Add support for *args
arguments in CLI
Motivation
Currently I cannot instantiate *args
-like arguments. For example:
In main.py
from jsonargparse import CLI
class A:
def __init__(self, *a: int, b: int) -> None:
self.a = a
self.b = b
def main(a: A) -> None:
print(a.a, a.b)
if __name__ == '__main__':
CLI(main)
In config.yaml
:
a:
class_path: __main__.A
init_args:
a: [1, 2]
b: 3
In terminal:
python -m main --config config.yaml
Gives error:
error: Parser key "a":
Problem with given class_path '__main__.A':
Validation failed: No action for key "a" to check its value.
Pitch
The above code should runs without errors.
Alternatives
Thank you for the proposal! I think about this.
