python-argh binary package in Ubuntu Xenial amd64
Argh provides a very simple wrapper for argparse.
.
Argparse is a very powerful tool; argh just makes it easy to use.
.
Here’s a list of features that argh adds to argparse:
.
* mark a function as a CLI command and specify its arguments before
the parser is instantiated;
* nested commands made easy: no messing with subparsers;
* infer command name from function name;
* infer agrument type from the default value;
* infer argument action from the default value (for booleans);
* infer arguments from function signature;
* add an alias root command help for the --help argument;
* enable passing unwrapped arguments to certain functions instead of
an argparse.Namespace object.
.
Argh is fully compatible with argparse. You can mix argh-agnostic and
argh-aware code. Just keep in mind that dispatch() does some extra
work that a custom dispatcher may not do.
.
This package installs the library for Python 2.
