Hi @ntwcklng, just discovered args
and I love the balance it strikes between features and simpleness. The implicit relation between the command definition and how the command binary file is called was the only confusing part for me. I think this will also be confusing for (potential) new contributors to a project using args
. Instead of needing to npm link
would you consider changing the command
API to accept a path to the command? This would make the linking unnecessary and the relation explicit.

I don't understand, this is from package.json of lib catalog
"bin": {
"catalog": "dist/cli/bin/catalog.js",
"catalog-start": "dist/cli/bin/catalog-start.js",
"catalog-build": "dist/cli/bin/catalog-build.js"
},
it uses args
and this fails
$ ./node_modules/.bin/catalog build
/myproject/node_modules/args/lib/utils.js:317
throw err;
Error: spawn catalog-build ENOENT
But if I had catalog build
in scripts
of package.json adn do npm run nameOfTheScript
it will work.
as the lib has all this commands in bin
section of packge.json all this binaries will be in ./node_modules/.bin/
so why can't args
find catalog-build
?
see interactivethings/catalog#408

Hey @safareli does this fix your problem: #46 (comment)
from args.
bin
part of package.json
is set up properly (see my last comment) not sure how npm link can help, as I just did npm i catalog
and after it i expect running ./node_modules/.bin/catalog start
to just work.
from args.
Ah okay, i assumed you've pulled it from github for developing.
Why whould you run ./node_modules/.bin/catalog start
instead of catalog start
?
from args.
As it's installed locally as dependency of another project. so it's in package.json#dependencies and i do npm i
and catalog is installed in ./node_modules/catalog
and as it has bin
in it's package.json there is also binary files in ./node_modules/.bin/
.
from args.
Can you share the repo or want to debug? Help is appreciated.
from args.
sure,
https://github.com/f-o-a-m/foam.css/blob/master/package.json#L6
here you can see I have this script "start": "catalog start",
If I do npm run start
it works fine,
but if i do ./node_modules/.bin/catalog
start it fails.
