Version v1.2.7 as of 2024-10-02 see Changelog

build_badge codeql license jupyter pypi PyPI - Downloads black codecov Maintainability Maintainability Code Coverage snyk

small toolset to properly exit a cli application:

  • print the traceback information (can be set with commandline option)

  • get a proper exit code from the Exception

  • flush the streams, to make sure output is written in proper order

  • demo how to integrate into Your cli module (see usage)


automated tests, Github Actions, Documentation, Badges, etc. are managed with PizzaCutter (cookiecutter on steroids)

Python version required: 3.8.0 or newer

tested on recent linux with python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, pypy-3.9, pypy-3.10, graalpy-24.1 - architectures: amd64

100% code coverage, flake8 style checking ,mypy static type checking ,tested under Linux, macOS, Windows, automatic daily builds and monitoring

Installation and Upgrade

  • Before You start, its highly recommended to update pip:

python -m pip --upgrade pip
  • to install the latest release from PyPi via pip (recommended):

python -m pip install --upgrade cli_exit_tools
  • to install the latest release from PyPi via pip, including test dependencies:

python -m pip install --upgrade cli_exit_tools[test]
  • to install the latest version from github via pip:

python -m pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/bitranox/cli_exit_tools.git
  • include it into Your requirements.txt:

# Insert following line in Your requirements.txt:
# for the latest Release on pypi:
cli_exit_tools

# for the latest development version :
cli_exit_tools @ git+https://github.com/bitranox/cli_exit_tools.git

# to install and upgrade all modules mentioned in requirements.txt:
python -m pip install --upgrade -r /<path>/requirements.txt
  • to install the latest development version, including test dependencies from source code:

# cd ~
$ git clone https://github.com/bitranox/cli_exit_tools.git
$ cd cli_exit_tools
python -m pip install -e .[test]
  • via makefile: makefiles are a very convenient way to install. Here we can do much more, like installing virtual environments, clean caches and so on.

# from Your shell's homedirectory:
$ git clone https://github.com/bitranox/cli_exit_tools.git
$ cd cli_exit_tools

# to run the tests:
$ make test

# to install the package
$ make install

# to clean the package
$ make clean

# uninstall the package
$ make uninstall

Requirements

following modules will be automatically installed :
