# Chen.js :smiley_cat:

:smiley_cat: Node.JS tool to parse cli arguments, enviroment variables and load configs from .js files 

## CLI arguments parser

```js

// Called with args:

// --prop 100 --flag -abc input output --type="pdf document" -- "more unnamed args" -not-a-a-flag

require('chen.js').args();

/**

{

	_: ['input', 'output', 'more unnamed args', '-not-a-a-flag'],

	prop: 100,

	flag: true,

	a: true,

	b: true,

    c: true,

	type: 'pdf document',

}

**/

```

## Config loader

```js

/**

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.js` by default

*/

const config = require('chen.js').config();

```

```js

/**

* Loads `${PWD}/.cfg.js`

*/

const config = require('chen.js').config('.cfg.js');

```

```js

/**

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.js`

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.dev.js` and overrides previous config

*/

const config = require('chen.js').config(['.config.js', '.config.dev.js']);

```

```js

/**

* Assuming called with CLI args: --config=.config.dev.js

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.js`

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.dev.js` and overrides previous config

*/

const config = require('chen.js').config();

```

```js

/**

* Assuming called with CLI args: --config=.config.dev.js --config=.config.dev2.js

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.js`

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.dev.js` and overrides previous config

* Loads `${PWD}/.config.dev2.js` and overrides previous config

*/

const config = require('chen.js').config();

```

## Env parser

Loads and parses environment variables and .env files (via dotenv package).

```js

const env = require('chen').env();

```
