Welcome! Additionally to the default behaviour of the argparse.ArgumentParser, the funcargparse.FuncArgParser in this package allows you to
automatically create a parser entirely from the docstring of a function, including the help, metavar, action, type and other parameters
Let’s you chain subparsers
There are a lot of argparse extensions out there, but through the use of the docrep package, this package can extract much more information to automate the creation of the command line utility.
See the documentation for more information.
Installation
Simply install it via pip:
$ pip install funcargparse
Or you install it via:
$ python setup.py install
from the source on GitHub.
Requirements
The package only requires the docrep package which we use under the hood to extract the necessary parts from the docstrings.
The package has been tested for python 2.7 and 3.5.
