All flags are optional. Glice supports the following flags:

- i [boolean, indirect] // Parses indirect dependencies as well
- p [string - path] // Path to be scanned in form of github.com/author/repo
- t [boolean - thanks] // if GitHub API key is provided, setting this flag will star all GitHub repos from dependency. __In order to do this, API key must have access to public_repo__
- v (boolean - verbose) // If enabled, will log dependencies before fetching and printing them.
- fmt (string - format) // Format of the output. Defaults to table, other available options are `csv` and `json`.
- o (string - otuput) // Destination of the output, defaults to stdout. Other option is `file`.
Don’t forget -help flag for detailed usage information.
