python的argparse模块

一、简介:

argparse是python用于解析命令行参数和选项的标准模块,用于代替已经过时的optparse模块。argparse模块的作用是用于解析命令行参数,例如python parseTest.py input.txt output.txt --user=name --port=8080。

二、使用步骤:

1:import argparse

2:parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()

3:parser.add_argument()

4:parser.parse_args()

解释:首先导入该模块;然后创建一个解析对象;然后向该对象中添加你要关注的命令行参数和选项,每一个add_argument方法对应一个你要关注的参数或选项;最后调用parse_args()方法进行解析;解析成功之后即可使用,下面简单说明一下步骤2和3。

三、方法ArgumentParser(prog=None, usage=None,description=None, epilog=None, parents=[],formatter_class=argparse.HelpFormatter, prefix_chars='-',fromfile_prefix_chars=None, argument_default=None,conflict_handler='error', add_help=True)

这些参数都有默认值,当调用parser.print_help()或者运行程序时由于参数不正确(此时python解释器其实也是调用了pring_help()方法)时,会打印这些描述信息,一般只需要传递description参数,如上。

四、方法add_argument(name or flags...[, action][, nargs][, const][, default][, type][, choices][, required][, help][, metavar][, dest])

其中:

name or flags:命令行参数名或者选项,如上面的address或者-p,--port.其中命令行参数如果没给定,且没有设置defualt,则出错。但是如果是选项的话,则设置为None

nargs:命令行参数的个数,一般使用通配符表示,其中,'?'表示只用一个,'*'表示0到多个,'+'表示至少一个

default:默认值

type:参数的类型,默认是字符串string类型,还有float、int等类型

help:和ArgumentParser方法中的参数作用相似,出现的场合也一致

最常用的地方就是这些,其他的可以参考官方文档。下面给出一个例子,基本包括了常见的情形:

 1 import argparse
 2  
 3 def parse_args():
 4     description = usage: %prog [options] poetry-file
 5  
 6 This is the Slow Poetry Server, blocking edition.
 7 Run it like this:
 8  
 9   python slowpoetry.py <path-to-poetry-file>
10  
11 If you are in the base directory of the twisted-intro package,
12 you could run it like this:
13  
14   python blocking-server/slowpoetry.py poetry/ecstasy.txt
15  
16 to serve up John Donne's Ecstasy, which I know you want to do.
17  
18  
19     parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description = description)
20      
21     help = The addresses to connect.
22     parser.add_argument('addresses',nargs = '*',help = help)
23  
24     help = The filename to operate on.Default is poetry/ecstasy.txt
25     parser.add_argument('filename',help=help)
26  
27     help = The port to listen on. Default to a random available port.
28     parser.add_argument('-p',--port', type=int, help=help)
29  
30     help = The interface to listen on. Default is localhost.
31     parser.add_argument('--iface', help=help, default='localhost')
32  
33     help = The number of seconds between sending bytes.
34     parser.add_argument('--delay', type=float, help=help, default=.7)
35  
36     help = The number of bytes to send at a time.
37     parser.add_argument('--bytes', type=int, help=help, default=10)
38  
39     args = parser.parse_args();
40     return args
41  
42 if __name__ == '__main__':
43     args = parse_args()
44      
45     for address in args.addresses:
46         print 'The address is : %s .' % address
47      
48     print 'The filename is : %s .' % args.filename
49     print 'The port is : %d.' % args.port
50     print 'The interface is : %s.' % args.iface
51     print 'The number of seconds between sending bytes : %f'% args.delay
52     print 'The number of bytes to send at a time : %d.' % args.bytes</path-to-poetry-file>

运行该脚本:python test.py --port 10000 --delay 1.2 127.0.0.1 172.16.55.67 poetry/ecstasy.txt

 

输出为:

The address is : 127.0.0.1 .
The address is : 172.16.55.67 .
The filename is : poetry/ecstasy.txt .
The port is : 10000.
The interface is : localhost.
The number of seconds between sending bytes : 1.200000
The number of bytes to send at a time : 10.
