Here is sample code for a shell program with one menu to check disk space on the machine.
# An import we need
import os
# Import plastron module
from plastron import Plastron
# A useful function
def useful_disk_free_check():
os.system("df -h")
# Inatalize the shell
my_shell = Plastron("Kavun", "PLASTRON", "A personal shell")
# Create a menu for this shell
metrics_menu = my_shell.menu("metrics","Metrics")
# Create an item for this menu to run the function
disk_item = my_shell.item("disk", "Disk check")
# Add the useful function to the item's procedure
disk_item.add_procedure(useful_disk_free_check)
# Add the item to the menu
metrics_menu.add_item(disk_item)
# Add the new menu to the main menu
my_shell.menus['main'].add_item(metrics_menu)
# Launch the shell
my_shell.shell()
Now run python shell.py
