Installing

The safest path is to install the latest release using pip:

pip install clidantic

Optionally, you can install the latest updates through GitHub:

pip install git+https://github.com/edornd/clidantic.git

or, if that doesn't work, with multiple steps (this last step might require poetry):

git clone https://github.com/edornd/clidantic.git
cd clidantic
pip install .

Quickstart

Here's a quick example to get you started:

from typing import Optional
from pydantic import BaseModel

from clidantic import Parser


class Arguments(BaseModel):
    field_a: str
    field_b: int
    field_c: Optional[bool] = False


cli = Parser()


@cli.command()
def main(args: Arguments):
    print(args)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    cli()
