152 Abstract base class for formatting option help. OptionParser
153 instances should use one of the HelpFormatter subclasses for
154 formatting help; by default IndentedHelpFormatter is used.
157 parser : OptionParser
158 the controlling OptionParser instance
159 indent_increment : int
160 the number of columns to indent per nesting level
161 max_help_position : int
162 the maximum starting column for option help text
164 the calculated starting column for option help text;
165 initially the same as the maximum
167 total number of columns for output (pass None to constructor for
168 this value to be taken from the $COLUMNS environment variable)
170 current indentation level
172 current indentation level (in columns)
174 number of columns available for option help text (calculated)
176 text to replace with each option's default value, "%default"
177 by default. Set to false value to disable default value expansion.
178 option_strings : { Option : str }
179 maps Option instances to the snippet of help text explaining
180 the syntax of that option, e.g. "-h, --help" or

183 format string controlling how short options with values are
184 printed in help text. Must be either "%s%s" ("-fFILE") or
185 "%s %s" ("-f FILE"), because those are the two syntaxes that
188 similar but for long options; must be either "%s %s" ("--file FILE")
189 or "%s=%s" ("--file=FILE").

1126 Instance attributes:
1128 a usage string for your program. Before it is displayed
1129 to the user, "%prog" will be expanded to the name of
1130 your program (self.prog or os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])).
1132 the name of the current program (to override
1133 os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])).
1135 paragraph of help text to print after option help
1137 option_groups : [OptionGroup]
1138 list of option groups in this parser (option groups are
1139 irrelevant for parsing the command-line, but very useful
1140 for generating help)
1142 allow_interspersed_args : bool = true
1143 if true, positional arguments may be interspersed with options.
1144 Assuming -a and -b each take a single argument, the command-line
1145 -ablah foo bar -bboo baz
1146 will be interpreted the same as
1147 -ablah -bboo -- foo bar baz
1148 If this flag were false, that command line would be interpreted as
1149 -ablah -- foo bar -bboo baz
1150 -- ie. we stop processing options as soon as we see the first
1151 non-option argument. (This is the tradition followed by
1152 Python's getopt module, Perl's Getopt::Std, and other argument-
1153 parsing libraries, but it is generally annoying to users.)
1155 process_default_values : bool = true
1156 if true, option default values are processed similarly to option
1157 values from the command line: that is, they are passed to the
1158 type-checking function for the option's type (as long as the
1159 default value is a string). (This really only matters if you
1160 have defined custom types; see SF bug #955889.) Set it to false
1161 to restore the behaviour of Optik 1.4.1 and earlier.
1164 the argument list currently being parsed. Only set when
1165 parse_args() is active, and continually trimmed down as
1166 we consume arguments. Mainly there for the benefit of
1169 the list of leftover arguments that we have skipped while
1170 parsing options. If allow_interspersed_args is false, this
1171 list is always empty.
1173 the set of option values currently being accumulated. Only
1174 set when parse_args() is active. Also mainly for callbacks.
1176 Because of the 'rargs', 'largs', and 'values' attributes,
1177 OptionParser is not thread-safe. If, for some perverse reason, you
1178 need to parse command-line arguments simultaneously in different
1179 threads, use different OptionParser instances.
