arguments

= Node Arguments A simple command line arguments parser for node.js... Yes, another! :)

== Usage {{{ var arguments = require('./path/to/node-arguments');

arguments.parse([ {'name': /^(-h|--help)$/, 'expected': null, 'callback': printHelp} ,{'name': /^(-b|--beatle)$/, 'expected': /^(george|paul|ringo|john)$/i, 'callback': setupBeatle} ,{'name': /^(-v|--volume)$/, 'expected': /^([0-9]|1[0-1])$/, 'callback': setupVolume} ], main, invalidArgument);

function printHelp(end){ console.log('----------\nA pretty help message.'); end(); }

function setupBeatle(end, beatle){ console.log('----------\n%s rocks!', beatle); end(); }

function setupVolume(end, volume){ console.log('----------\n%s is a number from 0 to 11', volume); end(); }

function main(){ console.log('----------\nEverything is set.\n\nHello World!\n\n') }

function invalidArgument(arg, value_missing){ console.log('----------\nError: the argument %s %s', arg, (value_missing?'expects a value':'is not valid')) }

/* Examples: node examples/example1.js node examples/example1.js --help node examples/example1.js --beatle node examples/example1.js --beatle bieber node examples/example1.js --beatle george -v 11 */
