"""Parser for command line options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This module helps scripts to parse the command line arguments in
|
|
|
|
sys.argv. It supports the same conventions as the Unix getopt()
|
|
|
|
function (including the special meanings of arguments of the form `-'
|
|
|
|
and `--'). Long options similar to those supported by GNU software
|
|
|
|
may be used as well via an optional third argument. This module
|
|
|
|
provides a single function and an exception:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
getopt() -- Parse command line options
|
|
|
|
GetoptError -- exception (class) raised with 'opt' attribute, which is the
|
|
|
|
option involved with the exception.

Parses command line options and parameter list. args is the
|
|
|
|
argument list to be parsed, without the leading reference to the
|
|
|
|
running program. Typically, this means "sys.argv[1:]". shortopts
|
|
|
|
is the string of option letters that the script wants to
|
|
|
|
recognize, with options that require an argument followed by a
|
|
|
|
colon (i.e., the same format that Unix getopt() uses). If
|
|
|
|
specified, longopts is a list of strings with the names of the
|
|
|
|
long options which should be supported. The leading '--'
|
|
|
|
characters should not be included in the option name. Options
|
|
|
|
which require an argument should be followed by an equal sign
|
|
|
|
('=').
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The return value consists of two elements: the first is a list of
|
|
|
|
(option, value) pairs; the second is the list of program arguments
|
|
|
|
left after the option list was stripped (this is a trailing slice
|
|
|
|
of the first argument). Each option-and-value pair returned has
|
|
|
|
the option as its first element, prefixed with a hyphen (e.g.,
|
|
|
|
'-x'), and the option argument as its second element, or an empty
|
|
|
|
string if the option has no argument. The options occur in the
|
|
|
|
list in the same order in which they were found, thus allowing
|
|
|
|
multiple occurrences. Long and short options may be mixed.
