I have built a CLI on top of that and it's pretty easy and effective, and it requires almost no dev. The following code is untested but it should give you an idea of what I mean. cli.py: import IPython import yourApi # explict exposure foo = yourApi.foo bar = yourApi.bar # or you can expose all the content of yourApi api = yourApi # delete unwanted names del yourApi del IPython # start the interactive CLI IPython.frontend.terminal.embed.InteractiveShellEmbed(banner1='Hello Word', exit_msg='bbye')() Regards, JM -- IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.

I don't understand what you're asking either. Can you be more specific? I've never heard of "PyCli." What is it? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

If so, then there are a number of aspects you can google for: - command line argument parsing. See python docs on argparse - A read/eval print loop using custom keywords and syntax, if you want your program to be interactive. - you'll need to use readline to handle line editing - something to parse line input. PyParsing perhaps. Or some other lexical parser, or manually do the parsing you need to do with .split() or regular expressions. - possibly curses for doing screen output, though print() is probably sufficient. Except for pyparsing everything is in the standard library. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
PyCli : Need some reference to good books or tutorials on pycli
Hi Folks, I need to develop a CLI (PyCli or similar)on Linux. To be more specific to develop Quagga(open source routing software) like commands using python instead of C. Need some good reference material for the same. P.S google didn't help Thank You! Vij -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
