Welcome to the AsyncClick Documentation

AsyncClick is a fork of Click that works well with (some) async
frameworks. Supported: asyncio, trio, and curio.

Click, in turn, is a Python package for creating beautiful command line interfaces
in a composable way with as little code as necessary.  It's the "Command
Line Interface Creation Kit".  It's highly configurable but comes with
sensible defaults out of the box.

It aims to make the process of writing command line tools quick and fun
while also preventing any frustration caused by the inability to implement
an intended CLI API.

Click in three points:

-   arbitrary nesting of commands
-   automatic help page generation
-   supports lazy loading of subcommands at runtime

What does it look like?  Here is an example of a simple Click program:

.. click:example::

    import asyncclick as click
    import anyio

    @click.command()
    @click.option('--count', default=1, help='Number of greetings.')
    @click.option('--name', prompt='Your name',
                  help='The person to greet.')
    async def hello(count, name):
        """Simple program that greets NAME for a total of COUNT times."""
        for x in range(count):
            if x: await anyio.sleep(0.1)
            click.echo(f"Hello {name}!")

    if __name__ == '__main__':
        hello()

And what it looks like when run:

.. click:run::

    invoke(hello, ['--count=3'], prog_name='python hello.py', input='John\n')

It automatically generates nicely formatted help pages:

.. click:run::

    invoke(hello, ['--help'], prog_name='python hello.py')

You can get the library directly from PyPI::

    pip install asyncclick
