mongodb-js CLI Tools

0.0.3 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript abandoned

A small utility package (v0.0.3, no known release cadence) providing CLI helpers for mongodb-js projects. It includes basic functions for command parsing and output formatting. Not intended for general use; superseded by more modern CLI toolkits like commander or yargs. Limited documentation and no active development since 2016.

Basic usage to parse command-line arguments and display them.

cli.parse(process.argv.slice(2));
console.log('Parsed args:', cli.args);
console.log('Parsed flags:', cli.flags);
