steverusso / goclap Goto Github PK

To make it additionally obvious that the generated code file is generated, can goclap add a file extension (ex: file.gen.go)?

As an example, protobuf's generated files have pb in their name (ex: file.pb.go).

Since the usage messages are string constants using raw Go strings, any backticks within the content cause the stings to end, and then the code won't compile.

Since the examples themselves are programs, they need something to show their example usage.

@steverusso I started making a Go Example test here, but goclap doesn't seem to generate the right code if it's outside the main package.

Is this something it could support? I think having testable example would be beneficial for the project!

I like the idea of using comments to get program configuration, but I use environment variables instead of command line arguments. Can goclap support this, similar to env?
