made with clipman

Let's try to pass it an option

clipman run hello-world --name javascript

Hello javascript!

Let's change our hello-world/clipman.json:

{
  "name": "hello-world",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Issue greetings",
  "entry": "main.js",
  "options": {
    "name": {
      "description": "Who to greet",
      "default": {
        "value": "world"
      }
    }
  }
}

Change world by node, save the file and then:

clipman run hello-world

Hello node!
