Release Notes
tj/commander.js
v6.0.0
Added
- add support for variadic options ([#1250])
- allow options to be added with just a short flag ([#1256])
-
Breaking the option property has same case as flag. e.g. flag
-naccessed asopts().n(previously uppercase)
-
Breaking the option property has same case as flag. e.g. flag
- Breaking throw an error if there might be a clash between option name and a Command property, with advice on how to resolve ([#1275])
Fixed
- Options which contain -no- in the middle of the option flag should not be treated as negatable. ([#1301])
v5.1.0
Added
- support for multiple command aliases, the first of which is shown in the auto-generated help ([#531], [#1236])
- configuration support in
addCommand()forhiddenandisDefault([#1232])
Fixed
- omit masked help flags from the displayed help ([#645], [#1247])
- remove old short help flag when change help flags using
helpOption([#1248])
Changed
- remove use of
argumentsto improve auto-generated help in editors ([#1235]) - rename
.command()configurationnoHelptohidden(but not remove old support) ([#1232]) - improvements to documentation
- update dependencies
- update tested versions of node
- eliminate lint errors in TypeScript ([#1208])
v5.0.0
Added
- support for nested commands with action-handlers ([#1][#764] [#1149])
-
.addCommand()for adding a separately configured command ([#764][#1149]) - allow a non-executable to be set as the default command ([#742][#1149])
- implicit help command when there are subcommands (previously only if executables) ([#1149])
- customise implicit help command with
.addHelpCommand()([#1149]) - display error message for unknown subcommand, by default ([#432][#1088] [#1149])
- display help for missing subcommand, by default ([#1088][#1149])
- combined short options as single argument may include boolean flags and value flag and value (e.g.
-a -b -p 80can be written as-abp80) ([#1145]) -
.parseOption()includes short flag and long flag expansions ([#1145]) -
.helpInformation()returns help text as a string, previously a private routine ([#1169]) -
.parse()implicitly usesprocess.argvif arguments not specified ([#1172]) - optionally specify where
.parse()arguments "from", if not following node conventions ([#512][#1172]) - suggest help option along with unknown command error ([#1179])
- TypeScript definition for
commandsproperty ofCommand([#1184]) - export
programproperty ([#1195]) -
createCommandfactory method to simplify subclassing ([#1191])
Fixed
- preserve argument order in subcommands ([#508][#962] [#1138])
- do not emit
command:*for executable subcommands ([#809][#1149]) - action handler called whether or not there are non-option arguments ([#1062][#1149])
- combining option short flag and value in single argument now works for subcommands ([#1145])
- only add implicit help command when it will not conflict with other uses of argument ([#1153][#1149])
- implicit help command works with command aliases ([#948][#1149])
- options are validated whether or not there is an action handler ([#1149])
Changed
-
Breaking
.argscontains command arguments with just recognised options removed ([#1032][#1138]) - Breaking display error if required argument for command is missing ([#995][#1149])
- tighten TypeScript definition of custom option processing function passed to
.option()([#1119]) -
Breaking
.allowUnknownOption()([#802][#1138])- unknown options included in arguments passed to command action handler
- unknown options included in
.args
- only recognised option short flags and long flags are expanded (e.g.
-abor--foo=bar) ([#1145]) -
Breaking
.parseOptions()([#1138])-
argsin returned result renamedoperandsand does not include anything after first unknown option -
unknownin returned result has arguments after first unknown option including operands, not just options and values
-
-
Breaking
.on('command:*', callback)and other command events passed (changed) results from.parseOptions, i.e. operands and unknown ([#1138]) - refactor Option from prototype to class ([#1133])
- refactor Command from prototype to class ([#1159])
- changes to error handling ([#1165])
- throw for author error, not just display message
- preflight for variadic error
- add tips to missing subcommand executable
- TypeScript fluent return types changed to be more subclass friendly, return
thisrather thanCommand([#1180]) -
.parseAsyncreturnsPromise<this>to be consistent with.parse()([#1180]) - update dependencies
Removed
- removed EventEmitter from TypeScript definition for Command, eliminating implicit peer dependency on
@types/node([#1146]) - removed private function
normalize(the functionality has been integrated intoparseOptions) ([#1145]) -
parseExpectedArgsis now private ([#1149])
Migration Tips
If you use .on('command:*') or more complicated tests to detect an unrecognised subcommand, you may be able to delete the code and rely on the default behaviour.
If you use program.args or more complicated tests to detect a missing subcommand, you may be able to delete the code and rely on the default behaviour.
If you use .command('*') to add a default command, you may be be able to switch to isDefault:true with a named command.

Breaking keep command object out of program.args when action handler called ([#1048])
- also, action handler now passed array of unknown arguments
- complain about unknown options when program argument supplied and action handler ([#1049])
- this changes parameters to
command:*event to include unknown arguments
- this changes parameters to
- removed deprecated
customFdsoption from call tochild_process.spawn([#1052]) - rework TypeScript declarations to bring all types into imported namespace ([#1081])
Migration Tips
Testing for no arguments
If you were previously using code like:
if (!program.args.length) ...
a partial replacement is:
if (program.rawArgs.length < 3) ...
v3.0.2
Fixed
- Improve tracking of executable subcommands.
Changed
- update development dependencies
Credits:
- issue identified by Checkmarx Application Security Research Team
v3.0.1
Added
- .name and .usage to README (#1010)
- Table of Contents to README (#1010)
- TypeScript definition for
executableFilein CommandOptions (#1028)
Changed
- consistently use
constrather thanvarin README (#1026)
Fixed
- help for sub commands with custom executableFile (#1018)
v3.0.0
- Add option to specify executable file name (#999)
- e.g.
.command('clone', 'clone description', { executableFile: 'myClone' }) - Change docs for
.commandto contrast action handler vs git-style executable. (#938 #990) -
Breaking Change TypeScript to use overloaded function for
.command. (#938 #990) - Change to use straight quotes around strings in error messages (like 'this' instead of `this') (#915)
- Add TypeScript "reference types" for node (#974)
- Add support for hyphen as an option argument in subcommands (#697)
- Add support for a short option flag and its value to be concatenated for action handler subcommands (#599)
- e.g.
-p 80can also be supplied as-p80
- e.g.
- Add executable arguments to spawn in win32, for git-style executables (#611)
- e.g.
node --harmony myCommand.js clone
- e.g.
- Add parent command as prefix of subcommand in help (#980)
- Add optional custom description to
.version(#963)- e.g.
program.version('0.0.1', '-v, --vers', 'output the current version')
- e.g.

.helpOption(flags, description)routine to customise help flags and description (#963)- e.g.
.helpOption('-e, --HELP', 'read more information')
- e.g.
- Fix behavior of --no-* options (#795)
- can now define both
--fooand--no-foo -
Breaking custom event listeners:
--no-fooon cli now emitsoption:no-foo(previouslyoption:foo) -
Breaking default value: defining
--no-fooafter defining--fooleaves the default value unchanged (previously set it to false) - allow boolean default value, such as from environment (#987)
- can now define both
- Increment inspector port for spawned subcommands (#991)
- e.g.
node --inspect myCommand.js clone
- e.g.
- e.g.
Migration Tips
The custom event for a negated option like --no-foo is option:no-foo (previously option:foo).
program
.option('--no-foo')
.on('option:no-foo', () => {
console.log('removing foo');
});
When using TypeScript, adding a command does not allow an explicit undefined for an unwanted executable description (e.g. for a command with an action handler).
program
.command('action1', undefined, { noHelp: true }) // No longer valid
.command('action2', { noHelp: true }) // Correct
