All the remaining command-line arguments are gathered - into a list. This is commonly useful for command line utilities that dispatch - to other command line utilities:: - - >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG') - >>> parser.add_argument('--foo') - >>> parser.add_argument('command') - >>> parser.add_argument('args', nargs=argparse.REMAINDER) - >>> print(parser.parse_args('--foo B cmd --arg1 XX ZZ'.split())) - Namespace(args=['--arg1', 'XX', 'ZZ'], command='cmd', foo='B') - If the ``nargs`` keyword argument is not provided, the number of arguments consumed is determined by the action_. Generally this means a single command-line argument will be consumed and a single item (not a list) will be produced. |
