<h1>Unix-like Command style<a class="headerlink" href="#unix-like-command-style" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p>Contribution by Vincent Le Geoff (vlgeoff), 2017</p>
<p>This module contains a command class with an alternate syntax parser implementing
Unix-style command syntax in-game. This means <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--options</span></code>, positional arguments
and stuff like <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-n</span> <span class="pre">10</span></code>. It might not the best syntax for the average player
but can be really useful for builders when they need to have a single command do
many things with many options. It uses the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ArgumentParser</span></code> from Pythons standard
library under the hood.</p>
<section id="installation">
<h2>Installation<a class="headerlink" href="#installation" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>To use, inherit <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">UnixCommand</span></code> from this module from your own commands. You need
to override two methods:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">init_parser</span></code> method, which adds options to the parser. Note that you
should normally <em>not</em> override the normal <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">parse</span></code> method when inheriting from
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">UnixCommand</span></code>.</p></li>
<li><p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">func</span></code> method, called to execute the command once parsed (like any Command).</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Heres a short example:</p>
<div class="highlight-python notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">evennia.contrib.base_systems.unixcommand</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">UnixCommand</span>
