Help Rendering

Milo providesHelpRenderer, a drop-in argparse.HelpFormattersubclass that renders help output through Kida templates for styled terminal output.

Usage

import argparse
from milo import HelpRenderer

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
    prog="myapp",
    description="My CLI tool",
    formatter_class=HelpRenderer,
)
parser.add_argument("--verbose", help="Enable verbose output")
parser.add_argument("command", help="Command to run")
parser.parse_args()

When the user runs myapp --help, the output is rendered through the help.kidaKida template instead of argparse's default plain-text formatter.

Customization

Override the built-inhelp.kidatemplate by placing your own in your template directory. The template receives the full argparse structure as context.
