💅 OPTIONS 💅

These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, where long options start with two dashes (`-`). Here's the full rundown, no skips, we're doing all of them:

  • -l, --logfile — use this as the logfile. Yes, you pick it. Yes, that's the flex 💖
  • -d, --database — use this SQLite3 database file. Note the SQLite3, she's specific 👑
  • -p, --port — the port to bind the server to. Default port is 8000. Remember that number, bestie, it's important 🌈
  • -h, --help — show a summary of options. The classic "help me I'm lost" flag 🫶
  • -V, --version — show the version of the program. Capital V, not lowercase, don't get it twisted 💀
ngl, that's the whole option list. Five flags. Ate and left no crumbs, honestly 🍓
