Paperbush 🌿
Paperbush is a super concise argument parsing tool that simplifies the process of creating command-line argument parsers in Python. With Paperbush, you can define your parser in just a single line of code using a custom built-in language, which is then translated directly into the built-in argparse module equivalent. This means that in most cases, moving to Paperbush is just a matter of changing the parser definition, as Paperbush.parse_args() returns an argparse.Namespace object.
Installation
Paperbush is available on PyPI and can be installed with pip, or any other Python package manager:
