======================================================= cliff -- Command Line Interface Formulation Framework ======================================================= cliff is a framework for building command line programs. It uses setuptools entry points to provide subcommands, output formatters, and other extensions. To do ===== - Should commands have an explicit API for checking whether the user can invoke them? - example show app - change API for list app to expect a sequence of dictionaries? - unicode output for python 2 (incompatible with csv?) - json formatter(s) - pprint formatter(s) - pretty but non-table formatter(s) - shell script formatter(s)? (properties as variable names) - create a few example commands that use a sqlite database to show how to manage transactions - switch setup/teardown functions in app to use some sort of context manager?
