[Py2exe-users] py2exe with cmd module

[honas grael]

Hi I'm using python's cmd.cmd module(aka cmd module), essentially I have a
function like

do_simple_test(line)
*run the test file*

When I run it, I get a nice little console typing
simple_test(test_filename.txt), allows me to run the tests contained in the
text file that I typed in.

This works well, but I want to take the automation one step further. I
converted my *main.py* into an executable *main.exe* using py2exe. It still
works fine.

What I now want is to be able to launch main.exe with the test_filename.txt
as a parameter so

main.exe test_filename.txt

so that it will execute

simple_test(test_filename.txt)

That would give me the freedom to change the argument with which I call
main.exe, without having to type the appropriate command in the console
window.

I am running python 2.7.10 on Windows Is it possible to do this, and how?

Thank you

Hi,
this isn't actually a py2exe question. What stops you from doing it
the old fashioned way?
import sys
do_simple_test(sys.argv[1])
or actually implement an argument parser for your program. That way
you could actually add some more arguments to your program. Use the
argparse module to do that (import argparse).
Both ways should be fully compatible to py2exe.
Best Regards.
