens that would otherwise combine into a single token. The formal grammar uses semicolons ";" as separators of QL statements. A single QL statement or the last QL statement in a list of statements can have an optional semicolon terminator. (Actually a separator from the following empty statement.) Identifiers name entities such as tables or record set columns. An identifier is a sequence of one or more letters and digits. The first character in an identifier must be a letter. For example No identifiers are predeclared, however note that no keyword can be used as an identifier. Identifiers starting with two underscores are used for meta data virtual tables names. For forward compatibility, users should generally avoid using any identifiers starting with two underscores. For example The following keywords are reserved and may not be used as identifiers. Keywords are not case sensitive. The following character sequences represent operators, delimiters, and other special tokens Operators consisting of more than one character are referred to by names in the rest of the documentation An integer literal is a sequence of digits representing an integer constant. An optional prefix sets a non-decimal base: 0 for octal, 0x or 0X for hexadecimal. In hexadecimal literals, letters a-f and A-F represent values 10 through 15. For example A floating-point literal is a decimal representation of a floating-point constant. It has an integer part, a decimal point, a fractional part, and an exponent part. The integer and fractional part comprise decimal digits; the exponent part is an e or E followed by an optionally signed decimal exponent. One of the integer part or the fractional part may be elided; one of the decimal point or the exponent may be elided. For example An imaginary literal is a decimal representation of the imaginary part of a complex constant. It consists of a floating-point literal or decimal integer followed by the lower-case letter i. For example A rune literal represents a rune constant, an integer value identifying a Unicode code point. A rune literal is expressed as one or more characters enclosed in single quotes. Within the quotes, any character may appear except single quote and newline. A single quoted character represents the Unicode value of the character itself, while multi-character sequences beginning with a backslash encode values in various formats. The simplest form represents the single character within the quotes; since QL statements are Unicode characters encoded in UTF-8, multiple UTF-8-encoded bytes may represent a single integer value. For instance, the literal 'a' holds a single byte representing a literal a, Unicode U+0061, value 0x61, while 'ä' holds two bytes (0xc3 0xa4) representing a literal a-dieresis, U+00E4, value 0xe4. Several backslash escapes allow arbitrary values to be encoded as ASCII text. There are four ways to represent the integer value as a numeric constant: \x followed by exactly two hexadecimal digits; \u followed by exactly four hexadecimal digits; \U followed by exactly eight hexadecimal digits, and a plain backslash \ followed by exactly three octal digits. In each case the value of the literal is the value represented by the digits in the corresponding base. Although these representations all result in an integer, they have different valid ranges. Octal escapes must represent a value between 0 and 255 inclusive. Hexadecimal escapes satisfy this condition by construction. The escapes \u and \U represent Unicode code points so within them some values are illegal, in particular those above 0x10FFFF and surrogate halves. After a backslash, certain single-character escapes represent special values All other sequences starting with a backslash are illegal inside rune literals. For example A string literal represents a string constant obtained from concatenating a sequence of characters. There are two forms: raw string literals and interpreted string literals. Raw string literals are character sequences between back quotes “. Within the quotes, any character is legal except back quote. The value of a raw string literal is the string composed of the uninterpreted (implicitly UTF-8-encoded) characters between the quotes; in particular, backslashes have no special meaning and the string may contain newlines. Carriage returns inside raw string literals are discarded from the raw string value. Interpreted string literals are character sequences between double quotes "". The text between the quotes, which may not contain newlines, forms the value of the literal, with backslash escapes interpreted as they are in rune literals (except that \' is illegal and \" is legal), with the same restrictions. The three-digit octal (\nnn) and two-digit hexadecimal (\xnn) escapes represent individual bytes of the resulting string; all other escapes represent the (possibly multi-byte) UTF-8 encoding of individual characters. Thus inside a string literal \377 and \xFF represent a single byte of value 0xFF=255, while ÿ, \u00FF, \U000000FF and \xc3\xbf represent the two bytes 0xc3 0xbf of the UTF-8 encoding of character U+00FF. For example These examples all represent the same string If the statement source represents a character as two code points, such as a combining form involving an accent and a letter, the result will be an error if placed in a rune literal (it is not a single code point), and will appear as two code points if placed in a string literal. Literals are assigned their values from the respective text representation at "compile" (parse) time. QL parameters provide the same functionality as literals, but their value is assigned at execution time from an expression list passed to DB.Run or DB.Execute. Using '?' or '$' is completely equivalent. For example Keywords 'false' and 'true' (not case sensitive) represent the two possible constant values of type bool (also not case sensitive). Keyword 'NULL' (not case sensitive) represents an untyped constant which is assignable to any type. NULL is distinct from any other value of any type. A type determines the set of values and operations specific to values of that type. A type is specified by a type name. Named instances of the boolean, numeric, and string types are keywords. The names are not case sensitive. Note: The blob type is exchanged between the back end and the API as []byte. On 32 bit platforms this limits the size which the implementation can handle to 2G. A boolean type represents the set of Boolean truth values denoted by the predeclared constants true and false. The predeclared boolean type is bool. A duration type represents the elapsed time between two instants as an int64 nanosecond count. The representation limits the largest representable duration to approximately 290 years. A numeric type represents sets of integer or floating-point values. The predeclared architecture-independent numeric types are The value of an n-bit integer is n bits wide and represented using two's complement arithmetic. Conversions are required when different numeric types are mixed in an expression or assignment. A string type represents the set of string values. A string value is a (possibly empty) sequence of bytes. The case insensitive keyword for the string type is 'string'. The length of a string (its size in bytes) can be discovered using the built-in function len. A time type represents an instant in time with nanosecond precision. Each time has associated with it a location, consulted when computing the presentation form of the time. The following functions are implicitly declared An expression specifies the computation of a value by applying operators and functions to operands. Operands denote the elementary values in an expression. An operand may be a literal, a (possibly qualified) identifier denoting a constant or a function or a table/record set column, or a parenthesized expression. A qualified identifier is an identifier qualified with a table/record set name prefix. For example Primary expression are the operands for unary and binary expressions. For example A primary expression of the form denotes the element of a string indexed by x. Its type is byte. The value x is called the index. The following rules apply - The index x must be of integer type except bigint or duration; it is in range if 0 <= x < len(s), otherwise it is out of range. - A constant index must be non-negative and representable by a value of type int. - A constant index must be in range if the string a is a literal. - If x is out of range at run time, a run-time error occurs. - s[x] is the byte at index x and the type of s[x] is byte. If s is NULL or x is NULL then the result is NULL. Otherwise s[x] is illegal. For a string, the primary expression constructs a substring. The indices low and high select which elements appear in the result. The result has indices starting at 0 and length equal to high - low. For convenience, any of the indices may be omitted. A missing low index defaults to zero; a missing high index defaults to the length of the sliced operand The indices low and high are in range if 0 <= low <= high <= len(a), otherwise they are out of range. A constant index must be non-negative and representable by a value of type int. If both indices are constant, they must satisfy low <= high. If the indices are out of range at run time, a run-time error occurs. Integer values of type bigint or duration cannot be used as indices. If s is NULL the result is NULL. If low or high is not omitted and is NULL then the result is NULL. Given an identifier f denoting a predeclared function, calls f with arguments a1, a2, … an. Arguments are evaluated before the function is called. The type of the expression is the result type of f. In a function call, the function value and arguments are evaluated in the usual order. After they are evaluated, the parameters of the call are passed by value to the function and the called function begins execution. The return value of the function is passed by value when the function returns. Calling an undefined function causes a compile-time error. Operators combine operands into expressions. Comparisons are discussed elsewhere. For other binary operators, the operand types must be identical unless the operation involves shifts or untyped constants. For operations involving constants only, see the section on constant expressions. Except for shift operations, if one operand is an untyped constant and the other operand is not, the constant is converted to the type of the other operand. The right operand in a shift expression must have unsigned integer type or be an untyped constant that can be converted to unsigned integer type. If the left operand of a non-constant shift expression is an untyped constant, the type of the constant is what it would be if the shift expression were replaced by its left operand alone. Expressions of the form yield a boolean value true if expr2, a regular expression, matches expr1 (see also [6]). Both expression must be of type string. If any one of the expressions is NULL the result is NULL. Predicates are special form expressions having a boolean result type. Expressions of the form are equivalent, including NULL handling, to The types of involved expressions must be comparable as defined in "Comparison operators". Another form of the IN predicate creates the expression list from a result of a SelectStmt. The SelectStmt must select only one column. The produced expression list is resource limited by the memory available to the process. NULL values produced by the SelectStmt are ignored, but if all records of the SelectStmt are NULL the predicate yields NULL. The select statement is evaluated only once. If the type of expr is not the same as the type of the field returned by the SelectStmt then the set operation yields false. The type of the column returned by the SelectStmt must be one of the simple (non blob-like) types: Expressions of the form are equivalent, including NULL handling, to The types of involved expressions must be ordered as defined in "Comparison operators". Expressions of the form yield a boolean value true if expr does not have a specific type (case A) or if expr has a specific type (case B). In other cases the result is a boolean value false. Unary operators have the highest precedence. There are five precedence levels for binary operators. Multiplication operators bind strongest, followed by addition operators, comparison operators, && (logical AND), and finally || (logical OR) Binary operators of the same precedence associate from left to right. For instance, x / y * z is the same as (x / y) * z. Note that the operator precedence is reflected explicitly by the grammar. Arithmetic operators apply to numeric values and yield a result of the same type as the first operand. The four standard arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /) apply to integer, rational, floating-point, and complex types; + also applies to strings; +,- also applies to times. All other arithmetic operators apply to integers only. sum integers, rationals, floats, complex values, strings difference integers, rationals, floats, complex values, times product integers, rationals, floats, complex values / quotient integers, rationals, floats, complex values % remainder integers & bitwise AND integers | bitwise OR integers ^ bitwise XOR integers &^ bit clear (AND NOT) integers << left shift integer << unsigned integer >> right shift integer >> unsigned integer Strings can be concatenated using the + operator String addition creates a new string by concatenating the operands. A value of type duration can be added to or subtracted from a value of type time. Times can subtracted from each other producing a value of type duration. For two integer values x and y, the integer quotient q = x / y and remainder r = x % y satisfy the following relationships with x / y truncated towards zero ("truncated division"). As an exception to this rule, if the dividend x is the most negative value for the int type of x, the quotient q = x / -1 is equal to x (and r = 0). If the divisor is a constant expression, it must not be zero. If the divisor is zero at run time, a run-time error occurs. If the dividend is non-negative and the divisor is a constant power of 2, the division may be replaced by a right shift, and computing the remainder may be replaced by a bitwise AND operation The shift operators shift the left operand by the shift count specified by the right operand. They implement arithmetic shifts if the left operand is a signed integer and logical shifts if it is an unsigned integer. There is no upper limit on the shift count. Shifts behave as if the left operand is shifted n times by 1 for a shift count of n. As a result, x << 1 is the same as x*2 and x >> 1 is the same as x/2 but truncated towards negative infinity. For integer operands, the unary operators +, -, and ^ are defined as follows For floating-point and complex numbers, +x is the same as x, while -x is the negation of x. The result of a floating-point or complex division by zero is not specified beyond the IEEE-754 standard; whether a run-time error occurs is implementation-specific. Whenever any operand of any arithmetic operation, unary or binary, is NULL, as well as in the case of the string concatenating operation, the result is NULL. For unsigned integer values, the operations +, -, *, and << are computed modulo 2n, where n is the bit width of the unsigned integer's type. Loosely speaking, these unsigned integer operations discard high bits upon overflow, and expressions may rely on “wrap around”. For signed integers with a finite bit width, the operations +, -, *, and << may legally overflow and the resulting value exists and is deterministically defined by the signed integer representation, the operation, and its operands. No exception is raised as a result of overflow. An evaluator may not optimize an expression under the assumption that overflow does not occur. For instance, it may not assume that x < x + 1 is always true. Integers of type bigint and rationals do not overflow but their handling is limited by the memory resources available to the program. Comparison operators compare two operands and yield a boolean value. In any comparison, the first operand must be of same type as is the second operand, or vice versa. The equality operators == and != apply to operands that are comparable. The ordering operators <, <=, >, and >= apply to operands that are ordered. These terms and the result of the comparisons are defined as follows - Boolean values are comparable. Two boolean values are equal if they are either both true or both false. - Complex values are comparable. Two complex values u and v are equal if both real(u) == real(v) and imag(u) == imag(v). - Integer values are comparable and ordered, in the usual way. Note that durations are integers. - Floating point values are comparable and ordered, as defined by the IEEE-754 standard. - Rational values are comparable and ordered, in the usual way. - String and Blob values are comparable and ordered, lexically byte-wise. - Time values are comparable and ordered. Whenever any operand of any comparison operation is NULL, the result is NULL. Note that slices are always of type string. Logical operators apply to boolean values and yield a boolean result. The right operand is evaluated conditionally. The truth tables for logical operations with NULL values Conversions are expressions of the form T(x) where T is a type and x is an expression that can be converted to type T. A constant value x can be converted to type T in any of these cases: - x is representable by a value of type T. - x is a floating-point constant, T is a floating-point type, and x is representable by a value of type T after rounding using IEEE 754 round-to-even rules. The constant T(x) is the rounded value. - x is an integer constant and T is a string type. The same rule as for non-constant x applies in this case. Converting a constant yields a typed constant as result. A non-constant value x can be converted to type T in any of these cases: - x has type T. - x's type and T are both integer or floating point types. - x's type and T are both complex types. - x is an integer, except bigint or duration, and T is a string type. Specific rules apply to (non-constant) conversions between numeric types or to and from a string type. These conversions may change the representation of x and incur a run-time cost. All other conversions only change the type but not the representation of x. A conversion of NULL to any type yields NULL. For the conversion of non-constant numeric values, the following rules apply 1. When converting between integer types, if the value is a signed integer, it is sign extended to implicit infinite precision; otherwise it is zero extended. It is then truncated to fit in the result type's size. For example, if v == uint16(0x10F0), then uint32(int8(v)) == 0xFFFFFFF0. The conversion always yields a valid value; there is no indication of overflow. 2. When converting a floating-point number to an integer, the fraction is discarded (truncation towards zero). 3. When converting an integer or floating-point number to a floating-point type, or a complex number to another complex type, the result value is rounded to the precision specified by the destination type. For instance, the value of a variable x of type float32 may be stored using additional precision beyond that of an IEEE-754 32-bit number, but float32(x) represents the result of rounding x's value to 32-bit precision. Similarly, x + 0.1 may use more than 32 bits of precision, but float32(x + 0.1) does not. In all non-constant conversions involving floating-point or complex values, if the result type cannot represent the value the conversion succeeds but the result value is implementation-dependent. 1. Converting a signed or unsigned integer value to a string type yields a string containing the UTF-8 representation of the integer. Values outside the range of valid Unicode code points are converted to "\uFFFD". 2. Converting a blob to a string type yields a string whose successive bytes are the elements of the blob. 3. Converting a value of a string type to a blob yields a blob whose successive elements are the bytes of the string. 4. Converting a value of a bigint type to a string yields a string containing the decimal decimal representation of the integer. 5. Converting a value of a string type to a bigint yields a bigint value containing the integer represented by the string value. A prefix of “0x” or “0X” selects base 16; the “0” prefix selects base 8, and a “0b” or “0B” prefix selects base 2. Otherwise the value is interpreted in base 10. An error occurs if the string value is not in any valid format. 6. Converting a value of a rational type to a string yields a string containing the decimal decimal representation of the rational in the form "a/b" (even if b == 1). 7. Converting a value of a string type to a bigrat yields a bigrat value containing the rational represented by the string value. The string can be given as a fraction "a/b" or as a floating-point number optionally followed by an exponent. An error occurs if the string value is not in any valid format. 8. Converting a value of a duration type to a string returns a string representing the duration in the form "72h3m0.5s". Leading zero units are omitted. As a special case, durations less than one second format using a smaller unit (milli-, micro-, or nanoseconds) to ensure that the leading digit is non-zero. The zero duration formats as 0, with no unit. 9. Converting a string value to a duration yields a duration represented by the string. A duration string is a possibly signed sequence of decimal numbers, each with optional fraction and a unit suffix, such as "300ms", "-1.5h" or "2h45m". Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h". 10. Converting a time value to a string returns the time formatted using the format string When evaluating the operands of an expression or of function calls, operations are evaluated in lexical left-to-right order. For example, in the evaluation of the function calls and evaluation of c happen in the order h(), i(), j(), c. Floating-point operations within a single expression are evaluated according to the associativity of the operators. Explicit parentheses affect the evaluation by overriding the default associativity. In the expression x + (y + z) the addition y + z is performed before adding x. Statements control execution. The empty statement does nothing. Alter table statements modify existing tables. With the ADD clause it adds a new column to the table. The column must not exist. With the DROP clause it removes an existing column from a table. The column must exist and it must be not the only (last) column of the table. IOW, there cannot be a table with no columns. For example When adding a column to a table with existing data, the constraint clause of the ColumnDef cannot be used. Adding a constrained column to an empty table is fine. Begin transactions statements introduce a new transaction level. Every transaction level must be eventually balanced by exactly one of COMMIT or ROLLBACK statements. Note that when a transaction is roll-backed because of a statement failure then no explicit balancing of the respective BEGIN TRANSACTION is statement is required nor permitted. Failure to properly balance any opened transaction level may cause dead locks and/or lose of data updated in the uppermost opened but never properly closed transaction level. For example A database cannot be updated (mutated) outside of a transaction. Statements requiring a transaction A database is effectively read only outside of a transaction. Statements not requiring a transaction The commit statement closes the innermost transaction nesting level. If that's the outermost level then the updates to the DB made by the transaction are atomically made persistent. For example Create index statements create new indices. Index is a named projection of ordered values of a table column to the respective records. As a special case the id() of the record can be indexed. Index name must not be the same as any of the existing tables and it also cannot be the same as of any column name of the table the index is on. For example Now certain SELECT statements may use the indices to speed up joins and/or to speed up record set filtering when the WHERE clause is used; or the indices might be used to improve the performance when the ORDER BY clause is present. The UNIQUE modifier requires the indexed values tuple to be index-wise unique or have all values NULL. The optional IF NOT EXISTS clause makes the statement a no operation if the index already exists. A simple index consists of only one expression which must be either a column name or the built-in id(). A more complex and more general index is one that consists of more than one expression or its single expression does not qualify as a simple index. In this case the type of all expressions in the list must be one of the non blob-like types. Note: Blob-like types are blob, bigint, bigrat, time and duration. Create table statements create new tables. A column definition declares the column name and type. Table names and column names are case sensitive. Neither a table or an index of the same name may exist in the DB. For example The optional IF NOT EXISTS clause makes the statement a no operation if the table already exists. The optional constraint clause has two forms. The first one is found in many SQL dialects. This form prevents the data in column DepartmentName to be NULL. The second form allows an arbitrary boolean expression to be used to validate the column. If the value of the expression is true then the validation succeeded. If the value of the expression is false or NULL then the validation fails. If the value of the expression is not of type bool an error occurs. The optional DEFAULT clause is an expression which, if present, is substituted instead of a NULL value when the colum is assigned a value. Note that the constraint and/or default expressions may refer to other columns by name: When a table row is inserted by the INSERT INTO statement or when a table row is updated by the UPDATE statement, the order of operations is as follows: 1. The new values of the affected columns are set and the values of all the row columns become the named values which can be referred to in default expressions evaluated in step 2. 2. If any row column value is NULL and the DEFAULT clause is present in the column's definition, the default expression is evaluated and its value is set as the respective column value. 3. The values, potentially updated, of row columns become the named values which can be referred to in constraint expressions evaluated during step 4. 4. All row columns which definition has the constraint clause present will have that constraint checked. If any constraint violation is detected, the overall operation fails and no changes to the table are made. Delete from statements remove rows from a table, which must exist. For example If the WHERE clause is not present then all rows are removed and the statement is equivalent to the TRUNCATE TABLE statement. Drop index statements remove indices from the DB. The index must exist. For example The optional IF EXISTS clause makes the statement a no operation if the index does not exist. Drop table statements remove tables from the DB. The table must exist. For example The optional IF EXISTS clause makes the statement a no operation if the table does not exist. Insert into statements insert new rows into tables. New rows come from literal data, if using the VALUES clause, or are a result of select statement. In the later case the select statement is fully evaluated before the insertion of any rows is performed, allowing to insert values calculated from the same table rows are to be inserted into. If the ColumnNameList part is omitted then the number of values inserted in the row must be the same as are columns in the table. If the ColumnNameList part is present then the number of values per row must be same as the same number of column names. All other columns of the record are set to NULL. The type of the value assigned to a column must be the same as is the column's type or the value must be NULL. For example If any of the columns of the table were defined using the optional constraints clause or the optional defaults clause then those are processed on a per row basis. The details are discussed in the "Constraints and defaults" chapter below the CREATE TABLE statement documentation. Explain statement produces a recordset consisting of lines of text which describe the execution plan of a statement, if any. For example, the QL tool treats the explain statement specially and outputs the joined lines: The explanation may aid in uderstanding how a statement/query would be executed and if indices are used as expected - or which indices may possibly improve the statement performance. The create index statements above were directly copy/pasted in the terminal from the suggestions provided by the filter recordset pipeline part returned by the explain statement. If the statement has nothing special in its plan, the result is the original statement. To get an explanation of the select statement of the IN predicate, use the EXPLAIN statement with that particular select statement. The rollback statement closes the innermost transaction nesting level discarding any updates to the DB made by it. If that's the outermost level then the effects on the DB are as if the transaction never happened. For example The (temporary) record set from the last statement is returned and can be processed by the client. In this case the rollback is the same as 'DROP TABLE tmp;' but it can be a more complex operation. Select from statements produce recordsets. The optional DISTINCT modifier ensures all rows in the result recordset are unique. Either all of the resulting fields are returned ('*') or only those named in FieldList. RecordSetList is a list of table names or parenthesized select statements, optionally (re)named using the AS clause. The result can be filtered using a WhereClause and orderd by the OrderBy clause. For example If Recordset is a nested, parenthesized SelectStmt then it must be given a name using the AS clause if its field are to be accessible in expressions. A field is an named expression. Identifiers, not used as a type in conversion or a function name in the Call clause, denote names of (other) fields, values of which should be used in the expression. The expression can be named using the AS clause. If the AS clause is not present and the expression consists solely of a field name, then that field name is used as the name of the resulting field. Otherwise the field is unnamed. For example The SELECT statement can optionally enumerate the desired/resulting fields in a list. No two identical field names can appear in the list. When more than one record set is used in the FROM clause record set list, the result record set field names are rewritten to be qualified using the record set names. If a particular record set doesn't have a name, its respective fields became unnamed. The optional JOIN clause, for example is mostly equal to except that the rows from a which, when they appear in the cross join, never made expr to evaluate to true, are combined with a virtual row from b, containing all nulls, and added to the result set. For the RIGHT JOIN variant the discussed rules are used for rows from b not satisfying expr == true and the virtual, all-null row "comes" from a. The FULL JOIN adds the respective rows which would be otherwise provided by the separate executions of the LEFT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN variants. For more thorough OUTER JOIN discussion please see the Wikipedia article at [10]. Resultins rows of a SELECT statement can be optionally ordered by the ORDER BY clause. Collating proceeds by considering the expressions in the expression list left to right until a collating order is determined. Any possibly remaining expressions are not evaluated. All of the expression values must yield an ordered type or NULL. Ordered types are defined in "Comparison operators". Collating of elements having a NULL value is different compared to what the comparison operators yield in expression evaluation (NULL result instead of a boolean value). Below, T denotes a non NULL value of any QL type. NULL collates before any non NULL value (is considered smaller than T). Two NULLs have no collating order (are considered equal). The WHERE clause restricts records considered by some statements, like SELECT FROM, DELETE FROM, or UPDATE. It is an error if the expression evaluates to a non null value of non bool type. Another form of the WHERE clause is an existence predicate of a parenthesized select statement. The EXISTS form evaluates to true if the parenthesized SELECT statement produces a non empty record set. The NOT EXISTS form evaluates to true if the parenthesized SELECT statement produces an empty record set. The parenthesized SELECT statement is evaluated only once (TODO issue #159). The GROUP BY clause is used to project rows having common values into a smaller set of rows. For example Using the GROUP BY without any aggregate functions in the selected fields is in certain cases equal to using the DISTINCT modifier. The last two examples above produce the same resultsets. The optional OFFSET clause allows to ignore first N records. For example The above will produce only rows 11, 12, ... of the record set, if they exist. The value of the expression must a non negative integer, but not bigint or duration. The optional LIMIT clause allows to ignore all but first N records. For example The above will return at most the first 10 records of the record set. The value of the expression must a non negative integer, but not bigint or duration. The LIMIT and OFFSET clauses can be combined. For example Considering table t has, say 10 records, the above will produce only records 4 - 8. After returning record #8, no more result rows/records are computed. 1. The FROM clause is evaluated, producing a Cartesian product of its source record sets (tables or nested SELECT statements). 2. If present, the JOIN cluase is evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation and the recordset specified by the JOIN clause. (... JOIN Recordset ON ...) 3. If present, the WHERE clause is evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation. 4. If present, the GROUP BY clause is evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation(s). 5. The SELECT field expressions are evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation(s). 6. If present, the DISTINCT modifier is evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation(s). 7. If present, the ORDER BY clause is evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation(s). 8. If present, the OFFSET clause is evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation(s). The offset expression is evaluated once for the first record produced by the previous evaluations. 9. If present, the LIMIT clause is evaluated on the result set of the previous evaluation(s). The limit expression is evaluated once for the first record produced by the previous evaluations. Truncate table statements remove all records from a table. The table must exist. For example Update statements change values of fields in rows of a table. For example Note: The SET clause is optional. If any of the columns of the table were defined using the optional constraints clause or the optional defaults clause then those are processed on a per row basis. The details are discussed in the "Constraints and defaults" chapter below the CREATE TABLE statement documentation. To allow to query for DB meta data, there exist specially named tables, some of them being virtual. Note: Virtual system tables may have fake table-wise unique but meaningless and unstable record IDs. Do not apply the built-in id() to any system table. The table __Table lists all tables in the DB. The schema is The Schema column returns the statement to (re)create table Name. This table is virtual. The table __Colum lists all columns of all tables in the DB. The schema is The Ordinal column defines the 1-based index of the column in the record. This table is virtual. The table __Colum2 lists all columns of all tables in the DB which have the constraint NOT NULL or which have a constraint expression defined or which have a default expression defined. The schema is It's possible to obtain a consolidated recordset for all properties of all DB columns using The Name column is the column name in TableName. The table __Index lists all indices in the DB. The schema is The IsUnique columns reflects if the index was created using the optional UNIQUE clause. This table is virtual. Built-in functions are predeclared. The built-in aggregate function avg returns the average of values of an expression. Avg ignores NULL values, but returns NULL if all values of a column are NULL or if avg is applied to an empty record set. The column values must be of a numeric type. The built-in function contains returns true if substr is within s. If any argument to contains is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in aggregate function count returns how many times an expression has a non NULL values or the number of rows in a record set. Note: count() returns 0 for an empty record set. For example Date returns the time corresponding to in the appropriate zone for that time in the given location. The month, day, hour, min, sec, and nsec values may be outside their usual ranges and will be normalized during the conversion. For example, October 32 converts to November 1. A daylight savings time transition skips or repeats times. For example, in the United States, March 13, 2011 2:15am never occurred, while November 6, 2011 1:15am occurred twice. In such cases, the choice of time zone, and therefore the time, is not well-defined. Date returns a time that is correct in one of the two zones involved in the transition, but it does not guarantee which. A location maps time instants to the zone in use at that time. Typically, the location represents the collection of time offsets in use in a geographical area, such as "CEST" and "CET" for central Europe. "local" represents the system's local time zone. "UTC" represents Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). The month specifies a month of the year (January = 1, ...). If any argument to date is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function day returns the day of the month specified by t. If the argument to day is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function formatTime returns a textual representation of the time value formatted according to layout, which defines the format by showing how the reference time, would be displayed if it were the value; it serves as an example of the desired output. The same display rules will then be applied to the time value. If any argument to formatTime is NULL the result is NULL. NOTE: The string value of the time zone, like "CET" or "ACDT", is dependent on the time zone of the machine the function is run on. For example, if the t value is in "CET", but the machine is in "ACDT", instead of "CET" the result is "+0100". This is the same what Go (time.Time).String() returns and in fact formatTime directly calls t.String(). returns on a machine in the CET time zone, but may return on a machine in the ACDT zone. The time value is in both cases the same so its ordering and comparing is correct. Only the display value can differ. The built-in functions formatFloat and formatInt format numbers to strings using go's number format functions in the `strconv` package. For all three functions, only the first argument is mandatory. The default values of the rest are shown in the examples. If the first argument is NULL, the result is NULL. returns returns returns Unlike the `strconv` equivalent, the formatInt function handles all integer types, both signed and unsigned. The built-in function hasPrefix tests whether the string s begins with prefix. If any argument to hasPrefix is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function hasSuffix tests whether the string s ends with suffix. If any argument to hasSuffix is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function hour returns the hour within the day specified by t, in the range [0, 23]. If the argument to hour is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function hours returns the duration as a floating point number of hours. If the argument to hours is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function id takes zero or one arguments. If no argument is provided, id() returns a table-unique automatically assigned numeric identifier of type int. Ids of deleted records are not reused unless the DB becomes completely empty (has no tables). For example If id() without arguments is called for a row which is not a table record then the result value is NULL. For example If id() has one argument it must be a table name of a table in a cross join. For example The built-in function len takes a string argument and returns the lentgh of the string in bytes. The expression len(s) is constant if s is a string constant. If the argument to len is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in aggregate function max returns the largest value of an expression in a record set. Max ignores NULL values, but returns NULL if all values of a column are NULL or if max is applied to an empty record set. The expression values must be of an ordered type. For example The built-in aggregate function min returns the smallest value of an expression in a record set. Min ignores NULL values, but returns NULL if all values of a column are NULL or if min is applied to an empty record set. For example The column values must be of an ordered type. The built-in function minute returns the minute offset within the hour specified by t, in the range [0, 59]. If the argument to minute is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function minutes returns the duration as a floating point number of minutes. If the argument to minutes is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function month returns the month of the year specified by t (January = 1, ...). If the argument to month is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function nanosecond returns the nanosecond offset within the second specified by t, in the range [0, 999999999]. If the argument to nanosecond is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function nanoseconds returns the duration as an integer nanosecond count. If the argument to nanoseconds is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function now returns the current local time. The built-in function parseTime parses a formatted string and returns the time value it represents. The layout defines the format by showing how the reference time, would be interpreted if it were the value; it serves as an example of the input format. The same interpretation will then be made to the input string. Elements omitted from the value are assumed to be zero or, when zero is impossible, one, so parsing "3:04pm" returns the time corresponding to Jan 1, year 0, 15:04:00 UTC (note that because the year is 0, this time is before the zero Time). Years must be in the range 0000..9999. The day of the week is checked for syntax but it is otherwise ignored. In the absence of a time zone indicator, parseTime returns a time in UTC. When parsing a time with a zone offset like -0700, if the offset corresponds to a time zone used by the current location, then parseTime uses that location and zone in the returned time. Otherwise it records the time as being in a fabricated location with time fixed at the given zone offset. When parsing a time with a zone abbreviation like MST, if the zone abbreviation has a defined offset in the current location, then that offset is used. The zone abbreviation "UTC" is recognized as UTC regardless of location. If the zone abbreviation is unknown, Parse records the time as being in a fabricated location with the given zone abbreviation and a zero offset. This choice means that such a time can be parses and reformatted with the same layout losslessly, but the exact instant used in the representation will differ by the actual zone offset. To avoid such problems, prefer time layouts that use a numeric zone offset. If any argument to parseTime is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function second returns the second offset within the minute specified by t, in the range [0, 59]. If the argument to second is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function seconds returns the duration as a floating point number of seconds. If the argument to seconds is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function since returns the time elapsed since t. It is shorthand for now()-t. If the argument to since is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in aggregate function sum returns the sum of values of an expression for all rows of a record set. Sum ignores NULL values, but returns NULL if all values of a column are NULL or if sum is applied to an empty record set. The column values must be of a numeric type. The built-in function timeIn returns t with the location information set to loc. For discussion of the loc argument please see date(). If any argument to timeIn is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function weekday returns the day of the week specified by t. Sunday == 0, Monday == 1, ... If the argument to weekday is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function year returns the year in which t occurs. If the argument to year is NULL the result is NULL. The built-in function yearDay returns the day of the year specified by t, in the range [1,365] for non-leap years, and [1,366] in leap years. If the argument to yearDay is NULL the result is NULL. Three functions assemble and disassemble complex numbers. The built-in function complex constructs a complex value from a floating-point real and imaginary part, while real and imag extract the real and imaginary parts of a complex value. The type of the arguments and return value correspond. For complex, the two arguments must be of the same floating-point type and the return type is the complex type with the corresponding floating-point constituents: complex64 for float32, complex128 for float64. The real and imag functions together form the inverse, so for a complex value z, z == complex(real(z), imag(z)). If the operands of these functions are all constants, the return value is a constant. If any argument to any of complex, real, imag functions is NULL the result is NULL. For the numeric types, the following sizes are guaranteed Portions of this specification page are modifications based on work[2] created and shared by Google[3] and used according to terms described in the Creative Commons 3.0 Attribution License[4].

Links from the above documentation This section is not part of the specification. WARNING: The implementation of indices is new and it surely needs more time to become mature. Indices are used currently used only by the WHERE clause. The following expression patterns of 'WHERE expression' are recognized and trigger index use. The relOp is one of the relation operators <, <=, ==, >=, >. For the equality operator both operands must be of comparable types. For all other operators both operands must be of ordered types. The constant expression is a compile time constant expression. Some constant folding is still a TODO. Parameter is a QL parameter ($1 etc.). Consider tables t and u, both with an indexed field f. The WHERE expression doesn't comply with the above simple detected cases. However, such query is now automatically rewritten to which will use both of the indices. The impact of using the indices can be substantial (cf. BenchmarkCrossJoin*) if the resulting rows have low "selectivity", ie. only few rows from both tables are selected by the respective WHERE filtering. Note: Existing QL DBs can be used and indices can be added to them. However, once any indices are present in the DB, the old QL versions cannot work with such DB anymore. Running a benchmark with -v (-test.v) outputs information about the scale used to report records/s and a brief description of the benchmark. For example Running the full suite of benchmarks takes a lot of time. Use the -timeout flag to avoid them being killed after the default time limit (10 minutes).

github.com/wanghl21/pbc

Package pbc provides structures for building pairing-based cryptosystems. It is a wrapper around the Pairing-Based Cryptography (PBC) Library authored by Ben Lynn (https://crypto.stanford.edu/pbc/). This wrapper provides access to all PBC functions. It supports generation of various types of elliptic curves and pairings, element initialization, I/O, and arithmetic. These features can be used to quickly build pairing-based or conventional cryptosystems. The PBC library is designed to be extremely fast. Internally, it uses GMP for arbitrary-precision arithmetic. It also includes a wide variety of optimizations that make pairing-based cryptography highly efficient. To improve performance, PBC does not perform type checking to ensure that operations actually make sense. The Go wrapper provides the ability to add compatibility checks to most operations, or to use unchecked elements to maximize performance. Since this library provides low-level access to pairing primitives, it is very easy to accidentally construct insecure systems. This library is intended to be used by cryptographers or to implement well-analyzed cryptosystems. Cryptographic pairings are defined over three mathematical groups: G1, G2, and GT, where each group is typically of the same order r. Additionally, a bilinear map e maps a pair of elements — one from G1 and another from G2 — to an element in GT. This map e has the following additional property: If G1 == G2, then a pairing is said to be symmetric. Otherwise, it is asymmetric. Pairings can be used to construct a variety of efficient cryptosystems. The PBC library currently supports 5 different types of pairings, each with configurable parameters. These types are designated alphabetically, roughly in chronological order of introduction. Type A, D, E, F, and G pairings are implemented in the library. Each type has different time and space requirements. For more information about the types, see the documentation for the corresponding generator calls, or the PBC manual page at https://crypto.stanford.edu/pbc/manual/ch05s01.html. This package must be compiled using cgo. It also requires the installation of GMP and PBC. During the build process, this package will attempt to include <gmp.h> and <pbc/pbc.h>, and then dynamically link to GMP and PBC. Most systems include a package for GMP. To install GMP in Debian / Ubuntu: For an RPM installation with YUM: For installation with Fink (http://www.finkproject.org/) on Mac OS X: For more information or to compile from source, visit https://gmplib.org/ To install the PBC library, download the appropriate files for your system from https://crypto.stanford.edu/pbc/download.html. PBC has three dependencies: the gcc compiler, flex (http://flex.sourceforge.net/), and bison (https://www.gnu.org/software/bison/). See the respective sites for installation instructions. Most distributions include packages for these libraries. For example, in Debian / Ubuntu: The PBC source can be compiled and installed using the usual GNU Build System: After installing, you may need to rebuild the search path for libraries: It is possible to install the package on Windows through the use of MinGW and MSYS. MSYS is required for installing PBC, while GMP can be installed through a package. Based on your MinGW installation, you may need to add "-I/usr/local/include" to CPPFLAGS and "-L/usr/local/lib" to LDFLAGS when building PBC. Likewise, you may need to add these options to CGO_CPPFLAGS and CGO_LDFLAGS when installing this package. This package is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. For additional details, see the COPYING and COPYING.LESSER files. This example generates a pairing and some random group elements, then applies the pairing operation. This example computes and verifies a Boneh-Lynn-Shacham signature in a simulated conversation between Alice and Bob.

gopkg.in/jessevdk/go-flags.v1

Package flags provides an extensive command line option parser. The flags package is similar in functionality to the go built-in flag package but provides more options and uses reflection to provide a convenient and succinct way of specifying command line options. The following features are supported in go-flags: Additional features specific to Windows: The flags package uses structs, reflection and struct field tags to allow users to specify command line options. This results in very simple and concise specification of your application options. For example: This specifies one option with a short name -v and a long name --verbose. When either -v or --verbose is found on the command line, a 'true' value will be appended to the Verbose field. e.g. when specifying -vvv, the resulting value of Verbose will be {[true, true, true]}. Slice options work exactly the same as primitive type options, except that whenever the option is encountered, a value is appended to the slice. Map options from string to primitive type are also supported. On the command line, you specify the value for such an option as key:value. For example Then, the AuthorInfo map can be filled with something like -a name:Jesse -a "surname:van den Kieboom". Finally, for full control over the conversion between command line argument values and options, user defined types can choose to implement the Marshaler and Unmarshaler interfaces. The following is a list of tags for struct fields supported by go-flags: Either the `short:` tag or the `long:` must be specified to make the field eligible as an option. Option groups are a simple way to semantically separate your options. All options in a particular group are shown together in the help under the name of the group. Namespaces can be used to specify option long names more precisely and emphasize the options affiliation to their group. There are currently three ways to specify option groups. The flags package also has basic support for commands. Commands are often used in monolithic applications that support various commands or actions. Take git for example, all of the add, commit, checkout, etc. are called commands. Using commands you can easily separate multiple functions of your application. There are currently two ways to specify a command. The most common, idiomatic way to implement commands is to define a global parser instance and implement each command in a separate file. These command files should define a go init function which calls AddCommand on the global parser. When parsing ends and there is an active command and that command implements the Commander interface, then its Execute method will be run with the remaining command line arguments. Command structs can have options which become valid to parse after the command has been specified on the command line, in addition to the options of all the parent commands. I.e. considering a -v flag on the parser and an add command, the following are equivalent: However, if the -v flag is defined on the add command, then the first of the two examples above would fail since the -v flag is not defined before the add command. go-flags has builtin support to provide bash completion of flags, commands and argument values. To use completion, the binary which uses go-flags can be invoked in a special environment to list completion of the current command line argument. It should be noted that this `executes` your application, and it is up to the user to make sure there are no negative side effects (for example from init functions). Setting the environment variable `GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION=1` enables completion by replacing the argument parsing routine with the completion routine which outputs completions for the passed arguments. The basic invocation to complete a set of arguments is therefore: where `completion-example` is the binary, `arg1` and `arg2` are the current arguments, and `arg3` (the last argument) is the argument to be completed. If the GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set to "verbose", then descriptions of possible completion items will also be shown, if there are more than 1 completion items. To use this with bash completion, a simple file can be written which calls the binary which supports go-flags completion: Completion requires the parser option PassDoubleDash and is therefore enforced if the environment variable GO_FLAGS_COMPLETION is set. Customized completion for argument values is supported by implementing the flags.Completer interface for the argument value type. An example of a type which does so is the flags.Filename type, an alias of string allowing simple filename completion. A slice or array argument value whose element type implements flags.Completer will also be completed.

Package flags provides an extensive command line option parser. The flags package is similar in functionality to the go built-in flag package but provides more options and uses reflection to provide a convenient and succinct way of specifying command line options. The following features are supported in go-flags: Additional features specific to Windows: The flags package uses structs, reflection and struct field tags to allow users to specify command line options. This results in very simple and concise specification of your application options. For example: This specifies one option with a short name -v and a long name --verbose. When either -v or --verbose is found on the command line, a 'true' value will be appended to the Verbose field. e.g. when specifying -vvv, the resulting value of Verbose will be {[true, true, true]}. Slice options work exactly the same as primitive type options, except that whenever the option is encountered, a value is appended to the slice. Map options from string to primitive type are also supported. On the command line, you specify the value for such an option as key:value. For example Then, the AuthorInfo map can be filled with something like -a name:Jesse -a "surname:van den Kieboom". Finally, for full control over the conversion between command line argument values and options, user defined types can choose to implement the Marshaler and Unmarshaler interfaces. The following is a list of tags for struct fields supported by go-flags: Either the `short:` tag or the `long:` must be specified to make the field eligible as an option. Option groups are a simple way to semantically separate your options. All options in a particular group are shown together in the help under the name of the group. Namespaces can be used to specify option long names more precisely and emphasize the options affiliation to their group. There are currently three ways to specify option groups. The flags package also has basic support for commands. Commands are often used in monolithic applications that support various commands or actions. Take git for example, all of the add, commit, checkout, etc. are called commands. Using commands you can easily separate multiple functions of your application. There are currently two ways to specify a command. The most common, idiomatic way to implement commands is to define a global parser instance and implement each command in a separate file. These command files should define a go init function which calls AddCommand on the global parser. When parsing ends and there is an active command and that command implements the Commander interface, then its Execute method will be run with the remaining command line arguments. Command structs can have options which become valid to parse after the command has been specified on the command line, in addition to the options of all the parent commands.
