2.0.0: Rewrite CLI parsing onto CLI11 + a JSON settings pipeline - #175
Merged
Conversation
Prepares for the CLI parser refactor onto magic_args + a JSON-merge settings pipeline. - target_compile_features: cxx_std_20 -> cxx_std_23 (magic_args requires C++23) - CPMAddPackage magic_args v0.2.1 (header-only INTERFACE: magic_args::magic_args) - CPMAddPackage nlohmann/json 3.12.0 (nlohmann_json::nlohmann_json) - link both into the pluginval target Verified: clean build + link under C++23 with juce_recommended_warning_flags on JUCE 8.0.13 (macOS/AppleClang); binary runs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Introduces a single parser-agnostic settings struct and a layered
JSON pipeline that replaces the bespoke juce::ArgumentList parser.
Pipeline: each input layer (--config file, environment, CLI) becomes a
sparse nlohmann::json object; layers are merged with merge_patch in
precedence order (defaults < config < env < CLI, CLI wins) and
deserialised in one step into PluginvalSettings, which converts to the
existing PluginTests::Options at the JUCE boundary.
- PluginvalSettings.h: unified std-typed struct + toPluginTestOptions()
+ fromPluginTestOptions(); NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE..._WITH_DEFAULT so
missing keys fall back to defaults; RealtimeCheck enum<->string mapping.
- SettingsSerializer.{h,cpp}: JSON load/save + the comma-list, hex-seed
and disabled-tests(file-or-list) coercions shared by the CLI/env layers.
- SettingsParser.{h,cpp}: preprocess (deprecation rewrite, macOS flag
strip, implicit --validate), magic_args parse of the flat options into
the sparse CLI layer, env layer, merge, and the child-process handoff.
- Child process round-trip now uses an authoritative base64 JSON arg
(--config-base64) instead of per-flag re-serialisation, avoiding
quote/tokenisation hazards. Round-trip asserted in tests.
- CommandLine.{h,cpp}: thin adapter; old manual parsers/env-merge/help
text deleted. magic_args drives --help (auto usage + env-var trailer).
- New --config <file.json> option; precedence covered by tests.
- CommandLineTests.cpp rewritten against the new pipeline (defaults,
parser, hex seed, comma lists, rtcheck, path resolution, implicit
validate, env precedence, config precedence, round-trip).
- CMake: macOS deployment target 10.11 -> 13.3 (std::format in magic_args
requires libc++ floating-point to_chars, available on 13.3+); add new
sources.
All --run-tests pass.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>- docs/Command line options.md regenerated from magic_args --help output - CLAUDE.md: document the JSON-merge settings pipeline, new source files, magic_args + nlohmann/json deps, C++23, and the macOS 13.3 deployment target Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Addresses review feedback that the magic_args version duplicated the
settings into a parallel PluginvalCliArgs struct plus manual CLI->JSON
and ENV->JSON bridges (5-6 edit sites per new option), and forced
cxx_std_23 + a macOS 13.3 deployment target (std::format).
CLI11 binds each option directly to a PluginvalSettings member, with the
environment variable on the same line via ->envname(). Adding an option
is now three edits: a struct member, a nlohmann macro entry, and one
add_option(...) line. No parallel struct, no cliArgsToJson, no envLayer.
- SettingsParser: rewritten on CLI11; comma lists via ->delimiter(','),
enum via CheckedTransformer, hex/int seed via a small callback. --config
seeds the struct before parse so precedence stays defaults<config<env<CLI.
--help/--version handled by CLI11 (auto usage + footer).
- SettingsSerializer: dropped the comma/JSON-array coercions; kept the hex
seed + disabled-tests(file-or-list) helpers and JSON load/save.
- Child-process base64 JSON handoff (--config-base64) unchanged.
- CommandLineTests: env tests now use setenv/unsetenv (CLI11 reads the real
environment); all other cases unchanged. All --run-tests pass.
- CMake: magic_args -> CLI11 2.6.2; revert cxx_std_23 -> cxx_std_20 and
CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 13.3 -> 10.11.
- Docs/CLAUDE.md updated.
Verified: full build (validator ON, C++20, macOS 10.11), --run-tests pass,
real --validate SUCCESS, --config precedence covered by tests.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>Three regressions surfaced by CI (develop is green): - Linux build: std::int64_t (== long on LP64) vs juce::int64 (== long long) made expectEquals template deduction fail. Cast the settings int64 fields to juce::int64 in CommandLineTests. (macOS compiled because there the two types are identical.) - "Pluginval as Dependency" Verify: verify_pluginval runs `pluginval --help | grep "JUCE v<version>"`. CLI11's auto help didn't print the JUCE version; add it to the help footer. - Windows --run-tests exit 127: runUnitTests() called the [[noreturn]] juce::ConsoleApplication::fail(), which throws; outside a ConsoleApplication command handler that throw was uncaught -> std::terminate. Set the application return value directly instead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Linux build: include <CLI/CLI.hpp> before the JUCE headers. JUCE pulls in X11 on Linux (JUCE_GUI_BASICS_INCLUDE_XHEADERS), whose `#define Success 0` clashed with CLI11's CLI::ExitCodes::Success enumerator. macOS/Windows don't use X11, so only Linux was affected. - runUnitTests now prints each failed test (name + messages) to stdout. juce::UnitTestRunner logs via juce::Logger, which on a GUI app (Windows) doesn't reach the console, so CI couldn't show which tests failed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
"Command line parser" asserted opts.dataFile/outputDir.getFullPathName() against Unix-style literals; on Windows juce::File normalises those to the current drive (e.g. "D:\path\to\file"), failing the comparison. Assert the raw parsed settings strings instead, which are identical on all platforms. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reworks the layering so a --config file (deliberate, per-invocation) ranks above ambient environment variables, and makes --config repeatable. - Environment layer: env-var names are now derived from the registered CLI11 options (--strictness-level -> STRICTNESS_LEVEL) instead of CLI11's ->envname(), so there is no hand-maintained env table and env support is automatic for every option. A synthetic "--name=value" argv is built from the environment and parsed by CLI11, reusing all its coercion (comma lists, enum transformer, hex-seed callback). Flags accept --flag=1/0. - --config: repeatable; each JSON file is merge_patch-ed in command-line order (later files win per key). Applied between the env and CLI layers, so it beats env and loses to explicit CLI options. (Inline JSON dropped for now to avoid command-line re-tokenisation hazards; file paths only.) - The env layer reads through an injectable EnvProvider again, so the unit tests no longer mutate the real process environment (also removes the Windows _putenv_s fragility). - Tests updated for the new precedence + a repeatable-config test. - Help footer, docs and CLAUDE.md updated. Verified end-to-end: env(6) -> 6; env(6)+config(2) -> 2; +CLI(9) -> 9. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- CHANGELIST.md: 2.0.0 entry summarising the CLI11/JSON parser rewrite, --config, the new precedence, and the breaking changes (VERSION not bumped). - --config-base64 (internal parent->child handoff) now errors if combined with any option other than --validate, instead of silently ignoring it. Test added. - SUBCOMMANDS_HANDOFF.md: handoff doc for the deferred subcommand restructure (validate/run-tests/strictness-help with deprecated flat-flag aliases). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- --validate-in-process is not a CLI option (launchInProcess is GUI/internal only); the new strict parser would now error on it. Removed from the options list and corrected the process-model notes (GUI uses child processes; the CLI --validate runs in-process with signal-handler crash reporting). - Note the staged 2.0.0 CHANGELIST entry vs the un-bumped VERSION.

Source/tests/EditorTests.cpp and Source/tests/ExtremeTests.cpp were never added to SourceFiles, so their self-registering PluginTest instances were never compiled in and the tests never ran. Add them to the build. Re-enables: "Editor stress" (L6), "Editor DPI Awareness" (L3, Windows only), "Allocations during process" (L9), "Process called with a larger than prepared block size". Verified they compile and pass a real strictness-10 validation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Qualify juce::ScopedDPIAwarenessDisabler. The EditorDPITest block is guarded by #if JUCE_WINDOWS && JUCE_WIN_PER_MONITOR_DPI_AWARE, so this latent bug only surfaced now that EditorTests.cpp is compiled (and only on Windows). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Brings in the drag-and-drop validation feature (#170 + follow-ups) that landed on develop after this branch was created. Only conflict was Source/CommandLine.cpp: develop renamed a lambda parameter (args -> commandArgs) inside the old performCommandLine/ConsoleApplication block that this refactor deleted, so the change is moot. Resolved by keeping the refactored CommandLine.cpp. The drag-and-drop changes (MainComponent.*, PluginvalLookAndFeel.h) and the CHANGELIST entry merged cleanly. Verified: builds (incl. MainComponent drag-and-drop) and --run-tests pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
