🦪 zx-extra

zx with some extras

Requirements

• Node.js >= 16.0.0
• Bun >= 1.0.12

Install

# npm
npm i zx-extra

# yarn
yarn add zx-extra

Usage

Inherits zx, so all original methods are available. Follow the upstream docs for details.

Extras

ip

Resolves the current IP address via node-ip.

import {ip} from 'zx-extra'

ip.address() // 1.2.3.4

semver

Semantic versioning API provided by node-semver.

import {semver} from 'zx-extra'

semver.gte('1.0.1', '1.0.0')

ver

Asserts the version of the specified package or binary against the semver range.

import {ver} from 'zx-extra'

ver('ip')           // '1.1.8'
ver('git')          // '2.37.0'
ver('git', '>=2')   // '2.37.0'
ver('git', '>=5')   // Error: git@2.37.0 does not satisfy >=5

tcping

Checks the network availability of the specified gateway via is-reachable.

import {tcping} from 'zx-extra'

await tcping('example.com:443') // true
await tcping('unknown:1234')    // false

tempy

Creates temp dirs and files.

import {tempy} from 'zx-extra'

temporaryFile()       // '/private/var/folders/p0/p7xckky93s30rshd51gs4pdc0000gn/T/1b7e9277860eb90b94aad816d4f66f8e'
temporaryDirectory()  // '/private/var/folders/p0/p7xckky93s30rshd51gs4pdc0000gn/T/1b7e9277860eb90b94aad816d4f66f8e'

copy

Provides globby-boosted copying API.

import {copy} from 'zx-extra'

await copy({
  from:       'src/**/*.js',
  to:         'dist/',
  baseFrom,   // process.cwd()
  baseTo,     // process.cwd(),
  debug,      // () => {}
  ignoreFiles // undefined
})

INI

Provides INI API.

import {INI} from 'zx-extra'

const ini = `[database]
user = dbuser
password = dbpassword
`
  const parsed = INI.parse(ini)
  parsed.database.user //  'dbuser'
  INI.stringify(parsed, {whitespace: true}) //  ini

SSRI

Exposes SSRI API

import {SSRI} from 'zx-extra'

const integrity = 'sha512-9KhgCRIx/AmzC8xqYJTZRrnO8OW2Pxyl2DIMZSBOr0oDvtEFyht3xpp71j/r/pAe1DM+JI/A+line3jUBgzQ7A==?foo'
// Parsing and serializing
const parsed = SSRI.parse(integrity)
SSRI.stringify(parsed) // === integrity (works on non-Integrity objects)
parsed.toString() // === integrity

ctx

async_hooks-driven scope isolator. Creates a separate zx-context for the specified function.

import {ctx} from 'zx/experimental'

const _$ = $
ctx(async ($) => {
  await sleep(10)
  cd('/foo')
  // $.cwd refers to /foo
  // _$.cwd === $.cwd
})

ctx(async ($) => {
  await sleep(20)
  // _$.cwd refers to /foo
  // but _$.cwd !== $.cwd
})

const ref = $.bind(null)
ctx(($) => {
  ref === $ // true
}, ref)

$.preferLocal

In npm run scripts you can execute locally installed binaries by name. This enables the same for zx.

$`terser input.js --compress ecma=2015,computed_props=false`

Note, that yarn and npm modify env.$PATH value, so some */node_modules/.bin binaries are available for invocation. To disable this side-effect, append smth like PATH=$(env -i bash -c 'echo $PATH') to the command.

$.raw

Evaluates target cmd as is without shq.

const cmd = 'echo foo'
const msg = 'bar'
const output = (await $.raw`${cmd} ${msg}`).toString().trim()
// $ echo foo bar

$.verbose

Set to false by default.

$.trim

Applies .trim() to ProcessOutput string representation. Set true by default.

$.opt

Returns $ with the specified preset. Aliased for $.o.

const $$ = $.opt({verbose: false, spawn: customSpawn})

await $$`foo 'bar'`

createHook

Helper to create chainable extras.

const quiet = createHook({ verbose: false }, 'quiet')
const timeout = createHook(
  null,
  'timeout',
  (p, t, signal) => {
    if (!t) return p
    let timer = setTimeout(() => p.kill(signal), t)

    return Object.assign(
      p.finally(() => clearTimeout(timer)),
      p
    )
  },
  true
)

const p = $`sleep 9999`
await quiet(timeout(100, 'SIGKILL')(p))
await $`sleep 9999`.quiet().timeout(100, 'SIGKILL')
await quiet(timeout(100, 'SIGKILL')`sleep 9999`)

$.silent

merged as bf88f50
Sets verbose = false for a single invocation.

await $.silent`echo foo`
// <no output in console>

$.fs / global.fs

merged as d8b6b87
Refers to fs-extra instead of standard Node.js fs module.

await fs.copy('/tmp/myfile', '/tmp/mynewfile')

global.argv

merged as d8b6b87
Represents parsed with minimist script arguments

// zx-extra test.mjs --foo=bar
argv
{ _: [ 'test.mjs' ], foo: 'bar' }
