CLI Arguments

Package goworker is a Resque-compatible, Go-based background worker. It allows you to push jobs into a queue using an expressive language like Ruby while harnessing the efficiency and concurrency of Go to minimize job latency and cost. goworker workers can run alongside Ruby Resque clients so that you can keep all but your most resource-intensive jobs in Ruby. To create a worker, write a function matching the signature and register it using Here is a simple worker that prints its arguments: To create workers that share a database pool or other resources, use a closure to share variables. goworker worker functions receive the queue they are serving and a slice of interfaces. To use them as parameters to other functions, use Go type assertions to convert them into usable types. For testing, it is helpful to use the redis-cli program to insert jobs onto the Redis queue: will insert 100 jobs for the MyClass worker onto the myqueue queue. It is equivalent to: After building your workers, you will have an executable that you can run which will automatically poll a Redis server and call your workers as jobs arrive. There are several flags which control the operation of the goworker client. -queues="comma,delimited,queues" — This is the only required flag. The recommended practice is to separate your Resque workers from your goworkers with different queues. Otherwise, Resque worker classes that have no goworker analog will cause the goworker process to fail the jobs. Because of this, there is no default queue, nor is there a way to select all queues (à la Resque's * queue). Queues are processed in the order they are specififed. If you have multiple queues you can assign them weights. A queue with a weight of 2 will be checked twice as often as a queue with a weight of 1: -queues='high=2,low=1'. -interval=5.0 — Specifies the wait period between polling if no job was in the queue the last time one was requested. -concurrency=25 — Specifies the number of concurrently executing workers. This number can be as low as 1 or rather comfortably as high as 100,000, and should be tuned to your workflow and the availability of outside resources. -connections=2 — Specifies the maximum number of Redis connections that goworker will consume between the poller and all workers. There is not much performance gain over two and a slight penalty when using only one. This is configurable in case you need to keep connection counts low for cloud Redis providers who limit plans on maxclients. -uri=redis://localhost:6379/ — Specifies the URI of the Redis database from which goworker polls for jobs. Accepts URIs of the format redis://user:pass@host:port/db or unix:///path/to/redis.sock. The flag may also be set by the environment variable $($REDIS_PROVIDER) or $REDIS_URL. E.g. set $REDIS_PROVIDER to REDISTOGO_URL on Heroku to let the Redis To Go add-on configure the Redis database. -namespace=resque: — Specifies the namespace from which goworker retrieves jobs and stores stats on workers. -exit-on-complete=false — Exits goworker when there are no jobs left in the queue. This is helpful in conjunction with the time command to benchmark different configurations. -use-number=false — Uses json.Number when decoding numbers in the job payloads. This will avoid issues that occur when goworker and the json package decode large numbers as floats, which then get encoded in scientific notation, losing pecision. This will default to true soon. You can also configure your own flags for use within your workers. Be sure to set them before calling goworker.Main(). It is okay to call flags.Parse() before calling goworker.Main() if you need to do additional processing on your flags. To stop goworker, send a QUIT, TERM, or INT signal to the process. This will immediately stop job polling. There can be up to $CONCURRENCY jobs currently running, which will continue to run until they are finished. Like Resque, goworker makes no guarantees about the safety of jobs in the event of process shutdown. Workers must be both idempotent and tolerant to loss of the job in the event of failure. If the process is killed with a KILL or by a system failure, there may be one job that is currently in the poller's buffer that will be lost without any representation in either the queue or the worker variable. If you are running Goworker on a system like Heroku, which sends a TERM to signal a process that it needs to stop, ten seconds later sends a KILL to force the process to stop, your jobs must finish within 10 seconds or they may be lost. Jobs will be recoverable from the Redis database under as a JSON object with keys queue, run_at, and payload, but the process is manual. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the job in Redis under the worker key has not finished, if the process is killed before goworker can flush the update to Redis.

Package engineapi provides libraries to implement client and server components compatible with the Docker engine. The client package in github.com/docker/engine-api/client implements all necessary requests to implement the official Docker engine cli. Create a new client, then use it to send and receive messages to the Docker engine API: Other programs, like Docker Machine, can set the default Docker engine environment for you. There is a shortcut to use its variables to configure the client: All request arguments are defined as typed structures in the types package. For instance, this is how to get all containers running in the host:

Package cmds helps building both standalone and client-server applications. The basic building blocks are requests, commands, emitters and responses. A command consists of a description of the parameters and a function. The function is passed the request as well as an emitter as arguments. It does operations on the inputs and sends the results to the user by emitting them. There are a number of emitters in this package and subpackages, but the user is free to create their own. A command is a struct containing the commands help text, a description of the arguments and options, the command's processing function and a type to let the caller know what type will be emitted. Optionally one of the functions PostRun and Encoder may be defined that consumes the function's emitted values and generates a visual representation for e.g. the terminal. Encoders work on a value-by-value basis, while PostRun operates on the value stream. An emitter has the Emit method, that takes the command's function's output as an argument and passes it to the user. The command's function does not know what kind of emitter it works with, so the same function may run locally or on a server, using an rpc interface. Emitters can also send errors using the SetError method. The user-facing emitter usually is the cli emitter. Values emitter here will be printed to the terminal using either the Encoders or the PostRun function. A response is a value that the user can read emitted values from. Responses have a method Next() that returns the next emitted value and an error value. If the last element has been received, the returned error value is io.EOF. If the application code has sent an error using SetError, the error ErrRcvdError is returned on next, indicating that the caller should call Error(). Depending on the reponse type, other errors may also occur. Pipes are pairs (emitter, response), such that a value emitted on the emitter can be received in the response value. Most builtin emitters are "pipe" emitters. The most prominent examples are the channel pipe and the http pipe. The channel pipe is backed by a channel. The only error value returned by the response is io.EOF, which happens when the channel is closed. The http pipe is backed by an http connection. The response can also return other errors, e.g. if there are errors on the network.

go-enumerator is a tool designed to be called by go:generate for generating enum-like code from constants. Be default, go-enumerator will look for a type definition immediately following the go:generate statement from which it was called, and will generate methods for that type. For example, given code similar to what is shown below go-enumerator will generate implementations for the following methods Hopefully, the default behavior will serve your needs, but if not it can be changed by supplying command-line arguments to the program. For help with the cli, run with the --help argument. Enjoy 😀

It is equivalent to: After building your workers, you will have an executable that you can run which will automatically poll a Redis server and call your workers as jobs arrive. There are several flags which control the operation of the goworker client. -queues="comma,delimited,queues" — This is the only required flag. The recommended practice is to separate your Resque workers from your goworkers with different queues. Otherwise, Resque worker classes that have no goworker analog will cause the goworker process to fail the jobs. Because of this, there is no default queue, nor is there a way to select all queues (à la Resque's * queue). Queues are processed in the order they are specififed. If you have multiple queues you can assign them weights. A queue with a weight of 2 will be checked twice as often as a queue with a weight of 1: -queues='high=2,low=1'. -interval=5.0 — Specifies the wait period between polling if no job was in the queue the last time one was requested. -concurrency=25 — Specifies the number of concurrently executing workers. This number can be as low as 1 or rather comfortably as high as 100,000, and should be tuned to your workflow and the availability of outside resources. -connections=2 — Specifies the maximum number of Redis connections that goworker will consume between the poller and all workers. There is not much performance gain over two and a slight penalty when using only one. This is configurable in case you need to keep connection counts low for cloud Redis providers who limit plans on maxclients. -uri=redis://localhost:6379/ — Specifies the URI of the Redis database from which goworker polls for jobs. Accepts URIs of the format redis://user:pass@host:port/db or unix:///path/to/redis.sock. The flag may also be set by the environment variable $($REDIS_PROVIDER) or $REDIS_URL. E.g. set $REDIS_PROVIDER to REDISTOGO_URL on Heroku to let the Redis To Go add-on configure the Redis database. -namespace=resque: — Specifies the namespace from which goworker retrieves jobs and stores stats on workers. -exit-on-complete=false — Exits goworker when there are no jobs left in the queue. This is helpful in conjunction with the time command to benchmark different configurations. -use-number=false — Uses json.Number when decoding numbers in the job payloads. This will avoid issues that occur when goworker and the json package decode large numbers as floats, which then get encoded in scientific notation, losing pecision. This will default to true soon. You can also configure your own flags for use within your workers. Be sure to set them before calling goworker.Main(). It is okay to call flags.Parse() before calling goworker.Main() if you need to do additional processing on your flags. To stop goworker, send a QUIT, TERM, or INT signal to the process. This will immediately stop job polling. There can be up to $CONCURRENCY jobs currently running, which will continue to run until they are finished. Like Resque, goworker makes no guarantees about the safety of jobs in the event of process shutdown. Workers must be both idempotent and tolerant to loss of the job in the event of failure. If the process is killed with a KILL or by a system failure, there may be one job that is currently in the poller's buffer that will be lost without any representation in either the queue or the worker variable. If you are running Goworker on a system like Heroku, which sends a TERM to signal a process that it needs to stop, ten seconds later sends a KILL to force the process to stop, your jobs must finish within 10 seconds or they may be lost. Jobs will be recoverable from the Redis database under as a JSON object with keys queue, run_at, and payload, but the process is manual. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the job in Redis under the worker key has not finished, if the process is killed before goworker can flush the update to Redis.

Package engineapi provides libraries to implement client and server components compatible with the Docker engine. The client package in github.com/docker/engine-api/client implements all necessary requests to implement the official Docker engine cli. Create a new client, then use it to send and receive messages to the Docker engine API: Other programs, like Docker Machine, can set the default Docker engine environment for you. There is a shortcut to use its variables to configure the client: All request arguments are defined as typed structures in the types package. For instance, this is how to get all containers running in the host:

Package cli provides a framework to build command line applications in Go with most of the burden of arguments parsing and validation placed on the framework instead of the user. To create a new application, initialize an app with cli.App. Specify a name and a brief description for the application: To attach code to execute when the app is launched, assign a function to the Action field: To assign a version to the application, use Version method and specify the flags that will be used to invoke the version command: Finally, in the main func, call Run passing in the arguments for parsing: To add one or more command line options (also known as flags), use one of the short-form StringOpt, StringsOpt, IntOpt, IntsOpt, or BoolOpt methods on App (or Cmd if adding flags to a command or subcommand). For example, to add a boolean flag to the cp command that specifies recursive mode, use the following: The first argument is a space separated list of names for the option without the dashes. Generally, both short and long forms are specified, but this is not mandatory. Additional names (aliases) can be provide if desired, but these are not shown in the auto-generated help. The second argument is the default value for the option if it is not supplied by the user. And, the third argument is the description to be shown in help messages. There is also a second set of methods on App called String, Strings, Int, Ints, and Bool, which accept a long-form struct of the type: cli.StringOpt, cli.StringsOpt, cli.IntOpt, cli.IntsOpt, cli.BoolOpt. The struct describes the option and allows the use of additional features not available in the short-form methods described above: Two features, EnvVar and SetByUser, can be defined in the long-form struct method. EnvVar is a space separated list of environment variables used to initialize the option if a value is not provided by the user. When help messages are shown, the value of any environment variables will be displayed. SetByUser is a pointer to a boolean variable that is set to true if the user specified the value on the command line. This can be useful to determine if the value of the option was explicitly set by the user or set via the default value. The result of both short- and long-forms is a pointer to a value, which will be populated after the command line arguments are parsed. You can only access the values stored in the pointers in the Action func, which is invoked after argument parsing has been completed. This precludes using the value of one option as the default value of another. On the command line, the following syntaxes are supported when specifying options. Boolean options: String and int options: Slice options (StringsOpt, IntsOpt) where option is repeated to accumulate values in a slice: To add one or more command line arguments (not prefixed by dashes), use one of the short-form StringArg, StringsArg, IntArg, IntsArg, or BoolArg methods on App (or Cmd if adding arguments to a command or subcommand). For example, to add two string arguments to our cp command, use the following calls: The first argument is the name of the argument as displayed in help messages. Argument names must be specified as all uppercase. The second argument is the default value for the argument if it is not supplied. And the third, argument is the description to be shown in help messages. There is also a second set of methods on App called String, Strings, Int, Ints, and Bool, which accept a long-form struct of the type: cli.StringArg, cli.StringsArg, cli.IntArg, cli.IntsArg, cli.BoolArg. The struct describes the arguments and allows the use of additional features not available in the short-form methods described above: Two features, EnvVar and SetByUser, can be defined in the long-form struct method. EnvVar is a space separated list of environment variables used to initialize the argument if a value is not provided by the user. When help messages are shown, the value of any environment variables will be displayed. SetByUser is a pointer to a boolean variable that is set to true if the user specified the value on the command line. This can be useful to determine if the value of the argument was explicitly set by the user or set via the default value. The result of both short- and long-forms is a pointer to a value which will be populated after the command line arguments are parsed. You can only access the values stored in the pointers in the Action func, which is invoked after argument parsing has been completed. This precludes using the value of one argument as the default value of another. The -- operator marks the end of command line options. Everything that follows will be treated as an argument, even if starts with a dash. For example, the standard POSIX touch command, which takes a filename as an argument (and possibly other options that we'll ignore here), could be defined as: If we try to create a file named "-f" via our touch command: It will fail because the -f will be parsed as an option, not as an argument. The fix is to insert -- after all flags have been specified, so the remaining arguments are parsed as arguments instead of options as follows: This ensures the -f is parsed as an argument instead of a flag named f. This package supports nesting of commands and subcommands. Declare a top-level command by calling the Command func on the top-level App struct. For example, the following creates an application called docker that will have one command called run: The first argument is the name of the command the user will specify on the command line to invoke this command. The second argument is the description of the command shown in help messages. And, the last argument is a CmdInitializer, which is a function that receives a pointer to a Cmd struct representing the command. Within this function, define the options and arguments for the command by calling the same methods as you would with top-level App struct (BoolOpt, StringArg, ...). To execute code when the command is invoked, assign a function to the Action field of the Cmd struct. Within that function, you can safely refer to the options and arguments as command line parsing will be completed at the time the function is invoked: Optionally, to provide a more extensive description of the command, assign a string to LongDesc, which is displayed when a user invokes --help. A LongDesc can be provided for Cmds as well as the top-level App: Subcommands can be added by calling Command on the Cmd struct. They can by defined to any depth if needed: Command and subcommand aliases are also supported. To define one or more aliases, specify a space-separated list of strings to the first argument of Command: With the command structure defined above, users can invoke the app in a variety of ways: As a convenience, to assign an Action to a func with no arguments, use ActionCommand when defining the Command. For example, the following two statements are equivalent: Please note that options, arguments, specs, and long descriptions cannot be provided when using ActionCommand. This is intended for very simple command invocations that take no arguments. Finally, as a side-note, it may seem a bit weird that this package uses a function to initialize a command instead of simply returning a command struct. The motivation behind this API decision is scoping: as with the standard flag package, adding an option or an argument returns a pointer to a value which will be populated when the app is run. Since you'll want to store these pointers in variables, and to avoid having dozens of them in the same scope (the main func for example or as global variables), this API was specifically tailored to take a func parameter (called CmdInitializer), which accepts the command struct. With this design, the command's specific variables are limited in scope to this function. Interceptors, or hooks, can be defined to be executed before and after a command or when any of its subcommands are executed. For example, the following app defines multiple commands as well as a global flag which toggles verbosity: Instead of duplicating the check for the verbose flag and setting the debug level in every command (and its sub-commands), a Before interceptor can be set on the top-level App instead: Whenever a valid command is called by the user, all the Before interceptors defined on the app and the intermediate commands will be called, in order from the root to the leaf. Similarly, to execute a hook after a command has been called, e.g. to cleanup resources allocated in Before interceptors, simply set the After field of the App struct or any other Command. After interceptors will be called, in order, from the leaf up to the root (the opposite order of the Before interceptors). The following diagram shows when and in which order multiple Before and After interceptors are executed: To exit the application, use cli.Exit function, which accepts an exit code and exits the app with the provided code. It is important to use cli.Exit instead of os.Exit as the former ensures that all of the After interceptors are executed before exiting. An App or Command's invocation syntax can be customized using spec strings. This can be useful to indicate that an argument is optional or that two options are mutually exclusive. The spec string is one of the key differentiators between this package and other CLI packages as it allows the developer to express usage in a simple, familiar, yet concise grammar. To define option and argument usage for the top-level App, assign a spec string to the App's Spec field: Likewise, to define option and argument usage for a command or subcommand, assign a spec string to the Command's Spec field: The spec syntax is mostly based on the conventions used in POSIX command line applications (help messages and man pages). This syntax is described in full below. If a user invokes the app or command with the incorrect syntax, the app terminates with a help message showing the proper invocation. The remainder of this section describes the many features and capabilities of the spec string grammar. Options can use both short and long option names in spec strings. In the example below, the option is mandatory and must be provided. Any options referenced in a spec string MUST be explicitly declared, otherwise this package will panic. I.e. for each item in the spec string, a corresponding *Opt or *Arg is required: Arguments are specified with all-uppercased words. In the example below, both SRC and DST must be provided by the user (two arguments). Like options, any argument referenced in a spec string MUST be explicitly declared, otherwise this package will panic: With the exception of options, the order of the elements in a spec string is respected and enforced when command line arguments are parsed. In the example below, consecutive options (-f and -g) are parsed regardless of the order they are specified (both "-f=5 -g=6" and "-g=6 -f=5" are valid). Order between options and arguments is significant (-f and -g must appear before the SRC argument). The same holds true for arguments, where SRC must appear before DST: Optionality of options and arguments is specified in a spec string by enclosing the item in square brackets []. If the user does not provide an optional value, the app will use the default value specified when the argument was defined. In the example below, if -x is not provided, heapSize will default to 1024: Choice between two or more items is specified in a spec string by separating each choice with the | operator. Choices are mutually exclusive. In the examples below, only a single choice can be provided by the user otherwise the app will terminate displaying a help message on proper usage: Repetition of options and arguments is specified in a spec string with the ... postfix operator to mark an item as repeatable. Both options and arguments support repitition. In the example below, users may invoke the command with multiple -e options and multiple SRC arguments: Grouping of options and arguments is specified in a spec string with parenthesis. When combined with the choice | and repetition ... operators, complex syntaxes can be created. The parenthesis in the example below indicate a repeatable sequence of a -e option followed by an argument, and that is mutually exclusive to a choice between -x and -y options. Option groups, or option folding, are a shorthand method to declaring a choice between multiple options. I.e. any combination of the listed options in any order with at least one option selected. The following two statements are equivalent: Option groups are typically used in conjunction with optionality [] operators. I.e. any combination of the listed options in any order or none at all. The following two statements are equivalent: All of the options can be specified using a special syntax: [OPTIONS]. This is a special token in the spec string (not optionality and not an argument called OPTIONS). It is equivalent to an optional repeatable choice between all the available options. For example, if an app or a command declares 4 options a, b, c and d, then the following two statements are equivalent: Inline option values are specified in the spec string with the =<some-text> notation immediately following an option (long or short form) to provide users with an inline description or value. The actual inline values are ignored by the spec parser as they exist only to provide a contextual hint to the user. In the example below, "absolute-path" and "in seconds" are ignored by the parser: The -- operator can be used to automatically treat everything following it as arguments. In other words, placing a -- in the spec string automatically inserts a -- in the same position in the program call arguments. This lets you write programs such as the POSIX time utility for example: Below is the full EBNF grammar for the Specs language: By combining a few of these building blocks together (while respecting the grammar above), powerful and sophisticated validation constraints can be created in a simple and concise manner without having to define in code. This is one of the key differentiators between this package and other CLI packages. Validation of usage is handled entirely by the package through the spec string. Behind the scenes, this package parses the spec string and constructs a finite state machine used to parse the command line arguments. It also handles backtracking, which allows it to handle tricky cases, or what I like to call "the cp test": Without backtracking, this deceptively simple spec string cannot be parsed correctly. For instance, docopt can't handle this case, whereas this package does. By default an auto-generated spec string is created for the app and every command unless a spec string has been set by the user. This can simplify use of the package even further for simple syntaxes. The following logic is used to create an auto-generated spec string: 1) start with an empty spec string, 2) if at least one option was declared, append "[OPTIONS]" to the spec string, and 3) for each declared argument, append it, in the order of declaration, to the spec string. For example, given this command declaration: The auto-generated spec string, which should suffice for simple cases, would be: If additional constraints are required, the spec string must be set explicitly using the grammar documented above. By default, the following types are supported for options and arguments: bool, string, int, strings (slice of strings), and ints (slice of ints). You can, however, extend this package to handle other types, e.g. time.Duration, float64, or even your own struct types. To define your own custom type, you must implement the flag.Value interface for your custom type, and then declare the option or argument using VarOpt or VarArg respectively if using the short-form methods. If using the long-form struct, then use Var instead. The following example defines a custom type for a duration. It defines a duration argument that users will be able to invoke with strings in the form of "1h31m42s": To make a custom type to behave as a boolean option, i.e. doesn't take a value, it must implement the IsBoolFlag method that returns true: To make a custom type behave as a multi-valued option or argument, i.e. takes multiple values, it must implement the Clear method, which is called whenever the values list needs to be cleared, e.g. when the value was initially populated from an environment variable, and then explicitly set from the CLI: To hide the default value of a custom type, it must implement the IsDefault method that returns a boolean. The help message generator will use the return value to decide whether or not to display the default value to users:

Package goworker is a Resque-compatible, Go-based background worker. It allows you to push jobs into a queue using an expressive language like Ruby while harnessing the efficiency and concurrency of Go to minimize job latency and cost. goworker workers can run alongside Ruby Resque clients so that you can keep all but your most resource-intensive jobs in Ruby.

Inertia is the command line interface that helps you set up your remote for continuous deployment and allows you to manage your deployment through configuration options and various commands. It can be installed in several ways: Users of other platforms can install the Inertia CLI from the Releases page, found here: https://github.com/ubclaunchpad/inertia/releases/latest To help with usage, most relevant documentation can be seen by using the --help flag on any command: Documentation can also be triggered by simply entering a command without the prerequisite arguments or additional commands: Inertia has two "core" sets of commands - one that primarily handles local configuration, and one that allows you to control your remote VPS instances and their associated deployments. For local configuration, most commands will build off of the root "inertia ..." command. For example, a typical set of commands to set up a project might look like: The other set of commands are based on a remote VPS configuration, and the available commands can be seen by running: In the previous example, the next steps to set up a deployment might be: Some of these commands offer a --stream flag that allows you to view realtime log feedback from the daemon. More documentation on Inertia, how it works, and how to use it can be found in the project repository: https://github.com/ubclaunchpad/inertia/tree/master

A queue with a weight of 2 will weight of 1: -queues='high=2,low=1'. -interval=5.0 — Specifies the wait period between polling if no job was in the queue the last time one was requested. -concurrency=25 — Specifies the number of concurrently executing workers. This number can be as low as 1 or rather comfortably as high as 100,000, and should be tuned to your workflow and the availability of outside resources. -connections=2 — Specifies the maximum number of Redis connections that goworker will consume between the poller and all workers. There is not much performance gain over two and a slight penalty when using only one. This is configurable in case you need to keep connection counts low for cloud Redis providers who limit plans on maxclients. -uri=redis://localhost:6379/ — Specifies the URI of the Redis database from which goworker polls for jobs. Accepts URIs of the format redis://user:pass@host:port/db or unix:///path/to/redis.sock. The flag may also be set by the environment variable $($REDIS_PROVIDER) or $REDIS_URL. E.g. set $REDIS_PROVIDER to REDISTOGO_URL on Heroku to let the Redis To Go add-on configure the Redis database. -namespace=resque: — Specifies the namespace from which goworker retrieves jobs and stores stats on workers. -exit-on-complete=false — Exits goworker when there are no jobs left in the queue. This is helpful in conjunction with the time command to benchmark different configurations. You can also configure your own flags for use within your workers. Be sure to set them before calling goworker.Main(). It is okay to call flags.Parse() before calling goworker.Main() if you need to do additional processing on your flags. To stop goworker, send a QUIT, TERM, or INT signal to the process. This will immediately stop job polling. There can be up to $CONCURRENCY jobs currently running, which will continue to run until they are finished. Like Resque, goworker makes no guarantees about the safety of jobs in the event of process shutdown. Workers must be both idempotent and tolerant to loss of the job in the event of failure. If the process is killed with a KILL or by a system failure, there may be one job that is currently in the poller's buffer that will be lost without any representation in either the queue or the worker variable. If you are running Goworker on a system like Heroku, which sends a TERM to signal a process that it needs to stop, ten seconds later sends a KILL to force the process to stop, your jobs must finish within 10 seconds or they may be lost. Jobs will be recoverable from the Redis database under as a JSON object with keys queue, run_at, and payload, but the process is manual. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the job in Redis under the worker key has not finished, if the process is killed before goworker can flush the update to Redis.

Package engineapi provides libraries to implement client and server components compatible with the Docker engine. The client package in github.com/docker/engine-api/client implements all necessary requests to implement the official Docker engine cli. Create a new client, then use it to send and receive messages to the Docker engine API: Other programs, like Docker Machine, can set the default Docker engine environment for you. There is a shortcut to use its variables to configure the client: All request arguments are defined as typed structures in the types package. For instance, this is how to get all containers running in the host:

Package construct provides a simple way to load configuration into a struct from multiple sources and formats, by relying on the struct embedded types and special interfaces. The goal is to reduce the code boilerplate used to initialize data structures to a minimum, by leveraging Go's types syntax definitions, interface methods, types reusability and by providing full support for complex field types (basic Go types, slices, maps and any combination of those.) For instance, when loading the data from the command line, instead of defining the cli options definitions using struct field tags, as it is usually done for cli parsing packages, the definitions are retrieved from the Config.Usage() method. This allows building definitions dynamically. A struct has its fields populated by calling the Load() function. The rules to populate the struct fields are as follow: fields are only processed if they are exported a field represents a config item for the Config interface an embedded type implementing the Config interface is used to group config items logically an embedded type implementing the Config and FromFlags interfaces represents a subcommand fields processing can be modified using field tags with the following format `... cfg:"[<key>][,<flag1>[,<flag2>]]" ...` If the key is "-", the field is ignored. If the key is not empty, the value is used as the field name. The following struct tag flags are currently supported: Subcommands in command line flags are defined by embedding a struct implementing both the Config and FromFlags interfaces. The FlagsDone() method is invoked on the last subcommand with the remaining command line arguments. Data used to populate structs can be fetched from various sources to override the current struct instance values in the following order: The data sources are defined by implementing the relevant interfaces on the struct: Once the data is loaded from all sources, the Init() method is invoked on the main struct as well as all the embedded ones except subcommands that have not been requested. The following types, as well as slices and maps of them, are supported: The FromIO interface is used to load and save the configuration from and to any kind of storage and using any format. Implementations for file based storage and widely used formats such as json, toml, yaml or ini are available in the construct/constructs package.

The subcommander package implements CLI subcommands and manages their flags and arguments.

Package opts is a Go Options Parsing and Tracking System. It allows for command line apps to process CLI arguments in a more customizable way than is allowed by the built-in `flags` package.

Package cmds helps building both standalone and client-server applications. The basic building blocks are requests, commands, emitters and responses. A command consists of a description of the parameters and a function. The function is passed the request as well as an emitter as arguments. It does operations on the inputs and sends the results to the user by emitting them. There are a number of emitters in this package and subpackages, but the user is free to create their own. A command is a struct containing the commands help text, a description of the arguments and options, the command's processing function and a type to let the caller know what type will be emitted. Optionally one of the functions PostRun and Encoder may be defined that consumes the function's emitted values and generates a visual representation for e.g. the terminal. Encoders work on a value-by-value basis, while PostRun operates on the value stream. An emitter has the Emit method, that takes the command's function's output as an argument and passes it to the user. The command's function does not know what kind of emitter it works with, so the same function may run locally or on a server, using an rpc interface. Emitters can also send errors using the SetError method. The user-facing emitter usually is the cli emitter. Values emitter here will be printed to the terminal using either the Encoders or the PostRun function. A response is a value that the user can read emitted values from. Responses have a method Next() that returns the next emitted value and an error value. If the last element has been received, the returned error value is io.EOF. If the application code has sent an error using SetError, the error ErrRcvdError is returned on next, indicating that the caller should call Error(). Depending on the reponse type, other errors may also occur. Pipes are pairs (emitter, response), such that a value emitted on the emitter can be received in the response value. Most builtin emitters are "pipe" emitters. The most prominent examples are the channel pipe and the http pipe. The channel pipe is backed by a channel. The only error value returned by the response is io.EOF, which happens when the channel is closed. The http pipe is backed by an http connection. The response can also return other errors, e.g. if there are errors on the network. To get a better idea of what's going on, take a look at the examples at https://github.com/stateless-minds/go-ipfs-cmds/tree/master/examples.

Package goworker is a Resque-compatible, Go-based background worker. It allows you to push jobs into a queue using an expressive language like Ruby while harnessing the efficiency and concurrency of Go to minimize job latency and cost. goworker workers can run alongside Ruby Resque clients so that you can keep all but your most resource-intensive jobs in Ruby. To create a worker, write a function matching the signature and register it using Here is a simple worker that prints its arguments: To create workers that share a database pool or other resources, use a closure to share variables. goworker worker functions receive the queue they are serving and a slice of interfaces. To use them as parameters to other functions, use Go type assertions to convert them into usable types. For testing, it is helpful to use the redis-cli program to insert jobs onto the Redis queue: will insert 100 jobs for the MyClass worker onto the myqueue queue. It is equivalent to: After building your workers, you will have an executable that you can run which will automatically poll a Redis server and call your workers as jobs arrive. There are several flags which control the operation of the goworker client. -queues="comma,delimited,queues" — This is the only required flag. The recommended practice is to separate your Resque workers from your goworkers with different queues. Otherwise, Resque worker classes that have no goworker analog will cause the goworker process to fail the jobs. Because of this, there is no default queue, nor is there a way to select all queues (à la Resque's * queue). Queues are processed in the order they are specififed. If you have multiple queues you can assign them weights. A queue with a weight of 2 will be checked twice as often as a queue with a weight of 1: -queues='high=2,low=1'. -interval=5.0 — Specifies the wait period between polling if no job was in the queue the last time one was requested. -concurrency=25 — Specifies the number of concurrently executing workers. This number can be as low as 1 or rather comfortably as high as 100,000, and should be tuned to your workflow and the availability of outside resources. -connections=2 — Specifies the maximum number of Redis connections that goworker will consume between the poller and all workers. There is not much performance gain over two and a slight penalty when using only one. This is configurable in case you need to keep connection counts low for cloud Redis providers who limit plans on maxclients. -uri=redis://localhost:6379/ — Specifies the URI of the Redis database from which goworker polls for jobs. Accepts URIs of the format redis://user:pass@host:port/db or unix:///path/to/redis.sock. The flag may also be set by the environment variable $($REDIS_PROVIDER) or $REDIS_URL. E.g. set $REDIS_PROVIDER to REDISTOGO_URL on Heroku to let the Redis To Go add-on configure the Redis database. -namespace=resque: — Specifies the namespace from which goworker retrieves jobs and stores stats on workers. -exit-on-complete=false — Exits goworker when there are no jobs left in the queue. This is helpful in conjunction with the time command to benchmark different configurations. -use-number=false — Uses json.Number when decoding numbers in the job payloads. This will avoid issues that occur when goworker and the json package decode large numbers as floats, which then get encoded in scientific notation, losing pecision. This will default to true soon. You can also configure your own flags for use within your workers. Be sure to set them before calling goworker.Main(). It is okay to call flags.Parse() before calling goworker.Main() if you need to do additional processing on your flags. To stop goworker, send a QUIT, TERM, or INT signal to the process. This will immediately stop job polling. There can be up to $CONCURRENCY jobs currently running, which will continue to run until they are finished. Like Resque, goworker makes no guarantees about the safety of jobs in the event of process shutdown. Workers must be both idempotent and tolerant to loss of the job in the event of failure. If the process is killed with a KILL or by a system failure, there may be one job that is currently in the poller's buffer that will be lost without any representation in either the queue or the worker variable. If you are running Goworker on a system like Heroku, which sends a TERM to signal a process that it needs to stop, ten seconds later sends a KILL to force the process to stop, your jobs must finish within 10 seconds or they may be lost. Jobs will be recoverable from the Redis database under as a JSON object with keys queue, run_at, and payload, but the process is manual. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the job in Redis under the worker key has not finished, if the process is killed before goworker can flush the update to Redis.

A dynamic and extensible music library organizer Demlo is a music library organizer. It can encode, fix case, change folder hierarchy according to tags or file properties, tag from an online database, copy covers while ignoring duplicates or those below a quality threshold, and much more. It makes it possible to manage your libraries uniformly and dynamically. You can write your own rules to fit your needs best. Demlo aims at being as lightweight and portable as possible. Its major runtime dependency is the transcoder FFmpeg. The scripts are written in Lua for portability and speed while allowing virtually unlimited extensibility. Usage: For usage options, see: First Demlo creates a list of all input files. When a folder is specified, all files matching the extensions from the 'extensions' variable will be appended to the list. Identical files are appended only once. Next all files get analyzed: - The audio file details (tags, stream properties, format properties, etc.) are stored into the 'input' variable. The 'output' variable gets its default values from 'input', or from an index file if specified from command-line. If no index has been specified and if an attached cuesheet is found, all cuesheet details are appended accordingly. Cuesheet tags override stream tags, which override format tags. Finally, still without index, tags can be retrieved from Internet if the command-line option is set. - If a prescript has been specified, it gets executed. It makes it possible to adjust the input values and global variables before running the other scripts. - The scripts, if any, get executed in the lexicographic order of their basename. The 'output' variable is transformed accordingly. Scripts may contain rules such as defining a new file name, new tags, new encoding properties, etc. You can use conditions on input values to set the output properties, which makes it virtually possible to process a full music library in one single run. - If a postscript has been specified, it gets executed. It makes it possible to adjust the output of the script for the current run only. - Demlo makes some last-minute tweaking if need be: it adjusts the bitrate, the path, the encoding parameters, and so on. - A preview of changes is displayed. - When applying changes, the covers get copied if required and the audio file gets processed: tags are modified as specified, the file is re-encoded if required, and the output is written to the appropriate folder. When destination already exists, the 'exist' action is executed. The program's default behaviour can be changed from the user configuration file. (See the 'Files' section for a template.) Most command-line flags default value can be changed. The configuration file is loaded on startup, before parsing the command-line options. Review the default value of the CLI flags with 'demlo -h'. If you wish to use no configuration file, set the environment variable DEMLORC to ".". Scripts can contain any safe Lua code. Some functions like 'os.execute' are not available for security reasons. It is not possible to print to the standard output/error unless running in debug mode and using the 'debug' function. See the 'sandbox.go' file for a list of allowed functions and variables. Lua patterns are replaced by Go regexps. See https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax. Scripts have no requirements at all. However, to be useful, they should set values of the 'output' table detailed in the 'Variables' section. You can use the full power of the Lua to set the variables dynamically. For instance: 'input' and 'output' are both accessible from any script. All default functions and variables (excluding 'output') are reset on every script call to enforce consistency. Local variables are lost from one script call to another. Global variables are preserved. Use this feature to pass data like options or new functions. 'output' structure consistency is guaranteed at the start of every script. Demlo will only extract the fields with the right type as described in the 'Variables' section. Warning: Do not abuse of global variables, especially when processing non-fixed size data (e.g. tables). Data could grow big and slow down the program. By default, when the destination exists, Demlo will append a suffix to the output destination. This behaviour can be changed from the 'exist' action specified by the user. Demlo comes with a few default actions. The 'exist' action works just like scripts with the following differences: - Any change to 'output.path' will be skipped. - An additional variable is accessible from the action: 'existinfo' holds the file details of the existing files in the same fashion as 'input'. This allows for comparing the input file and the existing destination. The writing rules can be tweaked the following way: Word of caution: overwriting breaks Demlo's rule of not altering existing files. It can lead to undesired results if the overwritten file is also part of the (yet to be processed) input. The overwrite capability can be useful when syncing music libraries however. The user scripts should be generic. Therefore they may not properly handle some uncommon input values. Tweak the input with temporary overrides from command-line. The prescript and postscript defined on command-line will let you run arbitrary code that is run before and after all other scripts, respectively. Use global variables to transfer data and parameters along. If the prescript and postscript end up being too long, consider writing a demlo script. You can also define shell aliases or use wrapper scripts as convenience. The 'input' table describes the file: Bitrate is in bits per seconds (bps). That is, for 320 kbps you would specify The 'time' is the modification time of the file. It holds the sec seconds and nsec nanoseconds since January 1, 1970 UTC. The entry 'streams' and 'format' are as returned by It gives access to most metadata that FFmpeg can return. For instance, to get the duration of the track in seconds, query the variable 'input.format.duration'. Since there may be more than one stream (covers, other data), the first audio stream is assumed to be the music stream. For convenience, the index of the music stream is stored in 'audioindex'. The tags returned by FFmpeg are found in streams, format and in the cuesheet. To make tag queries easier, all tags are stored in the 'tags' table, with the following precedence: You can remove a tag by setting it to 'nil' or the empty string. This is equivalent, except that 'nil' saves some memory during the process. The 'output' table describes the transformation to apply to the file: The 'parameters' array holds the CLI parameters passed to FFmpeg. It can be anything supported by FFmpeg, although this variable is supposed to hold encoding information. See the 'Examples' section. The 'embeddedcovers', 'externalcovers' and 'onlinecover' variables are detailed in the 'Covers' section. The 'write' variable is covered in the 'Existing destination' section. The 'rmsrc' variable is a boolean: when true, Demlo removes the source file after processing. This can speed up the process when not re-encoding. This option is ignored for multi-track files. For convenience, the following shortcuts are provided: Demlo provides some non-standard Lua functions to ease scripting. Display a message on stderr if debug mode is on. Return lowercase string without non-alphanumeric characters nor leading zeros. Return the relation coefficient of the two input strings. The result is a float in 0.0...1.0, 0.0 means no relation at all, 1.0 means identical strings. A format is a container in FFmpeg's terminology. 'output.parameters' contains CLI flags passed to FFmpeg. They are meant to set the stream codec, the bitrate, etc. If 'output.parameters' is {'-c:a', 'copy'} and the format is identical, then taglib will be used instead of FFmpeg. Use this rule from a (post)script to disable encoding by setting the same format and the copy parameters. This speeds up the process. The official scripts are usually very smart at guessing the right values. They might make mistakes however. If you are unsure, you can (and you are advised to) preview the results before proceeding. The 'diff' preview is printed to stderr. A JSON preview of the changes is printed to stdout if stdout is redirected. The initial values of the 'output' table can be completed with tags fetched from the MusicBrainz database. Audio files are fingerprinted for the queries, so even with initially wrong file names and tags, the right values should still be retrieved. The front album cover can also be retrieved. Proxy parameters will be fetched automatically from the 'http_proxy' and 'https_proxy' environment variables. As this process requires network access it can be quite slow. Nevertheless, Demlo is specifically optimized for albums, so that network queries are used for only one track per album, when possible. Some tracks can be released on different albums: Demlo tries to guess it from the tags, but if the tags are wrong there is no way to know which one it is. There is a case where the selection can be controlled: let's assume we have tracks A, B and C from the same album Z. A and B were also released in album Y, whereas C was release in Z only. Tags for A will be checked online; let's assume it gets tagged to album Y. B will use A details, so album Y too. Then C does not match neither A's nor B's album, so another online query will be made and it will be tagged to album Z. This is slow and does not yield the expected result. Now let's call Tags for C will be queried online, and C will be tagged to Z. Then both A and B will match album Z so they will be tagged using C details, which is the desired result. Conclusion: when using online tagging, the first argument should be the lesser known track of the album. Demlo can set the output variables according to the values set in a text file before calling the script. The input values are ignored as well as online tagging, but it is still possible to access the input table from scripts. This 'index' file is formatted in JSON. It corresponds to what Demlo outputs when printing the JSON preview. This is valid JSON except for the missing beginning and the missing end. It makes it possible to concatenate and to append to existing index files. Demlo will automatically complete the missing parts so that it becomes valid JSON. The index file is useful when you want to edit tags manually: You can redirect the output to a file, edit the content manually with your favorite text editor, then run Demlo again with the index as argument. See the 'Examples' section. This feature can also be used to interface Demlo with other programs. Demlo can manage embedded covers as well as external covers. External covers are queried from files matching known extensions in the file's folder. Embedded covers are queried from static video streams in the file. Covers are accessed from The embedded covers are indexed numerically by order of appearance in the streams. The first cover will be at index 1 and so on. This is not necessarily the index of the stream. 'inputcover' is the following structure: 'format' is the picture format. FFmpeg makes a distinction between format and codec, but it is not useful for covers. The name of the format is specified by Demlo, not by FFmpeg. Hence the 'jpeg' name, instead of 'mjpeg' as FFmpeg puts it. 'width' and 'height' hold the size in pixels. 'checksum' can be used to identify files uniquely. For performance reasons, only a partial checksum is performed. This variable is typically used for skipping duplicates. Cover transformations are specified in 'outputcover' has the following structure: The format is specified by FFmpeg this time. See the comments on 'format' for 'inputcover'. 'parameters' is used in the same fashion as 'output.parameters'. User configuration: This must be a Lua file. See the 'demlorc' file provided with this package for an exhaustive list of options. Folder containing the official scripts: User script folder: Create this folder and add your own scripts inside. This folder takes precedence over the system folder, so scripts with the same name will be found in the user folder first. The following examples will not proceed unless the '-p' command-line option is true. Important: you _must_ use single quotes for the runtime Lua command to prevent expansion. Inside the Lua code, use double quotes for strings and escape single quotes. Show default options: Preview changes made by the default scripts: Use 'alternate' script if found in user or system script folder (user folder first): Add the Lua file to the list of scripts. This feature is convenient if you want to write scripts that are too complex to fit on the command-line, but not generic enough to fit the user or system script folders. Remove all script from the list, then add '30-case' and '60-path' scripts. Note that '30-case' will be run before '60-path'. Do not use any script but '60-path'. The file content is unchanged and the file is renamed to a dynamically computed destination. Demlo performs an instant rename if destination is on the same device. Otherwise it copies the file and removes the source. Use the default scripts (if set in configuration file), but do not re-encode: Set 'artist' to the value of 'composer', and 'title' to be preceded by the new value of 'artist', then apply the default script. Do not re-encode. Order in runtime script matters. Mind the double quotes. Set track number to first number in input file name: Use the default scripts but keep original value for the 'artist' tag: 1) Preview default scripts transformation and save it to an index. 2) Edit file to fix any potential mistake. 3) Run Demlo over the same files using the index information only. Same as above but generate output filename according to the custom '61-rename' script. The numeric prefix is important: it ensures that '61-rename' will be run after all the default tag related scripts and after '60-path'. Otherwise, if a change in tags would occur later on, it would not affect the renaming script. Retrieve tags from Internet: Same as above but for a whole album, and saving the result to an index: Only download the cover for the album corresponding to the track. Use 'rmsrc' to avoid duplicating the audio file. Change tags inplace with entries from MusicBrainz: Set tags to titlecase while casing AC-DC correctly: To easily switch between formats from command-line, create one script per format (see 50-encoding.lua), e.g. ogg.lua and flac.lua. Then Add support for non-default formats from CLI: Overwrite existing destination if input is newer: ffmpeg(1), ffprobe(1), http://www.lua.org/pil/contents.html

A CLI command for sending metrics (and soon events) to DatadogHQ. To install, just run: and ensure that $GOPATH/bin is in your $PATH. Then, run "datadog". In order to authenticate with DatadogHQ, you will need to create a JSON file with your api key and app key: By default, datadog will look at ~/.datadogrc for this information but accepts a -conf flag if this information is elsewhere: The command line requires at least 3 arguments: metric type, metric name, and at least one value: You may list any number of floating point values, which will each be sumitted along with the time of execution as their time of reporting. Valid metric types are: You can also add tags for your metric. Tagging by environment or DC? No sweat: Lastly, if you don't want to send any data, there is the -dry-run flag. For more information and default values, run datadog -h

"reap" provides functionality for running commands with optional arguments as background processes. This package allows Go programs to create detached processes which can live and exit independently of their parents. This package is intended to be utilized to create an intermediate process runner (*). Such a runner is used to create a 2nd-degree child (grandchild) process, then it is discarded, which results in a detached child process. Here's an example: In a situation such as above, sending a SIGKILL or SIGTERM signal to the Child A process will cause the child process to enter a zombie state. Meaning that it has been commanded to shutdown, and consumes no resources, but its reference in the process table remains. The zombie is only created when the Parent process has not yet exited. This becomes an issue if the Parent is any process where uptime is paramount, such as a server. It's a catch 22, shutting down the server will clean up the zombie processes, but it would also defeat the purpose of having the child processes in the first place. At that point, using goroutines would be more efficient. In order for the Child processes to properly detach from the Parent, they must be orphaned. This means that they will have to belong to some process, which will exit and leave them without a Parent process. Then, the detached processes will only exit when they have either completed their task, or have been sent a termination signal. Here's what the solution would look like: When the Intermediate Parent exits, the Child will be orphaned resulting a process hierarchy like this: Now, both the Parent and Child A can behave independently of each other. This way the Parent, a server for example, can be restarted without total loss of functionality from the Child process. This is of course assuming that the host operating system is *nix based, as this package makes use of the "os/exec" package, which states the following in its documentation: (*) See https://github.com/foresthoffman/reaper for an intermediate process runner.

goworker is a Resque-compatible, Go-based background worker. It allows you to push jobs into a queue using an expressive language like Ruby while harnessing the efficiency and concurrency of Go to minimize job latency and cost. goworker workers can run alongside Ruby Resque clients so that you can keep all but your most resource-intensive jobs in Ruby. To create a worker, write a function matching the signature and register it using Here is a simple worker that prints its arguments: To create workers that share a database pool or other resources, use a closure to share variables. goworker worker functions receive the queue they are serving and a slice of interfaces. To use them as parameters to other functions, use Go type assertions to convert them into usable types. For testing, it is helpful to use the redis-cli program to insert jobs onto the Redis queue: will insert 100 jobs for the MyClass worker onto the myqueue queue. It is equivalent to: After building your workers, you will have an executable that you can run which will automatically poll a Redis server and call your workers as jobs arrive. There are several flags which control the operation of the goworker client. -queues="comma,delimited,queues" — This is the only required flag. The recommended practice is to separate your Resque workers from your goworkers with different queues. Otherwise, Resque worker classes that have no goworker analog will cause the goworker process to fail the jobs. Because of this, there is no default queue, nor is there a way to select all queues (à la Resque's * queue). Queues are processed in the order they are specififed. If you have multiple queues you can assign them weights. A queue with a weight of 2 will weight of 1: -queues='high=2,low=1'. -interval=5.0 — Specifies the wait period between polling if no job was in the queue the last time one was requested. -concurrency=25 — Specifies the number of concurrently executing workers. This number can be as low as 1 or rather comfortably as high as 100,000, and should be tuned to your workflow and the availability of outside resources. -connections=2 — Specifies the maximum number of Redis connections that goworker will consume between the poller and all workers. There is not much performance gain over two and a slight penalty when using only one. This is configurable in case you need to keep connection counts low for cloud Redis providers who limit plans on maxclients. -uri=redis://localhost:6379/ — Specifies the URI of the Redis database from which goworker polls for jobs. Accepts URIs of the format redis://user:pass@host:port/db or unix:///path/to/redis.sock. The flag may also be set by the environment variable $($REDIS_PROVIDER) or $REDIS_URL. E.g. set $REDIS_PROVIDER to REDISTOGO_URL on Heroku to let the Redis To Go add-on configure the Redis database. -namespace=resque: — Specifies the namespace from which goworker retrieves jobs and stores stats on workers. -exit-on-complete=false — Exits goworker when there are no jobs left in the queue. This is helpful in conjunction with the time command to benchmark different configurations. You can also configure your own flags for use within your workers. Be sure to set them before calling goworker.Main(). It is okay to call flags.Parse() before calling goworker.Main() if you need to do additional processing on your flags. To stop goworker, send a QUIT, TERM, or INT signal to the process. This will immediately stop job polling. There can be up to $CONCURRENCY jobs currently running, which will continue to run until they are finished. Like Resque, goworker makes no guarantees about the safety of jobs in the event of process shutdown. Workers must be both idempotent and tolerant to loss of the job in the event of failure. If the process is killed with a KILL or by a system failure, there may be one job that is currently in the poller's buffer that will be lost without any representation in either the queue or the worker variable. If you are running Goworker on a system like Heroku, which sends a TERM to signal a process that it needs to stop, ten seconds later sends a KILL to force the process to stop, your jobs must finish within 10 seconds or they may be lost. Jobs will be recoverable from the Redis database under as a JSON object with keys queue, run_at, and payload, but the process is manual. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the job in Redis under the worker key has not finished, if the process is killed before goworker can flush the update to Redis.

Package cli is meant to make handling command line interface easier. You define commands with flags, attach a handler to it and package does all the parsing. Ensure you have your workspace directory created. Let's start with an example covering everything. First, let's create main CLI instance and commands: Next, let's add flags to our commands (inside main()): Fifth argument to `NewCLIFlag` is used to define what is the type of flag, is it required etc. It's an integer value and the following `const`s are available: Check cli_flag.go for more information on flag types. Finally, let's create functions to handle our commands. In below code, you can see that method Flag on CLI instance (passed as first argument) can be used to get a flag value. And in the end of main() func:

Package engineapi provides libraries to implement client and server components compatible with the Docker engine. The client package in github.com/docker/engine-api/client implements all necessary requests to implement the official Docker engine cli. Create a new client, then use it to send and receive messages to the Docker engine API: Other programs, like Docker Machine, can set the default Docker engine environment for you. There is a shortcut to use its variables to configure the client: All request arguments are defined as typed structures in the types package. For instance, this is how to get all containers running in the host:

Command netflix-passwd-rotate is a CLI for rotating passwords on Netflix. Usage: Arguments: Other:

Package cli provides a framework to build command line applications in Go with most of the burden of arguments parsing and validation placed on the framework instead of the user. To create a new application, initialize an app with cli.App. Specify a name and a brief description for the application: To attach code to execute when the app is launched, assign a function to the Action field: To assign a version to the application, use Version method and specify the flags that will be used to invoke the version command: Finally, in the main func, call Run passing in the arguments for parsing: To add one or more command line options (also known as flags), use one of the short-form StringOpt, StringsOpt, IntOpt, IntsOpt, or BoolOpt methods on App (or Cmd if adding flags to a command or subcommand). For example, to add a boolean flag to the cp command that specifies recursive mode, use the following: The first argument is a space separated list of names for the option without the dashes. Generally, both short and long forms are specified, but this is not mandatory. Additional names (aliases) can be provide if desired, but these are not shown in the auto-generated help. The second argument is the default value for the option if it is not supplied by the user. And, the third argument is the description to be shown in help messages. There is also a second set of methods on App called String, Strings, Int, Ints, and Bool, which accept a long-form struct of the type: cli.StringOpt, cli.StringsOpt, cli.IntOpt, cli.IntsOpt, cli.BoolOpt. The struct describes the option and allows the use of additional features not available in the short-form methods described above: Two features, EnvVar and SetByUser, can be defined in the long-form struct method. EnvVar is a space separated list of environment variables used to initialize the option if a value is not provided by the user. When help messages are shown, the value of any environment variables will be displayed. SetByUser is a pointer to a boolean variable that is set to true if the user specified the value on the command line. This can be useful to determine if the value of the option was explicitly set by the user or set via the default value. The result of both short- and long-forms is a pointer to a value, which will be populated after the command line arguments are parsed. You can only access the values stored in the pointers in the Action func, which is invoked after argument parsing has been completed. This precludes using the value of one option as the default value of another. On the command line, the following syntaxes are supported when specifying options. Boolean options: String and int options: Slice options (StringsOpt, IntsOpt) where option is repeated to accumulate values in a slice: To add one or more command line arguments (not prefixed by dashes), use one of the short-form StringArg, StringsArg, IntArg, IntsArg, or BoolArg methods on App (or Cmd if adding arguments to a command or subcommand). For example, to add two string arguments to our cp command, use the following calls: The first argument is the name of the argument as displayed in help messages. Argument names must be specified as all uppercase. The second argument is the default value for the argument if it is not supplied. And the third, argument is the description to be shown in help messages. There is also a second set of methods on App called String, Strings, Int, Ints, and Bool, which accept a long-form struct of the type: cli.StringArg, cli.StringsArg, cli.IntArg, cli.IntsArg, cli.BoolArg. The struct describes the arguments and allows the use of additional features not available in the short-form methods described above: Two features, EnvVar and SetByUser, can be defined in the long-form struct method.

SetByUser is a pointer to a boolean variable that is set to true if the user specified the value on the command line. This can be useful to determine if the value of the argument was explicitly set by the user or set via the default value. The result of both short- and long-forms is a pointer to a value which will be populated after the command line arguments are parsed. You can only access the values stored in the pointers in the Action func, which is invoked after argument parsing has been completed. This precludes using the value of one argument as the default value of another. The -- operator marks the end of command line options. Everything that follows will be treated as an argument, even if starts with a dash. For example, the standard POSIX touch command, which takes a filename as an argument (and possibly other options that we'll ignore here), could be defined as: If we try to create a file named "-f" via our touch command: It will fail because the -f will be parsed as an option, not as an argument. The fix is to insert -- after all flags have been specified, so the remaining arguments are parsed as arguments instead of options as follows: This ensures the -f is parsed as an argument instead of a flag named f. This package supports nesting of commands and subcommands. Declare a top-level command by calling the Command func on the top-level App struct. For example, the following creates an application called docker that will have one command called run: The first argument is the name of the command the user will specify on the command line to invoke this command. The second argument is the description of the command shown in help messages. And, the last argument is a CmdInitializer, which is a function that receives a pointer to a Cmd struct representing the command. Within this function, define the options and arguments for the command by calling the same methods as you would with top-level App struct (BoolOpt, StringArg, ...). To execute code when the command is invoked, assign a function to the Action field of the Cmd struct. Within that function, you can safely refer to the options and arguments as command line parsing will be completed at the time the function is invoked: Optionally, to provide a more extensive description of the command, assign a string to LongDesc, which is displayed when a user invokes --help. A LongDesc can be provided for Cmds as well as the top-level App: Subcommands can be added by calling Command on the Cmd struct. They can by defined to any depth if needed: Command and subcommand aliases are also supported. To define one or more aliases, specify a space-separated list of strings to the first argument of Command: With the command structure defined above, users can invoke the app in a variety of ways: As a convenience, to assign an Action to a func with no arguments, use ActionCommand when defining the Command. For example, the following two statements are equivalent: Please note that options, arguments, specs, and long descriptions cannot be provided when using ActionCommand. This is intended for very simple command invocations that take no arguments. Finally, as a side-note, it may seem a bit weird that this package uses a function to initialize a command instead of simply returning a command struct. The motivation behind this API decision is scoping: as with the standard flag package, adding an option or an argument returns a pointer to a value which will be populated when the app is run. Since you'll want to store these pointers in variables, and to avoid having dozens of them in the same scope (the main func for example or as global variables), this API was specifically tailored to take a func parameter (called CmdInitializer), which accepts the command struct. With this design, the command's specific variables are limited in scope to this function. Interceptors, or hooks, can be defined to be executed before and after a command or when any of its subcommands are executed. For example, the following app defines multiple commands as well as a global flag which toggles verbosity: Instead of duplicating the check for the verbose flag and setting the debug level in every command (and its sub-commands), a Before interceptor can be set on the top-level App instead: Whenever a valid command is called by the user, all the Before interceptors defined on the app and the intermediate commands will be called, in order from the root to the leaf. Similarly, to execute a hook after a command has been called, e.g. to cleanup resources allocated in Before interceptors, simply set the After field of the App struct or any other Command. After interceptors will be called, in order, from the leaf up to the root (the opposite order of the Before interceptors). The following diagram shows when and in which order multiple Before and After interceptors are executed: To exit the application, use cli.Exit function, which accepts an exit code and exits the app with the provided code. It is important to use cli.Exit instead of os.Exit as the former ensures that all of the After interceptors are executed before exiting. An App or Command's invocation syntax can be customized using spec strings. This can be useful to indicate that an argument is optional or that two options are mutually exclusive. The spec string is one of the key differentiators between this package and other CLI packages as it allows the developer to express usage in a simple, familiar, yet concise grammar. To define option and argument usage for the top-level App, assign a spec string to the App's Spec field: Likewise, to define option and argument usage for a command or subcommand, assign a spec string to the Command's Spec field: The spec syntax is mostly based on the conventions used in POSIX command line applications (help messages and man pages). This syntax is described in full below. If a user invokes the app or command with the incorrect syntax, the app terminates with a help message showing the proper invocation. The remainder of this section describes the many features and capabilities of the spec string grammar. Options can use both short and long option names in spec strings. In the example below, the option is mandatory and must be provided. Any options referenced in a spec string MUST be explicitly declared, otherwise this package will panic. I.e. for each item in the spec string, a corresponding *Opt or *Arg is required: Arguments are specified with all-uppercased words. In the example below, both SRC and DST must be provided by the user (two arguments). Like options, any argument referenced in a spec string MUST be explicitly declared, otherwise this package will panic: With the exception of options, the order of the elements in a spec string is respected and enforced when command line arguments are parsed. In the example below, consecutive options (-f and -g) are parsed regardless of the order they are specified (both "-f=5 -g=6" and "-g=6 -f=5" are valid). Order between options and arguments is significant (-f and -g must appear before the SRC argument). The same holds true for arguments, where SRC must appear before DST: Optionality of options and arguments is specified in a spec string by enclosing the item in square brackets []. If the user does not provide an optional value, the app will use the default value specified when the argument was defined. In the example below, if -x is not provided, heapSize will default to 1024: Choice between two or more items is specified in a spec string by separating each choice with the | operator. Choices are mutually exclusive. In the examples below, only a single choice can be provided by the user otherwise the app will terminate displaying a help message on proper usage: Repetition of options and arguments is specified in a spec string with the ... postfix operator to mark an item as repeatable. Both options and arguments support repitition. In the example below, users may invoke the command with multiple -e options and multiple SRC arguments: Grouping of options and arguments is specified in a spec string with parenthesis. When combined with the choice | and repetition ... operators, complex syntaxes can be created. The parenthesis in the example below indicate a repeatable sequence of a -e option followed by an argument, and that is mutually exclusive to a choice between -x and -y options. Option groups, or option folding, are a shorthand method to declaring a choice between multiple options. I.e. any combination of the listed options in any order with at least one option selected. The following two statements are equivalent: Option groups are typically used in conjunction with optionality [] operators. I.e. any combination of the listed options in any order or none at all. The following two statements are equivalent: All of the options can be specified using a special syntax: [OPTIONS]. This is a special token in the spec string (not optionality and not an argument called OPTIONS). It is equivalent to an optional repeatable choice between all the available options. For example, if an app or a command declares 4 options a, b, c and d, then the following two statements are equivalent: Inline option values are specified in the spec string with the =<some-text> notation immediately following an option (long or short form) to provide users with an inline description or value. The actual inline values are ignored by the spec parser as they exist only to provide a contextual hint to the user. In the example below, "absolute-path" and "in seconds" are ignored by the parser: The -- operator can be used to automatically treat everything following it as arguments. In other words, placing a -- in the spec string automatically inserts a -- in the same position in the program call arguments. This lets you write programs such as the POSIX time utility for example: Below is the full EBNF grammar for the Specs language: By combining a few of these building blocks together (while respecting the grammar above), powerful and sophisticated validation constraints can be created in a simple and concise manner without having to define in code. This is one of the key differentiators between this package and other CLI packages. Validation of usage is handled entirely by the package through the spec string. Behind the scenes, this package parses the spec string and constructs a finite state machine used to parse the command line arguments. It also handles backtracking, which allows it to handle tricky cases, or what I like to call "the cp test": Without backtracking, this deceptively simple spec string cannot be parsed correctly. For instance, docopt can't handle this case, whereas this package does. By default an auto-generated spec string is created for the app and every command unless a spec string has been set by the user. This can simplify use of the package even further for simple syntaxes. The following logic is used to create an auto-generated spec string: 1) start with an empty spec string, 2) if at least one option was declared, append "[OPTIONS]" to the spec string, and 3) for each declared argument, append it, in the order of declaration, to the spec string. For example, given this command declaration: The auto-generated spec string, which should suffice for simple cases, would be: If additional constraints are required, the spec string must be set explicitly using the grammar documented above. By default, the following types are supported for options and arguments: bool, string, int, strings (slice of strings), and ints (slice of ints). You can, however, extend this package to handle other types, e.g. time.Duration, float64, or even your own struct types. To define your own custom type, you must implement the flag.Value interface for your custom type, and then declare the option or argument using VarOpt or VarArg respectively if using the short-form methods. If using the long-form struct, then use Var instead. The following example defines a custom type for a duration. It defines a duration argument that users will be able to invoke with strings in the form of "1h31m42s": To make a custom type to behave as a boolean option, i.e. doesn't take a value, it must implement the IsBoolFlag method that returns true: To make a custom type behave as a multi-valued option or argument, i.e. takes multiple values, it must implement the Clear method, which is called whenever the values list needs to be cleared, e.g. when the value was initially populated from an environment variable, and then explicitly set from the CLI: To hide the default value of a custom type, it must implement the IsDefault method that returns a boolean. The help message generator will use the return value to decide whether or not to display the default value to users:

Package goworker is a Resque-compatible, Go-based background worker. It allows you to push jobs into a queue using an expressive language like Ruby while harnessing the efficiency and concurrency of Go to minimize job latency and cost. goworker workers can run alongside Ruby Resque clients so that you can keep all but your most resource-intensive jobs in Ruby. To create a worker, write a function matching the signature and register it using Here is a simple worker that prints its arguments: To create workers that share a database pool or other resources, use a closure to share variables. goworker worker functions receive the queue they are serving and a slice of interfaces. To use them as parameters to other functions, use Go type assertions to convert them into usable types. For testing, it is helpful to use the redis-cli program to insert jobs onto the Redis queue: will insert 100 jobs for the MyClass worker onto the myqueue queue. It is equivalent to: After building your workers, you will have an executable that you can run which will automatically poll a Redis server and call your workers as jobs arrive. There are several flags which control the operation of the goworker client. -queues="comma,delimited,queues" — This is the only required flag. The recommended practice is to separate your Resque workers from your goworkers with different queues. Otherwise, Resque worker classes that have no goworker analog will cause the goworker process to fail the jobs. Because of this, there is no default queue, nor is there a way to select all queues (à la Resque's * queue). Queues are processed in the order they are specififed. If you have multiple queues you can assign them weights. A queue with a weight of 2 will be checked twice as often as a queue with a weight of 1: -queues='high=2,low=1'. -interval=5.0 — Specifies the wait period between polling if no job was in the queue the last time one was requested. -concurrency=25 — Specifies the number of concurrently executing workers. This number can be as low as 1 or rather comfortably as high as 100,000, and should be tuned to your workflow and the availability of outside resources. -connections=2 — Specifies the maximum number of Redis connections that goworker will consume between the poller and all workers. There is not much performance gain over two and a slight penalty when using only one. This is configurable in case you need to keep connection counts low for cloud Redis providers who limit plans on maxclients. -uri=redis://localhost:6379/ — Specifies the URI of the Redis database from which goworker polls for jobs. Accepts URIs of the format redis://user:pass@host:port/db or unix:///path/to/redis.sock. The flag may also be set by the environment variable $($REDIS_PROVIDER) or $REDIS_URL. E.g. set $REDIS_PROVIDER to REDISTOGO_URL on Heroku to let the Redis To Go add-on configure the Redis database. -namespace=resque: — Specifies the namespace from which goworker retrieves jobs and stores stats on workers. -exit-on-complete=false — Exits goworker when there are no jobs left in the queue. This is helpful in conjunction with the time command to benchmark different configurations. -use-number=false — Uses json.Number when decoding numbers in the job payloads. This will avoid issues that occur when goworker and the json package decode large numbers as floats, which then get encoded in scientific notation, losing pecision. This will default to true soon. You can also configure your own flags for use within your workers. Be sure to set them before calling goworker.Main(). It is okay to call flags.Parse() before calling goworker.Main() if you need to do additional processing on your flags. To stop goworker, send a QUIT, TERM, or INT signal to the process. This will immediately stop job polling. There can be up to $CONCURRENCY jobs currently running, which will continue to run until they are finished. Like Resque, goworker makes no guarantees about the safety of jobs in the event of process shutdown. Workers must be both idempotent and tolerant to loss of the job in the event of failure. If the process is killed with a KILL or by a system failure, there may be one job that is currently in the poller's buffer that will be lost without any representation in either the queue or the worker variable. If you are running Goworker on a system like Heroku, which sends a TERM to signal a process that it needs to stop, ten seconds later sends a KILL to force the process to stop, your jobs must finish within 10 seconds or they may be lost. Jobs will be recoverable from the Redis database under as a JSON object with keys queue, run_at, and payload, but the process is manual. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the job in Redis under the worker key has not finished, if the process is killed before goworker can flush the update to Redis.
