Re: CLI framework using python

2014-10-15 Thread vijnaana bhairava
Hi Naoki,

I am new to python programming. Getting used to writing basic scripts to 
understand python.

To understand 'Click' i may need some more guidance.

For e.g if i were to do 'ifconfig -a' from Click, how would the program look 
like. That will help me get started.

What i am looking for is a class based approach.

For e.g all interface related commands could come under class Interface and 
'ifconfig' would probably be a method.

I would like to see one working program to get a feel for 'Click'

Thank You!
vij

Re: CLI framework using python

2014-10-14 Thread vijnaana bhairava
Hi Folks,

The requirement is to develop a CLI framework in python for a linux router.
The suggestions i got is to use PyCli/Cliff. Not sure which would be the right 
choice!  Also, a few APIs are mentioned here: 

https://pythonhosted.org/pyCLI/#module-cli.app

Since i couldn't find any actual implementation which uses pyCli,
i can't figure out how to make use of pyCLI.

Another question i have is whether it uses argparse?
If so, what value add does PYCLI do?

Regards,
vij
