They have their own access functions in the forms of drush\_set\_arguments(), drush\_get\_arguments(), drush\_set\_command(), drush\_get\_command(). + +- command : The drush command being executed. +- arguments : Any additional arguments that were specified. + +Setting contexts +---------------- + +These contexts store options that have been passed to the drush.php script, either through the use of any of the config files, directly from the command line through --option='value' or through a JSON encoded string passed through the STDIN pipe. + +These contexts are accessible through the drush\_get\_option() and drush\_set\_option() functions. See drush\_context\_names() for a description of all of the contexts. + +Drush commands may also choose to save settings for a specific context to the matching configuration file through the drush\_save\_config() function. + +Available Setting contexts +-------------------------- + +These contexts are evaluated in a certain order, and the highest priority value is returned by default from drush\_get\_option. This allows scripts to check whether an option was different before the current execution. + +Specified by the script itself : + +- process : Generated in the current process. +- cli : Passed as --option=value to the command line. +- stdin : Passed as a JSON encoded string through stdin. +- alias : Defined in an alias record, and set in the alias context whenever that alias is used. +- specific : Defined in a command-specific option record, and set in the command context whenever that command is used. + +Specified by config files : + +- custom : Loaded from the config file specified by --config or -c +- site : Loaded from the drushrc.php file in the Drupal site directory. +- drupal : Loaded from the drushrc.php file in the Drupal root directory. +- user : Loaded from the drushrc.php file in the user's home directory. +- drush : Loaded from the drushrc.php file in the $HOME/.drush directory. +- system : Loaded from the drushrc.php file in the system's $PREFIX/etc/drush directory. +- drush : Loaded from the drushrc.php file in the same directory as drush.php. + +Specified by the script, but has the lowest priority : + +- default : The script might provide some sensible defaults during init. +
