How does commander.js work?

Commander.js is a command-line interface (CLI) framework that allows developers to create robust and user-friendly CLI tools in Node.js. It provides a simple API to define command-line options and arguments, and handles parsing and validation of input. Commander.js also supports custom help messages, version information, and automatic generation of help documentation based on the defined options and arguments. Additionally, Commander.js can be extended with custom functionality through middleware and custom commands.

const { program } = require("commander");

program
  .option("-n, --name ", "your name")
  .command("hello")
  .action(() => console.log(`Hello, ${program.name}!`));

program.parse(process.argv);

This program defines a command-line interface with a single option -n or --name, which specifies the user's name. It also defines a command hello that prints out a greeting using the name provided. When the program is run with node myprogram.js -n Alice hello, it will print out Hello, Alice!.
