class OptionEatAll[source]#

Bases: Option

Attributes

human_readable_name

Returns the human readable name of this parameter.

param_type_name

__init__(*args, **kwargs)[source]#

Methods

__init__(*args, **kwargs)

add_to_parser(parser, ctx)

consume_value(ctx, opts)

get_default(ctx[, call])

Get the default for the parameter.

get_error_hint(ctx)

Get a stringified version of the param for use in error messages to indicate which param caused the error.

get_help_record(ctx)

get_usage_pieces(ctx)

handle_parse_result(ctx, opts, args)

make_metavar()

process_value(ctx, value)

prompt_for_value(ctx)

This is an alternative flow that can be activated in the full value processing if a value does not exist.

resolve_envvar_value(ctx)

shell_complete(ctx, incomplete)

Return a list of completions for the incomplete value.

to_info_dict()

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

type_cast_value(ctx, value)

Convert and validate a value against the option's type, multiple, and nargs.

value_from_envvar(ctx)

value_is_missing(value)

__init__(*args, **kwargs)[source]#
add_to_parser(parser, ctx)[source]#
consume_value(ctx: Context, opts: Mapping[str, Parameter]) Tuple[Any, ParameterSource]#
Parameters:
  • ctx (Context) –

  • opts (Mapping[str, Parameter]) –

Return type:

Tuple[Any, ParameterSource]

get_default(ctx: Context, call: bool = True) Optional[Union[Any, Callable[[], Any]]]#

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

Parameters:
  • ctx (Context) – Current context.

  • call (bool) – If the default is a callable, call it. Disable to return the callable instead.

Return type:

Optional[Union[Any, Callable[[], Any]]]

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.

Parameters:

ctx (Context) –

str

get_help_record(ctx: Context) Optional[Tuple[str, str]]#
Parameters:

ctx (Context) –

Return type:

Optional[Tuple[str, str]]

get_usage_pieces(ctx: Context) List[str]#
Parameters:

ctx (Context) –

Return type:

List[str]

handle_parse_result(ctx: Context, opts: Mapping[str, Any], args: List[str]) Tuple[Any, List[str]]#
Parameters:
Return type:

Tuple[Any, List[str]]

make_metavar() str#
Return type:

str

process_value(ctx: Context, value: Any) Any#
Parameters:
  • ctx (Context) –

  • value (Any) –

Return type:

Any

prompt_for_value(ctx: Context) Any#

This is an alternative flow that can be activated in the full value processing if a value does not exist. It will prompt the user until a valid value exists and then returns the processed value as result.

Parameters:

ctx (Context) –

Return type:

Any

resolve_envvar_value(ctx: Context) Optional[str]#
Parameters:

ctx (Context) –

Return type:

Optional[str]

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 (Context) – Invocation context for this command.

  • incomplete (str) – Value being completed. May be empty.

Return type:

List[CompletionItem]

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.

Return type:

Dict[str, Any]

type_cast_value(ctx: Context, value: Any) Any#

Convert and validate a value against the option’s type, multiple, and nargs.

Parameters:
  • ctx (Context) –

  • value (Any) –

Return type:

Any

value_from_envvar(ctx: Context) Optional[Any]#
Parameters:

ctx (Context) –

Return type:

Optional[Any]

value_is_missing(value: Any) bool#
Parameters:

value (Any) –

Return type:

bool

property human_readable_name: str#

Returns the human readable name of this parameter. This is the same as the name for options, but the metavar for arguments.

param_type_name = 'option'#
