A collection of general purpose check functions for yargs and Black Flag
A collection of general purpose check functions for yargs and Black Flag.
To install:
npm install @black-flag/checks
BFC provides the below functions, each of which can be plugged into Black Flag's
(or Yargs's) check
builder property.
⪢ API reference:
checkArrayNoConflicts
Warning
A non-array type option will always fail this check regardless of the argument value.
This check passes when at most only one element from each conflict
tuple is
present in the array.
import { withBuilderExtensions } from '@black-flag/extensions';

x: {
string: true,
array: true,
check: checkArrayNoConflicts('x', [
['1', '2'], // <-- one "conflict tuple"
['3', '4', '5'] // <-- another "conflict tuple"
])
}
});
export const handler = withHandlerExtensions(async (argv) => {
// ...
});

⪢ API reference:
checkIsNotNegative
This check passes when an argument value is a non-negative number.
import { withBuilderExtensions } from '@black-flag/extensions';
import { checkArrayNoConflicts } from '@black-flag/checks';
export const name = 'my-command';
export const [builder, withHandlerExtensions] = withBuilderExtensions({
x: {
number: true,
check: checkIsNotNegative('x')
}

This is a CJS2 package with statically-analyzable exports
built by Babel for use in Node.js versions that are not end-of-life. For
TypeScript users, this package supports both "Node10"
and "Node16"
module
resolution strategies.
Expand details
That means both CJS2 (via require(...)
) and ESM (via import { ... } from ...
or await import(...)
) source will load this package from the same entry points
when using Node. This has several benefits, the foremost being: less code
shipped/smaller package size, avoiding dual package
hazard entirely, distributables are not
packed/bundled/uglified, a drastically less complex build process, and CJS
consumers aren't shafted.
Each entry point (i.e. ENTRY
) in package.json
's
exports[ENTRY]
object includes one or more export
conditions. These entries may or may not include: an
exports[ENTRY].types
condition pointing to a type
declaration file for TypeScript and IDEs, a
exports[ENTRY].module
condition pointing to
(usually ESM) source for Webpack/Rollup, a exports[ENTRY].node
and/or
exports[ENTRY].default
condition pointing to (usually CJS2) source for Node.js
require
/import
and for browsers and other environments, and other
conditions not enumerated here. Check the
package.json file to see which export conditions are
supported.
Note that, regardless of the { "type": "..." }
specified in
package.json
, any JavaScript files written in ESM
syntax (including distributables) will always have the .mjs
extension. Note
also that package.json
may include the
sideEffects
key, which is almost always false
for
optimal tree shaking where appropriate.
