Description

Targs helps you build command line tools. As opposed to other CLI parsers, Targs returns type safe parameter and therefore allow for better compilation and intellisense support Targs is not a framework for managing the whole CLI application lifecycle Instead it focuses on parsing argv in a type safe manner

Installation

Stable version:

npm install targs-node

Simple Example

import {readCliArgs} from "targs";

const {name} = readCliArgs({
    name: CliArgString(),
});

console.log("Hello " + name + "!");

$ ./main.js --name=Ori
Hello Ori!

Complex Example

import {readCliArgs} from "targs";

const cli = readCliArgs({
    ids: CliArgArrayNumber("ids"), // Parameter --ids is required, must be of the format 1,2,3
    verbose: CliArgBoolean("v", true), // Parameter -v is optional (default value is true)
});

console.log("Ids: ", cli.ids);
console.log("Verbose: " + cli.verbose);

$ ./main.js --ids=1,2,3
Ids: 1,2,3
Verbose: true
