toolcli 0.5.0

toolcli makes it easy to create structured hierarchical cli tools

toolcli

toolcli makes it simple to create modular command line interfaces

the main usecase for toolcli is allowing many cli subcommands to be defined across many files in a performant way

toolcli uses argparse under the hood, making it easy to transition from argparse to toolcli when a project is ready to scale to multiple subcommands or multiple files

Features

• lazy loading of files for fast startup times
• is agnostic to synchronous functions or async functions
• uses rich for colorized help output
• uses argparse under the hood for parsing arguments
• no user-facing objects, just simple functions
• built-in support for common subcommands like help, cd, and version
• can use middleware before and/or after main command execution (e.g. for logging or additional context injection)
