python argparse用法

示例一

创建文件prog.py

import argparse
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument("echo")
args = parser.parse_args()
print(args.echo)

　　执行结果：

$ python3 prog.py
usage: prog.py [-h] echo
prog.py: error: the following arguments are required: echo
$ python3 prog.py --help
usage: prog.py [-h] echo

positional arguments:
  echo

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
$ python3 prog.py foo
foo

示例二

创建文件：prog.py

import argparse
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
