Command Line Argument Processing
Standalone Python programs often needs to handle command line arguments.
sys.argv is the list containing arguments as strings.
The path of the script being executed is available on position 0.
import sys
print(f"Arguments count: {len(sys.argv)}")
for i, arg in enumerate(sys.argv):
print(f"Argument {i:>1}: {arg}")
Also explore argparse.
Execute an O/S Command
Execute an O/S Command with the subprocess Module
Other Methods
TO PROCESS:
Organizatorium
from shutil import which
commands={
"aws": "awscli",
"aws-login": "aws-login",
"aws-eks-configure": "aws-eks-configure"
}
for c in commands:
print("{:20}{:7}".format(commands[c], "OK" if which(c) else "missing"))
