New submission from Virgil Dupras <hs...@hardcoded.net>: Currently, there is no (documented) way to easily extract arguments in an argparse Namespace as a dictionary. This way, it would me easy to interface a function taking a lot of kwargs like this:
>>> args = parser.parse_args() >>> my_function(**dict(args)) There's "_get_kwargs()" but it's a private undocumented method. I guess that making it public would be problematic because of the namespace pollution that would occur. That's why I'm proposing to make it iterable. If it isn't rejected, I'd gladly work on the required patch. ---------- components: Library (Lib) keywords: easy messages: 127582 nosy: vdupras priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Iterable argparse Namespace type: feature request versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11076> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
