Virtual Environment

With virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper

# Installing virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper
sudo pip install virtualenv virtualenvwrapper

# Update the profile ~/.bashrc
# Add the  following lines

# Python virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper
export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

# Reload the profile
source ~/.bashrc

# Creating python virtual environment
# The py3cv3 is a self-defined name 
mkvirtualenv py3cv3 -p python3

# Enter the specified virtual environment
workon py3cv3

# Exit the the specified virtual environment
deactivate

# List all of the environments.
lsvirtualenv

# Remove an environment
rmvirtualenv py3cv3

Command Arguments
    Manual: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html  
    import argparse
# construct the argument parser and parse the arguments
ap = argparse.ArgumentParser()
ap.add_argument("-i", "--interval", required=False,
        help="Seconds to Interval (Default:30)", default="30", type=int)
ap.add_argument("-o", "--output", required=False,
        help="Path to Output Logs (Default:std-out)")
args = vars(ap.parse_args())

# Usage
intv = args["interval"]
logfile = args["output"]
    #
# Nagios2 HTTP proxy test
#
# usage: check_http_proxy --proxy=proxy:port --auth=user:pass --url=url --timeout=10 --warntime=5 --expect=content

# Usage
