tooler v1.1.0

tooler

A small utility to spawn a node.js file from your project root, specified in package.json, regardless of how deep you are in your project's child folders.

This is useful when you need to maintain $PWD -- since npm run-script changes the process.cwd() to the package.json directory.

Note: This is experimental and subject to change.

Usage

First, install tooler globally:

npm install tooler -g

Now, let's say you have a Node tool:

myApp/tools/hello.js

console.log("Hello!", process.cwd(), process.argv[2])

Now, add the following to your package.json:

myApp/package.json

{
  ...
  "tooler": "./tools/hello.js"
  ...
}

Now, anywhere inside your project folder, you can run tooler:

$ cd src/buttons/
$ tooler button1.js
Hello! /prj/myApp/src/buttons button1.js
