Argh provides a very simple wrapper for argparse.

Argparse is a very powerful tool; argh just makes it easy to use.

Here??s a list of features that argh adds to argparse:

  • mark a function as a CLI command and specify its arguments before the parser is instantiated;
  • nested commands made easy: no messing with subparsers;
  • infer command name from function name;
  • infer argument type from the default value;
  • infer argument action from the default value (for booleans);
  • infer arguments from function signature;
  • add an alias root command help for the –help argument;
  • enable passing unwrapped arguments to certain functions instead of an argparse.Namespace object.

Argh is fully compatible with argparse. You can mix argh-agnostic and argh-aware code. Just keep in mind that dispatch() does some extra work that a custom dispatcher may not do.
