Examples

Most of these example files are modules exporting an array of Option Definitions. They are consumed using the command-line-args test harness.

Install

Install the test harness:

$ npm install -g command-line-args

Usage

Try one of the examples out

$ cat example/typical.js | command-line-args --timeout 100 --src lib/*

{ timeout: 100,
  src:
   [ 'lib/argv.js',
     'lib/command-line-args.js',
     'lib/definition.js',
     'lib/definitions.js',
     'lib/option.js' ] }

Validation

command-line-args parses the command line but does not validate the values received. There's one example (validate.js) suggesting how this could be done:

$ node example/validate.js
