quickargparse.py

import argparse

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()

# List of desired argument names
argnames = [
'argument1',
'argument2',
'argument3'
]

# Turn list into arguments
for x in argnames:
    parser.add_argument(f'-{x}', dest=f"{x}", default='', type=str, nargs='?', const='')
    
# Create dictionary with the values of those arguments
argvalues = {}
for x in argnames:
    argvalues[x] = getattr((parser.parse_args()), x)
