JarCastingRespond
node-respond is an auto-responding Async CLI/CMD wrapper for NodeJS with a syntax based on node-suppose by jprichardson (https://github.com/jprichardson/node-suppose).
Why?
After searching around for a super simple way to format a HDD in NodeJS I settled on using nodes child_proccess, but found responding to questions from the CLI an absolute nightmare of spaghetti, and so this was born!
Installation
npm install respond
It's really that easy!
Usage
Note: you can set these in any order you please.
Initiate the funtion: var respond = require('respond');
Set responses: respond.on('what to listen for', 'what to respond with') NOTE: they don't have to be in order!
Set debug: respond.debug(function(msg){ /*Handle message data*/ }) Debug reports all strings to any functions you set to it.
Set error handlers: respond.error(function(errMsg){ /*Handle Error*/ })
Set end handlers: respond.end(function(exitCode){ /*Handle End*/ })
Example
var respond = require('respond');
respond('npm', ['init'])
.on(/name\: \([\w|\-]+\)[\s]*/, 'awesome_package')
.on('version: (0.0.0) ', '0.0.1')
.on('description: ',"It's an awesome package man!")
.on('entry point: (index.js) ',"")
.on('test command: ','npm test')
.on('git repository: ', "")
.on('keywords: ', 'awesome, cool')
.on('author: ', 'Shane Gadsby')
.on('license: (BSD) ', 'MIT')
.on('ok? (yes) ', 'yes')
.error(function(err){
console.log(err.message);
})
.end(function(code){
console.log('Exit code: ', code)
})
