Commandopt 0.2.0

Turn a dict of arguments into cli commands, ideal companion of docopt.

commandopt

Turn a dict of arguments into cli commands, ideal companion of docopt.

Why ?

Using the commandopt.commandopt decorator, you are able to declare commands to be executed depending on the input arguments of your app (required or optional).

It reduces the boilerplate code in your main().

Declaration

def commandopt(mandopts: List, opts: List = None):
    # ...

Call

@commandopt(mandatory_arguments, optional_arguments)
def xxxx(*args, **kwargs):

Example usage

#myapp/myapp.py
"""Naval Fate.

Usage:
  naval_fate.py ship new <name>...
  naval_fate.py new-ship [<name>]
  naval_fate.py --version

Options:
  --version     Show version.
