CLI11 VS structopt

Book: CLI11 book

The most feature-rich C++ CLI library is CLI11. Other popular choices include Boost.ProgramOptions, argparse, cxxopts and others.

CLI11 provides all the features you expect in a powerful command line parser, with a beautiful, minimal syntax and no dependencies beyond C++11. itk-wasm enhances CLI11 with a itk::wasm::Pipeline wrapper to support efficient execution in multiple Wasm contexts, scientific data structures, and lovely colorized help output 🥰.

Does anyone have feedback on the possible problems with CLI11 and comparisons to any other thing available in the wild not limited to the choices I tried before? Looks like a very well-thought out library according to its documentation: https://cliutils.github.io/CLI11/book/

I'd recommend to use CLI11. I was baffled by how much it can do.

I use https://github.com/jarro2783/cxxopts.git or https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11, or if boost is involved anyway, boost.program_options.

get_dependency(spdlog "https://github.com/gabime/spdlog" v1.8.5) get_dependency(CLI11 "https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11" v1.9.1) get_dependency(GoogleTest "https://github.com/google/googletest" master)

Maybe https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11? I really like this one and it looks like it supports TOML

I found https://github.com/jarro2783/cxxopts to be useful and https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11 to be really helpful if you need an non-trivial interface.

Hello everyone! I'm not a reddit user, but my previously open-sourced projects have been only seen by one of my coworkers and I can't even find them on google, so I'm trying to get some visibility) It's just a command line parser, but it uses the idea of declaring the structure which acts as the data scheme for the parser and result storage simultaneously, which I think is the best possible approach for the problem. I was excited when I discovered it with the structopt library, but I had too many gripes with its interface (required duplication of your structure content in the macro, everything besides positional arguments has to be wrapped in std::optional, inability to set parameters' description to the help message, etc), so I've built an alternative that doesn't tick me off. At least so far) I hope someone finds it interesting.
