Commander.js - Simplified Node.js Command-Line Interfaces
Commander.js is a leading Node.js library designed to simplify the process of building robust command-line interfaces (CLIs). It provides powerful parsing for options, arguments, and sub-commands, along with automatic help text generation.
Project Introduction
Summary
Commander.js is a lightweight yet powerful library for Node.js, providing a fluent API for creating command-line applications with ease. It handles argument parsing, command definition, and help output out of the box.
Problem Solved
Developing command-line interfaces in Node.js from scratch can be tedious, involving manual parsing of arguments, handling help messages, and structuring commands. Commander.js abstracts away these complexities, allowing developers to focus on application logic.
Core Features
Option Parsing
Define options with short and long flags, type parsing, default values, and validation.
Command Structure
Structure your CLI with nested commands and actions for complex applications.
Automatic Help Text
Automatically generates formatted help messages based on defined options and commands.
