Re: [go-nuts] How to have a raw parameter value in cobra?
Ok, that worked. I had tried that before, but I had done it wrong.

Re: [go-nuts] How to have a raw parameter value in cobra?
Somewhere in your main, you should be calling rootCmd.Execute(). Instead:
func main() {
// first, make sure there are at least 2 args. Then, process the
1st parameter
// Then
rootCmd.SetArgs(os.Args[2:])
rootCmd.Execute()
}

Re: [go-nuts] How to have a raw parameter value in cobra?
But where would that be done? I'm not certain of the exact role of the "rootCmd.Execute()" function, or the optional "Run" function in the Command object. Neither of those appear to be executed, when I just run " You can do rootCmd.SetArgs(os.Args[2:]), and process the first > parameter yourself. > > On Sun, Feb 25, 2024 at 11:43 AM David Karr wrote: > > > > I am not a new programmer, but I am pretty new to golang, having only > written a couple of small applications, and that was several months ago. > I'm trying to construct an application using Cobra, using some nonstandard > conventions.

Re: [go-nuts] How to have a raw parameter value in cobra?
You can do rootCmd.SetArgs(os.Args[2:]), and process the first parameter yourself.
