#' Option Parser
#'
#' @slot usage The program usage message that will printed out if
#'     \code{parse_args} finds a help option, \code{\%prog} is substituted with the
#'     value of the \code{prog} argument.
#' @slot options A list of of \code{OptionParserOption} instances that will
#'     define how \code{parse_args} reacts to command line options.
#'     \code{OptionParserOption} instances are usually created by \code{make_option}
#'     and can also be added to an existing \code{OptionParser} instance via the
#'     \code{add_option} function.
#' @slot description  Additional text for \code{print_help} to print out between
#'     usage statement and options statement
#' @slot epilogue  Additional text for \code{print_help} to print out after
#'     the options statement
#' @slot formatter  A function that \code{print_help} will use to print out after
#'     the options statement.  Default is [IndentedHelpFormatter()].  This
#'     package also provides the builtin formatter [TitledHelpFormatter()].
#' @author Trevor Davis.
#' @seealso \code{\link{OptionParserOption}}
#' @import methods
#' @exportClass OptionParser

                description = "character", epilogue = "character",
                formatter = "function"))

#' Class to hold information about command-line options
#'
#' @slot short_flag String of the desired short flag
#'     comprised of the \dQuote{-} followed by a letter.
#' @slot long_flag String of the desired long flag comprised of \dQuote{--}
#'     followed by a letter and then a sequence of alphanumeric characters.
#' @slot action A character string that describes the action \code{optparse}
#'     should take when it encounters an option, either \dQuote{store},
#'     \dQuote{store_true}, or \dQuote{store_false}.  The default is \dQuote{store}
#'     which signifies that \code{optparse} should store the specified following
#'     value if the option is found on the command string.  \dQuote{store_true}
#'     stores \code{TRUE} if the option is found and \dQuote{store_false} stores
#'     \code{FALSE} if the option is found.
#' @slot type A character string that describes specifies which data type
#'     should be stored, either \dQuote{logical}, \dQuote{integer}, \dQuote{double},
#'     \dQuote{complex}, or \dQuote{character}.  Default is \dQuote{logical} if
#'     \code{action \%in\% c("store_true", store_false)}, \code{typeof(default)} if
#'     \code{action == "store"} and default is not \code{NULL} and
#'     \dQuote{character} if \code{action == "store"} and default is \code{NULL}.
#'     \dQuote{numeric} will be converted to \dQuote{double}.
#' @slot dest A character string that specifies what field in the list returned
#'     by \code{parse_args} should \code{optparse} store option values.  Default is
#'     derived from the long flag in \code{opt_str}.
#' @slot default The default value \code{optparse} should use if it does not
#'     find the option on the command line.
#' @slot help A character string describing the option to be used by
#'     \code{print_help} in generating a usage message.  \code{\%default} will be
#'     substituted by the value of \code{default}.
#' @slot metavar A character string that stands in for the option argument when
#'     printing help text.  Default is the value of \code{dest}.
#' @slot callback A function that executes after the each option value is fully parsed
#' @slot callback_args Additional arguments that pass to the callback function.
#' @seealso \code{\link{make_option}}
#' @exportClass OptionParserOption
#' @export OptionParserOption

#' A function to create an instance of a parser object
#'
#' This function is used to create an instance of a parser object
#' which when combined with the \code{parse_args}, \code{make_option}, and \code{add_option}
#' methods is very useful for parsing options from the command line.
#'
#' @param usage The program usage message that will printed out if
#'     \code{parse_args} finds a help option, \code{\%prog} is substituted with the
#'     value of the \code{prog} argument.
#' @param option_list A list of of \code{OptionParserOption} instances that will
#'     define how \code{parse_args} reacts to command line options.
#'     \code{OptionParserOption} instances are usually created by \code{make_option}
#'     and can also be added to an existing \code{OptionParser} instance via the
#'     \code{add_option} function.
#' @param add_help_option Whether a standard help option should be automatically
#'     added to the \code{OptionParser} instance.
#' @param prog Program name to be substituted for \code{\%prog} in the usage
#'     message (including description and epilogue if present),
#'     the default is to use the actual Rscript file name if called by an
#'     Rscript file and otherwise keep \code{\%prog}.
#' @param description  Additional text for \code{print_help} to print out between
#'     usage statement and options statement
#' @param epilogue  Additional text for \code{print_help} to print out after
#'     the options statement
#' @param formatter A function that formats usage text.
#'                  The function should take only one argument (an `OptionParser()` object).
#'                  Default is [IndentedHelpFormatter()].
#'                  The other builtin formatter provided by this package is [TitledHelpFormatter()].
#' @return An instance of the \code{OptionParser} class.

#'     alphanumeric characters and optionally a string of the desired short flag
#'     comprised of the \dQuote{-} followed by a letter.
#' @param action A character string that describes the action \code{optparse}
#'     should take when it encounters an option, either \dQuote{store},
#'     \dQuote{store_true}, \dQuote{store_false}, or \dQuote{callback}.
#'     An action of \dQuote{store} signifies that \code{optparse}
#'      should store the specified following value if the option is found on the command string.
#'     \dQuote{store_true} stores \code{TRUE} if the option is found
#'      and \dQuote{store_false} stores \code{FALSE} if the option is found.
#'     \dQuote{callback} stores the return value produced by the function
#'     specified in the \code{callback} argument.
#'     If \code{callback} is not \code{NULL} then the default is \dQuote{callback} else \dQuote{store}.
#' @param type A character string that describes specifies which data type
#'     should be stored, either \dQuote{logical}, \dQuote{integer}, \dQuote{double},
#'     \dQuote{complex}, or \dQuote{character}.  Default is \dQuote{logical} if
#'     \code{action \%in\% c("store_true", store_false)}, \code{typeof(default)} if
#'     \code{action == "store"} and default is not \code{NULL} and
#'     \dQuote{character} if \code{action == "store"} and default is \code{NULL}.
#'     \dQuote{numeric} will be converted to \dQuote{double}.
#' @param dest A character string that specifies what field in the list returned
#'     by \code{parse_args} should \code{optparse} store option values.  Default is
#'     derived from the long flag in \code{opt_str}.
#' @param default The default value \code{optparse} should use if it does not
#'     find the option on the command line.
#' @param help A character string describing the option to be used by
#'     \code{print_help} in generating a usage message.  \code{\%default} will be
#'     substituted by the value of \code{default}.
#' @param metavar A character string that stands in for the option argument when
#'     printing help text.  Default is the value of \code{dest}.
#' @param callback A function that executes after the each option value is fully
#'     parsed.  It's value is assigned to the option and its arguments are
#'     the option S4 object, the long flag string, the value of the option,
#'     the parser S4 object, and \code{...}.
#' @param callback_args A list of additional arguments passed to callback function (via \code{do.call}).
#' @return Both \code{make_option} and \code{add_option} return instances of
#'     class \code{OptionParserOption}.

#' Parse command line options.

#' setting the options \code{positional_arguments} and \code{convert_hyphens_to_underscores}
#' to \code{TRUE}.
#'
#' @param object An \code{OptionParser} instance.
#' @param args A character vector containing command line options to be parsed.
#'     Default is everything after the Rscript program in the command line. If
#'     \code{positional_arguments} is not \code{FALSE} then \code{parse_args} will
#'     look for positional arguments at the end of this vector.
#' @param print_help_and_exit Whether \code{parse_args} should call

#'     is \code{TRUE}.

#'     denoting the exact number of supported arguments, or a numeric vector of
#'     length two denoting the minimum and maximum number of arguments
#'     (\code{Inf} for no limit).  The value \code{TRUE} is equivalent to

#'     supported for backward compatibility only, as it alters
#'     the format of the return value.
#' @param convert_hyphens_to_underscores If the names in the returned list of options
#'      contains hyphens then convert them to underscores.  The default \code{FALSE} is
#'      supported for backward compatibility reasons as it alters the format of the return value
#' @return Returns a list with field \code{options} containing our option values
#'     as well as another field \code{args} which contains a vector of
#'     positional arguments.  For backward compatibility, if and only if
#'     \code{positional_arguments} is \code{FALSE}, returns a list containing
#'     option values.
