New submission from Victor Porton <[email protected]>:
I have:
parser.add_argument('-p', '--preload', help='preload asset', action='append',
metavar='NAMESPACE')
I want also add:
parser.add_argument('-f', '--file', help='preload file', action='append',
metavar='FILE', dest='preload')
This way I could specify -p and/or -f options in any order (like: first -p then
-f then -p again) and store then in 'preload' field in the order which the user
specified the options.
But I have no way to know if an option is -p or -f :-(
Please add something to argparse to solve this problem.
