split_commas

lsst.daf.butler.cli.utils.split_commas(context, param, values)

Process a tuple of values, where each value may contain comma-separated values, and return a single list of all the passed-in values.

This function can be passed to the ‘callback’ argument of a click.option to allow it to process comma-separated values (e.g. “–my-opt a,b,c”).

Parameters:
context : click.Context or None

The current execution context. Unused, but Click always passes it to callbacks.

param : click.core.Option or None

The parameter being handled. Unused, but Click always passes it to callbacks.

values : [str]

All the values passed for this option. Strings may contain commas, which will be treated as delimiters for separate values.

Returns:
list of string

The passed in values separated by commas and combined into a single list.
