That's right, you've won. Well done and come on down, today is not your lucky day. It's -- in fact -- the best day of your life. How else can you describe the moment you discovered the Console.Waterworks NuGet package? That's right, you can't. So, let's get on with basking in your glory. I can't wait.
First of all, Console.Waterworks is for writing extendable command-based console programs. Gone are the days where you need to parse user input and write error handling code. You now have the ability to write methods which act as commands at run-time. Method parameters are, also, accepted and parsed at run-time. This is brilliant and in need of a demonstration. Are you ready to see something which surpasses the hype and majesty of the sun herself? Well, come on then. It's demo. time.
As you can see in the Gif. above, the method I have written (on the left) maps to a command in the console program at run-time (on the right). There is no parsing of user input or error handling in the code, either. Don't worry, you'll be reading more about that majestic trick-shot in a moment. For now, enjoy the flashing lights. You've earned it.
We both know you're not an idiot. So, when you recognise the brilliance, you know it's one-hundred percent legitimate. This is a fair assessment. And, this next intellectual marvel will elevate your core being to a state of ecstasy. Yes, you're right. I'm about to render you stupid through the sheer splendour of intellectual stimulation. It's going to be so strong, you might consider it a form of infidelity. Let's hope you can keep your wits about you. This is your relationship at risk here, not mine. Come on you little cupcake. Let's demo.
This demo. is the one about the error handling I mentioned earlier. As you can see in the Gif., the method doesn't have any error handling code. But, the console program displays an error message to the user. Yes, you're right. It's brilliant.
This next demo. is where everything changes, though. I hope you've strapped your pants on tight.
In a moment as clear as crystal, what you’re looking at is a self-documenting "help" section. This means you no longer need to write a help guide -- from scratch -- in every console program. You can now add Waterworks custom attributes to the methods you want to declare at run-time. Console.Waterworks will make a note of those attributes and display them like the demo. shows.
Everything above is brilliant and has a place on this Earth and you know this. Like I said before, you're not an idiot. So, the next time you're writing a console program, don't forget to add Console.Waterworks to your solution.
For more information about using Console.Waterworks in your solution, head to the GitHub. Console.Waterworks is available as a .Net and .Net Core NuGet package.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to your words of recommendation about me reach me. And, when I say "reach me", I don't me via you. I mean via other people talking about you and on your behalf.
Thanks again.
