Node CLI Template

This is a simple starter project for creating a CLI with Node. Includes, out of the box:

• Full TypeScript Support
• Uses Commander.js to parse the sub-commands and options
• LocalStorage API support to persist data between runs (stored in the cache directory)
• Loading environment variables from .env courtesy of dotenv
• has built-in SQLite set up so you can save application data
• Built-in ORM for SQLite via Sequelize
• Supports migrations via Sequelize CLI (and generation of Models, Seeds, etc.)
• interactively prompt the user with Inquirer.js
• API calls over http(s) via Axios

Important

Requires Node 18 or higher.

TODO:

• Integrate Ink: 🌈 React for interactive command-line apps
• Devise and document a method to include the CLI within other apps (for example to use this as a very nice task runner)
