ChangeLog

version 0.4.4:

change auto balance function, fix the issue that won't work for this case

.. code-block:: python

"""
Usage:
    cp [options] <source>... <target>

Options:
    -R
"""

Summary

How do you define your command line interface? Write a parse by yourself or spend hours learning optparse / argparse , and modify both code side and document every time you update the interface?

Life is short, man! You can simply do it this way:

.. code:: python

""" My copy script

Usage: cp.py [options] <source_file> <target_file> cp.py [options] <source_file>... <target_directory>

Options: -h -? --help print this screen --version print the version of this script -v --verbose print more information while running """

from docpie import docpie args = docpie(doc) print(args)

Now run it

.. code:: bash

$ python cp.py a.txt b.txt c.txt /tmp {'--': False, '--help': False, '--verbose': False, '--version': False, '-?': False, '-h': False, '-v': False, '<source_file>': ['a.txt', 'b.txt', 'c.txt'], '<target_directory>': '/tmp', '<target_file>': None}

Write a __doc__, pass it to a function, DONE! Isn't it simple?

Why docpie?

docpie can greatly reduce the work you need to be done for command-line interface. What you see is what you get. Every time you only need to update your document, and keep the code unchanged.
