ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

# import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
first, last = name1.split()
if firstname:
click.echo(first)
elif lastname:
click.echo(last)
if __name__ == '__main__':
cli()
[\python]
==========================
expected output like
python foo.py name firstname lastname >> print firstname + lastname
python foo.py name firstname lastname --firstname >> it will print firstname
same for the lastname
Ok...so as scasey said, you didn't post the indented code in CODE tags, and you (again) are just asking a question without providing details or showing your efforts. What version of Python? What are the ACTUAL ERRORS you're getting, that differ from what you want? Or are you just posting this and wanting us to do it for you?
As others have asked, to preserve formatting please place your code snippets inside [CODE]...[/CODE] tags. You may type those yourself or click the "#" button in the edit controls.
Proper indenting is required for python code to be readable by others.
Please also review the Site FAQ for guidance in posting your questions and general forum usage. Especially, read the link in that page, How To Ask Questions The Smart Way. The more effort you put into understanding your problem and framing your questions, the better others can help!
Well aside from improper formatting of the OP and my own unfamiliarity with the click module, I think what the OP wants is something along the lines of:
Code:
import click
@click.group()
def cli():
pass
@cli.command('name')
@click.argument('name1', nargs=-1)
@click.option('--firstname', is_flag=True)
@click.option('--lastname', is_flag=True)
def name(name1, firstname, lastname):
first, last = name1[0],name1[-1]
if firstname:
click.echo(first)
elif lastname:
click.echo(last)
elif (not firstname and not lastname):
click.echo(first+' '+last)
if __name__ == '__main__':
cli()
