Main command entry point infrastructure for MoaT applications.

% end synopsis

This module provides the infrastructure for building command-line interfaces for MoaT applications. It includes:

• Command-line argument parsing with Click integration
• Subcommand loading from internal modules and extensions
• Configuration file handling
• Logging setup
• Main entry point wrappers for testing

Usage

Basic command setup

from moat.lib.run import main_, wrap_main

@main_.command()
async def my_command(ctx):
    """A simple command"""
    print("Hello from my command!")

Loading subcommands

Use load_subgroup to create command groups that automatically load subcommands:

from moat.lib.run import load_subgroup
import asyncclick as click

@load_subgroup(prefix="myapp.commands")
@click.pass_context
async def cli(ctx):
    """Main command group"""
    pass

Processing command-line arguments

The attr_args decorator and process_args function provide flexible argument handling:

from moat.lib.run import attr_args, process_args

@main_.command()
@attr_args(with_path=True)
async def configure(**kw):
    """Configure the application"""
    config = process_args({}, **kw)
    # config now contains parsed arguments

Key Functions

• main_: The default main command handler
• wrap_main: Wrapper for the main command, useful for testing
• load_subgroup: Decorator to create command groups with automatic subcommand loading
• attr_args: Decorator for adding flexible argument handling to commands
• process_args: Function to process command-line arguments into configuration
• Loader: Click group class that loads commands from submodules and extensions
