# main file

app = typer.Typer()

app.add_typer(typer_instance=commands.make_structure.app, name="create", help="Create the project structure")
app.add_typer(typer_instance=commands.lang_choise.app, name="lang", help="Pick C or Cpp language")

# TODO: add a callback to the CLI indicate what's going on!!!

Description

I created a small CLI scripts for building development environment for C projects. I divided my projects to main file situated in the main workspace directory and a package called command where I development most of the sub-commands. Using the API typer.add_typer(), I included the sub-commands in the main file. The issue is when I run the program : python3 main.py [sub-command] --help it doesn't show the option available for the that sub-command

In the subcommand files use app.callback() instead app.command() and you will see what you expect.

cli.py:

import typer

import commands

app = typer.Typer(add_completion=False)

app.add_typer(typer_instance=commands.make_structure.app, name="create", help="Create the project structure")
app.add_typer(typer_instance=commands.lang_choise.app, name="lang", help="Pick C or Cpp language")

if __name__== "__main__":
    app()

❯ python issue.py --help
Usage: issue.py [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

  create  Create the project structure
  lang    Pick C or Cpp language

commands/lang_choise.py:

import typer

app = typer.Typer(add_completion=False)


@app.callback("lang")

    # set the directory to work with
    print(choise)
