Package Exports

args-parser

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (args-parser) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

args-parser

Straight-forward node.js arguments parser.

$ node ./script.js careful -dangerous --tomatoes=3 --tonight --key=ek==

{
  "careful": true,
  "dangerous": true,
  "tomatoes": 3,
  "tonight": true,
  "key": "ek=="
}

How to use it?

$ npm install args-parser

Simply call the module passing it an arguments array such as process.argv:

const args = require('args-parser')(process.argv);
console.info(args);

The returned value is an Object having a key for each given argument and a value if it's found an = sign (true otherwise).

Consider this command:

$ node ./script.js careful -dangerous --tomatoes=3 --tonight --key=ek==

Will return:

{
  "careful": true,
  "dangerous": true,
  "tomatoes": 3,
  "tonight": true,
  "key": "ek=="
}

So then you can easily check what you need:

if (args.careful) {
  // Do something
}
