Clize procedurally turns your functions into convenient command-line interfaces.

For instance:

from clize import run

def hello_world(name=None, *, no_capitalize=False):
    """Greets the world or the given name.

    name: If specified, only greet this person.

    no_capitalize: Don't capitalize the given name.
    """
    if name:
        if not no_capitalize:
            name = name.title()
        return 'Hello {0}!'.format(name)
    return 'Hello world!'

if __name__ == '__main__':
    run(hello_world)

The python code above can now be used on the command-line as follows:

$ pip install clize
$ python3 hello.py --help
    Usage: hello.py [OPTIONS] name

    Greets the world or the given name.

    Positional arguments:
      name   If specified, only greet this person.

    Options:
      --no-capitalize   Don't capitalize the given name.

    Other actions:
      -h, --help   Show the help
$ python3 hello.py
Hello world!
$ python3 hello.py john
Hello John!
$ python3 hello.py dave --no-capitalize
Hello dave!
