# Command Line Argumets Parser
A library that allows to parse command line arguments into hash-table or object by scheme.

# Installation
Install library to your project:
```
$ npm install cli-argv-parser
```

# How to use
You able to put only arguments array to parser and it will be return a hash-table (key-value).
But if you want to parse arguments into object - use template scheme with keys and required types.

## Scheme:
```javascript
const scheme = {
file: String,
force: Boolean,
count: Number,
};
```
The template is `key`: `type`. Parser will try to convert argument into required type. By default single values will be always parsed into `Boolean` value.

## Example of result:
- Without scheme: `{ '--file': 'app.js', force: true, '--count': '20' }`
- With scheme: `{ file: 'app.js', force: true, count: 20 }`
