Increasing versatility of trogon by making it standalone tool #64

Closed thisismygitrepo closed 1 year ago

thisismygitrepo commented 1 year ago

I'm looking for a tool and this is almost what I wanted except that its not a stand-alone utility, but rather an ad-on for people already using click.

Can I please suggest providing an example of how to use this tool independently? Concretely, the user provides a dictionary of keys with potential values for each and defaults and description etc, and boom, we have a TUI.

I think this is already what's happening internally in trogon where it is scraping the output of click to design the TUI, so in this case, we are providing that directly.

Thank you.

I think piggybacking on click is a great idea cause it provides an already well-known template of how to pass arguments and Github Copilot helps filling those in seconds thanks to popularity of click.
