Properties

optional
--: TDoubleDash = false

When true, populate the result _ with everything before the -- and the result ['--'] with everything after the --.

optional
alias: TAliases

An object mapping string names to strings or arrays of string argument names to use as aliases.

optional
boolean: TBooleans | ReadonlyArray<Extract<TBooleans, string>>

A boolean, string or array of strings to always treat as booleans. If true will treat all double hyphenated arguments without equal signs as boolean (e.g. affects --foo, not -f or --foo=bar). All boolean arguments will be set to false by default.

optional
default: TDefault & Defaults<TBooleans, TStrings>

An object mapping string argument names to default values.

optional
stopEarly: boolean

When true, populate the result _ with everything after the first non-option.

optional
string: TStrings | ReadonlyArray<Extract<TStrings, string>>

A string or array of strings argument names to always treat as strings.

optional
collect: TCollectable | ReadonlyArray<Extract<TCollectable, string>>

A string or array of strings argument names to always treat as arrays. Collectable options can be used multiple times. All values will be collected into one array. If a non-collectable option is used multiple times, the last value is used. All Collectable arguments will be set to [] by default.

optional
negatable: TNegatable | ReadonlyArray<Extract<TNegatable, string>>

A string or array of strings argument names which can be negated by prefixing them with --no-, like --no-config.

optional
unknown: (
arg: string,
key?: string,
value?: unknown,
) => unknown

A function which is invoked with a command line parameter not defined in the options configuration object. If the function returns false, the unknown option is not added to parsedArgs.
