Argument Parsing

This feature allows you to parse command-line arguments. You can define options (like '-v' for verbose output) and then parse the arguments provided to your application. This is useful for creating command-line tools with various options.

{"import { ArgumentParser } from 'argparse';\nconst parser = new ArgumentParser({\n  description: 'Argument parser example'\n});\n\nparser.add_argument('-v', '--verbose', {\n  help: 'increase output verbosity',\n  action: 'store_true'\n});\n\nconst args = parser.parse_args();\nconsole.log(args.verbose);"}

Sub-commands

This feature demonstrates how to use sub-commands in your application, allowing for a more organized and modular command-line interface. Each sub-command can have its own set of arguments.

{"import { ArgumentParser } from 'argparse';\nconst parser = new ArgumentParser({\n  description: 'Sub-command example'\n});\n\nconst subparsers = parser.add_subparsers({\n  title: 'subcommands',\n  dest: 'subcommand_name'\n});\n\nconst start = subparsers.add_parser('start', { add_help: true });\nstart.add_argument('-p', '--port', {\n  help: 'Port to start the server on',\n  default: 8080\n});\n\nconst args = parser.parse_args();\nconsole.log(args);"}
