Sunrise is a pythonic command line framework to ease development of command line utilities. It depends on argparse for arguments parsing.

In order to create your own command line utility, you have to inherit from Sunrise class. For each command you want from your command line utility, create a 'do_<command_name>' method. it must accept two arguments:

• a list of arguments passed throw the command line
• a dictionnary of options your utility accepts

Example:

import Sunrise
import os

Class Heroku(Sunrise.Sunrise):
    def do_herokize(self, args, options):
        os.makedir(args[1])
        os.chdir(args[1])
        open('.gitignore','w+').write('*.pyc')
        open('Procfile').write('web: python manage.py gunicorn')
        open('requirements.txt','w+').write('')

To add an additional option, in your utility, call 'add_option' method in the '__init__' method.

Class Heroku(Sunrise.Sunrise):
    def __init__(self):
        super(Heroku, self).__init__()
        self.add_option('<option_name'>, <options_parameter>)
