I am having issues which I believe are due to click. I am trying to run this code and I keep running into the same traceback TypeError stating an argument is being passed to main().
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import sys
import boto
import boto.ec2
import click
@click.command()
@click.option('--region', '-r', default='us-west-2', help='AWS Region')
def main():
try:
ec2 = boto.ec2.connect_to_region(region)
except Exception, error:
print("Boto Error: %s" ) % str(error)
else:
print("It's working!")
finally:
sys.exit(1)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
This code seems pretty simple, so I take click is doing something here to prevent this for working correctly?
Traceback (most recent call last):

I'm not familiar with click
module but from what I can see from the docs, you should change def main():
to def main(region):
since you want the function to accept the parameter you are passing from the command line.
