pairef.launcher module

class pairef.launcher.MyArgumentParser(prog=None, usage=None, description=None, epilog=None, version=None, parents=[], formatter_class=<class 'argparse.HelpFormatter'>, prefix_chars='-', fromfile_prefix_chars=None, argument_default=None, conflict_handler='error', add_help=True)

Bases: argparse.ArgumentParser

Helper class for argparse

It adds an attribute add_argument_with_check that check if file given in argument exist but not open it. Inspired by https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/28608/ checking-if-cli-arguments-are-valid-files-directories-in-python

add_argument_with_check(*args, **kwargs)

New attribute for argparse that checks if file given in argument exist but does not open it.

error(message: string)

Prints a usage message incorporating the message to stderr and exits.

If you override this in a subclass, it should not return – it should either exit or raise an exception.
