I\u2019ll give it a go.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n> Small design suggestion: allow `--copy` to be applied multiple times\u2026\r\n\r\nMakes a ton of sense, will do.\r\n\r\n> Also since Click arguments can take multiple options I don't think you need to have the `:` in there - although if it better matches Docker's own UI it might be more consistent to have it.\r\n\r\nGreat point. I double checked the docs for `docker cp` and in that context the colon is used to delimit a container and a path, while spaces are used to separate the source and target.\r\n\r\nThe usage string is:\r\n\r\n```text\r\ndocker cp [OPTIONS] CONTAINER:SRC_PATH DEST_PATH|-\r\ndocker cp [OPTIONS] SRC_PATH|- CONTAINER:DEST_PATH\r\n```\r\n\r\nso in fact it\u2019ll be more consistent to use a space to delimit the source and destination paths, like so:\r\n\r\n```shell\r\n$ datasette package --copy /the/source/path /the/target/path data.db\r\n```\r\n\r\nand I suppose the short-form version of the option should be `cp` like so:\r\n\r\n```shell\r\n$ datasette package -cp /the/source/path /the/target/path data.db\r\n```", "reactions": "{\"total_count\": 0, \"+1\": 0, \"-1\": 0, \"laugh\": 0, \"hooray\": 0, \"confused\": 0, \"heart\": 0, \"rocket\": 0, \"eyes\": 0}", "issue": {"value": 567902704, "label": "--cp option for datasette publish and datasette package for shipping additional files and directories"}, "performed_via_github_app": null}
