[docs] def BitmathType(bmstring): """An 'argument type' for integrations with the argparse module. For more information, see https://docs.python.org/2/library/argparse.html#type Of particular interest to us is this bit: ``type=`` can take any callable that takes a single string argument and returns the converted value I.e., ``type`` can be a function (such as this function) or a class which implements the ``__call__`` method. Example usage of the bitmath.BitmathType argparser type: >>> import bitmath >>> import argparse >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser() >>> parser.add_argument("--file-size", type=bitmath.BitmathType) >>> parser.parse_args("--file-size 1337MiB".split()) Namespace(file_size=MiB(1337.0)) Invalid usage includes any input that the bitmath.parse_string function already rejects. Additionally, **UNQUOTED** arguments with spaces in them are rejected (shlex.split used in the following examples to conserve single quotes in the parse_args call): >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser() >>> parser.add_argument("--file-size", type=bitmath.BitmathType) >>> import shlex >>> # The following is ACCEPTABLE USAGE: ... >>> parser.parse_args(shlex.split("--file-size '1337 MiB'")) Namespace(file_size=MiB(1337.0)) >>> # The following is INCORRECT USAGE because the string "1337 MiB" is not quoted! ... >>> parser.parse_args(shlex.split("--file-size 1337 MiB")) error: argument --file-size: 1337 can not be parsed into a valid bitmath object """ try: argvalue = bitmath.parse_string(bmstring) except ValueError: raise argparse.ArgumentTypeError("'%s' can not be parsed into a valid bitmath object" % bmstring) else: return argvalue
