It supports the same conventions as the Unix <tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">getopt()</span></tt> function (including the special meanings of arguments of the form ‘<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-</span></tt>‘ and ‘<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--</span></tt>‘).

Typically, this means <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.argv[1:]</span></tt>. <em>options</em> is the string of option letters that the script wants to recognize, with options that require an argument followed by a colon (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">':'</span></tt>; i.e., the same format that Unix <tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">getopt()</span></tt> uses).</p> <div class="admonition note"> <p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> <p class="last">Unlike GNU <tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">getopt()</span></tt>, after a non-option argument, all further arguments are considered also non-options.

Long options which require an argument should be followed by an equal sign (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'='</span></tt>). Optional arguments are not supported. To accept only long options, <em>options</em> should be an empty string. Long options on the command line can be recognized so long as they provide a prefix of the option name that matches exactly one of the accepted options. For example, if <em>long_options</em> is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">['foo',</span> <span class="pre">'frob']</span></tt>, the option <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--fo</span></tt> will match as <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--foo</span></tt>, but <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--f</span></tt> will not match uniquely, so <a class="reference internal" href="#getopt.GetoptError" title="getopt.GetoptError"><tt class="xref py py-exc docutils literal"><span class="pre">GetoptError</span></tt></a> will be raised.</p> <p>The return value consists of two elements: the first is a list of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">(option,</span> <span class="pre">value)</span></tt> pairs; the second is the list of program arguments left after the option list was stripped (this is a trailing slice of <em>args</em>). Each option-and-value pair returned has the option as its first element, prefixed with a hyphen for short options (e.g., <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'-x'</span></tt>) or two hyphens for long options (e.g., <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'--long-option'</span></tt>), and the option argument as its second element, or an empty string if the option has no argument.
