Nested Verbs

[MoeFarag]

I've tried to create nested verbs like many CLIs

Example (from docker CLI)

• docker image ls and docker image rm

I tried the following two ways but it didn't work (following above example commands).

• Spaced Verb

[Verb("image ls"]
public class ImageListOptions {}

• Nested Verbs

[Verb("image"]
public class ImageOptions {
    [Verb("ls"]
    public class ListOptions{ }
}

If this is not supported, then I suggest adding it - I could contribute to getting it done as well. I would suggest going with the Nested Verbs approach if the current code base would allow it.

See #353 for discussion about sub verbs
and #13

Thanks @Olympic1 for pointing me to the discussions #13 seems to be pretty old and outdated by now. #353 seems to be a discussions that got lost but has multiple ideas to implement

Below are the candidates but also the discussion has many insights
https://github.com/twaalewijn/commandlineparser-subverbextension
https://github.com/edongashi/CommandlineChildVerbs (that uses the old api though)

I Believe #353 stays the most relevant open discussion about the topic. Closing this one to avoid dupes. and moving discussion there in future.

I'll get back to that
