## Introduction
|
|
6
|
+
|
|
7
|
+
**C**ommand **A**nd **C**onquer is a JavaScript library for building CLI apps.
|
|
8
|
+
|
|
9
|
+
## Features
|
|
10
|
+
|
|
11
|
+
- **Super light-weight**: No dependency, just a single file.
|
|
12
|
+
- **Easy to learn**. There're only 4 APIs you need to learn for building simple CLIs: `cli.option` `cli.version` `cli.help` `cli.parse`.
|
|
13
|
+
- **Yet so powerful**. Enable features like default command, git-like subcommands, validation for required arguments and options, variadic arguments, dot-nested options, automated help message generation and so on.
|
|
14
|
+
- **Developer friendly**. Written in TypeScript.

## Usage
|
|
70
|
+
|
|
71
|
+
### Simple Parsing
|
|
72
|
+
|
|
73
|
+
Use CAC as simple argument parser:
|
|
74
|
+
|
|
75
|
+
```js
|
|
76
|
+
// examples/basic-usage.js
|
|
77
|
+
const cli = require('cac')()
|
|
78
|
+
|
|
79
|
+
cli.option('--type <type>', 'Choose a project type', {
|
|
80
|
+
default: 'node',
|
|
81
|
+
})
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
const parsed = cli.parse()
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
console.log(JSON.stringify(parsed, null, 2))
|
|
86
|
+
```
|
|
87
|
+
|
|
88
|
+

|
|
89
|
+
|
|
90
|
+
### Display Help Message and Version
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
```js
|
|
93
|
+
// examples/help.js
|
|
94
|
+
const cli = require('cac')()
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+
cli.option('--type [type]', 'Choose a project type', {
|
|
97
|
+
default: 'node',
|
|
98
|
+
})
|
|
99
|
+
cli.option('--name <name>', 'Provide your name')
|
|
100
|
+
|
|
101
|
+
cli.command('lint [...files]', 'Lint files').action((files, options) => {
|
|
102
|
+
console.log(files, options)
|
|
103
|
+
})
|
|
104
|
+
|
|
105
|
+
// Display help message when `-h` or `--help` appears
|
|
106
|
+
cli.help()
|
|
107
|
+
// Display version number when `-v` or `--version` appears
|
|
108
|
+
// It's also used in help message
|
|
109
|
+
cli.version('0.0.0')
|
|
110
|
+
|
|
111
|
+
cli.parse()
|
|
112
|
+
```
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+

|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
### Command-specific Options
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
You can attach options to a command.
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
```js
|
|
121
|
+
const cli = require('cac')()
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
cli
|
|
124
|
+
.command('rm <dir>', 'Remove a dir')
|
|
125
|
+
.option('-r, --recursive', 'Remove recursively')
|
|
126
|
+
.action((dir, options) => {
|
|
127
|
+
console.log('remove ' + dir + (options.recursive ? ' recursively' : ''))
|
|
128
|
+
})
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
cli.help()
|
|
131
|
+
|
|
132
|
+
cli.parse()
|
|
133
|
+
```
|
|
134
|
+
|
|
135
|
+
A command's options are validated when the command is used. Any unknown options will be reported as an error. However, if an action-based command does not define an action, then the options are not validated. If you really want to use unknown options, use [`command.allowUnknownOptions`](#commandallowunknownoptions).
|
|
136
|
+
|
|
137
|
+
<img alt="command options" width="500" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/8784712/49065552-49dc8500-f259-11e8-9c7b-a7c32d70920e.png">
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
### Dash in option names
|
|
140
|
+
|
|
141
|
+
Options in kebab-case should be referenced in camelCase in your code:
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
```js
|
|
144
|
+
cli
|
|
145
|
+
.command('dev', 'Start dev server')
|
|
146
|
+
.option('--clear-screen', 'Clear screen')
|
|
147
|
+
.action((options) => {
|
|
148
|
+
console.log(options.clearScreen)
|
|
149
|
+
})
|
|
150
|
+
```
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
In fact `--clear-screen` and `--clearScreen` are both mapped to `options.clearScreen`.
|
|
153
|
+
|
|
154
|
+
### Brackets
|
|
155
|
+
|
|
156
|
+
When using brackets in command name, angled brackets indicate required command arguments, while square bracket indicate optional arguments.
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158
|
+
When using brackets in option name, angled brackets indicate that a string / number value is required, while square bracket indicate that the value can also be `true`.
|
|
159
|
+
|
|
160
|
+
```js
|
|
161
|
+
const cli = require('cac')()
|
|
162
|
+
|
|
163
|
+
cli
|
|
164
|
+
.command('deploy <folder>', 'Deploy a folder to AWS')
|
|
165
|
+
.option('--scale [level]', 'Scaling level')
|
|
166
|
+
.action((folder, options) => {
|
|
167
|
+
// ...
|
|
168
|
+
})
|
|
169
|
+
|
|
170
|
+
cli
|
|
171
|
+
.command('build [project]', 'Build a project')
|
|
172
|
+
.option('--out <dir>', 'Output directory')
|
|
173
|
+
.action((folder, options) => {
|
|
174
|
+
// ...
|
|
175
|
+
})
|
|
176
|
+
|
|
177
|
+
cli.parse()
|
|
178
|
+
```
|
|
179
|
+
|
|
180
|
+
### Negated Options
|
|
181
|
+
|
|
182
|
+
To allow an option whose value is `false`, you need to manually specify a negated option:
|
|
183
|
+
|
|
184
|
+
```js
|
|
185
|
+
cli
|
|
186
|
+
.command('build [project]', 'Build a project')
|
|
187
|
+
.option('--no-config', 'Disable config file')
|
|
188
|
+
.option('--config <path>', 'Use a custom config file')
|
|
189
|
+
```
|
|
190
|
+
|
|
191
|
+
This will let CAC set the default value of `config` to true, and you can use `--no-config` flag to set it to `false`.
|
|
192
|
+
|
|
193
|
+
### Variadic Arguments
|
|
194
|
+
|
|
195
|
+
The last argument of a command can be variadic, and only the last argument. To make an argument variadic you have to add `...` to the start of argument name, just like the rest operator in JavaScript. Here is an example:
|
|
196
|
+
|
|
197
|
+
```js
|
|
198
|
+
const cli = require('cac')()
|
|
199
|
+
|
|
200
|
+
cli
|
|
201
|
+
.command('build <entry> [...otherFiles]', 'Build your app')
|
|
202
|
+
.option('--foo', 'Foo option')
|
|
203
|
+
.action((entry, otherFiles, options) => {
|
|
204
|
+
console.log(entry)
|
|
205
|
+
console.log(otherFiles)
|
|
206
|
+
console.log(options)
|
|
207
|
+
})
|
|
208
|
+
|
|
209
|
+
cli.help()
|
|
210
|
+
|
|
211
|
+
cli.parse()
|
|
212
|
+
```
|
|
213
|
+
|
|
214
|
+
<img width="500" alt="2018-11-25 8 25 30" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/8784712/48979056-47125080-f0f0-11e8-9d8f-3219e0beb0ed.png">
|
|
215
|
+
|
|
216
|
+
### Dot-nested Options
|
|
217
|
+
|
|
218
|
+
Dot-nested options will be merged into a single option.
|
|
219
|
+
|
|
220
|
+
```js
|
|
221
|
+
const cli = require('cac')()
|
|
222
|
+
|
|
223
|
+
cli
|
|
224
|
+
.command('build', 'desc')
|
|
225
|
+
.option('--env <env>', 'Set envs')
|
|
226
|
+
.example('--env.API_SECRET xxx')
|
|
227
|
+
.action((options) => {
|
|
228
|
+
console.log(options)
|
|
229
|
+
})
|
|
230
|
+
|
|
231
|
+
cli.help()
|
|
232
|
+
|
|
233
|
+
cli.parse()
|
|
234
|
+
```
|
|
235
|

|
|
236
|
+

// Simply omit the command name, just brackets
|
|
247
|
+
.command('[...files]', 'Build files')
|
|
248
|
+
.option('--minimize', 'Minimize output')
|

+
```bash
|
|
260
|
+
node cli.js --include project-a
|
|
261
|
+
# The parsed options will be:
|
|
262
|
+
# { include: 'project-a' }
|
|
263
|
+
|
|
264
|
+
node cli.js --include project-a --include project-b
|
|
265
|
+
# The parsed options will be:
|
|
266
|
+
# { include: ['project-a', 'project-b'] }
|
|
267
|
+
```
|
|
268
|
+
|
|
269
|
+
### Error Handling
|
|
270
|
+
|
|
271
|
+
To handle command errors globally:
|
|
272
|
+
|
|
273
|
+
```js
|
|
274
|
+
try {
|
|
275
|
+
// Parse CLI args without running the command
|
|
276
|
+
cli.parse(process.argv, { run: false })
|
|
277
|
+
// Run the command yourself
|
|
278
|
+
// You only need `await` when your command action returns a Promise
|
|
279
|
+
await cli.runMatchedCommand()
|
|
280
|
+
} catch (error) {
|
|
281
|
+
// Handle error here..
|
|
282
|
+
// e.g.
|
|
283
|
+
// console.error(error.stack)
|
|
284
|
+
// process.exit(1)
|
|
285
|
+
}
|
|
286
|
+
```
|
|
287
|
+
|
|
288
|
+
### With TypeScript
|
|
289
|
+
|
|
290
|
+
First you need `@types/node` to be installed as a dev dependency in your project:
|
|
291
|
+
|
|
292
|
+
```bash
|
|
293
|
+
yarn add @types/node --dev
|
|
294
|
+
```
|
|
295
|
+
|
|
296
|
+
Then everything just works out of the box:
|
|
297
|
+
|
|
298
|
+
```js
|
|
299
|
+
const { cac } = require('cac')
|
|
300
|
+
// OR ES modules
|
|
301
|
+
import { cac } from 'cac'
|
|
302
|
+
```
|
|
303
|
+
|
|
304
|
+
### With Deno
|
|
305
|
+
|
|
306
|
+
```ts
|
|
307
|
+
import { cac } from 'https://unpkg.com/cac/mod.ts'
|
|
308
|
+
|
|
309
|
+
const cli = cac('my-program')
|
|
310
|
+
```
|
|
311
|
+
|
|
312
|
+

Below is a brief overview.
|
|
333
|
+
|
|
334
|
+
### CLI Instance
|
|
335
|
+
|
|
336
|
+
CLI instance is created by invoking the `cac` function:
|
|
337
|
+
|
|
338
|
+
```js
|
|
339
|
+
const cac = require('cac')
|
|
340
|
+
const cli = cac()
|
|
341
|
+
```
|
|
342
|
+
|
|
343
|
+
#### cac(name?)
|
|
344
|
+
|
|
345
|
+
Create a CLI instance, optionally specify the program name which will be used to display in help and version message. When not set we use the basename of `argv[1]`.
|
|
346
|
+
|
|
347
|
+
#### cli.command(name, description, config?)
|
|
348
|
+
|
|
349
|
+
- Type: `(name: string, description: string) => Command`
|
|
350
|
+
|
|
351
|
+
Create a command instance.
|
|
352
|
+
|
|
353
|
+
The option also accepts a third argument `config` for additional command config:
|
|
354
|
+
|
|
355
|
+
- `config.allowUnknownOptions`: `boolean` Allow unknown options in this command.
|
|
356
|
+
- `config.ignoreOptionDefaultValue`: `boolean` Don't use the options's default value in parsed options, only display them in help message.
|
|
357
|
+
|
|
358
|
+
#### cli.option(name, description, config?)
|
|
359
|
+
|
|
360
|
+
- Type: `(name: string, description: string, config?: OptionConfig) => CLI`
|
|
361
|
+
|
|
362
|
+
Add a global option.
|
|
363
|
+
|
|
364
|
+
The option also accepts a third argument `config` for additional option config:
|
|
365
|
+
|
|
366
|
+
- `config.default`: Default value for the option.
|
|
367
|
+
- `config.type`: `any[]` When set to `[]`, the option value returns an array type. You can also use a conversion function such as `[String]`, which will invoke the option value with `String`.
|
|
368
|
+
|
|
369
|
+
#### cli.parse(argv?)
|
|
370
|
+
|
|
371
|
+
- Type: `(argv = process.argv) => ParsedArgv`
|
|
372
|
+
|
|
373
|
+
```ts
|
|
374
|
+
interface ParsedArgv {
|
|
375
|
+
args: string[]
|
|
376
|
+
options: {
|
|
377
|
+
[k: string]: any
|
|
378
|
+
}
|
|
379
|
+
}
|
|
380
|
+
```
|
|
381
|
+
|
|
382
|
+
When this method is called, `cli.rawArgs` `cli.args` `cli.options` `cli.matchedCommand` will also be available.
|
|
383
|
+
|
|
384
|
+
#### cli.version(version, customFlags?)
|
|
385
|
+
|
|
386
|
+
- Type: `(version: string, customFlags = '-v, --version') => CLI`
|
|
387
|
+
|
|
388
|
+
Output version number when `-v, --version` flag appears.
|
|
389
|
+
|
|
390
|
+
#### cli.help(callback?)
|
|
391
|
+
|
|
392
|
+
- Type: `(callback?: HelpCallback) => CLI`
|
|
393
|
+
|

394
|
+
Output help message when `-h, --help` flag appears.
|
|
395
|
+

Optional `callback` allows post-processing of help text before it is displayed:
|
|
397
|
+
|
|
398
|
+
```ts
|
|
399
|
+
type HelpCallback = (sections: HelpSection[]) => void
|
|
400
|
+
|
|
401
|
+
interface HelpSection {
|
|
402
|
+
title?: string
|
|
403
|
+
body: string
|
|
404
|

}
|

|
|
418
|
+
|
|
419
|
+
### Command Instance
|
|
420
|
+
|
|
421
|
+
Command instance is created by invoking the `cli.command` method:
|
|
422
|
+
|
|
423
|
+
```js
|
|
424
|
+
const command = cli.command('build [...files]', 'Build given files')
|
|
425
|
+
```
|
|
426
|
+
|
|
427
|
+
#### command.option()
|
|
428
|
+
|
|
429
|
+
Basically the same as `cli.option` but this adds the option to specific command.
|
|
430
|
+
|
|
431
|
+
#### command.action(callback)
|
|
432
|
+
|
|
433
|
+
- Type: `(callback: ActionCallback) => Command`
|
|
434
|
+
|
|
435
|
+
Use a callback function as the command action when the command matches user inputs.
|
|
436
|
+
|
|
437
|
+
```ts
|
|
438
|
+
type ActionCallback = (
|
|
439
|
+
// Parsed CLI args
|
|
440
|
+
// The last arg will be an array if it's a variadic argument
|
|
441
|
+
...args: string | string[] | number | number[]
|
|
442
|
+
// Parsed CLI options
|
|
443
|
+
options: Options
|
|
444
|
+
) => any
|
|
445
|
+
|
|
446
|
+
interface Options {
|
|
447
|
+
[k: string]: any
|
|
448
|
+
}
|
|
449
|
+
```
|
|
450
|
+
|
|
451
|
+
#### command.alias(name)
|
|
452
|
+
|
|
453
|
+
- Type: `(name: string) => Command`
|
|
454
|
+
|
|
455
|
+
Add an alias name to this command, the `name` here can't contain brackets.
|
|
456
|
+
|
|
457
|
+
#### command.allowUnknownOptions()
|
|
458
|
+

459
|
+
- Type: `() => Command`
|
|
460
|
+
|
|
461
|
+
Allow unknown options in this command, by default CAC will log an error when unknown options are used.
|
|
462
|
+
|
|
463
|
+

|
|
464

Add an example which will be displayed at the end of help message.
|
|
468
|
+
|
|
469

```ts
|
|
470
|
+
type CommandExample = ((name: string) => string) | string
|

Listen to commands:
|
|
482
|
+
|
|
483
|

488
|
+
|
|
489
|

// Listen to the default command
|
|
490
|
+
cli.on('command:!', () => {
|
|
491
|
+
// Do something
|
|
492
|
+
})
|
|
493
|
+
|
|
494
|
+
// Listen to unknown commands
|
|
495
|
+
cli.on('command:*', () => {
|
|
496
|
+
console.error('Invalid command: %s', cli.args.join(' '))
|
|
497
|
+
process.exit(1)

498
|
+
})
|
|
499
|

## FAQ
|
|
502
|
+
|
|
503
|
+
### How is the name written and pronounced?
|
|
504
|
+
|
|
505
|
+
CAC, or cac, pronounced `C-A-C`.
|
|
506
|
+
|
|
507
|
+
This project is dedicated to our lovely C.C. sama. Maybe CAC stands for C&C as well :P
|
|

|
|
510
|
+
|
|
511
|
+
### Why not use Commander.js?
|
|
512
|
+
|
|
513
|
+
CAC is very similar to Commander.js, while the latter does not support dot nested options, i.e. something like `--env.API_SECRET foo`. Besides, you can't use unknown options in Commander.js either.
|
|
514
|
+
|
|
515
|
+
_And maybe more..._
|
|
516
|
+
|
|
517
|
+
Basically I made CAC to fulfill my own needs for building CLI apps like [Poi](https://poi.js.org), [SAO](https://sao.vercel.app) and all my CLI apps. It's small, simple but powerful :P
