…l arguments The kms_parser_check_optionals() function incorrectly rejected positional arguments that appeared after optional arguments, treating them as unknown options. Changed the validation logic in pykms_Misc.py (line 430) to only raise an error for unrecognized optional arguments (those starting with '-'), while allowing positional arguments to pass through. This fixes commands like: python3 pykms_Client.py -m Windows10 192.168.10.1 python3 pykms_Client.py -y 192.168.10.1 python3 pykms_Client.py -m Windows10 192.168.10.1 1688 Previously these would fail with 'expected X argument, unrecognized' errors. Now they work correctly regardless of argument order. Fixes Py-KMS-Organization#113

Description
This PR fixes issue #113 where
pykms_Client.pyfails to parse command line arguments correctly when positional arguments are placed after optional arguments.Problem
The
kms_parser_check_optionals()function inpykms_Misc.pywas incorrectly validating command-line arguments. When a positional argument (like an IP address) appeared after an optional argument (like-m Windows10), the parser would treat it as an unknown option and raise an error.Example of the bug:
This happened because the validation logic checked if the element following an option was a known optional argument, and if not, raised an error - without considering that it might be a legitimate positional argument.
Solution
Modified the validation logic in
pykms_Misc.py(line 430) to only raise an error for unrecognized optional arguments (those starting with-), while allowing positional arguments to pass through.Change made:
This simple change ensures that:
-) are still caught and reported as errors-) are allowed after optional argumentsTesting
After the fix, all the following commands work correctly:
✅ With positional arguments after optional arguments:
✅ Traditional order (positional before optional) still works:
✅ Error handling for invalid options still works:
$ python3 pykms_Client.py -m InvalidMode 192.168.10.1 argument -m/--mode: invalid choice: 'InvalidMode' (choose from ...). Exiting...Impact
