human_readable_name¶

param_type_name = 'argument'¶

Methods Documentation

add_to_parser(parser: OptionParser, ctx: Context) → None¶

consume_value(ctx: Context, opts: Mapping[str, Any]) → Tuple[Any, ParameterSource]¶

get_default(ctx: Context, call: bool = True) → Any | Callable[[], Any] | None¶

Get the default for the parameter. Tries Context.lookup_default() first, then the local default.

Parameters:

ctx – Current context.
call – If the default is a callable, call it. Disable to return the callable instead.

Changed in version 8.0.2: Type casting is no longer performed when getting a default.

Changed in version 8.0.1: Type casting can fail in resilient parsing mode. Invalid defaults will not prevent showing help text.

Changed in version 8.0: Looks at ctx.default_map first.

Changed in version 8.0: Added the call parameter.

get_error_hint(ctx: Context) → str¶: Get a stringified version of the param for use in error messages to indicate which param caused the error.

get_help_record(ctx: Context) → Tuple[str, str] | None¶

get_usage_pieces(ctx: Context) → List[str]¶

handle_parse_result(ctx: Context, opts: Mapping[str, Any], args: List[str]) → Tuple[Any, List[str]]¶

make_metavar() → str¶

Make the metavar for the help menu.

Overrides click.Option.make_metavar. Always adds a space and an ellipsis (’ …’) after the metavar name if the option accepts multiple inputs.

By default click adds an ellipsis without a space between the metavar and the ellipsis, but we prefer a space between.

Returns:

metavarstr: The metavar value.

process_value(ctx: Context, value: Any) → Any¶

resolve_envvar_value(ctx: Context) → str | None¶

shell_complete(ctx: Context, incomplete: str) → List[CompletionItem]¶

Return a list of completions for the incomplete value. If a shell_complete function was given during init, it is used. Otherwise, the type shell_complete() function is used.

Parameters:

ctx – Invocation context for this command.
incomplete – Value being completed. May be empty.

New in version 8.0.

to_info_dict() → Dict[str, Any]¶

Gather information that could be useful for a tool generating user-facing documentation.

Use click.Context.to_info_dict() to traverse the entire CLI structure.

New in version 8.0.

type_cast_value(ctx: Context, value: Any) → Any¶: Convert and validate a value against the option’s type, multiple, and nargs.

value_from_envvar(ctx: Context) → Any | None¶

value_is_missing(value: Any) → bool¶
