RubyGems.org Adds New Maintainer Role
RubyGems.org has added a new "maintainer" role that allows for publishing new versions of gems. This new permission type is aimed at improving security for gem owners and the service overall.
Module for input/output management with nodejs.
To install the most recent release from npm, run:
npm install stdio
You can do many things with this module
var stdio = require('stdio');
var ops = stdio.getopt({
'check': {key: 'c', args: 2, description: 'What this option means'},
'map': {key: 'm', description: 'Another description', mandatory: true},
'kaka': {key: 'k', args: 2, mandatory: true},
'ooo': {key: 'o'}
});
console.log(ops);
If you run the previous example with the command
node pruebas.js -c 23 45 88 --map -k 23 44 cosa
Program output will be:
{ check: [ '23', '45' ],
args: [ '88', 'cosa' ],
map: true,
kaka: [ '23', '44' ] }
So you can check options:
if(ops.map){
// Your action
}
if(ops.kaka){
// Your action, using ops.kaka[0] or ops.kaka[1] or...
}
As you can see, every option in ops
object can has 3 different type of values:
true
if it has been specified without an args
attribute.string
if it has been specified with args: 1
.string
array, if it has been specified with args
>= 2.This module can generate an usage message automatically. You can use it when user specifies --help
option, which is automatically supported. This code:
var stdio = require('stdio');
var ops = stdio.getopt({
una: {description: 'Sets something to some value', key: 'u', args: 2, mandatory: true},
otra_muy_larga: {description: 'A boolean flag', key: 'o', mandatory: true},
una_sin_desc: {description: 'Another boolean flag'},
ultima: {description: 'A description', key: 'u', args: 1}
}, '[FILE1] [FILE2] ...'); // Optional extra arguments description
will produce the following output (if it is called with --help
flag):
USAGE: node something.js [OPTIONS] [FILE1] [FILE2] ...
-u, --una <ARG1> <ARG2> Sets something to some value (mandatory)
-o, --otra_muy_larga A boolean flag (mandatory)
--una_sin_desc Another boolean flag
-u, --ultima <ARG1> A description
If a non-spected option is given or a mandatory option is not, an error (followed by the usage message) will be shown, finishing your program automatically. It's cool, isn`t it?
var stdio = require('stdio');
stdio.read(function(data){
console.log(data);
});
This simple line:
stdio.printf('example %d: %s is %j\n', 2, 'any', {a: 2, b: [0, 2, 8], c: 'str'});
will produce the following output:
example 2: any is {"a":2,"b":[0,2,8],"c":"str"}
You can use %s
for strings, %d
for numbers (integer or floating-point ones), and %j
for JSON objects.
To run tests, use the following command from module's root:
npm test
-abc
instead of -a -b -c
.true
, a single string
or an array of strings
. Much easier to use than in previous releases (but incompatible with them, so be careful updating).stdio
