    Protoargs script uses arguments parser which is generated by itself. This is the configuration for protoargs script and code generated arguments parser.

    That's how protoargs project appeared. Which converts special protobuf configuration into a ready-to-use arguments parser. And I do use it a lot in my projects. The best example was to use it in multiple commands CLI , e.g. you can implement your own "git init/clone/commit/..." easily. And protobuf allows preserving compatibility between versions. Recently I have used it inside gamedev project with a potentially huge number of commands, and now it takes me 5-10 min for new command to be added, and ~0 min to add new arguments to existing command and start using them in the code.

    I have added the project to github, so anyone could use it, called protoargs . It supports C++ and Python, but there are plans to add more programming languages, so to make arguments parsing you would need only learn how to create a configuration. When I will have enough karma points I would make a post in the opensource subreddit.
