easily create complex multi-column command-line-interfaces.
var ui = require('cliui')({
width: 80
})
ui.div('Usage: $0 [command] [options]')
ui.div({
text: 'Options:',
padding: [2, 0, 2, 0]
})
ui.div(
{
text: "-f, --file",
width: 40,
padding: [0, 4, 0, 4]
},
{
text: "the file to load",
width: 25
},
{
text: "[required]",
align: 'right'
}
)
console.log(ui.toString())
cliui exposes a simple layout DSL:
If you create a single ui.row
, passing a string rather than an
object:
\n
: characters will be interpreted as new rows.\t
: characters will be interpreted as new columns.as an example...
var ui = require('./')({
width: 60
})
ui.div(
'Usage: node ./bin/foo.js\n' +
' <regex>\t provide a regex\n' +
' <glob>\t provide a glob\t [required]'
)
console.log(ui.toString())
will output:
Usage: node ./bin/foo.js
<regex> provide a regex
<glob> provide a glob [required]
cliui = require('cliui')
Specify the maximum width of the UI being generated.
Enable or disable the wrapping of text in a column.
Create a row with any number of columns, a column can either be a string, or an object with the following options:
right
or center
.[top, right, bottom, left]
.Similar to div
, except the next row will be appended without
a new line being created.
