Re: [julia-users] ArgParse @add_arg_table not recognized

[Kevin Squire]

Hi Uthsav,

Can you give some more details about what you're actually trying to do?

If you're simply trying to break up your files, it should work fine.

$ julia argparse_example3.jl --opt1 1 2 3
Parsed args:
  arg1  =>  Any["2","3"]
  karma  =>  0
  arg2  =>  Any["no_arg_given"]
  opt1  =>  1

$ echo 'include("argparse_example3.jl")' > arg_test.jl
$ julia arg_test.jl --opt1 1 2 3
Parsed args:
  arg1  =>  Any["2","3"]
  karma  =>  0
  arg2  =>  Any["no_arg_given"]
  opt1  =>  1

On the other hand, if you're running from the REPL... well, first, I'm not
sure that makes much sense.  `ArgParse` is meant for parsing command line
arguments, and it's not possible right now to do that from the REPL:

$ julia

julia> include("argparse_example3.jl")
required argument arg1 was not provided
usage: argparse_example3.jl [--opt1 [OPT1]] [-k] arg1 arg1 [arg2...]
$

The best I could come up with was

$ julia -e 'include("argparse_example3.jl")' -- --opt1 1 2 3
Parsed args:
  arg1  =>  Any["2","3"]
  karma  =>  0
  arg2  =>  Any["no_arg_given"]
  opt1  =>  1

Which is doing essentailly the same thing as the previous example.

(BTW, you might find DocOpt.jl to be a useful substitute.)

Cheers,
   Kevin

Re: [julia-users] ArgParse @add_arg_table not recognized

[Uthsav Chitra]

Hi Kevin,

Sorry I haven't explained this too well. What I want to do is, from the 
REPL, run a program that has a function with @add_arg_table. But initially 
it was spitting out the error I had in my first post, even though I wasn't 
explicitly calling that function.

But I just restarted my Terminal and it works fine now-- that is, if I call 
include("arg.jl"), and arg.jl doesn't call the function with 
@add_arg_table, it doesn't complain-- so I'm not sure what happened.

Thanks for the help! I'll keep the DocOpt suggestion in mind-- I've had my 
fair share of problems with ArgParse.

Re: [julia-users] ArgParse @add_arg_table not recognized

[Uthsav Chitra]

I opened Julia in Terminal, made a file with that text called 'arg.jl', and 
ran

include("arg.jl").

(Not sure how to edit my message) Actually, I ran it how you did and it 
worked fine. But I'm still not sure why it won't run when I use 
include("arg.jl").

[julia-users] ArgParse @add_arg_table not recognized

[Uthsav Chitra]

I'm using Julia v0.3.9 right now. I recently updated all my packages (I 
haven't opened Julia in a couple months), including ArgParse. The macro 
@add_arg_table isn't recognized though. In particular, I tried running 
example code here 
,
 
but I get the following error:

*ERROR: @add_arg_table not defined*

* in include at 
/Applications/Julia-0.3.9.app/Contents/Resources/julia/lib/julia/sys.dylib*

* in include_from_node1 at 
/Applications/Julia-0.3.9.app/Contents/Resources/julia/lib/julia/sys.dylib*

*while loading /Users/Uthsav/Desktop/Walking The Interactome Work/arg.jl, 
in expression starting on line 42*


This is essentially the problem I'm having in my own code. I looked but 
couldn't find any information about this besides what it says on the 
Github, which is that the macro @add_arg_table should still work. Any help 
would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Re: [julia-users] ArgParse @add_arg_table not recognized

Hello Uthsav,

Works for me:

$ julia0.3 argparse_example3.jl --opt1 1 2 3
Parsed args:
  arg1  =>  {"2","3"}
  karma  =>  0
  arg2  =>  {"no_arg_given"}
  opt1  =>  1

How are you trying to run that code?
