Write options for minimist in a comfortable way.
$ npm install --save minimist-options
const buildOptions = require('minimist-options');
const minimist = require('minimist');
const options = buildOptions({
name: {
type: 'string',
alias: 'n',
default: 'john'
},
force: {
type: 'boolean',
alias: ['f', 'o'],
default: false
},
published: 'boolean',
// special option for positional arguments (`_` in minimist)
arguments: 'string'
});
const args = minimist(options);
instead of:
const minimist = require('minimist');
const options = {
string: ['name', '_'],
boolean: ['force', 'published'],
alias: {
n: 'name',
f: 'force',
o: 'force'
},
default: {
name: 'john',
f: false
}
};
const args = minimist(options);
