Use 'choices' to check if the given parameter is valid. I also simplified the help message because, with 'choices', --help shows the list of valid parameters: --log_level {DEBUG,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,CRITICAL} I started the help message with a lower case, "the level of log ..." in order to be consistent with the -h option: -h, --help show this help message and exit The message "show this help ..." comes from the ArgumentParser library code, and I do not know how to change it. So, I changed our code.
