Version 1.0.0
A simple wrapper for argparse
that allows commands and arguments
to be defined declaratively using decorators. Note that this does
not support all the features of argparse
yet.
Commando also bundles a few utilities that are useful when building command line applications.
Without commando:
def main(): parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='hyde - a python static website generator', epilog='Use %(prog)s {command} -h to get help on individual commands') parser.add_argument('-v', '--version', action='version', version='%(prog)s ' __version__) parser.add_argument('-s', '--sitepath', action='store', default='.', help="Location of the hyde site") subcommands = parser.add_subparsers(title="Hyde commands", description="Entry points for hyde") init_command = subcommands.add_parser('init', help='Create a new hyde site') init_command.set_defaults(run=init) init_command.add_argument('-t', '--template', action='store', default='basic', dest='template', help='Overwrite the current site if it exists') init_command.add_argument('-f', '--force', action='store_true', default=False, dest='force', help='Overwrite the current site if it exists') args = parser.parse_args() args.run(args) def init(self, params): print params.sitepath print params.template print params.overwrite
With commando:
class Engine(Application): @command(description='hyde - a python static website generator', epilog='Use %(prog)s {command} -h to get help on individual commands') @param('-v', '--version', action='version', version='%(prog)s ' __version__) @param('-s', '--sitepath', action='store', default='.', help="Location of the hyde site") def main(self, params): pass @subcommand('init', help='Create a new hyde site') @param('-t', '--template', action='store', default='basic', dest='template', help='Overwrite the current site if it exists') @param('-f', '--force', action='store_true', default=False, dest='overwrite', help='Overwrite the current site if it exists') def init(self, params): print params.sitepath print params.template print params.overwrite
