string2argv

Parse a string into an argument array, do the job like process.argv for us.

This is a fork from string-argv, changes in this fork:

• rename package to string2argv.
• export extra string2argv & str2argv aliases.
• change export { xx as default } to export default xx.
• compatible with both ESM and CJS (by the change above).

Usage

ESM

import { string2argv } from 'string2argv'

const commandLineString = 'echo a b c -rvf --name "demo name"'

// output: [ 'echo', 'a', 'b', 'c', '-rvf', '--name', 'demo name' ]
console.log(string2argv(commandLineString))

CJS

const { default: string2argv } = require('string2argv')

const commandLineString = 'echo a b c -rvf --name "demo name"'

// output: [ 'echo', 'a', 'b', 'c', '-rvf', '--name', 'demo name' ]
console.log(string2argv(commandLineString))
