Node module - CMD-Conf

A command line analyser for Node.JS. View NPM registry

This module analyses the command line syntax to extract parameters and return them into an associative array.

Example

I want to configure my listen port and activate the verbose mode like this :

$ node server.js -p 80 -v
or
$ node server.js --port 80 --verbose

server.js

 
    var cmdConf = require('cmd-conf');
    cmdConf.configure({
        listenPort:{ // Define the 'listenPort' key configuration
            key: 'port', // Configure command key name (different than param key)
            shortKey: 'p', // Configure the short key
            action: 'get', // Define action to get parameters in commande line.
            number: 1 // Define the number of parameters to get. (They must be consecutive)
            defaultValue: 85 // If the parameter not given, use the default value;
        },
        
        verbose:{
            shortKey: 'v',
            action: 'set', // Set a static value
            value: true // The value to set
        },
 
        // If de action is not define, the item is consider as a static configuration.
        staticObject:{
            value: true
        },
 
        staticString: 'foo bar'
    });
    
    var params = cmdConf.getParameters();
    
    var myPort = params.listenPort;
    var verbose = params.verbose;

If you give a simple string to the configure() method, witch represent the path of a JSON file, cmd-conf try to resolve path and load config from this file.
