pass custom optional arguments from the cli
You can pass your own arguments to your pipelines from the cli without writing any code. You can decide per pipeline what style of arguments work better for that specific pipeline, for example key-value pairs, or a single string, or boolean switches.
See context parsers for more information on how to pass your own arguments to a pipeline and how to use those runtime values in the pipeline.
boolean switches
# ./defaultarg.yaml
#
# To execute this pipeline, shell something like:
# pypyr defaultarg arb
#
# And to run with isRetry
# pypyr defaultarg isRetry
#
# And to run with isCI:
# pypyr defaultarg isCI
#
# And to run with both Retry and CI:
# pypyr defaultarg isCI isRetry
