yargs-command-wrapper v1.0.7-1
About
This wrapper enables the parsing of commands and subcommands into a unified set of types that can be handled independently. Additionally, it simplifies the process of creating a handler for these commands
The inferred union type of the parsed arguments is as follows:
type ParsedArgs =
| { command: "server"; subcommand: "start"; argv: { port: number; } }
| { command: "client"; subcommand: "connect"; argv: { host: string; port: number; } }
| { command: "client"; subcommand: "config"; subsubcommand: "get"; argv: { key?: string; file: string; } }
| { command: "client"; subcommand: "config"; subsubcommand: "set"; argv: { key: string; value: string; file: string; } }
Installation
npm install --save yargs-command-wrapper

API might change in the future.
