Nodejs command line parameter processing module commander

1, installation

The code is as follows	Copy Code
NPM Install Commander

2, option resolution

The code is as follows

Copy Code

Options with Commander are defined with the option () method, also serving as documentation for the options. The example below parses args and options from process.argv, leaving remaining args as the Program.args array which were n OT consumed by options. #!/usr/bin/env node /** * Module dependencies. */ var program = require (' Commander '); Program . Version (' 0.0.1 ') . option ('-P,--peppers ', ' Add peppers ') . option ('-P,--pineapple ', ' Add pineapple ') . Option (' B,--bbq ', ' Add BBQ sauce ') . option ('-C,--cheese [Type] ', ' ADD ' specified type of cheese [marble] ', ' marble ') . Parse (PROCESS.ARGV); Console.log (' You ordered a pizza with: '); if (program.peppers) console.log ('-peppers '); if (program.pineapple) console.log ('-pineapple '); if (PROGRAM.BBQ) console.log ('-BBQ '); Console.log ('-%s cheese ', Program.cheese); Short flags could passed as a single arg, for EXAMPLE-ABC is equivalent to-a-b-c. Multi-word options such as "–templa Te-engine "are camel-cased, becoming program.templateengine etc.

3. Automatically generate Help information

code is as follows	copy code
$./examples/pizza--help Usage:pizza [Options] Options: -V,--version output the version number -p,--peppers Add peppers -P,--pineapple Add Pineapple -B,--bbq Add BBQ sauce -C,--cheese <type> ADD The specified type of cheese [marble] -h,--help output usage information

Of course you can also manually generate:

code is as follows

copy code

#! /USR/BIN/ENV node   /**  * Module dependencies.  */   var program = require ('. ./');   Function List (val) {   return val.split (', '). Map (number); }   Program   version (' 0.0.1 ')   option ('-F,--foo ', ' Enable some foo ')   option (' B,--bar ', ' Enable some bar ')   OPTION ('-B,--baz ', ' Enable some Baz '); &NBSP //Must be before. Parse () since //node's emit () is immediate   Program.on ('--help ', fun Ction () {   Console.log ('   examples: ');   Console.log (');   Console.log ('      $ custom-help--help ');   Console.log ('     $ Custom-help-h ');   Console.log ("); });   Program.parse (PROCESS.ARGV);   Console.log (' stuff ');

4, to give a complete example

The code is as follows

Copy Code

Function Range (val) { Return Val.split (' ... '). Map (number); } Function List (val) { Return Val.split (', '); } function Collect (val, Memo) { Memo.push (Val); return memo; } function Increaseverbosity (V, total) { return total + 1; } Program . Version (' 0.0.1 ') . Usage (' [options] <file ...> ') . option ('-I,--integer <n> ', ' an integer argument ', parseint) . Option (' F,--float <n> ', ' A float argument ', parsefloat) . Option (' R,--range <a> <b> ', ' A range ', range . Option ('-L,--list <items> ', ' A list ', list) . Option (' O,--optional [value] ', ' an optional value ') . option ('-C,--collect [value] ', ' A repeatable value ', collect, []) . Option ('-V,--verbose ', ' A value ' can be increased ', increaseverbosity, 0) . Parse (PROCESS.ARGV); Console.log (' int:%j ', Program.integer); Console.log (' float:%j ', program.float); Console.log (' Optional:%j ', program.optional); Program.range = Program.range | | []; Console.log (' Range:%j. %j ', program.range[0], program.range[1]); Console.log (' list:%j ', program.list); Console.log (' Collect:%j ', program.collect); Console.log (' verbosity:%j ', program.verbose); Console.log (' args:%j ', Program.args);
