### Bind Flags with Config
You can also bind your flags with [viper](https://github.com/spf13/viper):
```go
var author string
func init() {
RootCmd.PersistentFlags().StringVar(&author, "author", "YOUR NAME", "Author name for copyright attribution")
viper.BindPFlag("author", RootCmd.PersistentFlags().Lookup("author"))
}

More in [viper documentation](https://github.com/spf13/viper#working-with-flags).
