Spyder is opening bootstrap.py when using "python bootstrap.py"

[ok97465]

Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I think that this issue is from #11704.
That PR changed "CLI_OPTIONS, CLI_ARGS = get_options()" to "CLI_OPTIONS, CLI_ARGS = get_options(sys_argv)" of 108 line of mainwindow.py

I am sorry if it was the problem you intended or already knew.
Have a nice day.

Thanks for the catch and sorry about that @ok97465 , I did it to save one line of code duplication since if get_options() is called with the default None, which is passed to argparse.parse_args() it will just pull from sys.argv anyway but I forgot that it needs to be sys.argv[1:] or it grabs the name of the script being run, which in this case makes Spyder open it as a file. My mistake, sorry, we could just replace it with that but better to just do it the way @ccordoba12 did to avoid any other issues going forward.

@CAM-Gerlach, I agree with you that get_options() is better, since if sys.argv[1:] is used, a file argument could be missed, for example if opening a file when Spyder is not already open.

Thanks @CAM-Gerlach and @mrclary for your input!

[ok97465]

@CAM-Gerlach It's ok. Thank you for your hard work on spyder. 👍

[CAM-Gerlach]

@mrclary Yeah, just too many edge cases that could crop up...I just should have thought of that originally but thanks to you and @ok97465 for your help here! I haven't been working too much on Spyder itself lately, mostly the docs and tutorials with a few PRs here and there as I focus on building an open-source client-server IoT framework designed for field networks of scientific sensors. @ccordoba12 has been the one doing all the hard work as he always does
