peowlyCommands(commands: CliCommands, options: CliOptions, meta?: PeowlyMeta | undefined): Promise<void>

PeowlyCommandMissingError

Thrown when peowlyCommands() is given a command that it can not find. Comes with a commandName property and a showHelp() function. The latter works like the showHelp() of peowly
