# Making a git clone
|
|
|
|
Let's try our hand at a little `git` clone, called `geet`. It will just print
|
|
it's intent, rather than running actual code, since it's just a demonstration.
|
|
Let's start by adding an app and requiring 1 subcommand to run:
|
|
|
|
[include:"Intro"](../code/geet.cpp)
|
|
|
|
Now, let's define the first subcommand, `add`, along with a few options:
|
|
|
|
[include:"Add"](../code/geet.cpp)
|
|
|
|
Now, let's add `commit`:
|
|
|
|
[include:"Commit"](../code/geet.cpp)
|
|
|
|
All that's need now is the parse call. We'll print a little message after the
|
|
code runs, and then return:
|
|
|
|
[include:"Parse"](../code/geet.cpp)
|
|
|
|
[Source code](https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11/tree/main/book/code/geet.cpp)
|
|
|
|
If you compile and run:
|
|
|
|
```term
|
|
gitbook:examples $ c++ -std=c++11 geet.cpp -o geet
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You'll see it behaves pretty much like `git`.
|
|
|
|
## Multi-file App parse code
|
|
|
|
This example could be made much nicer if it was split into files, one per
|
|
subcommand. If you simply use shared pointers instead of raw values in the
|
|
lambda capture, you can tie the lifetime to the lambda function lifetime. CLI11
|
|
has a
|
|
[multifile example](https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11/tree/main/examples/subcom_in_files)
|
|
in its example folder.
