/* Automatically convert an attribute set to command-line options.

This helps protect against malformed command lines and also to reduce
|

boilerplate related to command-line construction for simple use cases.

`toGNUCommandLine` returns a list of nix strings.
|

`toGNUCommandLineShell` returns an escaped shell string.

Example:
|
||
cli.toGNUCommandLine {} {
|
||
data = builtins.toJSON { id = 0; };
|
||
X = "PUT";
|
||
retry = 3;
|

retry-delay = null;

url = [ "https://example.com/foo" "https://example.com/bar" ];
|
||
silent = false;
|
||
verbose = true;
|
||
}
|
||
=> [
|
||
"-X" "PUT"
|
||
"--data" "{\"id\":0}"
|
||
"--retry" "3"
|
||
"--url" "https://example.com/foo"
|

"--url" "https://example.com/bar"
|
||
"--verbose"
