I'm trying to write a simple script using python3 and I get this error when attempting to force an arg value to be a string. I've searched around but other threads largely involve using Django, etc, which is not what I'm trying to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
import argparse
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser('seq_file', type=str, help = 'xyz')
parser.add_argument('sequence_file', type=str, help='xyz')
args = parser.parse_args()
The error I'm getting is:
File "x.py", line y, in <module>
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser('seq_file', type=str, help='xyz')
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'type'
What am I doing wrong?
The docs show that argparse.ArgumentParser
does not take a type
argument.
It looks like you are trying to describe an argument in the constructor to ArgumentParser
. Use the add_argument
method to do that.
Change
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser('seq_file', type=str, help = 'xyz')
to
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('seq_file', type=str, help='xyz')
