Immediately off the top of your head what is the best Rust CLI library.

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/rust

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • pico-args

    An ultra simple CLI arguments parser.

  • If I forget to get around to it, would you mind poking RazrFalcon/pico-args about adding it to the comparison chart? I really like using that thing as something I can link people to with just a quick explanation of that particular trade-off.

  • argh

    Rust derive-based argument parsing optimized for code size

  • It'll panic if the path contains non-UTF8-able bytes.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • clap-rs

    A full featured, fast Command Line Argument Parser for Rust

  • Well, accept that the clap team (somewhat rudely) refused to bring in structopt's paw feature, which I actually really liked.

  • cli-guidelines

    A guide to help you write better command-line programs, taking traditional UNIX principles and updating them for the modern day.

  • argparse-benchmarks-rs

    Discontinued Collected benchmarks for arg parsing crates written in Rust [Moved to: https://github.com/rosetta-rs/argparse-rosetta-rs]

  • You can use this link: https://github.com/rust-cli/argparse-benchmarks-rs

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
