+"""This module is used to define and parse command line flags. |
+ |
+This module defines a *distributed* flag-definition policy: rather than |
+an application having to define all flags in or near main(), each python |
+module defines flags that are useful to it. When one python module |
+imports another, it gains access to the other's flags. (This is |
+implemented by having all modules share a common, global registry object |
+containing all the flag information.) |
+ |
+Flags are defined through the use of one of the DEFINE_xxx functions. |
+The specific function used determines how the flag is parsed, checked, |
+and optionally type-converted, when it's seen on the command line. |
+ |
+ |
+IMPLEMENTATION: DEFINE_* creates a 'Flag' object and registers it with a |
+'FlagValues' object (typically the global FlagValues FLAGS, defined |
+here). The 'FlagValues' object can scan the command line arguments and |
+pass flag arguments to the corresponding 'Flag' objects for |
+value-checking and type conversion. The converted flag values are |
+available as attributes of the 'FlagValues' object. |
+ |
+Code can access the flag through a FlagValues object, for instance |
+gflags.FLAGS.myflag. Typically, the __main__ module passes the |
+command line arguments to gflags.FLAGS for parsing. |
+ |
+At bottom, this module calls getopt(), so getopt functionality is |
+supported, including short- and long-style flags, and the use of -- to |
+terminate flags. |
+ |
+Methods defined by the flag module will throw 'FlagsError' exceptions. |
+The exception argument will be a human-readable string. |
+ |
+ |
+FLAG TYPES: This is a list of the DEFINE_*'s that you can do. All flags |
+take a name, default value, help-string, and optional 'short' name |
+(one-letter name). Some flags have other arguments, which are described |
+with the flag. |
+ |
+DEFINE_string: takes any input, and interprets it as a string. |
+ |
+DEFINE_bool or |
+DEFINE_boolean: typically does not take an argument: say --myflag to |
+ set FLAGS.myflag to true, or --nomyflag to set |
+ FLAGS.myflag to false. Alternately, you can say |
+ --myflag=true or --myflag=t or --myflag=1 or |
+ --myflag=false or --myflag=f or --myflag=0 |
+ |
+DEFINE_float: takes an input and interprets it as a floating point |
+ number. Takes optional args lower_bound and upper_bound; |
+ if the number specified on the command line is out of |
+ range, it will raise a FlagError. |
+ |
+DEFINE_integer: takes an input and interprets it as an integer. Takes |
+ optional args lower_bound and upper_bound as for floats. |
+ |
+DEFINE_enum: takes a list of strings which represents legal values. If |
+ the command-line value is not in this list, raise a flag |
+ error. Otherwise, assign to FLAGS.flag as a string. |
+ |
+DEFINE_list: Takes a comma-separated list of strings on the commandline. |
+ Stores them in a python list object. |
+ |
+DEFINE_spaceseplist: Takes a space-separated list of strings on the |
+ commandline. Stores them in a python list object. |
+ Example: --myspacesepflag "foo bar baz" |
+ |
+DEFINE_multistring: The same as DEFINE_string, except the flag can be |
+ specified more than once on the commandline. The |
+ result is a python list object (list of strings), |
+ even if the flag is only on the command line once. |
+ |
+DEFINE_multi_int: The same as DEFINE_integer, except the flag can be |
+ specified more than once on the commandline. The |
+ result is a python list object (list of ints), even if |
+ the flag is only on the command line once. |
+ |
+ |
+SPECIAL FLAGS: There are a few flags that have special meaning: |
+ --help prints a list of all the flags in a human-readable fashion |
+ --helpshort prints a list of all key flags (see below). |
+ --helpxml prints a list of all flags, in XML format. DO NOT parse |
+ the output of --help and --helpshort. Instead, parse |
+ the output of --helpxml. As we add new flags, we may |
+ add new XML elements. Hence, make sure your parser |
+ does not crash when it encounters new XML elements. |
+ --flagfile=foo read flags from foo. |
+ --undefok=f1,f2 ignore unrecognized option errors for f1,f2. |
+ For boolean flags, you should use --undefok=boolflag, and |
+ --boolflag and --noboolflag will be accepted. Do not use |
+ --undefok=noboolflag. |
+ -- as in getopt(), terminates flag-processing |
+ |
+ |
+NOTE ON --flagfile: |
+ |
+Flags may be loaded from text files in addition to being specified on |
+the commandline. |
+ |
+Any flags you don't feel like typing, throw them in a file, one flag per |
+line, for instance: |
+ --myflag=myvalue |
+ --nomyboolean_flag |
+You then specify your file with the special flag '--flagfile=somefile'. |
+You CAN recursively nest flagfile= tokens OR use multiple files on the |
+command line. Lines beginning with a single hash '#' or a double slash |
+'//' are comments in your flagfile. |
+ |
+Any flagfile=<file> will be interpreted as having a relative path from |
+the current working directory rather than from the place the file was |
+included from: |
+ myPythonScript.py --flagfile=config/somefile.cfg |
+ |
+If somefile.cfg includes further --flagfile= directives, these will be |
+referenced relative to the original CWD, not from the directory the |
+including flagfile was found in! |
+ |
+The caveat applies to people who are including a series of nested files |
+in a different dir than they are executing out of. Relative path names |
+are always from CWD, not from the directory of the parent include |
+flagfile. We do now support '~' expanded directory names. |
+ |
+Absolute path names ALWAYS work! |
+ |
+ |
+EXAMPLE USAGE: |
+ |
+ import gflags |
+ FLAGS = gflags.FLAGS |
+ |
+ # Flag names are globally defined! So in general, we need to be |
+ # careful to pick names that are unlikely to be used by other libraries. |
+ # If there is a conflict, we'll get an error at import time. |
+ gflags.DEFINE_string('name', 'Mr. President', 'your name') |
+ gflags.DEFINE_integer('age', None, 'your age in years', lower_bound=0) |
+ gflags.DEFINE_boolean('debug', False, 'produces debugging output') |
+ gflags.DEFINE_enum('gender', 'male', ['male', 'female'], 'your gender') |
+ |
+ def main(argv): |
+ try: |
+ argv = FLAGS(argv) # parse flags |
+ except gflags.FlagsError, e: |
+ print '%s\\nUsage: %s ARGS\\n%s' % (e, sys.argv[0], FLAGS) |
+ sys.exit(1) |
+ if FLAGS.debug: print 'non-flag arguments:', argv |
+ print 'Happy Birthday', FLAGS.name |
+ if FLAGS.age is not None: |
+ print 'You are a %s, who is %d years old' % (FLAGS.gender, FLAGS.age) |
+ |
+ if __name__ == '__main__': |
+ main(sys.argv) |
+ |
+ |
+KEY FLAGS: |
+ |
+As we already explained, each module gains access to all flags defined |
+by all the other modules it transitively imports. In the case of |
+non-trivial scripts, this means a lot of flags ... For documentation |
+purposes, it is good to identify the flags that are key (i.e., really |
+important) to a module. Clearly, the concept of "key flag" is a |
+subjective one. When trying to determine whether a flag is key to a |
+module or not, assume that you are trying to explain your module to a |
+potential user: which flags would you really like to mention first? |
+ |
+We'll describe shortly how to declare which flags are key to a module. |
+For the moment, assume we know the set of key flags for each module. |
+Then, if you use the app.py module, you can use the --helpshort flag to |
+print only the help for the flags that are key to the main module, in a |
+human-readable format. |
+ |
+NOTE: If you need to parse the flag help, do NOT use the output of |
+--help / --helpshort. That output is meant for human consumption, and |
+may be changed in the future. Instead, use --helpxml; flags that are |
+key for the main module are marked there with a <key>yes</key> element. |
+ |
+The set of key flags for a module M is composed of: |
+ |
+1. Flags defined by module M by calling a DEFINE_* function. |
+ |
+2. Flags that module M explictly declares as key by using the function |
+ |
+ DECLARE_key_flag(<flag_name>) |
+ |
+3. Key flags of other modules that M specifies by using the function |
+ |
+ ADOPT_module_key_flags(<other_module>) |
+ |
+ This is a "bulk" declaration of key flags: each flag that is key for |
+ <other_module> becomes key for the current module too. |
+ |
+Notice that if you do not use the functions described at points 2 and 3 |
+above, then --helpshort prints information only about the flags defined |
+by the main module of our script. In many cases, this behavior is good |
+enough. But if you move part of the main module code (together with the |
+related flags) into a different module, then it is nice to use |
+DECLARE_key_flag / ADOPT_module_key_flags and make sure --helpshort |
+lists all relevant flags (otherwise, your code refactoring may confuse |
+your users). |
+ |
+Note: each of DECLARE_key_flag / ADOPT_module_key_flags has its own |
+pluses and minuses: DECLARE_key_flag is more targeted and may lead a |
+more focused --helpshort documentation. ADOPT_module_key_flags is good |
+for cases when an entire module is considered key to the current script. |
+Also, it does not require updates to client scripts when a new flag is |
+added to the module. |
+ |
+ |
+EXAMPLE USAGE 2 (WITH KEY FLAGS): |
+ |
+Consider an application that contains the following three files (two |
+auxiliary modules and a main module): |
+ |
+File libfoo.py: |
+ |
+ import gflags |
+ |
+ gflags.DEFINE_integer('num_replicas', 3, 'Number of replicas to start') |
+ gflags.DEFINE_boolean('rpc2', True, 'Turn on the usage of RPC2.') |
+ |
+ ... some code ... |
+ |
+File libbar.py: |
+ |
+ import gflags |
+ |
+ gflags.DEFINE_string('bar_gfs_path', '/gfs/path', |
+ 'Path to the GFS files for libbar.') |
+ gflags.DEFINE_string('email_for_bar_errors', 'bar-team@google.com', |
+ 'Email address for bug reports about module libbar.') |
+ gflags.DEFINE_boolean('bar_risky_hack', False, |
+ 'Turn on an experimental and buggy optimization.') |
+ |
+ ... some code ... |
+ |
+File myscript.py: |
+ |
+ import gflags |
+ import libfoo |
+ import libbar |
+ |
+ gflags.DEFINE_integer('num_iterations', 0, 'Number of iterations.') |
+ |
+ # Declare that all flags that are key for libfoo are |
+ # key for this module too. |
+ gflags.ADOPT_module_key_flags(libfoo) |
+ |
+ # Declare that the flag --bar_gfs_path (defined in libbar) is key |
+ # for this module. |
+ gflags.DECLARE_key_flag('bar_gfs_path') |
+ |
+ ... some code ... |
+ |
+When myscript is invoked with the flag --helpshort, the resulted help |
+message lists information about all the key flags for myscript: |
+--num_iterations, --num_replicas, --rpc2, and --bar_gfs_path (in |
+addition to the special flags --help and --helpshort). |
+ |
+Of course, myscript uses all the flags declared by it (in this case, |
+just --num_replicas) or by any of the modules it transitively imports |
+(e.g., the modules libfoo, libbar). E.g., it can access the value of |
+FLAGS.bar_risky_hack, even if --bar_risky_hack is not declared as a key |
+flag for myscript. |
