@nuff-said/args

A compact and efficient CLI argument parser that supports all major argument formats, all packed into a raw code size of just 378 bytes! 3.4x smaller than the minzipped size of the most popular option, minimist, albeit missing a few features.

Type checking and parsing are non-goals, as a schema parser is a dedicated tool that should be used to this end.

const parseArgs = require('@nuff-said/args');
console.log(parseArgs(process.argv.slice(2)));

$ node index --bool=false --num 123 -ar -z false --test hey hey -x= -- --no -more -parse=ing   
{
  _: [ 'hey', '--no', '-more', '-parse=ing' ],
  bool: 'false',
  num: '123',
  a: true,
  r: true,
  z: 'false',
  test: 'hey',
  x: ''
}

Installation

$ npm i @nuff-said/args
