How to use

Since this provides an executable you will have to Globally Install the Package.

Running with npm

npm install -g @s54a/hi

Then, you can execute it with:

hi

Running with npx

You can also run the CLI without installing it globally by using npx:

npx @s54a/hi

Source Code

#!/usr/bin/env node

const argv: string[] = process.argv;

const [, , ...args]: string[] = argv;

if (args.length === 0) {
  console.log("hello, how are you?");
} else {
  console.log(args);
}

Output

Command to run the CLI Script or App = hi Output =

hello, how are you?

Command with Arguments = hi test Output =

[ 'test' ]

Command with Arguments = hi t e s t Output =

[ 't', 'e', 's', 't' ]
