relatively-better-foreach-cli v1.0.3

foreach-cli

CLI utility to execute a command for each file matching a glob. This is a fork of foreach-cli, but the value of relDir is calculated better in order to make it more useful. The "reldir" variable is taken from the glob specified: it takes up to the last directory before there is a "*". So:

abc/123/**/*.js -> abc/123/
abc/12*/**/*.js -> abc/
abc -> abc/

Installation:

npm install foreach-cli

Usage:

Command Line

foreach -g <glob> -x <command to execute>

-x, --execute     Command to execute upon file addition/change

--version         Show version number
