Extra types and actions for argparse

Project description

Intro

Getting Started

Installing

First install with:

$ python3 -m pip install more-argparse

Importing

Then you import it with either:

import argparse
import margparse

or

from argparse import *
from margparse import *

It's important that you do the same for both.

Checking the Contents of margparse

First, open a Python interactive session:

$ python3

Then, import it and check the contents:

>>> import margparse
>>> dir(margparse)   
['GlobbingType', '__all__', '__author__', '__builtins__', '__cached__', '__contibutor__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__license__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__', '__title__', '__version__', '_actions_all', '_common', '_types_all', 'actions', 'types']

Have ideas for possible types or actions?

If you have ideas for more types or actions to be included in more-argparse, simply create an issue tagged "Feature Request" and enter your hopes and dreams for the type or action. If you have written a custom type or action in the past feel free to include the code in your issue. Better yet, include the code in the repository yourself and submit a pull request.
