Package Exports

cli-path-resolve

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 (cli-path-resolve) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

cli-path-resolve

resolve/normalize a filepath using the cwd as the basepath if relative

installation

$ npm install cli-path-resolve

usage

If an argument is passed to your cli script that points to the file system, it can be absolute or relative.

If it's relative - this module will use the current working directory (process.cwd) as the basedir.

globalscript.js

var args = require('minimist').parse(process.argv, {
    alias:{
    f:'filepath'
  }
})
var resolve = require('cli-path-resolve')
var filepath = resolve(args.filepath)

// filepath is now normalized and absolute
console.log(filepath)

If we have installed globalscript.js globally - we can run it from anywhere.

$ cd /home/myfolder
$ globalscript.js --filepath imgs/balloons.jpg
/home/myfolder/imgs/balloons.jpg

api

`var resolved = resolve(path)`

Will return path if it is absolute or will resolve it against process.cwd if its relative.
