6.21.4.4 Callback example 1: trivial callback
Here's an example of a callback option that takes no arguments, and simply records that the option was seen:
def record_foo_seen(option, opt_str, value, parser): parser.saw_foo = True parser.add_option("--foo", action="callback", callback=record_foo_seen)
Of course, you could do that with the store_true
action.
