The lightweight Node arguments parser

GitHub |NPM

npm i gar

constargs=require('gar')(process.argv.slice(2))console.log(args)

So for:-h hey --toggle -ac --hey=hi -spaced "hey there" -num 1 lone

{"h":"hey","toggle":true,"a":true,"c":true,"hey":"hi","spaced":"hey there","num":1,"_": ["lone"]}

gar is way more lightweight than other argument parsing packages.

Here's a size comparison table:
