Convenience functions for working with the cmd stdlib module,
the BaseCommand class for constructing command line programmes,
and other command line related stuff.
*Latest release 20241117*:
* _COMMON_OPT_SPECS: include a --dry-run option, alter for -n.
* SubCommand.usage_text: one line listing for common subcommands.
## <a name="BaseCommand"></a>Class `BaseCommand`
A base class for handling nestable command lines.
This class provides the basic parse and dispatch mechanisms
for command lines.
To implement a command line
one instantiates a subclass of `BaseCommand`:
class MyCommand(BaseCommand):
GETOPT_SPEC = 'ab:c'
USAGE_FORMAT = r"""and provides either a `main` method if the command has no subcommands
or a suite of `cmd_`*subcommand* methods, one per subcommand.
Running a command is done by:
MyCommand(argv).run()
Modules which implement a command line mode generally look like this:
... imports etc ...
def main(argv=None, **run_kw):
""" The command line mode.
"""
return MyCommand(argv).run(**run_kw)
... other code ...
class MyCommand(BaseCommand):
... other code ...
if __name__ == '__main__':
sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
Instances have a `self.options` attribute on which optional
modes are set,
avoiding conflict with the attributes of `self`.
Subclasses with no subcommands
generally just implement a `main(argv)` method.
Subclasses with subcommands
should implement a `cmd_`*subcommand*`(argv)` instance method
for each subcommand.
If a subcommand is itself implemented using `BaseCommand`
then it can be a simple attribute:
cmd_subthing = SubThingCommand
Returning to methods, if there is a paragraph in the method docstring
commencing with `Usage:` then that paragraph is incorporated
into the main usage message automatically.
Example:
def cmd_ls(self, argv):
""" Usage: {cmd} [paths...]
Emit a listing for the named paths.
Further docstring non-usage information here.
"""
... do the "ls" subcommand ...
The subclass is customised by overriding the following methods:
* `apply_opt(opt,val)`:
apply an individual getopt global command line option
to `self.options`.
* `apply_opts(opts)`:
apply the `opts` to `self.options`.
`opts` is an `(option,value)` sequence
as returned by `getopot.getopt`.
The default implementation iterates over these and calls `apply_opt`.
* `run_context()`:
a context manager to provide setup or teardown actions
to occur before and after the command implementation respectively,
such as to open and close a database.
* `cmd_`*subcmd*`(argv)`:
if the command line options are followed by an argument
whose value is *subcmd*,
then the method `cmd_`*subcmd*`(subcmd_argv)`
will be called where `subcmd_argv` contains the command line arguments
following *subcmd*.
* `main(argv)`:
if there are no `cmd_`*subcmd*` methods then method `main(argv)`
will be called where `argv` contains the command line arguments.
Editorial: why not arparse?
Primarily because when incorrectly invoked
an argparse command line prints the help/usage messgae
and aborts the whole programme with `SystemExit`.
But also, I find the whole argparse `add_argument` thing cumbersome.
Usage summary:
Usage: base [common-options...] [-a] [-b bvalue] [-c] [--] arguments...
-a Do it all.
-b But using bvalue.
-c The 'c' option!
"""
...
Subcommands:
help [common-options...] [-l] [subcommand-names...]
Print help for subcommands.
This outputs the full help for the named subcommands,
or the short help for all subcommands if no names are specified.
-l Long help even if no subcommand-names provided.
info [common-options...] [field-names...]
Recite general information.
Explicit field names may be provided to override the default listing.
shell [common-options...]
Run a command prompt via cmd.Cmd using this command's subcommands.
*`BaseCommand.__init__(self, argv=None, *, cmd=None, options=None, **kw_options)`*:
Initialise the command line.
Raises `GetoptError` for unrecognised options.
Parameters:
* `argv`:
optional command line arguments
including the main command name if `cmd` is not specified.
The default is `sys.argv`.
The contents of `argv` are copied,
permitting desctructive parsing of `argv`.
* `cmd`:
optional keyword specifying the command name for context;
if this is not specified it is taken from `argv.pop(0)`.
* `options`:
an optional keyword providing object for command state and context.
If not specified a new `self.Options` instance
is allocated for use as `options`.
The default `Options` class is `BaseCommandOptions`,
a dataclass with some prefilled attributes and properties
to aid use later.
Other keyword arguments are applied to `self.options`
as attributes.
The `cmd` and `argv` parameters have some fiddly semantics for convenience.
There are 3 basic ways to initialise:
* `BaseCommand()`: `argv` comes from `sys.argv`
and the value for `cmd` is derived from `argv[0]`
* `BaseCommand(argv)`: `argv` is the complete command line
including the command name and the value for `cmd` is
derived from `argv[0]`
* `BaseCommand(argv, cmd=foo)`: `argv` is the command
arguments _after_ the command name and `cmd` is set to
`foo`
The command line arguments are parsed according to
the optional `GETOPT_SPEC` class attribute (default `''`).
If `getopt_spec` is not empty
then `apply_opts(opts)` is called
to apply the supplied options to the state
where `opts` is the return from `getopt.getopt(argv,getopt_spec)`.
After the option parse,
if the first command line argument *foo*
has a corresponding method `cmd_`*foo*
then that argument is removed from the start of `argv`
and `self.cmd_`*foo*`(argv,options,cmd=`*foo*`)` is called
and its value returned.
Otherwise `self.main(argv,options)` is called
and its value returned.
If the command implementation requires some setup or teardown
then this may be provided by the `run_context`
context manager method,
called with `cmd=`*subcmd* for subcommands
and with `cmd=None` for `main`.
*`BaseCommand.Options`*
*`BaseCommand.apply_opt(self, opt, val)`*:
Handle an individual global command line option.
This default implementation raises a `RuntimeError`.
It only fires if `getopt` actually gathered arguments
and would imply that a `GETOPT_SPEC` was supplied
without an `apply_opt` or `apply_opts` method to implement the options.
*`BaseCommand.apply_opts(self, opts)`*:
Apply command line options.
Subclasses can override this
but it is usually easier to override `apply_opt(opt,val)`.
*`BaseCommand.apply_preargv(self, argv)`*:
Do any preparsing of `argv` before the subcommand/main-args.
Return the remaining arguments.
This default implementation applies the default options
supported by `self.options` (an instance of `self.Options`
class).
*`BaseCommand.cmd_help(self, argv)`*:
Usage: {cmd} [-l] [subcommand-names...]
Print help for subcommands.
This outputs the full help for the named subcommands,
or the short help for all subcommands if no names are specified.
-l Long help even if no subcommand-names provided.
*`BaseCommand.cmd_info(self, argv, *, field_names=None, skip_names=None)`*:
Usage: {cmd} [field-names...]
Recite general information.
Explicit field names may be provided to override the default listing.
This default method recites the values from `self.options`,
excluding the basic fields from `BaseCommandOptions` other
than `cmd` and `dry_run`.
This base method provides two optional parameters to allow
subclasses to tune its behaviour:
- `field_namees`: an explicit list of options attributes to print
- `skip_names`: a list of option attributes to not print
if `field_names` is not specified; the default is the
field names of `BaseCommandOptions` excepting `cmd` and
`dry_run`
*`BaseCommand.cmd_shell(*a, upd: Optional[cs.upd.Upd] = <function uses_upd.<locals>.<lambda> at 0x1052cf7f0>, **kw)`*:
Usage: {cmd}
Run a command prompt via cmd.Cmd using this command's subcommands.
*`BaseCommand.cmdloop(self, intro=None)`*:
Use `cmd.Cmd` to run a command loop which calls the `cmd_`* methods.
*`BaseCommand.extract_usage(cmd=None)`*:
Extract the `Usage:` paragraph from `cls__doc__` if present.
Return a 2-tuple of `(doc_without_usage,usage_text)`
being the remaining docstring and a full usage message.
*`BaseCommand.getopt_error_handler(cmd, options, e, usage, subcmd=None)`*:
The `getopt_error_handler` method
is used to control the handling of `GetoptError`s raised
during the command line parse
or during the `main` or `cmd_`*subcmd*` calls.
This default handler issues a warning containing the exception text,
prints the usage message to standard error,
and returns `True` to indicate that the error has been handled.
The handler is called with these parameters:
* `cmd`: the command name
* `options`: the `options` object
* `e`: the `GetoptError` exception
* `usage`: the command usage or `None` if this was not provided
* `subcmd`: optional subcommand name;
if not `None`, is the name of the subcommand which caused the error
It returns a true value if the exception is considered handled,
in which case the main `run` method returns 2.
It returns a false value if the exception is considered unhandled,
in which case the main `run` method reraises the `GetoptError`.
To let the exceptions out unhandled
this can be overridden with a method which just returns `False`.
Otherwise,
the handler may perform any suitable action
and return `True` to contain the exception
or `False` to cause the exception to be reraised.
*`BaseCommand.handle_signal(self, sig, frame, *, runstate: Optional[cs.resources.RunState] = <function uses_runstate.<locals>.<lambda> at 0x1052cf0a0>)`*:
The default signal handler, which cancels the default `RunState`.
*`BaseCommand.has_subcommands()`*:
Test whether the class defines additional subcommands.
*`BaseCommand.method_cmdname(method_name: str)`*:
The `cmd` value from a method name.
*`BaseCommand.poparg(argv: List[str], *specs, unpop_on_error: bool = False, opt_spec_class=None)`*:
Pop the leading argument off `argv` and parse it.
Return the parsed argument.
Raises `getopt.GetoptError` on a missing or invalid argument.
This is expected to be used inside a `main` or `cmd_*`
command handler method or inside `apply_preargv`.
You can just use:
value = argv.pop(0)
but this method provides conversion and valuation
and a richer failure mode.
Parameters:
* `argv`: the argument list, which is modified in place with `argv.pop(0)`
* the argument list `argv` may be followed by some help text
and/or an argument parser function.
* `validate`: an optional function to validate the parsed value;
this should return a true value if valid,
or return a false value or raise a `ValueError` if invalid
* `unvalidated_message`: an optional message after `validate`
for values failing the validation
* `unpop_on_error`: optional keyword parameter, default `False`;
if true then push the argument back onto the front of `argv`
if it fails to parse; `GetoptError` is still raised
Typical use inside a `main` or `cmd_*` method might look like:
self.options.word = self.poparg(argv, int, "a count value")
self.options.word = self.poparg(
argv, int, "a count value",
lambda count: count > 0, "count should be positive")
Because it raises `GetoptError` on a bad argument
the normal usage message failure mode follows automatically.
Demonstration:
>>> argv = ['word', '3', 'nine', '4']
>>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, "word to process")
'word'
>>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, int, "count value")
3
>>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, "length")
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
getopt.GetoptError: length 'nine': float('nine'): could not convert string to float: 'nine'
>>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, "width", lambda width: width > 5)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
getopt.GetoptError: width '4': invalid value
>>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, "length")
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
getopt.GetoptError: length: missing argument
>>> argv = ['-5', 'zz']
>>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, "size", lambda size: size > 0, "size should be >0")
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
getopt.GetoptError: size '-5': size should be >0
>>> argv # -5 was still consumed
['zz']
>>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, "size2", unpop_on_error=True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
getopt.GetoptError: size2 'zz': float('zz'): could not convert string to float: 'zz'
>>> argv # zz was pushed back
['zz']
*`BaseCommand.popopts(self, argv, options, **opt_specs)`*:
OBSOLETE popopts
A convenience shim which returns `self.options.popopts(argv,**opt_specs)`.
*`BaseCommand.repl(self, *argv, banner=None, local=None)`*:
Run an interactive Python prompt with some predefined local names.
Aka REPL (Read Evaluate Print Loop).
Parameters:
* `argv`: any notional command line arguments
* `banner`: optional banner string
* `local`: optional local names mapping
The default `local` mapping is a `dict` containing:
* `argv`: from `argv`
* `options`: from `self.options`
* `self`: from `self`
* the attributes of `options`
* the attributes of `self`
This is not presented automatically as a subcommand, but
commands wishing such a command should provide something
like this:
def cmd_repl(self, argv):
""" Usage: {cmd}
Run an interactive Python prompt with some predefined local names.
"""
return self.repl(*argv)
*`BaseCommand.run(self, **kw_options)`*:
Run a command.
Returns the exit status of the command.
May raise `GetoptError` from subcommands.
Any keyword arguments are used to override `self.options` attributes
for the duration of the run,
for example to presupply a shared `Upd` from an outer context.
If the first command line argument *foo*
has a corresponding method `cmd_`*foo*
then that argument is removed from the start of `argv`
and `self.cmd_`*foo*`(cmd=`*foo*`)` is called
and its value returned.
Otherwise `self.main(argv)` is called
and its value returned.
If the command implementation requires some setup or teardown
then this may be provided by the `run_context()`
context manager method.
*`BaseCommand.run_context(*a, upd: Optional[cs.upd.Upd] = <function uses_upd.<locals>.<lambda> at 0x1052cf2e0>, **kw)`*:
The context manager which surrounds `main` or `cmd_`*subcmd*.
Normally this will have a bare `yield`, but you can yield
a not `None` value to exit before the command, for example
if the run setup fails.
This default does several things, and subclasses should
override it like this:
@contextmanager
def run_context(self):
with super().run_context():
try:
... subclass context setup ...
yield
finally:
... any unconditional cleanup ...
This base implementation does the following things:
- provides a `self.options` which is a copy of the original
`self.options` so that it may freely be modified during the
command
- provides a prevailing `RunState` as `self.options.runstate`
if one is not already present
- provides a `cs.upd.Upd` context for status lines
- catches `self.options.runstate_signals` and handles them
with `self.handle_signal`
*`BaseCommand.subcommand`*
*`BaseCommand.subcommand_usage_text(self, subcmd, usage_format_mapping=None, short=False)`*:
Return the usage text for a subcommand.
Parameters:
* `subcmd`: the subcommand name
* `short`: just include the first line of the usage message,
intented for when there are many subcommands
*`BaseCommand.subcommands`*
*`BaseCommand.usage_text(self, *, cmd=None, short=False, show_common=False, show_subcmds=None)`*:
Compute the "Usage:" message for this class
from the top level `USAGE_FORMAT`
and the `'Usage:'`-containing docstrings of its `cmd_*` methods.
Parameters:
* `cmd`: optional command name, default derived from the subcommand
* `short`: default `False`; if true then just provide the opening sentence
* `show_common`: show the `COMMON_OPT_SPECS` usage, default `False`
* `show_subcmds`: constrain the usage to particular subcommands
named in `show_subcmds`; this is used to produce a shorter
usage for subcommand usage failures
## <a name="BaseCommandCmd"></a>Class `BaseCommandCmd(cmd.Cmd)`
A `cmd.Cmd` subclass used to provide interactive use of a
command's subcommands.
The `BaseCommand.cmdloop()` class method instantiates an
instance of this and calls its `.cmdloop()` method
i.e. `cmd.Cmd.cmdloop`.
## <a name="BaseCommandOptions"></a>Class `BaseCommandOptions(cs.threads.HasThreadState)`
A base class for the `BaseCommand` `options` object.
This is the default class for the `self.options` object
available during `BaseCommand.run()`,
and available as the `BaseCommand.Options` attribute.
Any keyword arguments are applied as field updates to the instance.
It comes prefilled with:
* `.dry_run=False`
* `.force=False`
* `.quiet=False`
* `.verbose=False`
and a `.doit` property which is the inverse of `.dry_run`.
It is recommended that if `BaseCommand` subclasses use a
different type for their `Options` that it should be a
subclass of `BaseCommandOptions`.
Since `BaseCommandOptions` is a data class, this typically looks like:
@dataclass
class Options(BaseCommand.Options):
... optional extra fields etc ...
*`BaseCommandOptions.__call__(self, **updates)`*:
Calling the options object returns a context manager whose
value is a shallow copy of the options with any `suboptions` applied.
Example showing the semantics:
>>> from cs.cmdutils import BaseCommandOptions
>>> @dataclass
... class DemoOptions(BaseCommandOptions):
... x: int = 0
...
>>> options = DemoOptions(x=1)
>>> assert options.x == 1
>>> assert not options.verbose
>>> with options(verbose=True) as subopts:
... assert options is not subopts
... assert options.x == 1
... assert not options.verbose
... assert subopts.x == 1
... assert subopts.verbose
...
>>> assert options.x == 1
>>> assert not options.verbose
*`BaseCommandOptions.as_dict(self)`*:
Return the options as a `dict`.
This contains all the public attributes of `self`.
*`BaseCommandOptions.copy(self, **updates)`*:
Return a new instance of `BaseCommandOptions` (well, `type(self)`)
which is a shallow copy of the public attributes from `self.__dict__`.
Any keyword arguments are applied as attribute updates to the copy.
*`BaseCommandOptions.doit`*:
I usually use a `doit` flag, the inverse of `dry_run`.
*`BaseCommandOptions.fields_as_dict(self)`*:
Return the options' fields as a `dict`.
This contains all the field values of `self`.
*`BaseCommandOptions.getopt_spec_map(opt_specs_kw: Mapping)`*:
Return a 3-tuple of (shortopts,longopts,getopt_spec_map)` being:
- `shortopts`: the `getopt()` short options specification string
- `longopts`: the `getopts()` long option specification list
- `getopt_spec_map`: a mapping of `opt`->`OptionSpec`
where `opt` is as from `opt,val` from `getopt()`
and `opt_spec` is the associated `OptionSpec` instance
*`BaseCommandOptions.opt_spec_class`*
*`BaseCommandOptions.perthread_state`*
*`BaseCommandOptions.popopts(self, argv, **opt_specs_kw)`*:
Parse option switches from `argv`, a list of command line strings
with leading option switches and apply them to `self`.
Modify `argv` in place.
Example use in a `BaseCommand` `cmd_foo` method:
def cmd_foo(self, argv):
options = self.options
options.popopts(
c_='config',
l='long',
x='trace',
)
if self.options.dry_run:
print("dry run!")
The expected options are specified by the keyword parameters
in `opt_specs`.
Each keyword name has the following semantics:
* options not starting with a letter may be preceeded by an underscore
to allow use in the parameter list, for example `_1='once'`
for a `-1` option setting the `once` option name
* a single letter name specifies a short option
and a multiletter name specifies a long option
* options requiring an argument have a trailing underscore
* options not requiring an argument normally imply a value
of `True`; if their synonym commences with a dash they will
imply a value of `False`, for example `n='dry_run',y='-dry_run'`.
The `BaseCommand` class provides a `popopts` method
which is a shim for this method applied to its `.options`.
So common use in a command method usually looks like this:
class SomeCommand(BaseCommand):
def cmd_foo(self, argv):
# accept a -j or --jobs options
self.popopts(argv, jobs=1, j='jobs')
print("jobs =", self.options.jobs)
The `self.options` object is preprovided as an instance of
the `self.Options` class, which is `BaseCommandOptions` by
default. There is presupplies support for some basic options
like `-v` for "verbose" and so forth, and a subcommand
need not describe these in a call to `self.options.popopts()`.
Example:
>>> import os.path
>>> from typing import Optional
>>> @dataclass
... class DemoOptions(BaseCommandOptions):
... all: bool = False
... jobs: int = 1
... number: int = 0
... once: bool = False
... path: Optional[str] = None
... trace_exec: bool = False
...
>>> options = DemoOptions()
>>> argv = ['-1', '-v', '-y', '-j4', '--path=/foo', 'bah', '-x']
>>> opt_dict = options.popopts(
... argv,
... _1='once',
... a='all',
... j_=('jobs',int),
... x='-trace_exec',
... y='-dry_run',
... dry_run=None,
... path_=(str, os.path.isabs, 'not an absolute path'),
... verbose=None,
... )
>>> opt_dict
{'once': True, 'verbose': True, 'dry_run': False, 'jobs': 4, 'path': '/foo'}
>>> options # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
DemoOptions(cmd=None, dry_run=False, force=False, quiet=False, runstate_signals=(...), verbose=True, all=False, jobs=4, number=0, once=True, path='/foo', trace_exec=False)
*`BaseCommandOptions.update(self, **updates)`*:
Modify the options in place with the mapping `updates`.
It would be more normal to call the options in a `with` statement
as shown for `__call__`.
## <a name="docmd"></a>`docmd(dofunc)`
Decorator for `cmd.Cmd` subclass methods
to supply some basic quality of service.
This decorator:
- wraps the function call in a `cs.pfx.Pfx` for context
- intercepts `getopt.GetoptError`s, issues a `warning`
and runs `self.do_help` with the method name,
then returns `None`
- intercepts other `Exception`s,
issues an `exception` log message
and returns `None`
The intended use is to decorate `cmd.Cmd` `do_`* methods:
from cmd import Cmd
from cs.cmdutils import docmd
...
class MyCmd(Cmd):
@docmd
def do_something(...):
... do something ...
## <a name="extract_usage_from_doc"></a>`extract_usage_from_doc(doc: Optional[str], usage_marker='Usage:') -> Tuple[Optional[str], str]`
Extract a `"Usage:"`paragraph from a docstring
and return the unindented usage and the docstring with that paragraph elided.
If the usage paragraph is not present, return `(None,doc)`.
## <a name="OptionSpec"></a>Class `OptionSpec`
A class to support parsing an option value.
*`OptionSpec.__post_init__(self)`*:
Infer `field_name` and `help_text` if unspecified.
*`OptionSpec.add_argument(self, parser, options=None)`*:
Add this option to an `argparser`-style option parser.
The optional `options` parameter may be used to supply an
`Options` instance to provide a default value.
*`OptionSpec.from_opt_kw(opt_k: str, specs: Union[str, List, Tuple, NoneType])`*:
Factory to produce an `OptionSpec` from a `(key,specs)` 2-tuple
as from the `items()` from a `popopts()` call.
The `specs` is normally a list or tuple, but a bare string
will be promoted to a 1-element list containing the string.
The elements of `specs` are considered in order for:
- an identifier specifying the `arg_name`,
optionally prepended with a dash to indicate an inverted option
- a help text about the option
- a callable to parse the option string value to obtain the actual value
- a callable to validate the option value
- a message for use when validation fails
*`OptionSpec.getopt_long`*:
The option specification for a getopt long option.
Return `None` if `self.opt_name` is only 1 character.
*`OptionSpec.getopt_opt`*:
The `opt` we expect from `opt,val=getopt(argv,...)`.
*`OptionSpec.getopt_short`*:
The option specification for a getopt short option.
Return `''` if `self.opt_name` is longer than 1 character.
*`OptionSpec.help_text_from_field_name(field_name)`*:
Compute an inferred `help_text` from an option `field_name`.
*`OptionSpec.needs_arg`*:
Whether we expect an argument: we have a `self.arg_name`.
*`OptionSpec.option_terse(self)`*:
Return the `"-x"` or `"--name"` option string (with the arg name if expected).
*`OptionSpec.option_usage(self)`*:
A 2 line usage entry for this option.
Example:
-j jobs
Job limit.
*`OptionSpec.parse_value(self, value)`*:
Parse `value` according to the spec.
Raises `GetoptError` for invalid values.
## <a name="qvprint"></a>`qvprint(*print_a, quiet, verbose, **print_kw)`
Call `print()` if `options.verbose` and not `options.quiet`.
## <a name="SubCommand"></a>Class `SubCommand`
An implementation for a subcommand.
*`SubCommand.__call__(self, argv: List[str])`*:
Run the subcommand.
Parameters:
* `argv`: the command line arguments after the subcommand name
*`SubCommand.default_usage(self)`*:
Return `'{cmd} [options...]'` or `'{cmd} subcommand [options...]'`.
*`SubCommand.get_cmd(self) -> str`*:
Return the `cmd` string for this `SubCommand`,
derived from the subcommand's method name or class name
if `self.cmd` is not set.
*`SubCommand.get_subcmds(self)`*:
Return the names of `self.method`'s subcommands in lexical order.
*`SubCommand.get_subcommands(self)`*:
Return `self.method`'s mapping of subcommand name to `SubCommand`.
*`SubCommand.get_usage_format(self, show_common=False) -> str`*:
Return the usage format string for this subcommand.
*Note*: no leading "Usage:" prefix.
This first tries `self.method.USAGE_FORMAT`, falling back
to deriving it from `obj_docstring(self.method)`.
Usually a subcommand which is another `BaseCommand` instance
will have a `.USAGE_FORMAT` attribute and a subcommand which
is a method will derive the usage from its docstring.
When deriving from the docstring we look for a paragraph
commencing with the string `Usage:` and otherwise fall back
to its first parapgraph.
*`SubCommand.get_usage_keywords(self)`*:
Return a mapping to be used when formatting the usage format string.
*`SubCommand.instance`*:
An instance of the class for `self.method`.

* SubCommand.usage_text: one line listing for common subcommands.
*Release 20241110*:
* Various fixes and enhancements to the usage text generation.
* BaseCommandOptions.COMMON_OPT_SPECS stuff, including inheritance and presentation in usage.
* BaseCommand.run: if self.run_context() yields not None, exit immediately with that value.
* Rationalise and improve OptionSpec.
* Supplant vprint with qvprint which honours quiet and verbose, provide vprint as a shim with a hardwired quiet=False.
* Make cmd_info the default subcommand and make some improvements.
* BaseCommandOptions: new fields_as_dict method, update copy() to start with fields_as_dict, overlay as_dict, overlay updates.

* A heap of small things.
*Release 20241007*:
* BaseCommand: drop __init_subclass__, was doing too much to early.
* BaseCommand.__init__: no cmd and argv[0] ends with ".py" infer cmd from the class name.
* Other minor updates.

"description": "Convenience functions for working with the cmd stdlib module,\nthe BaseCommand class for constructing command line programmes,\nand other command line related stuff.\n\n*Latest release 20241117*:\n* _COMMON_OPT_SPECS: include a --dry-run option, alter for -n.\n* SubCommand.usage_text: one line listing for common subcommands.\n\n## <a name=\"BaseCommand\"></a>Class `BaseCommand`\n\nA base class for handling nestable command lines.\n\nThis class provides the basic parse and dispatch mechanisms\nfor command lines.\nTo implement a command line\none instantiates a subclass of `BaseCommand`:\n\n class MyCommand(BaseCommand):\n GETOPT_SPEC = 'ab:c'\n USAGE_FORMAT = r\"\"\"and provides either a `main` method if the command has no subcommands\nor a suite of `cmd_`*subcommand* methods, one per subcommand.\n\nRunning a command is done by:\n\n MyCommand(argv).run()\n\nModules which implement a command line mode generally look like this:\n\n ... imports etc ...\n def main(argv=None, **run_kw):\n \"\"\" The command line mode.\n \"\"\"\n return MyCommand(argv).run(**run_kw)\n ... other code ...\n class MyCommand(BaseCommand):\n ... other code ...\n if __name__ == '__main__':\n sys.exit(main(sys.argv))\n\nInstances have a `self.options` attribute on which optional\nmodes are set,\navoiding conflict with the attributes of `self`.\n\nSubclasses with no subcommands\ngenerally just implement a `main(argv)` method.\n\nSubclasses with subcommands\nshould implement a `cmd_`*subcommand*`(argv)` instance method\nfor each subcommand.\nIf a subcommand is itself implemented using `BaseCommand`\nthen it can be a simple attribute:\n\n cmd_subthing = SubThingCommand\n\nReturning to methods, if there is a paragraph in the method docstring\ncommencing with `Usage:` then that paragraph is incorporated\ninto the main usage message automatically.\nExample:\n\n def cmd_ls(self, argv):\n \"\"\" Usage: {cmd} [paths...]\n Emit a listing for the named paths.\n\n Further docstring non-usage information here.\n \"\"\"\n ... do the \"ls\" subcommand ...\n\nThe subclass is customised by overriding the following methods:\n* `apply_opt(opt,val)`:\n apply an individual getopt global command line option\n to `self.options`.\n* `apply_opts(opts)`:\n apply the `opts` to `self.options`.\n `opts` is an `(option,value)` sequence\n as returned by `getopot.getopt`.\n The default implementation iterates over these and calls `apply_opt`.\n* `run_context()`:\n a context manager to provide setup or teardown actions\n to occur before and after the command implementation respectively,\n such as to open and close a database.\n* `cmd_`*subcmd*`(argv)`:\n if the command line options are followed by an argument\n whose value is *subcmd*,\n then the method `cmd_`*subcmd*`(subcmd_argv)`\n will be called where `subcmd_argv` contains the command line arguments\n following *subcmd*.\n* `main(argv)`:\n if there are no `cmd_`*subcmd*` methods then method `main(argv)`\n will be called where `argv` contains the command line arguments.\n\nEditorial: why not arparse?\nPrimarily because when incorrectly invoked\nan argparse command line prints the help/usage messgae\nand aborts the whole programme with `SystemExit`.\nBut also, I find the whole argparse `add_argument` thing cumbersome.\n\nUsage summary:\n\n Usage: base [common-options...] [-a] [-b bvalue] [-c] [--] arguments...\n -a Do it all.\n -b But using bvalue.\n -c The 'c' option!\n \"\"\"\n ...\n Subcommands:\n help [common-options...] [-l] [subcommand-names...]\n Print help for subcommands.\n This outputs the full help for the named subcommands,\n or the short help for all subcommands if no names are specified.\n -l Long help even if no subcommand-names provided.\n info [common-options...] [field-names...]\n Recite general information.\n Explicit field names may be provided to override the default listing.\n shell [common-options...]\n Run a command prompt via cmd.Cmd using this command's subcommands.\n\n*`BaseCommand.__init__(self, argv=None, *, cmd=None, options=None, **kw_options)`*:\nInitialise the command line.\nRaises `GetoptError` for unrecognised options.\n\nParameters:\n* `argv`:\n optional command line arguments\n including the main command name if `cmd` is not specified.\n The default is `sys.argv`.\n The contents of `argv` are copied,\n permitting desctructive parsing of `argv`.\n* `cmd`:\n optional keyword specifying the command name for context;\n if this is not specified it is taken from `argv.pop(0)`.\n* `options`:\n an optional keyword providing object for command state and context.\n If not specified a new `self.Options` instance\n is allocated for use as `options`.\n The default `Options` class is `BaseCommandOptions`,\n a dataclass with some prefilled attributes and properties\n to aid use later.\nOther keyword arguments are applied to `self.options`\nas attributes.\n\nThe `cmd` and `argv` parameters have some fiddly semantics for convenience.\nThere are 3 basic ways to initialise:\n* `BaseCommand()`: `argv` comes from `sys.argv`\n and the value for `cmd` is derived from `argv[0]`\n* `BaseCommand(argv)`: `argv` is the complete command line\n including the command name and the value for `cmd` is\n derived from `argv[0]`\n* `BaseCommand(argv, cmd=foo)`: `argv` is the command\n arguments _after_ the command name and `cmd` is set to\n `foo`\n\nThe command line arguments are parsed according to\nthe optional `GETOPT_SPEC` class attribute (default `''`).\nIf `getopt_spec` is not empty\nthen `apply_opts(opts)` is called\nto apply the supplied options to the state\nwhere `opts` is the return from `getopt.getopt(argv,getopt_spec)`.\n\nAfter the option parse,\nif the first command line argument *foo*\nhas a corresponding method `cmd_`*foo*\nthen that argument is removed from the start of `argv`\nand `self.cmd_`*foo*`(argv,options,cmd=`*foo*`)` is called\nand its value returned.\nOtherwise `self.main(argv,options)` is called\nand its value returned.\n\nIf the command implementation requires some setup or teardown\nthen this may be provided by the `run_context`\ncontext manager method,\ncalled with `cmd=`*subcmd* for subcommands\nand with `cmd=None` for `main`.\n\n*`BaseCommand.Options`*\n\n*`BaseCommand.apply_opt(self, opt, val)`*:\nHandle an individual global command line option.\n\nThis default implementation raises a `RuntimeError`.\nIt only fires if `getopt` actually gathered arguments\nand would imply that a `GETOPT_SPEC` was supplied\nwithout an `apply_opt` or `apply_opts` method to implement the options.\n\n*`BaseCommand.apply_opts(self, opts)`*:\nApply command line options.\n\nSubclasses can override this\nbut it is usually easier to override `apply_opt(opt,val)`.\n\n*`BaseCommand.apply_preargv(self, argv)`*:\nDo any preparsing of `argv` before the subcommand/main-args.\nReturn the remaining arguments.\n\nThis default implementation applies the default options\nsupported by `self.options` (an instance of `self.Options`\nclass).\n\n*`BaseCommand.cmd_help(self, argv)`*:\nUsage: {cmd} [-l] [subcommand-names...]\nPrint help for subcommands.\nThis outputs the full help for the named subcommands,\nor the short help for all subcommands if no names are specified.\n-l Long help even if no subcommand-names provided.\n\n*`BaseCommand.cmd_info(self, argv, *, field_names=None, skip_names=None)`*:\nUsage: {cmd} [field-names...]\n Recite general information.\n Explicit field names may be provided to override the default listing.\n\nThis default method recites the values from `self.options`,\nexcluding the basic fields from `BaseCommandOptions` other\nthan `cmd` and `dry_run`.\n\nThis base method provides two optional parameters to allow\nsubclasses to tune its behaviour:\n- `field_namees`: an explicit list of options attributes to print\n- `skip_names`: a list of option attributes to not print\n if `field_names` is not specified; the default is the\n field names of `BaseCommandOptions` excepting `cmd` and\n `dry_run`\n\n*`BaseCommand.cmd_shell(*a, upd: Optional[cs.upd.Upd] = <function uses_upd.<locals>.<lambda> at 0x1052cf7f0>, **kw)`*:\nUsage: {cmd}\nRun a command prompt via cmd.Cmd using this command's subcommands.\n\n*`BaseCommand.cmdloop(self, intro=None)`*:\nUse `cmd.Cmd` to run a command loop which calls the `cmd_`* methods.\n\n*`BaseCommand.extract_usage(cmd=None)`*:\nExtract the `Usage:` paragraph from `cls__doc__` if present.\nReturn a 2-tuple of `(doc_without_usage,usage_text)`\nbeing the remaining docstring and a full usage message.\n\n*`BaseCommand.getopt_error_handler(cmd, options, e, usage, subcmd=None)`*:\nThe `getopt_error_handler` method\nis used to control the handling of `GetoptError`s raised\nduring the command line parse\nor during the `main` or `cmd_`*subcmd*` calls.\n\nThis default handler issues a warning containing the exception text,\nprints the usage message to standard error,\nand returns `True` to indicate that the error has been handled.\n\nThe handler is called with these parameters:\n* `cmd`: the command name\n* `options`: the `options` object\n* `e`: the `GetoptError` exception\n* `usage`: the command usage or `None` if this was not provided\n* `subcmd`: optional subcommand name;\n if not `None`, is the name of the subcommand which caused the error\n\nIt returns a true value if the exception is considered handled,\nin which case the main `run` method returns 2.\nIt returns a false value if the exception is considered unhandled,\nin which case the main `run` method reraises the `GetoptError`.\n\nTo let the exceptions out unhandled\nthis can be overridden with a method which just returns `False`.\n\nOtherwise,\nthe handler may perform any suitable action\nand return `True` to contain the exception\nor `False` to cause the exception to be reraised.\n\n*`BaseCommand.handle_signal(self, sig, frame, *, runstate: Optional[cs.resources.RunState] = <function uses_runstate.<locals>.<lambda> at 0x1052cf0a0>)`*:\nThe default signal handler, which cancels the default `RunState`.\n\n*`BaseCommand.has_subcommands()`*:\nTest whether the class defines additional subcommands.\n\n*`BaseCommand.method_cmdname(method_name: str)`*:\nThe `cmd` value from a method name.\n\n*`BaseCommand.poparg(argv: List[str], *specs, unpop_on_error: bool = False, opt_spec_class=None)`*:\nPop the leading argument off `argv` and parse it.\nReturn the parsed argument.\nRaises `getopt.GetoptError` on a missing or invalid argument.\n\nThis is expected to be used inside a `main` or `cmd_*`\ncommand handler method or inside `apply_preargv`.\n\nYou can just use:\n\n value = argv.pop(0)\n\nbut this method provides conversion and valuation\nand a richer failure mode.\n\nParameters:\n* `argv`: the argument list, which is modified in place with `argv.pop(0)`\n* the argument list `argv` may be followed by some help text\n and/or an argument parser function.\n* `validate`: an optional function to validate the parsed value;\n this should return a true value if valid,\n or return a false value or raise a `ValueError` if invalid\n* `unvalidated_message`: an optional message after `validate`\n for values failing the validation\n* `unpop_on_error`: optional keyword parameter, default `False`;\n if true then push the argument back onto the front of `argv`\n if it fails to parse; `GetoptError` is still raised\n\nTypical use inside a `main` or `cmd_*` method might look like:\n\n self.options.word = self.poparg(argv, int, \"a count value\")\n self.options.word = self.poparg(\n argv, int, \"a count value\",\n lambda count: count > 0, \"count should be positive\")\n\nBecause it raises `GetoptError` on a bad argument\nthe normal usage message failure mode follows automatically.\n\nDemonstration:\n\n >>> argv = ['word', '3', 'nine', '4']\n >>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, \"word to process\")\n 'word'\n >>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, int, \"count value\")\n 3\n >>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, \"length\")\n Traceback (most recent call last):\n ...\n getopt.GetoptError: length 'nine': float('nine'): could not convert string to float: 'nine'\n >>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, \"width\", lambda width: width > 5)\n Traceback (most recent call last):\n ...\n getopt.GetoptError: width '4': invalid value\n >>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, \"length\")\n Traceback (most recent call last):\n ...\n getopt.GetoptError: length: missing argument\n >>> argv = ['-5', 'zz']\n >>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, \"size\", lambda size: size > 0, \"size should be >0\")\n Traceback (most recent call last):\n ...\n getopt.GetoptError: size '-5': size should be >0\n >>> argv # -5 was still consumed\n ['zz']\n >>> BaseCommand.poparg(argv, float, \"size2\", unpop_on_error=True)\n Traceback (most recent call last):\n ...\n getopt.GetoptError: size2 'zz': float('zz'): could not convert string to float: 'zz'\n >>> argv # zz was pushed back\n ['zz']\n\n*`BaseCommand.popopts(self, argv, options, **opt_specs)`*:\nOBSOLETE popopts\n\nA convenience shim which returns `self.options.popopts(argv,**opt_specs)`.\n\n*`BaseCommand.repl(self, *argv, banner=None, local=None)`*:\nRun an interactive Python prompt with some predefined local names.\nAka REPL (Read Evaluate Print Loop).\n\nParameters:\n* `argv`: any notional command line arguments\n* `banner`: optional banner string\n* `local`: optional local names mapping\n\nThe default `local` mapping is a `dict` containing:\n* `argv`: from `argv`\n* `options`: from `self.options`\n* `self`: from `self`\n* the attributes of `options`\n* the attributes of `self`\n\nThis is not presented automatically as a subcommand, but\ncommands wishing such a command should provide something\nlike this:\n\n def cmd_repl(self, argv):\n \"\"\" Usage: {cmd}\n Run an interactive Python prompt with some predefined local names.\n \"\"\"\n return self.repl(*argv)\n\n*`BaseCommand.run(self, **kw_options)`*:\nRun a command.\nReturns the exit status of the command.\nMay raise `GetoptError` from subcommands.\n\nAny keyword arguments are used to override `self.options` attributes\nfor the duration of the run,\nfor example to presupply a shared `Upd` from an outer context.\n\nIf the first command line argument *foo*\nhas a corresponding method `cmd_`*foo*\nthen that argument is removed from the start of `argv`\nand `self.cmd_`*foo*`(cmd=`*foo*`)` is called\nand its value returned.\nOtherwise `self.main(argv)` is called\nand its value returned.\n\nIf the command implementation requires some setup or teardown\nthen this may be provided by the `run_context()`\ncontext manager method.\n\n*`BaseCommand.run_context(*a, upd: Optional[cs.upd.Upd] = <function uses_upd.<locals>.<lambda> at 0x1052cf2e0>, **kw)`*:\nThe context manager which surrounds `main` or `cmd_`*subcmd*.\nNormally this will have a bare `yield`, but you can yield\na not `None` value to exit before the command, for example\nif the run setup fails.\n\nThis default does several things, and subclasses should\noverride it like this:\n\n @contextmanager\n def run_context(self):\n with super().run_context():\n try:\n ... subclass context setup ...\n yield\n finally:\n ... any unconditional cleanup ...\n\nThis base implementation does the following things:\n- provides a `self.options` which is a copy of the original\n `self.options` so that it may freely be modified during the\n command\n- provides a prevailing `RunState` as `self.options.runstate`\n if one is not already present\n- provides a `cs.upd.Upd` context for status lines\n- catches `self.options.runstate_signals` and handles them\n with `self.handle_signal`\n\n*`BaseCommand.subcommand`*\n\n*`BaseCommand.subcommand_usage_text(self, subcmd, usage_format_mapping=None, short=False)`*:\nReturn the usage text for a subcommand.\n\nParameters:\n* `subcmd`: the subcommand name\n* `short`: just include the first line of the usage message,\n intented for when there are many subcommands\n\n*`BaseCommand.subcommands`*\n\n*`BaseCommand.usage_text(self, *, cmd=None, short=False, show_common=False, show_subcmds=None)`*:\nCompute the \"Usage:\" message for this class\nfrom the top level `USAGE_FORMAT`\nand the `'Usage:'`-containing docstrings of its `cmd_*` methods.\n\nParameters:\n* `cmd`: optional command name, default derived from the subcommand\n* `short`: default `False`; if true then just provide the opening sentence\n* `show_common`: show the `COMMON_OPT_SPECS` usage, default `False`\n* `show_subcmds`: constrain the usage to particular subcommands\n named in `show_subcmds`; this is used to produce a shorter\n usage for subcommand usage failures\n\n## <a name=\"BaseCommandCmd\"></a>Class `BaseCommandCmd(cmd.Cmd)`\n\nA `cmd.Cmd` subclass used to provide interactive use of a\ncommand's subcommands.\n\nThe `BaseCommand.cmdloop()` class method instantiates an\ninstance of this and calls its `.cmdloop()` method\ni.e. `cmd.Cmd.cmdloop`.\n\n## <a name=\"BaseCommandOptions\"></a>Class `BaseCommandOptions(cs.threads.HasThreadState)`\n\nA base class for the `BaseCommand` `options` object.\n\nThis is the default class for the `self.options` object\navailable during `BaseCommand.run()`,\nand available as the `BaseCommand.Options` attribute.\n\nAny keyword arguments are applied as field updates to the instance.\n\nIt comes prefilled with:\n* `.dry_run=False`\n* `.force=False`\n* `.quiet=False`\n* `.verbose=False`\nand a `.doit` property which is the inverse of `.dry_run`.\n\nIt is recommended that if `BaseCommand` subclasses use a\ndifferent type for their `Options` that it should be a\nsubclass of `BaseCommandOptions`.\nSince `BaseCommandOptions` is a data class, this typically looks like:\n\n @dataclass\n class Options(BaseCommand.Options):\n ... optional extra fields etc ...\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.__call__(self, **updates)`*:\nCalling the options object returns a context manager whose\nvalue is a shallow copy of the options with any `suboptions` applied.\n\nExample showing the semantics:\n\n >>> from cs.cmdutils import BaseCommandOptions\n >>> @dataclass\n ... class DemoOptions(BaseCommandOptions):\n ... x: int = 0\n ...\n >>> options = DemoOptions(x=1)\n >>> assert options.x == 1\n >>> assert not options.verbose\n >>> with options(verbose=True) as subopts:\n ... assert options is not subopts\n ... assert options.x == 1\n ... assert not options.verbose\n ... assert subopts.x == 1\n ... assert subopts.verbose\n ...\n >>> assert options.x == 1\n >>> assert not options.verbose\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.as_dict(self)`*:\nReturn the options as a `dict`.\nThis contains all the public attributes of `self`.\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.copy(self, **updates)`*:\nReturn a new instance of `BaseCommandOptions` (well, `type(self)`)\nwhich is a shallow copy of the public attributes from `self.__dict__`.\n\nAny keyword arguments are applied as attribute updates to the copy.\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.doit`*:\nI usually use a `doit` flag, the inverse of `dry_run`.\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.fields_as_dict(self)`*:\nReturn the options' fields as a `dict`.\nThis contains all the field values of `self`.\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.getopt_spec_map(opt_specs_kw: Mapping)`*:\nReturn a 3-tuple of (shortopts,longopts,getopt_spec_map)` being:\n- `shortopts`: the `getopt()` short options specification string\n- `longopts`: the `getopts()` long option specification list\n- `getopt_spec_map`: a mapping of `opt`->`OptionSpec`\n where `opt` is as from `opt,val` from `getopt()`\n and `opt_spec` is the associated `OptionSpec` instance\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.opt_spec_class`*\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.perthread_state`*\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.popopts(self, argv, **opt_specs_kw)`*:\nParse option switches from `argv`, a list of command line strings\nwith leading option switches and apply them to `self`.\nModify `argv` in place.\n\nExample use in a `BaseCommand` `cmd_foo` method:\n\n def cmd_foo(self, argv):\n options = self.options\n options.popopts(\n c_='config',\n l='long',\n x='trace',\n )\n if self.options.dry_run:\n print(\"dry run!\")\n\nThe expected options are specified by the keyword parameters\nin `opt_specs`.\nEach keyword name has the following semantics:\n* options not starting with a letter may be preceeded by an underscore\n to allow use in the parameter list, for example `_1='once'`\n for a `-1` option setting the `once` option name\n* a single letter name specifies a short option\n and a multiletter name specifies a long option\n* options requiring an argument have a trailing underscore\n* options not requiring an argument normally imply a value\n of `True`; if their synonym commences with a dash they will\n imply a value of `False`, for example `n='dry_run',y='-dry_run'`.\n\nThe `BaseCommand` class provides a `popopts` method\nwhich is a shim for this method applied to its `.options`.\nSo common use in a command method usually looks like this:\n\n class SomeCommand(BaseCommand):\n\n def cmd_foo(self, argv):\n # accept a -j or --jobs options\n self.popopts(argv, jobs=1, j='jobs')\n print(\"jobs =\", self.options.jobs)\n\nThe `self.options` object is preprovided as an instance of\nthe `self.Options` class, which is `BaseCommandOptions` by\ndefault. There is presupplies support for some basic options\nlike `-v` for \"verbose\" and so forth, and a subcommand\nneed not describe these in a call to `self.options.popopts()`.\n\nExample:\n\n >>> import os.path\n >>> from typing import Optional\n >>> @dataclass\n ... class DemoOptions(BaseCommandOptions):\n ... all: bool = False\n ... jobs: int = 1\n ... number: int = 0\n ... once: bool = False\n ... path: Optional[str] = None\n ... trace_exec: bool = False\n ...\n >>> options = DemoOptions()\n >>> argv = ['-1', '-v', '-y', '-j4', '--path=/foo', 'bah', '-x']\n >>> opt_dict = options.popopts(\n ... argv,\n ... _1='once',\n ... a='all',\n ... j_=('jobs',int),\n ... x='-trace_exec',\n ... y='-dry_run',\n ... dry_run=None,\n ... path_=(str, os.path.isabs, 'not an absolute path'),\n ... verbose=None,\n ... )\n >>> opt_dict\n {'once': True, 'verbose': True, 'dry_run': False, 'jobs': 4, 'path': '/foo'}\n >>> options # doctest: +ELLIPSIS\n DemoOptions(cmd=None, dry_run=False, force=False, quiet=False, runstate_signals=(...), verbose=True, all=False, jobs=4, number=0, once=True, path='/foo', trace_exec=False)\n\n*`BaseCommandOptions.update(self, **updates)`*:\nModify the options in place with the mapping `updates`.\nIt would be more normal to call the options in a `with` statement\nas shown for `__call__`.\n\n## <a name=\"docmd\"></a>`docmd(dofunc)`\n\nDecorator for `cmd.Cmd` subclass methods\nto supply some basic quality of service.\n\nThis decorator:\n- wraps the function call in a `cs.pfx.Pfx` for context\n- intercepts `getopt.GetoptError`s, issues a `warning`\n and runs `self.do_help` with the method name,\n then returns `None`\n- intercepts other `Exception`s,\n issues an `exception` log message\n and returns `None`\n\nThe intended use is to decorate `cmd.Cmd` `do_`* methods:\n\n from cmd import Cmd\n from cs.cmdutils import docmd\n ...\n class MyCmd(Cmd):\n @docmd\n def do_something(...):\n ... do something ...\n\n## <a name=\"extract_usage_from_doc\"></a>`extract_usage_from_doc(doc: Optional[str], usage_marker='Usage:') -> Tuple[Optional[str], str]`\n\nExtract a `\"Usage:\"`paragraph from a docstring\nand return the unindented usage and the docstring with that paragraph elided.\n\nIf the usage paragraph is not present, return `(None,doc)`.\n\n## <a name=\"OptionSpec\"></a>Class `OptionSpec`\n\nA class to support parsing an option value.\n\n*`OptionSpec.__post_init__(self)`*:\nInfer `field_name` and `help_text` if unspecified.\n\n*`OptionSpec.add_argument(self, parser, options=None)`*:\nAdd this option to an `argparser`-style option parser.\nThe optional `options` parameter may be used to supply an\n`Options` instance to provide a default value.\n\n*`OptionSpec.from_opt_kw(opt_k: str, specs: Union[str, List, Tuple, NoneType])`*:\nFactory to produce an `OptionSpec` from a `(key,specs)` 2-tuple\nas from the `items()` from a `popopts()` call.\n\nThe `specs` is normally a list or tuple, but a bare string\nwill be promoted to a 1-element list containing the string.\n\nThe elements of `specs` are considered in order for:\n- an identifier specifying the `arg_name`,\n optionally prepended with a dash to indicate an inverted option\n- a help text about the option\n- a callable to parse the option string value to obtain the actual value\n- a callable to validate the option value\n- a message for use when validation fails\n\n*`OptionSpec.getopt_long`*:\nThe option specification for a getopt long option.\nReturn `None` if `self.opt_name` is only 1 character.\n\n*`OptionSpec.getopt_opt`*:\nThe `opt` we expect from `opt,val=getopt(argv,...)`.\n\n*`OptionSpec.getopt_short`*:\nThe option specification for a getopt short option.\nReturn `''` if `self.opt_name` is longer than 1 character.\n\n*`OptionSpec.help_text_from_field_name(field_name)`*:\nCompute an inferred `help_text` from an option `field_name`.\n\n*`OptionSpec.needs_arg`*:\nWhether we expect an argument: we have a `self.arg_name`.\n\n*`OptionSpec.option_terse(self)`*:\nReturn the `\"-x\"` or `\"--name\"` option string (with the arg name if expected).\n\n*`OptionSpec.option_usage(self)`*:\nA 2 line usage entry for this option.\nExample:\n\n -j jobs\n Job limit.\n\n*`OptionSpec.parse_value(self, value)`*:\nParse `value` according to the spec.\nRaises `GetoptError` for invalid values.\n\n## <a name=\"qvprint\"></a>`qvprint(*print_a, quiet, verbose, **print_kw)`\n\nCall `print()` if `options.verbose` and not `options.quiet`.\n\n## <a name=\"SubCommand\"></a>Class `SubCommand`\n\nAn implementation for a subcommand.\n\n*`SubCommand.__call__(self, argv: List[str])`*:\nRun the subcommand.\n\nParameters:\n* `argv`: the command line arguments after the subcommand name\n\n*`SubCommand.default_usage(self)`*:\nReturn `'{cmd} [options...]'` or `'{cmd} subcommand [options...]'`.\n\n*`SubCommand.get_cmd(self) -> str`*:\nReturn the `cmd` string for this `SubCommand`,\nderived from the subcommand's method name or class name\nif `self.cmd` is not set.\n\n*`SubCommand.get_subcmds(self)`*:\nReturn the names of `self.method`'s subcommands in lexical order.\n\n*`SubCommand.get_subcommands(self)`*:\nReturn `self.method`'s mapping of subcommand name to `SubCommand`.\n\n*`SubCommand.get_usage_format(self, show_common=False) -> str`*:\nReturn the usage format string for this subcommand.\n*Note*: no leading \"Usage:\" prefix.\n\nThis first tries `self.method.USAGE_FORMAT`, falling back\nto deriving it from `obj_docstring(self.method)`.\nUsually a subcommand which is another `BaseCommand` instance\nwill have a `.USAGE_FORMAT` attribute and a subcommand which\nis a method will derive the usage from its docstring.\n\nWhen deriving from the docstring we look for a paragraph\ncommencing with the string `Usage:` and otherwise fall back\nto its first parapgraph.\n\n*`SubCommand.get_usage_keywords(self)`*:\nReturn a mapping to be used when formatting the usage format string.\n\n*`SubCommand.instance`*:\nAn instance of the class for `self.method`.\n\n*`SubCommand.usage_text(self, *, cmd=None, short: bool, recurse: bool = False, show_common: bool = False, show_subcmds: Union[bool, str, List[str], NoneType] = None, usage_mapping: Optional[Mapping] = None, seen_subcommands: Optional[Mapping] = None) -> str`*:\nReturn the filled out usage text for this subcommand.\n\n## <a name=\"vprint\"></a>`vprint(*print_a, **qvprint_kw)`\n\nCall `print()` if `options.verbose`.\nThis is a compatibility shim for `qvprint()` with `quiet=False`.\n\n# Release Log\n\n\n\n*Release 20241117*:\n* _COMMON_OPT_SPECS: include a --dry-run option, alter for -n.\n* SubCommand.usage_text: one line listing for common subcommands.\n\n*Release 20241110*:\n* Various fixes and enhancements to the usage text generation.\n*

and improve OptionSpec.\n* Supplant vprint with qvprint which honours quiet and verbose, provide vprint as a shim with a hardwired quiet=False.\n* Make cmd_info the default subcommand and make some improvements.\n* BaseCommandOptions: new fields_as_dict method, update copy() to start with fields_as_dict, overlay as_dict, overlay updates.\n* OptionSpec: new add_argument(parser[,options]) method

too much to early.\n* BaseCommand.__init__: no cmd and argv[0] ends with \".py\" infer cmd from the class name.\n* Other minor updates.\n\n*Release 20241005*:\n* BaseCommand: provide an options.runstate to allow the command to override the default (almost never happens).\n* BaseCommand.popopts: fix reference to OptionSpec class.\n* BaseCommand.run: put the try/except:CancellationError outside the self.run_context context manager call, as it can directly raise CancellationError.\n* New vprint() function calling print() if options.verbose.\n\n*Release

`BaseCommand.__init_subclass__`.\n\n*Release 20240630*:\n* BaseCommand: make SUBCOMMAND_ARGV_DEFAULT be 'shell' for an interactive prompt, still a little unsure how sensible this is, aiming at the very cool submode stuff from the Cisco switch config command line.\n* BaseCommandOptions: new as_dict() method.\n* New SubCommand.usage_text() to compose the full usage text for this SubCommand.\n* Many small improvements and internal refactors.\n\n*Release 20240519*:\nBaseCommand.run_context: attach the runstate to the options.\n\n*Release 20240422*:\n* BaseCommandOptions.popopts: return the

subcommand-specific defaults onto the options ahead of the local popopts() call.\n\n*Release 20240412*:\n* BaseCommand.run_context: do not store .upd and .runstate on the options (it confuses options in subcommands and we have @uses_runstate and @uses_upd forthis anyway these days).\n* BaseCommand.run_context: catch SIGQUIT, present the default handler as BaseCommand.handle_signal.\n\n*Release 20240316*:\n* New @uses_cmd_options decorator to provide an \"options\" parameter being the prevailing BaseCommandOptions instance.\n* BaseCommandOptions.popopts: get common options from

directly.\n* BaseCommand: move the run() options stuff into run_context() and have it work on a copy of the original options.\n* BaseCommandCmd: implement get_names(), provide docstrings for the do_* attributes, thus help.\n* BaseCommand.run_context: make runstate and upd keyword only parameters.\n\n*Release 20240201*:\n* BaseCommand.run: catch CancellationError and return 1.\n* BaseCommandCmd.__getattr__: recognise EOF, exit and quit to terminate the cmdloop.\n\n*Release 20231129*:\nBaseCommandOptions: define a runstate field.\n\n*Release 20230703*:\nSmall internal changes.\n\n*Release 20230612*:\n* BaseCommand.cmdloop: fix intro parameter.\n* Other small fixes.\n\n*Release 20230407*:\n* BaseCommand: use @uses_runstate when preparing the command, store as

before initiating the Options instance.\n\n*Release 20230212*:\n* BaseCommand.run_context: update RunState support.\n* BaseCommand.run_context: always be having an self.options.upd.\n\n*Release 20230211*:\nBaseCommand: new shell() method to present an interactive Python prompt for use by subclasses cmd_shell method if desired.\n\n*Release 20221228*:\nMove a lot of the context logic from BaseCommand.run to BaseCommand.run_context, which now must be correctly overridden in subclasses.\n\n*Release 20220918*:\n* BaseCommand.run_context: expand default signals to include SIGHUP, expose as

BaseCommand.poparg: new unpop_on_error=False parameter to support pushing a bad argument back onto the front of the argument list.\n\n*Release 20220606*:\nBaseCommand.run: remove the Upd bodge, too annoying, now fixed in cs.upd I believe.\n\n*Release 20220605*:\n* BaseCommand: new popopts(argv,...) compact getopt wrapper.\n* BaseCommand: new poparg(argv,...) compact validating argument consumer.\n* BaseCommand: drop run_argv, provided no utility.\n* BaseCommand.run: get the RunState signal list from self.options.runstate_signals.\n* BaseCommand.apply_opts: support multiple individual options raising GetoptError, as I hate commands which abort at the first bad option.\n* Assorted other small things.\n\n*Release 20220429*:\n* BaseCommand: fold dots in argv[0] into underscores, supports subcommands like \"setup.py\".\n* BaseCommand: new popargv(argv[,help_text[,parse[,validate[,unvalidated_message]]]]) helper class method.\n* BaseCommand: accept dashed-form of the underscored_form subcommand name.\n* BaseCommand: new self.options.runstate_signals=SIGINT,SIGTERM specifying singals to catch-and-cancel, shuffle run() context managers.\n\n*Release
