Nick Dimiduk commented on PHOENIX-3517:
---------------------------------------
bq. Would somethign like virtualenv be a tool to use here? Or should we just
avoid opening the can of worms on non-default-modules entirely?
Virtualenv would be super complicated for us; it's not worth it just for
arg-parsing. If you're happy with the library you're using, then just use it.
If we really wanted docopt, i think it has no dependencies, which means we
could drop the file into our bin dir and just use it (license permitting
distribution, of course).
> Use argparse in sqlline-thin.py

> sqlline-thin.py just does hand-rolled argument parsing. We can simplify the
> code, make better usage and validation choices, and support some extra
> options that we presently default to.
> Python's argparse does all of these for us.
