Hello,
I am trying to use OptionParser (my first time) to set a variable (cvs_output). i.e. if --csv is given in the list of
options, then cvs_output = True.
Then I check,
if cvs_output == True:
[...]
I have the following so far but something is missing.
from optparse import OptionParser
usage = "usage: %prog [options]"
parser = OptionParser(usage=usage)
parser.add_option("-cvs", dest="output", default=True, help="outputs the csv file
for plotting activites")
python dUCx_ActivityPlots.py
python dUCx_ActivityPlots.2.py -h
Usage: dUCx_ActivityPlots.2.py [options]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--cvs=OUTPUT_FLAG outputs the csv file for plotting activities
I don't really understand what dest and action in the arguments to
parser.add_option mean.
Any help is appreciated.
Mina
