Plugin for base-methods that maps built-in methods to CLI args (also supports methods from a few plugins, like 'base-store', 'base-options' and 'base-data'.
You might also be interested in base-config.
Install with npm:
$ npm install base-cli --save
Adds a cli method to base for mapping parsed command line arguments existing base methods or custom functions.
The goal is to simplify the process of settings up command line logic for your base application.
var cli = require('base-cli');
var Base = require('base');
var app = new Base();
// register the plugin
app.use(cli());
This adds a cli object to base with the following (chainable) methods (base.cli.*):
.map() - .map: add mappings from command line flags/options to custom functions or base methods.alias() - .alias: similar to map but creates simple aliases. For example, alias('show', 'get') would invoke the .get() method when --show is passed on the command line.process() - .process: once all mappings are defined, pass argv to .process() to iterate over the mappings, passing argv as context.var argv = require('minimist')(process.argv.slice(2));
var expand = require('expand-args');
var cli = require('base-cli');
var Base = require('base');
var app = new Base();
app.use(cli());
app.cli
.map('get', function(key, val) {
app.get(key, val);
})
.map('set', function(key, val) {
app.set(key, val);
})
app.cli.process(expand(argv), function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
});
// command line args:
//
// '--set=a:b --get=a'
//
// prints:
//
// 'a'
//
The following commands are currently supported.
