Migration from scopt 2.x

Here's an example of scopt 2.x immutable parser:

case class Config(foo: Int = 0)
val parser = new scopt.immutable.OptionParser[Config]("scopt", "2.x") { def options = Seq(
  intOpt("f", "foo", "foo is an integer property") { (v: Int, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(foo = v) },
  help(None, "version", "display this message"),
  arglist("<schema_file>...", "input schema to be converted") { (x: String, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
) }
// parser.parse returns Option[C]
parser.parse(args, Config()) map { config =>
  println(config.foo)
} getOrElse {
  // arguments are bad, usage message will have been displayed
}

step 0

The case class and parser.parse part stay the same. So we'll look at the parser part.

step 1

Create new scopt.OptionParser[Config] instead of immutable or mutable.

step 2

def options = Seq() is no longer needed.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt", "2.x") {
  intOpt("f", "foo", "foo is an integer property") { (v: Int, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(foo = v) }
  help(None, "version", "display this message")
  arglist("<schema_file>...", "input schema to be converted") { (x: String, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 3

Move out version number into head along with the product name.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  intOpt("f", "foo", "foo is an integer property") { (v: Int, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(foo = v) }
  help(None, "version", "display this message")
  arglist("<schema_file>...", "input schema to be converted") { (x: String, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 4

Change opt, intOpt, keyValueOpt to opt[String], opt[Int], and opt[(String, String)] respectively.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  opt[Int]('f', "foo", "foo is an integer property") { (v: Int, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(foo = v) }
  help(None, "version", "display this message")
  arglist("<schema_file>...", "input schema to be converted") { (x: String, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 5

Change shortOpt to a Char, or omit the parameter instead of passing None.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  opt[Int]('f', "foo", "foo is an integer property") { (v: Int, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(foo = v) }
  help("version", "display this message")
  arglist("<schema_file>...", "input schema to be converted") { (x: String, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 6

Move descriptions out to text method.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  opt[Int]('f', "foo") text("foo is an integer property") { (v: Int, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(foo = v) }
  help("version") text("display this message")
  arglist("<schema_file>...") text("input schema to be converted") { (x: String, c: Config) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 7

Place callback closure in action method for immutable parsing. foreach for mutable parsing. Type annotations shouldn't be needed.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  opt[Int]('f', "foo") text("foo is an integer property") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(foo = x) }
  help("version") text("display this message")
  arglist("<schema_file>...") text("input schema to be converted") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 8

There's now version method that prints out only the header text. Consider providing both --help and --version.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  opt[Int]('f', "foo") text("foo is an integer property") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(foo = x) }
  help("help") text("display this message")
  version("version") text("display version info")
  arglist("<schema_file>...") text("input schema to be converted") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 9

Change both arg and arglist to arg[String]. Call unbounded() for arglist.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  opt[Int]('f', "foo") text("foo is an integer property") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(foo = x) }
  help("help") text("display this message")
  version("version") text("display version info")
  arg[String]("<schema_file>...") unbounded() text("input schema to be converted") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ (new File(x))) }
}

step 10

scopt now supports java.io.File, java.util.Calendar, java.net.URI, etc.

val parser = new scopt.OptionParser[Config]("scopt") {
  head("Very scopt", "3.x")
  opt[Int]('f', "foo") text("foo is an integer property") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(foo = x) }
  help("help") text("display this message")
  version("version") text("display version info")
  arg[File]("<schema_file>...") unbounded() text("input schema to be converted") action { (x, c) =>
    c.copy(files = c.files :+ x) }
}
