ode v0.0.3

Ode

Zero overhead CLI adapter for Node modules.

// greeter.js
module.exports = function (options) {
  console.log("Howdy, " + options.name + "!");
  console.log(options.number * options.factor);
  if (options.verbose === true) {
    console.log("Features: Numbers are casted to numbers\n" +
                "unassigned flags are casted to `true` values\n" +
                "otherwise the value is taken as string");
  }
}

ode greeter --name=Johnny --number=2 --factor=4 --verbose

It can also be used programmatically to make CLIs out of your modules:

var Ode = require("ode");
var yourModule = require("your-module");

Ode(process.argv, function (options) {
  yourModule(options);
});

Installation

npm install -g ode

CoffeeScript

Because it is so widespread, Ode comes with support for CoffeeScript out of the box. If you want to use another dialect/transpiler, please pull request.
