Base-cli-schema NPM

base-cli-schema

Schema for the base-cli plugin, used for normalizing argv values before passing them to cli.process().

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install base-cli-schema --save

Usage

var argv = require('minimist')(process.argv.slice(2));
var Base = require('base');
var cliSchema = require('base-cli-schema');

var app = new Base();
app.use(cli());
var schema = cliSchema(app);

var obj = schema.normalize(argv);
console.log(obj);

Custom fields

Field names correspond to properties on the parsed argv object.

var schema = cliSchema(app)
  .field('foo', 'string', {
    normalize: function(val, key, config, schema) {
      // do stuff to val
      return 'bar';
    }
  })

var obj = schema.normalize(argv);
console.log(obj);
//=> {foo: 'bar'}
