AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'convert'

Question

If I start my script I run in this weird error and I don*t know why or how to solve it.

I really don't know why I hit this error. But it seems like there is something ain't right with argparse.

Could someone please help me out with this issue?:)

Error: AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'convert'

My Code:

I use args.convert to convert my files into train and test jsons. — , Mar 02 '21 at 07:22
Reread the docs for `parse_known_args`. You should use `args, extras = parser.parse_known_args()`. Without that unpacking your `args` is a tuple of those 2 objects. — hpaulj, Mar 02 '21 at 07:26
When you get an attribute error one of two things are wrong. Either the object is not what you expect, or you have misread the documentation. You expected a `argparse.Namespace` which would have a `convert` attribute. But instead you got a `tuple`. — hpaulj, Mar 02 '21 at 07:30
I often recommend, when debugging `argparse`, to do a `print(args)`. That shows you what the parser actually produced. Don't assume things. — hpaulj, Mar 02 '21 at 07:43

Try using this when parsing:

args, unknown = parser.parse_known_args()
