ltool's Issues

Escriptize ltool?

Hi @oubiwann, it's been a long time

Do you have plans to escriptize ltool? Is ltool mean to provide a wrapper to the LFE rebar3 plugins or do you have something else in mind?

Add rebar3 wrapper

We can probably do this without any cli parsing (i.e, not a dependency of issue #2).

The following need to be wrapped:

• rebar3 help lfe
• rebar3 help lfe <task>
• rebar3 lfe clean
• rebar3 lfe compile
• rebar3 lfe repl
• rebar3 lfe test
• rebar3 lfe version

Add arg/opt parsing support

There are several LFE projects that do a certain amount of arg-prasing. In particular, the lcli project does some of this here:

• https://github.com/oubiwann/lcli/blob/master/src/lcli.lfe

lcli uses the https://github.com/erlsci/getopt for low-level option parsing.

We can probably just use lcli here, and add the support we need to that library in order to have sensible command line parsing for ltool.
