Description
Popping cls introduces a side-effect that prevents the reuse of the returned decorator. For example, consider the code below. The function my_shared_argument is a decorator that is expected to register an argument of type ArgumentWithHelp. Instead, what happens is:
- the first time the decorator is used,
cls=ArgumentWithHelpwill be popped fromattrs->attrsis now modified in-place - the following times the decorator is used,
clswon't be inattrs.
import click
class ArgumentWithHelp(click.Argument):
def __init__(self, *args, help=None, **attrs):
super().__init__(*args, **attrs)
self.help = help
def argument_with_help(*args, cls=ArgumentWithHelp, **kwargs):
return click.argument(*args, cls=cls, **kwargs)
my_shared_argument = argument_with_help("pippo", help="very useful help")
@click.command()
@my_shared_argument
def foo(pippo):
print(pippo)
@click.command()
@my_shared_argument
def bar(pippo):
print(pippo)Running this file as it is:
Traceback (most recent call last):

super().__init__(param_decls, required=required, **attrs)
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'help'
Process finished with exit code 1 The @option decorator is affected by the same problem but it won't crash in a similar situation because click.Option.__init__ ignore extra arguments: it will just silently use click.Option as class.
The @option decorator is actually not affected because attrs is copied. This copy is nonetheless unnecessary, since adding cls to the signature of the function would be a more straightforward solution.
Environment:
- Python version: irrelevant
- Click version: 8.1.3 (but all versions are affected)
