promptpy

A Python command-line input and validation library.

promptpy prompts for and validates a range of different data types on the command line. Out of the box it supports limited character sets, integers, floats, dates, yes/no, lists and single-character commands:

from promptpy import Prompt
prompt = Prompt()
choice = prompt.integer("Pick a number", min=1, max=10, default=7)

It is easy to add other types of prompt and validation by creating custom validators.

For more detail see the Usage documentation.
