Interface JackOptions

Whether to allow positional arguments

Default

true
Copy

Environment object to read/write. Defaults process.env. No effect if envPrefix is not set.

Prefix to use when reading/writing the environment variables

If not specified, environment behavior will not be available.

Stop parsing flags and opts at the first positional argument. This is to support cases like cmd [flags] <subcmd> [options], where each subcommand may have different options. This effectively treats any positional as a -- argument. Only relevant if allowPositionals is true.

To do subcommands, set this option, look at the first positional, and parse the remaining positionals as appropriate.

Default

false
Copy

Conditional stopAtPositional. If set to a (string)=>boolean function, will be called with each positional argument encountered. If the function returns true, then parsing will stop at that point.

A short usage string. If not provided, will be generated from the options provided, but that can of course be rather verbose if there are a lot of options.
