CLI::Console

Basic library for making interactive command-line applications much easier.

• Easy way to add commands and help info to them so it can be shown to user.
• Auto-completion for commands.
• Command aliasing.

Simply

gem install cli-console

This library doesn't have any dependencies. Well actually there are no direct dependencies. In reality you do need HighLine. Then why did I say there's no dependencies? Because CLI::Console will accept any class implementing those few functions currently provided by HighLine.

Also, this library requires Ruby version 1.9.x or newer (works fine with 2.0)

Take a look at examples/shell.rb

YARD with markdown is used for documentation

RSpec and simplecov are required, to run tests just rake spec code coverage will also be generated
