Summary

  • tabcmd Classic invokes delete as tabcmd delete --workbook "Name" where --workbook carries the target name as its value. tabcmd 2 shipped tabcmd delete "Name" --workbook (name positional, flag as type selector). This is a breaking CLI difference for anyone running Classic scripts unchanged.
  • Accept both forms:
    • Positional name becomes optional (nargs="?").
    • --workbook / --datasource take an optional value (nargs="?"). Bare form still means True (tabcmd 2 syntax); with a value, the value is the target name (Classic syntax).
    • In run_command, resolve which form supplied the name and normalize args.workbook / args.datasource to True. Emit the same "requires workbook or datasource" error when neither form supplied a name.
  • Mutual exclusion between --workbook and --datasource still holds.

Closes #433.

Test plan

  • tests/parsers/test_parser_delete.py — 4 new tests cover both forms, mutual exclusion, and empty parse
  • Full unit-test run: 340 passed, 2 skipped

tabcmd Classic invokes delete as `tabcmd delete --workbook "Name"` where
--workbook takes the target name as its value. tabcmd 2 shipped
`tabcmd delete "Name" --workbook` (name positional, flag is a type
selector). This is a breaking CLI difference for anyone running Classic
scripts unchanged.

Accept both forms:
- Positional name stays optional (nargs="?").
- --workbook/--datasource take an optional value (nargs="?"). Bare form
  still means True (tabcmd 2 syntax); with a value, the value is the
  target name (Classic syntax).
- In run_command, resolve which form supplied the name and normalize
  args.workbook/args.datasource to True. Emit the same
  "requires workbook or datasource" error when neither form supplied a
  name.

Mutual exclusion between --workbook and --datasource still holds.

Fixes #433.
