Overview

Yapx is "yeah, another argparse extension" for building Python CLIs with the utmost simplicity.

It works by reading type hints of Python functions and dataclasses, and uses them to construct an argparse ArgumentParser.

Yapx features:

• Support for subcommands
• Support for lists in various forms: (positional) 1 2 3, (multiple) -x 1 -x 2 -x 3, (multi-value) -x 1 2 3, (comma-separated), -x 1, 2, 3, (string) -x '[1, 2, 3]'
• Support for dictionaries / key-value mappings such as --values one=1 two=2 three=3
• Support for optional booleans: --flag / --no-flag
• Support for feature flags: --dev / --test / --prod
• Support for counting parameters: -vvv
• Automatic "helpful" arguments: --help, --help-all, --version, etc.
• Support for setting values from environment variables

Install

Yapx has no 3rd-party dependencies out-of-the-box:
