A combination command-line flag and configuration file library for Go.

// define your flags.
var procs int
flag.IntVar(&procs, "procs", runtime.NumCPU(), "GOMAXPROCS")

// set flags from configuration before parse command-line flags.
if args, err := conflag.ArgsFrom("/path/to/config.toml"); err == nil {
	flag.CommandLine.Parse(args)
}

// parse command-line flags.
flag.Parse()

and you create /path/to/config.toml

procs = 2

and run your app without option, procs flag will be set in 2 that is defined at configration file.

A priority of flag is

command-line flag > configration file > flag default value

In the above case,

You can specify positions arguments to ArgsFrom function.

[options]
flag = "value"

[other settings]
hoge = "fuga"

// parse configration only under the options section.
conflag.ArgsFrom("/path/to/config.toml", "options")

• Combine command-line flag and configuration file.
• Specify configration section.
• Support TOML configuration file.
• Support JSON configuration file.
