Move to cobra library. about codeowners-validator HOT 2 OPEN

Can I suggest urfave/cli(v2) instead?

I think Cobra is a bit overkill unless you have a rich set of sub-commands, parameters, flags, etc., and ends up being a pain to maintain if you only have a couple options. I have found for smaller projects that urfave/cli is a lot easier.

To add to it, it was recently released with a V2 so it's under active development again.

Hi @klauern thanks for that suggestion. I also think that cobra is quite overkilling but it provides autocompletion, generating documentation from code etc., working with the configuration from different sources and I know it from some CLIs such as docker, k8s.

But first, look at urfave/cli is really promising and I will definitely do the comparison and consider to choose the simplest one :) thanks for heads up! 👍
