Clinto

clinto

This converts an assortment of python command line interfaces into a language agnostic build spec for usage in GUI creation.

Here's a basic usage:

from clinto import parser
specs = parser.Parser(script_path='/home/chris/Devel/pythomics/pythomics/scripts/proteinInference.py', script_name='Protein Inference')
specs.get_script_description()
{
  'name': 'Protein Inference Script',
  'path': '/home/chris/Devel/pythomics/pythomics/scripts/proteinInference.py'
  'description': '\nThis script will annotate a tab delimited text file with peptides with\ncorresponding proteins present in an annotation file, and can also\nuse this annotation to include iBAQ measures.\n',
