Advanced creation of commands

ArgumentParser#from reads the command template class and creates a command tree from it (taking into account the possible sub-commands defined).

In the case it is needed, it is possible to use the traditional way of creating a command tree from command templates. Let's see how to do that.

Command template constructor

Command has a constructor overload that allows you to pass a command template class directly. When called, it will create the new command instance based on the template.

Example

var cmd = new ArgumentParser(MyCommand.class) {{ // adding a sub-command addCommand(new Command(MyCommand.MySubCommand.class)); // adding an extra argument addArgument(Argument.create(new StringArgumentType(), "arg1")); }};
For the parent command (MyCommand.class), the arguments present in it will be the ones defined in the template class, and the single one added manually (arg1 in this case).
MySubCommand.class will be added as a sub-command of MyCommand.class.
