def _help_callback

Detailed Description

A collection of options, a dictionary with object-like access.

Normally accessed via static functions in the `tornado.options` module,
which reference a global instance.

def tornado.options.OptionParser.define (   self,
  name,
  default = None,
  type = None,
  help = None,
  metavar = None,
  multiple = False,
  group = None,
  callback = None 
)
Defines a new command line option.

If ``type`` is given (one of str, float, int, datetime, or timedelta)
or can be inferred from the ``default``, we parse the command line
arguments based on the given type. If ``multiple`` is True, we accept
comma-separated values, and the option value is always a list.

For multi-value integers, we also accept the syntax ``x:y``, which
turns into ``range(x, y)`` - very useful for long integer ranges.

``help`` and ``metavar`` are used to construct the
automatically generated command line help string. The help
message is formatted like::

   --name=METAVAR      help string

``group`` is used to group the defined options in logical
groups. By default, command line options are grouped by the
file in which they are defined.

Command line option names must be unique globally. They can be parsed
from the command line with `parse_command_line` or parsed from a
config file with `parse_config_file`.

If a ``callback`` is given, it will be run with the new value whenever
the option is changed.  This can be used to combine command-line
and file-based options::

    define("config", type=str, help="path to config file",
   callback=lambda path: parse_config_file(path, final=False))

With this definition, options in the file specified by ``--config`` will
override options set earlier on the command line, but can be overridden
by later flags.

Definition at line 165 of file options.py.

def tornado.options.OptionParser.group_dict (   self,
  group 
)
The names and values of options in a group.

Useful for copying options into Application settings::

    from tornado.options import define, parse_command_line, options

    define('template_path', group='application')
    define('static_path', group='application')

    parse_command_line()

    application = Application(
handlers, **options.group_dict('application'))

.. versionadded:: 3.1

The set of option-groups created by ``define``.

.. versionadded:: 3.1

Definition at line 129 of file options.py.

A sequence of (name, value) pairs.

.. versionadded:: 3.1

Returns a wrapper around self that is compatible with
`mock.patch <unittest.mock.patch>`.

The `mock.patch <unittest.mock.patch>` function (included in
the standard library `unittest.mock` package since Python 3.3,
or in the third-party ``mock`` package for older versions of
Python) is incompatible with objects like ``options`` that
override ``__getattr__`` and ``__setattr__``.  This function
returns an object that can be used with `mock.patch.object
<unittest.mock.patch.object>` to modify option values::

    with mock.patch.object(options.mockable(), 'name', value):
assert options.name == value

def tornado.options.OptionParser.parse_command_line (   self,
  args = None,
  final = True 
)
Parses all options given on the command line (defaults to
`sys.argv`).

Note that ``args[0]`` is ignored since it is the program name
in `sys.argv`.

We return a list of all arguments that are not parsed as options.

If ``final`` is ``False``, parse callbacks will not be run.
This is useful for applications that wish to combine configurations
from multiple sources.

Definition at line 225 of file options.py.

def tornado.options.OptionParser.parse_config_file (   self,
  path,
  final = True 
)
Parses and loads the Python config file at the given path.

If ``final`` is ``False``, parse callbacks will not be run.
This is useful for applications that wish to combine configurations
from multiple sources.

Definition at line 268 of file options.py.

def tornado.options.OptionParser.print_help (   self,
  file = None 
)
Prints all the command line options to stderr (or another file).
