readline
-
CLI application libraries, updated versions (readline and spf13/cobra console).
A readline shell library: https://github.com/reeflective/readline.The `readline` library has been fully rewritten to provide full support for the widespread `.inputrc` init file format (used by bash shells and all programs using the GNU C Readline library). The library has been rewritten into a much more robust codebase with complete test coverage of the core code.

Show HN: New set of Go libraries for CLI Development
This library wraps the readline library (described below) and leverages cobra commands in order to provide a closed-loop console working with cobra commands out of the box, also providing many comfort-of-life features at minimum cost, like support for oh-my-posh prompt engines, different menus and much more.

Libraries for CLI and console applications
Readline (https://github.com/reeflective/readline) Readline libraries in pure Go already exist, and the chzyer/readline one is widely used. However they might lack some features, or even a full-fledged Emacs/Vim edition mode. Most of them lack many UI features found in common shells. Readline has been written to bring a new shell library with features found in most recent shells, with a simple API for developpers.

Recommended framework/library for creating cli apps in go?
I personally swear by the go-arg package, as i prefer its library-not-framework approach.

argparse - Argparse for golang. Just because `flag` sucks
flags - Generate cobra command trees from structs. Go-flags compliant tags. Advanced CLI functionality, out-of-the-box.
flag - Flag is a simple but powerful command line option parsing library for Go support infinite level subcommand
sflags - Generate flags by parsing structures
cobra - A Commander for modern Go CLI interactions
go-flags - go command line option parser
chroma - A general purpose syntax highlighter in pure Go
