# EOL Tools

A set of tools for working with EOL markings in files.

## Installation

Install using npm:

```BASH
npm install -g eol-tools
```

## Usage

At any time, you can run `eol-tools --help` to get help from the command line.

### Analyzing the line endings of files

You can use eol-tools to analyze the EOL markings of files and report back what they are, including mixed EOL usage and indeterminante usage:

```BASH
eol-tools [a|analayze] [directory...]
```

Each argument after `a` or `analyze` is treated as a separate directory, so you can do things like this:

```BASH
eol-tools a ./src ./dist
```

It will print out the results and indicate one of five possible states:
- None: there were no line endings detected at all, so the EOL type could not be determined. This typically happens on empty files
- UNIX: all EOL markings are `\n`
- Windows: all EOL markings are `\r\n`
- Apple: all EOL markings are `\r` (where did you find this relic?)
- Mixed: there is a cominbination of different markings used in the file

### Converting the line endings of files

**WARNING:** this command is _not_ well tested. Since it's a destructive operation, be careful with it.

You can normalize the line endings by running the following:

```BASH
eol-tools [c|convert] [-e windows|unix] [...]
```

You can specify if you want UNIX-style line endings (`\n`, the default) or Windows-style line endings (`\r\n`) by using the `-e` flag.
For example, to convert all files to UNIX-style line endings, you would run:

```BASH
eol-tools c ./src ./dist
```

or convert them to Windows-style line endings with:

```BASH
eol-tools c -e windows ./src ./dist
```
