Typin, pronounced as "Type in", is a simple to use, yet powerful framework for building both interactive command line applications and command line tools (Type in == Type interactively). Typin is not just a parser but a complete application framework. Its main goal is to provide an enjoyable, similar to ASP.NET Core, development experience when building command line applications.

Typin is build based on the source code of CliFx, but it wants to be a ASP.NET Core for CLI like Cocona but faster. It has many additional features compared to CliFx:

  • Interactive mode with auto-completion, parameter escaping with ", and support for user-defined shortcuts,
  • Middleware pipeline,
  • Custom directives that can be used as either flags (IDirective) or dynamic pipeline extensions (IPipelinedDirective),
  • IOptionFallbackProvider for custom fallback providers instead of only environment variable fallback,
  • Build-in DI support with Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection that is used accross entire framework,
  • Build-in options support with Microsoft.Extensions.Options,
  • Ability to modify exception handling with one or more exception handlers,
  • Ability to execute commands from other commands or services with ICliCommandExecutor (NOT RECOMMENDED, except for custom CLI mode classes),
  • DI injectable ICliContext with lots of useful data,
  • Manual property in CommandAttribute that can be used to provide a long, extended description of a command,
  • Custom help writer.
  • Custom modes support and application lifetime management.
  • Startup message color personalization through a callback method.
  • Console IO wrapper classes (StandardStreamReader and StandardStreamWriter) and IO interfaces.
  • Logging with Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.
  • Optional option and parameter names by automatically generated kebab case name.
  • Better char parsing: support for the following escape sequences: '\0', '\a', '\b', '\f', '\n', '\r', '\t', '\v', '\\', and Unicode escape e.g. \u006A).
  • Native support for parsing Half type in .NET 5 targeted applications.
  • Validation can be easily added with FluentValidation and a middleware.
  • Console input/output targeted extensions through IStandardInput, IStandardOuput, IStandardError, IStandardOutputAndError, IStandardRedirectableConsoleStream, StandardStreamReader, StandardStreamWriter.

Overall, Typin is a framework that is much more flexible and rich with both features and metadata about defined commands etc.
