Few random cmd2 recommendations

Open tleonhardt opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

I just took a quick look at the clanvas source code and have a few recommendations regarding the use of cmd2 that you may benefit from:

Consider loading your resource file via the startup_script optional argument to the cmd2.Cmd initializer
Consider also specifying a persistent readline history file in the initializer as well
For commands which use one of the argparse decorators, consider using ACArgumentParser from cmd2 instead of argparse.ArgumentParser - it has several benefits when it comes to automatic tab completion
As of cmd2 0.9.5, you no longer need to init colorama in your app code, because that is done by cmd2

Thanks! Glad to see there are some nice and easy ways to make more improvements thanks to cmd2's simple interfaces.
