Usage

• take a look to the basic example

use Net\Bazzline\Component\Cli\Readline\ManagerFactory;

require_once __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';

$factory    = new ManagerFactory();
$manager    = $factory->create();
$myClass    = new MyClass();    //assuming a class "MyClass" exists

$manager->setConfiguration(
    array(
        'git' => array(
            'add' => function ($files) {
                if (!is_null($files)) {
                    passthru('/usr/bin/env git add ' . implode(' ', $files));
                }
            },
            'commit' => function ($message) {
                if (is_null($message)) {
                    passthru('/usr/bin/env git commit');
                } else {
                    passthru('/usr/bin/env git commit -m "' . (string) $message . '"');
                }
            }
        ),
        'info' => 'phpinfo',
        'my' => array(
            'function_one' => array($myClass, 'one'),   //assuming MyClass has a method "one"
            'function_two' => array($myClass, 'two')    //assuming MyClass has a method "two"
        )
    )
);
$manager->setPrompt(': ');
$manager->run();

The example above would result into the following possible autocompletion cases.

• no word * git * info * my
• first word is git * add * commit
• first word is my * function_one * function_two
