**Documentation**: <a href="https://typer-cloup.netlify.app" target="_blank">https://typer-cloup.netlify.app</a>

**Source Code**: <a href="https://github.com/alexreg/typer-cloup" target="_blank">https://github.com/alexreg/typer-cloup</a>

---

**NOTE**: This project is a fork of <a href="https://github.com/tiangolo/typer" class="external-link" target="_blank">the original Typer project</a>, building upon <a href="https://github.com/janLuke/cloup" class="external-link" target="_blank">Cloup</a> rather than <a href="https://click.palletsprojects.com/" class="external-link" target="_blank">Click</a> (of which Cloup is an extension). `typer-cloup` is largely but not entirely backward compatible with `typer` 0.4.2, and also includes some changes to `typer` made since then.

Typer is a library for building <abbr title="command-line interface, programs executed from a terminal">CLI</abbr> applications that users will **love using** and developers will **love creating**. Based on Python 3.7+ type hints.

The key features are:

* **Intuitive to write**: Great editor support. <abbr title="also known as auto-complete, autocompletion, IntelliSense">Completion</abbr> everywhere. Less time debugging. Designed to be easy to use and learn. Less time reading docs.
* **Easy to use**: It's easy to use for the final users. Automatic help, and automatic completion for all shells.
* **Short**: Minimize code duplication. Multiple features from each parameter declaration. Fewer bugs.
* **Start simple**: The simplest example adds only 2 lines of code to your app: **1 import, 1 function call**.
* **Grow large**: Grow in complexity as much as you want, create arbitrarily complex trees of commands and groups of subcommands, with options and arguments.

## FastAPI of CLIs

<a href="https://fastapi.tiangolo.com" target="_blank"><img src="https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/img/logo-margin/logo-teal.png" style="width: 20%;"></a>

**Typer** is <a href="https://fastapi.tiangolo.com" class="external-link" target="_blank">FastAPI</a>'s little sibling.

And it's intended to be the FastAPI of CLIs.

## Requirements

Python 3.7+

**Typer** stands on the shoulders of a giant. Its only internal dependency is <a href="https://github.com/janLuke/cloup" class="external-link" target="_blank">Cloup</a>, which is itself based on <a href="https://click.palletsprojects.com/" class="external-link" target="_blank">Click</a>.

## Installation

<div class="termy">

```console
$ pip install typer-cloup
---> 100%
Successfully installed typer-cloup
```

</div>

## Example

### The absolute minimum

* Create a file `main.py` with:

```Python
import typer_cloup as typer


def main(name: str):
    typer.echo(f"Hello {name}")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    typer.run(main)
```

### Run it

Run your application:

<div class="termy">

```console
// Run your application
$ python main.py

// You get a nice error, you are missing NAME
Usage: main.py [OPTIONS] NAME
Try "main.py --help" for help.

Error: Missing argument 'NAME'.

// You get a --help for free
$ python main.py --help

Usage: main.py [OPTIONS] NAME

Arguments:
  NAME    [required]

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

// When you create a package you get ✨ auto-completion ✨ for free, installed with --install-completion

// Now pass the NAME argument
$ python main.py Camila

Hello Camila

// It works! 🎉
```

</div>

**Note**: auto-completion works when you create a Python package and run it with `--install-completion` or when you use <a href="https://typer-cloup.netlify.app/typer-cloup-cli/" class="internal-link" target="_blank">Typer CLI</a>.

## Example upgrade

This was the simplest example possible.

Now let's see one a bit more complex.

### An example with two subcommands

Modify the file `main.py`.

Create a `typer.Typer()` app, and create two subcommands with their parameters.

```Python hl_lines="3  6  11  20"
import typer_cloup as typer

app = typer.Typer()


@app.command()
def hello(name: str):
    typer.echo(f"Hello {name}")


@app.command()
def goodbye(name: str, formal: bool = False):
    if formal:
        typer.echo(f"Goodbye Ms. {name}. Have a good day.")
    else:
        typer.echo(f"Bye {name}!")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app()
```

And that will:

* Explicitly create a `typer.Typer` app.
    * The previous `typer.run` actually creates one implicitly for you.
* Add two subcommands with `@app.command()`.
* Execute the `app()` itself, as if it was a function (instead of `typer.run`).

### Run the upgraded example

<div class="termy">

```console
// Check the --help
$ python main.py --help

Usage: main.py [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  goodbye
  hello

// You have 2 subcommands (the 2 functions): goodbye and hello

// Now get the --help for hello

$ python main.py hello --help

Usage: main.py hello [OPTIONS] NAME

Arguments:
  NAME    [required]

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

// And now get the --help for goodbye

$ python main.py goodbye --help

Usage: main.py goodbye [OPTIONS] NAME

Arguments:
  NAME                    [required]

Options:
  --formal / --no-formal  [default: no-formal]
  --help                  Show this message and exit.

// Automatic --formal and --no-formal for the bool option 🎉

// And if you use it with the hello command

$ python main.py hello Camila

Hello Camila

// And with the goodbye command

$ python main.py goodbye Camila

Bye Camila!

// And with --formal

$ python main.py goodbye --formal Camila

Goodbye Ms. Camila. Have a good day.
```

</div>

### Recap

In summary, you declare **once** the types of parameters (*CLI arguments* and *CLI options*) as function parameters.

You do that with standard modern Python types.

You don't have to learn a new syntax, the methods or classes of a specific library, etc.

Just standard **Python 3.7+**.

For example, for an `int`:

```Python
total: int
```

or for a `bool` flag:

```Python
force: bool
```

And similarly for **files**, **paths**, **enums** (choices), etc. And there are tools to create **groups of subcommands**, add metadata, extra **validation**, etc.

**You get**: great editor support, including **completion** and **type checks** everywhere.

**Your users get**: automatic **`--help`**, **auto-completion** in their terminal (Bash, Zsh, Fish) when they install your package or when using <a href="https://typer-cloup.netlify.app/typer-cloup-cli/" class="internal-link" target="_blank">Typer CLI</a>.

For a more complete example including more features, see the <a href="https://typer-cloup.netlify.app/tutorial/">Tutorial - User Guide</a>.

## Optional Dependencies

Typer uses <a href="https://github.com/janLuke/cloup" class="external-link" target="_blank">Cloup</a> internally, which is based on <a href="https://click.palletsprojects.com/" class="external-link" target="_blank">Click</a>. That's the only dependency.

But you can also install extras:

* <a href="https://pypi.org/project/colorama/" class="external-link" target="_blank"><code>colorama</code></a>: and Click will automatically use it to make sure your terminal's colors always work correctly, even in Windows.
    * Then you can use any tool you want to output your terminal's colors in all the systems, including the integrated `typer.style()` and `typer.secho()` (provided by Click).
    * Or any other tool, e.g. <a href="https://pypi.org/project/wasabi/" class="external-link" target="_blank"><code>wasabi</code></a>, <a href="https://github.com/erikrose/blessings" class="external-link" target="_blank"><code>blessings</code></a>.
* <a href="https://pypi.org/project/docstring_parser/" class="external-link" target="_blank"><code>docstring_parser</code></a>: and Typer will automatically use it to parse help text for parameters from docstrings of functions.

You can install `typer-cloup` with all optional dependencies by running `pip install typer-cloup[all]`.

## Other tools and plug-ins

Click has many plug-ins available that you can use. And there are many tools that help with command-line applications that you can use as well, even if they are not related to Typer or Click.

For example:

* <a href="https://github.com/click-contrib/click-spinner" class="external-link" target="_blank"><code>click-spinner</code></a>: to show the user that you are loading data. A Click plug-in.
    * There are several other Click plug-ins at <a href="https://github.com/click-contrib" class="external-link" target="_blank">click-contrib</a> that you can explore.
* <a href="https://pypi.org/project/tabulate/" class="external-link" target="_blank"><code>tabulate</code></a>: to automatically display tabular data nicely. Independent of Click or Typer.
* <a href="https://github.com/tqdm/tqdm" class="external-link" target="_blank"><code>tqdm</code></a>: a fast, extensible progress bar, alternative to Typer's own `typer.progressbar()`.
