ink-task

Bringing task handling on Ink.

Introduction

Ink is awesome. But making complete CLI apps with a lot of tasks and flags could get messy.

ink-task is a Ink plugin that let you handle tasks, react-router style.

Install

$ npm install ink-task

Usage

Basically,

import { Switch, Task, Help } from 'ink-task'

...

<Switch>
    <Task match="hello" defaultFlags={{ name: 'world' }} component={Greeting} />
    <Task match={[ "login", "l" ]} component={Login} />
    <Task match="*" component={Help} isHelp />
</Switch>

PROPS

• match : a string / array of matching keywords. * will always match.
• defaultFlags : default flags passed through the component's props if user don't fill them.
• component : the component to render if a task matches.
• isHelp : pass through helpData to your component, an extra prop with your defaultFlags and match keys.

Note : Every flags user type would get to the reached component in a prop called flags.

HELP COMPONENT

This handy component use helpData to render a basic help message.

Disclamer

This package is in active development. I still have a lot of features to integrate and edges to smooth. However, I'll try not break things and release bugged stuff.

If you've spotted any problems, please fill an issue. Thanks!
