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!

 Click_ is another CLI framework.
 
 It support multi-level nested command like git and it has some nice utilities.
 
 I love it's design.

 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?

  I need to develop a python CLI framework.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  For example if i need to set an ip address in linux:
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  ifconfig eth0 172.16.25.125
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  I should be able to use python to do the above.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  1. The user will execute a python script to which i will pass the params 
  eth0 and ip address (something like ifconf.py  eth0 172.16.25.125)
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  2. Within the script i grab the params and do something to the effect of 
  user executing 'ifconfig eth0 172.16.25.125' from the shell.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  3. There are other such commands for which i will be using python scripts. 
  I came across pyCLI, but it doesn't have much documentation, so couldn't 
  figure out how to move forward.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  4. The CLI framework needs to reuse code so i didn't want to use pure 
  python and develop a framework from scratch. Rather use something like 
  pyCLI/CLIFF.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  The problem is lack of documentation with examples on how to use the above.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

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?
