ParamsReturnSource
Parse incoming request from console. Short and long (GNU-style) options in the form of `-f`, `--foo`, `--foo-bar` and `--foo=bar` are parsed. XF68-style long options (i.e. `-foo`) are not supported but support can be added by extending this class.

Parameters

  • object $request lithium\console\Request

Returns

array $params
