feat(cli): --overlay FILE, so a local calendar can be supplied
The Overlay algebra has been built and tested since Plan 2, and
Date_spec grew movable variants last commit, but there was still no way
to hand colitur a file: bin/main.ml applied exactly one overlay, the
shipped data/ef/adjustments.sexp, with the path hardcoded. This is the
plumbing.
--overlay is repeatable and ordered, and applies ON TOP of the shipped
adjustments rather than instead of them. That ordering is the whole
point: adjustments.sexp carries RG 110's own 30 June companion, the Major
Litanies, St Barbara and Rogation Wednesday, and a user file that
replaced it would silently drop all four while appearing merely to add a
local feast. Overlay.merge is last-writer-wins, so a local calendar can
still override a universal entry deliberately, by naming its slug.
The dispatch needed real argument parsing. It matched Sys.argv as an
exact array, which does not survive a repeatable flag -- two --overlay
arguments are a different array shape from one, and each further flag
would multiply the patterns again. Flags are now stripped first and the
remaining words matched as command plus year. Hand-rolled, because the
dependency list is frozen and this is fifteen lines. One defect found by
the cram suite on the first run: the unknown-option guard rejected
--help and --version, having excluded only their short forms.
Refused, not ignored, on easter and temporal. Neither reads sanctoral
data -- temporal deliberately runs the cycle before any layer exists --
so accepting the flag there and silently doing nothing is the failure
mode this project refuses everywhere else.
A file that fails to load is fatal, exactly as the shipped overlay is; a
directive naming a slug that does not exist warns on stderr and the run
continues. The second matters more for a user file than for ours: a typo
in a diocesan calendar should say so rather than quietly do nothing.
test/fixtures/overlay-example-diocesan.sexp is a worked example and is
labelled as invented, not calendar data. It carries both shapes a real
local calendar needs: a fixed-date patron, and a dedication on "the first
Sunday of October" -- which is the case the Date_spec work existed to
unlock and which lands on 4 October in 2026, 3 October in 2027, 1 October
in 2028. The dedication is I class because a church's own dedication
anniversary is I class in that church; at III class it lost to the
II-class Sunday every year, which a first draft demonstrated correctly
and uselessly.
The man page gains an OVERLAYS section saying plainly that an overlay is
applied, NOT validated: the five test layers assert things about the
shipped calendar and none of them can vouch for a file the user supplies.
This is the first feature that lets someone change what colitur computes,
and that distinction should not have to be inferred.
