Greetings, one and all.
I am experimenting with module argparse.
I would be glad to know of your opinions about this concern.
Notice dest="class".
Python software
---------------
from argparse import ArgumentParser
parser = ArgumentParser(description="Slixfeed OSTN news service setup.")
parser.add_argument(
"--class",
choices=["address", "hostname", "tld"],
dest="class")
args = parser.parse_args()
breakpoint()
Execute the software
--------------------
-> breakpoint()
(Pdb) args.class
*** SyntaxError: invalid syntax
(Pdb)
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,
