experimental helper to configurate logging in argh CLI tools

arghlog

arghlog is a module for integrating argh CLI tools with standard Python logging. It is an experiment derived from termtool.

Usage

Use the arghlog.add_logging() function to add logging options to the argument parser. That is, instead of:

import argh

def foo():
    pass

argh.dispatch_command(foo)

use:

import argh
import arghlog

def foo():
    pass

parser = argh.ArghParser()
arghlog.add_logging(parser)
parser.set_default_command(foo)
parser.dispatch()

This provides the command options:

usage: foo [-h] [-v] [-q] [--color] [--no-color]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  -v          use more verbose logging (stackable)
  -q          use less verbose logging (stackable)
  --color     use color in log (when available)
  --no-color  use no color in log
