Question

Python2.7 argparse只接受互斥组中的可选参数（前缀）：

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='mydaemon')
action = parser.add_mutually_exclusive_group(required=True)
action.add_argument('--start', action='store_true', help='Starts %(prog)s daemon')
action.add_argument('--stop', action='store_true', help='Stops %(prog)s daemon')
action.add_argument('--restart', action='store_true', help='Restarts %(prog)s daemon')

$ mydaemon -h

usage: mydaemon [-h] (--start | --stop | --restart)

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  --start     Starts mydaemon daemon
  --stop      Stops mydaemon daemon
  --restart   Restarts mydaemon daemon

有没有办法让argparse参数像传统的unix守护进程控件一样：

(start | stop | restart) and not (--start | --stop | --restart) ?

Answer 1

对于argparse中的所有能力和选项，我认为你不会得到一个看起来像你想要的“罐装”用法字符串。

那就是说，你从原始帖子开始看过子解析器吗？

这是一个准系统实现：

import argparse

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='mydaemon')
sp = parser.add_subparsers()
sp_start = sp.add_parser('start', help='Starts %(prog)s daemon')
sp_stop = sp.add_parser('stop', help='Stops %(prog)s daemon')
sp_restart = sp.add_parser('restart', help='Restarts %(prog)s daemon')

parser.parse_args()

使用-h选项运行此选项会产生：

usage: mydaemon [-h] {start,stop,restart} ...

positional arguments:
  {start,stop,restart}
    start               Starts mydaemon daemon
    stop                Stops mydaemon daemon
    restart             Restarts mydaemon daemon

这种方法的一个好处是能够使用set_defaults为每个子解析器直接将函数连接到参数。我还为stop和restart添加了“优雅”选项：

import argparse

def my_stop(args):
    if args.gracefully:
        print "Let's try to stop..."
    else:
        print 'Stop, now!'

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='mydaemon')

graceful = argparse.ArgumentParser(add_help=False)
graceful.add_argument('-g', '--gracefully', action='store_true', help='tries to terminate the process gracefully')
sp = parser.add_subparsers()
sp_start = sp.add_parser('start', help='Starts %(prog)s daemon')
sp_stop = sp.add_parser('stop', parents=[graceful],
                    description='Stops the daemon if it is currently running.',
                    help='Stops %(prog)s daemon')
sp_restart = sp.add_parser('restart', parents=[graceful], help='Restarts %(prog)s daemon')

# Hook subparsers up to functions
sp_stop.set_defaults(func=my_stop)

# Uncomment when my_start() and 
# my_restart() are implemented
#
# sp_start.set_defaults(func=my_start)
# sp_restart.set_defaults(func=my_restart)

args = parser.parse_args()
args.func(args)

显示stop的“帮助”消息：

$ python mydaemon.py stop -h
usage: mydaemon stop [-h] [-g]

Stops the daemon if it is currently running.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help        show this help message and exit
  -g, --gracefully  tries to terminate the process gracefully

“优雅地”停止：

$ python mydaemon.py stop -g
Let's try to stop...

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()

group = parser.add_mutually_exclusive_group()
group.add_argument('-a', action='store_true')
group.add_argument('-b', action='store_true')

print parser.parse_args()

$ python argparse_mutually_exclusive.py -h

optional arguments:  
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit

Answer 3

听起来你想要一个位置参数而不是互斥的选项。您可以使用“选项”来限制可能的可接受选项。

parser = ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('action', choices=('start', 'stop', 'restart'))

这会产生如下所示的使用行：

usage: foo.py [-h] {start,stop,restart}

Answer 4

以Adam的答案为基础......如果您想指定默认值，您可以随时执行以下操作，以便有效地将其留空。

import argparse

ActionHelp = """
    Start = Starts the daemon (default)
    Stop = Stops the daemon
    Restart = Restarts the daemon
    """
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(formatter_class=argparse.RawTextHelpFormatter)

parser.add_argument('action', nargs = '?', choices=('start', 'stop', 'restart'),
    default = 'start', help = ActionHelp)

print parser.parse_args(''.split())
print
print parser.parse_args('-h'.split())

将打印：

Namespace(action='start')

usage: program.py [-h] [{start,stop,restart}]

postional arguments:
    {start,stop,restart}
                      Start = Starts the daemon (default)
                      Stop = Stops the daemon
                      Restart = Restarts the daemon

optional arguments:
    -h, --help        show this help message and exit

如何使python argparse没有前缀的互斥组参数？
