Author of Fire here. Was super happy to pass the 10000 star mark on GitHub today thanks to this HN post :) -- that boosted my spirits on an otherwise long and rainy (and now delayed) bus ride.

Hope you find Fire useful!

What's next for Python Fire? We're working on improving the help screens and usage outputs so it feels less like a developer tool and more like a professional grade CLI. So stay tuned as it gets better!

Great library. Excited to see that in 0.1.2 you removed nearly every dependency except `six` (esp ipython).

This caused me to have to remove `fire` from a project repo's requirements.txt so that ipython wouldn't be included in production builds. Then in the testing script that used it, there was a comment saying "you're going to need ipython for this"

thanks for writing this!
