# Chapter 23: Command-Line Arguments in C
|
||||
|
||||
## Complete Guide with Clay Library Examples
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.1 Introduction to Command-Line Arguments
|
||||
|
||||
When you run a program from the terminal:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./program arg1 arg2 arg3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
C provides access to these arguments through `main`:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
// argc = argument count
|
||||
// argv = argument vector (array of strings)
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Parts:**
|
||||
- `argc` - Number of arguments (including program name)
|
||||
- `argv` - Array of argument strings
|
||||
- `argv[0]` - Program name
|
||||
- `argv[1]` to `argv[argc-1]` - Actual arguments
|
||||
- `argv[argc]` - NULL pointer
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.2 Basic Example
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
printf("Program name: %s\n", argv[0]);
|
||||
printf("Argument count: %d\n", argc);
|
||||
|
||||
printf("Arguments:\n");
|
||||
for (int i = 0; i < argc; i++) {
|
||||
printf(" argv[%d] = %s\n", i, argv[i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./program hello world 123
|
||||
Program name: ./program
|
||||
Argument count: 4
|
||||
Arguments:
|
||||
argv[0] = ./program
|
||||
argv[1] = hello
|
||||
argv[2] = world
|
||||
argv[3] = 123
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.3 Processing Arguments
|
||||
|
||||
### Check Argument Count
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
if (argc != 3) {
|
||||
printf("Usage: %s <name> <age>\n", argv[0]);
|
||||
return 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
char *name = argv[1];
|
||||
int age = atoi(argv[2]); // Convert string to int
|
||||
|
||||
printf("Name: %s, Age: %d\n", name, age);
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./program John 25
|
||||
Name: John, Age: 25
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./program John
|
||||
Usage: ./program <name> <age>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.4 Parsing Numeric Arguments
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <stdlib.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
if (argc != 4) {
|
||||
printf("Usage: %s <a> <b> <c>\n", argv[0]);
|
||||
return 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Convert arguments to numbers
|
||||
int a = atoi(argv[1]); // Integer
|
||||
long b = atol(argv[2]); // Long
|
||||
double c = atof(argv[3]); // Double
|
||||
|
||||
printf("a = %d\n", a);
|
||||
printf("b = %ld\n", b);
|
||||
printf("c = %.2f\n", c);
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./program 10 1000000 3.14
|
||||
a = 10
|
||||
b = 1000000
|
||||
c = 3.14
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.5 Command-Line Flags
|
||||
|
||||
### Simple Flags
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <string.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
int verbose = 0;
|
||||
int debug = 0;
|
||||
|
||||
// Check for flags
|
||||
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
|
||||
if (strcmp(argv[i], "-v") == 0 ||
|
||||
strcmp(argv[i], "--verbose") == 0) {
|
||||
verbose = 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
else if (strcmp(argv[i], "-d") == 0 ||
|
||||
strcmp(argv[i], "--debug") == 0) {
|
||||
debug = 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
printf("Verbose: %s\n", verbose ? "ON" : "OFF");
|
||||
printf("Debug: %s\n", debug ? "ON" : "OFF");
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./program -v
|
||||
Verbose: ON
|
||||
Debug: OFF
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./program -v -d
|
||||
Verbose: ON
|
||||
Debug: ON
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./program --verbose --debug
|
||||
Verbose: ON
|
||||
Debug: ON
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.6 Flags with Values
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <string.h>
|
||||
#include <stdlib.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
char *output = "output.txt"; // Default
|
||||
int level = 1; // Default
|
||||
|
||||
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
|
||||
if (strcmp(argv[i], "-o") == 0 && i + 1 < argc) {
|
||||
output = argv[++i]; // Next argument is the value
|
||||
}
|
||||
else if (strcmp(argv[i], "-l") == 0 && i + 1 < argc) {
|
||||
level = atoi(argv[++i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
printf("Output: %s\n", output);
|
||||
printf("Level: %d\n", level);
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./program -o result.txt -l 5
|
||||
Output: result.txt
|
||||
Level: 5
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./program
|
||||
Output: output.txt
|
||||
Level: 1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.7 getopt for Option Parsing
|
||||
|
||||
POSIX provides `getopt` for standard option parsing:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <unistd.h> // POSIX
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
int opt;
|
||||
int verbose = 0;
|
||||
char *output = NULL;
|
||||
int level = 1;
|
||||
|
||||
// Parse options
|
||||
while ((opt = getopt(argc, argv, "vo:l:")) != -1) {
|
||||
switch (opt) {
|
||||
case 'v':
|
||||
verbose = 1;
|
||||
break;
|
||||
case 'o':
|
||||
output = optarg; // Option argument
|
||||
break;
|
||||
case 'l':
|
||||
level = atoi(optarg);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
case '?':
|
||||
printf("Unknown option: %c\n", optopt);
|
||||
return 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Process remaining arguments
|
||||
for (int i = optind; i < argc; i++) {
|
||||
printf("Non-option arg: %s\n", argv[i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
printf("Verbose: %d\n", verbose);
|
||||
printf("Output: %s\n", output ? output : "none");
|
||||
printf("Level: %d\n", level);
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./program -v -o test.txt -l 3 file1 file2
|
||||
Non-option arg: file1
|
||||
Non-option arg: file2
|
||||
Verbose: 1
|
||||
Output: test.txt
|
||||
Level: 3
|
||||
```
|
||||

||||
|
||||
## 23.8 Clay Example: UI Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Imagine a Clay-based application with command-line options:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <stdlib.h>
|
||||
#include <string.h>
|
||||
|
||||
typedef struct {
|
||||
int width;
|
||||
int height;
|
||||
int fullscreen;
|
||||
char *title;
|
||||
} AppConfig;
|
||||
|
||||
void printUsage(const char *programName) {
|
||||
printf("Usage: %s [options]\n", programName);
|
||||
printf("Options:\n");
|
||||
printf(" -w <width> Window width (default: 800)\n");
|
||||
printf(" -h <height> Window height (default: 600)\n");
|
||||
printf(" -f Fullscreen mode\n");
|
||||
printf(" -t <title> Window title\n");
|
||||
printf(" --help Show this help\n");
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
int parseArgs(int argc, char *argv[], AppConfig *config) {
|
||||
// Defaults
|
||||
config->width = 800;
|
||||
config->height = 600;
|
||||
config->fullscreen = 0;
|
||||
config->title = "Clay Application";
|
||||
|
||||
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
|
||||
if (strcmp(argv[i], "-w") == 0 && i + 1 < argc) {
|
||||
config->width = atoi(argv[++i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
else if (strcmp(argv[i], "-h") == 0 && i + 1 < argc) {
|
||||
config->height = atoi(argv[++i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
else if (strcmp(argv[i], "-f") == 0) {
|
||||
config->fullscreen = 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
else if (strcmp(argv[i], "-t") == 0 && i + 1 < argc) {
|
||||
config->title = argv[++i];
|
||||
}
|
||||
else if (strcmp(argv[i], "--help") == 0) {
|
||||
return 0; // Show help
|
||||
}
|
||||
else {
|
||||
printf("Unknown option: %s\n", argv[i]);
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
AppConfig config;
|
||||
|
||||
if (!parseArgs(argc, argv, &config)) {
|
||||
printUsage(argv[0]);
|
||||
return 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
printf("Starting Clay application:\n");
|
||||
printf(" Size: %dx%d\n", config.width, config.height);
|
||||
printf(" Fullscreen: %s\n", config.fullscreen ? "Yes" : "No");
|
||||
printf(" Title: %s\n", config.title);
|
||||
|
||||
// Initialize Clay with config
|
||||
// Clay_Dimensions screenSize = {config.width, config.height};
|
||||
// Clay_Initialize(...);
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./clay_app -w 1024 -h 768 -f -t "My UI"
|
||||
Starting Clay application:
|
||||
Size: 1024x768
|
||||
Fullscreen: Yes
|
||||
Title: My UI
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./clay_app --help
|
||||
Usage: ./clay_app [options]
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
-w <width> Window width (default: 800)
|
||||
-h <height> Window height (default: 600)
|
||||
-f Fullscreen mode
|
||||
-t <title> Window title
|
||||
--help Show this help
|
||||
```
|

## 23.10 Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
Access environment variables alongside arguments:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <stdlib.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[], char *envp[]) {
|
||||
printf("Arguments:\n");
|
||||
for (int i = 0; i < argc; i++) {
|
||||
printf(" %s\n", argv[i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
printf("\nEnvironment Variables:\n");
|

for (int i = 0; envp[i] != NULL; i++) {
|
||||
printf(" %s\n", envp[i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Or use getenv
|
||||
char *home = getenv("HOME");
|
||||
printf("\nHOME: %s\n", home);
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 23.11 Argument Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Robust Argument Parser
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <stdlib.h>
|
||||
#include <string.h>
|
||||
#include <limits.h>
|
||||
#include <errno.h>
|

|
||||
|
||||
if (errno == ERANGE || val > INT_MAX || val < INT_MIN) {
|

return 0; // Out of range
|
||||
}
|
||||
|

|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 23.12 Configuration Priority
|
||||
|
||||
Combine defaults, config files, and command-line arguments:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
#include <stdlib.h>
|
||||
#include <string.h>
|
||||
|
||||
typedef struct {
|
||||
int port;
|
||||
char *host;
|
||||
int debug;
|
||||
} ServerConfig;
|
||||
|
||||
void setDefaults(ServerConfig *config) {
|
||||
config->port = 8080;
|
||||
config->host = "localhost";
|
||||
config->debug = 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
void loadConfigFile(ServerConfig *config, const char *filename) {
|
||||

## 23.13 Wildcard Arguments
|
||||
|
||||
Handle wildcards expanded by shell:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
|
||||
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
||||
if (argc < 2) {
|
||||
printf("Usage: %s <files...>\n", argv[0]);
|
||||
return 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
printf("Processing %d files:\n", argc - 1);
|
||||
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
|
||||
printf(" - %s\n", argv[i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Running:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ./program *.txt
|
||||
Processing 3 files:
|
||||
- file1.txt
|
||||
- file2.txt
