When running the command ts-node index.ts -ab --path some/nested/path the flags object should resemble the following:

{a: true, b: true, path: 'some/nested/path'}

If you're using commonjs with require statments it would look like this.

// index.js
const flags = require('@utility_belt/flags').default

other examples

import { flags } from '@utility_belt/flags'
// commonjs
const { flags } = require('@utility_belt/flags')

const testArray = ['-ab', '--path', 'some/nested/path']
const output = flags(testArray) 
// output would be the same as previous examples
