python - 互斥参数抱怨动作索引

Question

我正在尝试对参数进行分组，以便用户可以执行以下任一操作：

python sample.py scan -a 1 -b 2
or
python sample.pt save -d /tmp -n something

这是我的代码：

import argparse
if __name__ == '__main__':
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
            description='this is the description'
            )
    parser.add_argument('op', choices=['scan','save'], help='operation', default='scan')
    root_group = parser.add_mutually_exclusive_group()

    group1 = root_group.add_argument_group('g1', 'scan')
    group1.add_argument('-a', help='dir1')
    group1.add_argument('-b', help='dir2')

    group2 = root_group.add_argument_group('g2', 'save')
    group2.add_argument('-d', help='dir')
    group2.add_argument('-n', help='name')

    args = parser.parse_args()
    print args

当我运行 python sample.py --help

我收到一个错误。有人可以告诉我如何解决吗？

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sample.py", line 18, in <module>
    args = parser.parse_args()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 1688, in parse_args
    args, argv = self.parse_known_args(args, namespace)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 1720, in parse_known_args
    namespace, args = self._parse_known_args(args, namespace)

    action(self, namespace, argument_values, option_string)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 994, in __call__
    parser.print_help()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 2313, in print_help
    self._print_message(self.format_help(), file)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 2287, in format_help
    return formatter.format_help()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 279, in format_help
    help = self._root_section.format_help()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 209, in format_help
    func(*args)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 317, in _format_usage
    action_usage = format(optionals + positionals, groups)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\argparse.py", line 388, in _format_actions_usage
    start = actions.index(group._group_actions[0])
IndexError: list index out of range

如果我添加 action='store_const'，错误就会消失，并且会出现一个要求 4 个输入的新错误。

感谢上面@skyline的链接，我让它与子解析器一起工作：

import argparse
if __name__ == '__main__':
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
            description='this is the description'
            )

    scan_parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(add_help=False)
    scan_parser.add_argument('-a', '--a', help='first num', required=True)
    scan_parser.add_argument('-b', '--b', help='second num', required=True)

    save_parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(add_help=False)
    save_parser.add_argument('-d', '--d', help='directory path', required=True)
    save_parser.add_argument('-n', '--n', help='name of the file', required=True)

    sp = parser.add_subparsers()

    sp_scan = sp.add_parser('scan', parents=[scan_parser], help='scans directories')
    sp_save = sp.add_parser('save', parents=[save_parser], help='saves something')
    args = parser.parse_args()
    print args
