ideas for improving regular expression for determining parameter types

[bernt-matthias]

Currently key words min|max indicate an integer parameter, but this could be a float as well.

So one should check if these keyword are followed by an integer/float value (the latter maybe also in scientific notation). Or simply check if there is a float or integer on the line at all.

Choices are often represented (e.g. in argparse) by {A,B,C}, I often see ranges represented by [min,max], (min,max), [min:max], (min:max), where min and max ar integers / floats.

If you could find a concrete help example (preferably something on bioconda), this could be added to the parser.

Notably, this should be a new field on the CliInteger:

CliHelpParser/acclimatise/cli_types.py

Lines 50 to 55 in 435e560

	class CliInteger(CliType):
	"""
	Takes an integer value
	"""
	_representable = {CliFloat}
