cross-env VS yargs

cross-env

or if we care about cross-platform compatibility (i.e. Windows support), we can use cross-env (which I also recommend to install as a dev dependency):

i like to use dotenv-flow and dynamically load it into node process. it's framework agnostic and can be combined with vaious other strategies, like explicitly set NODE_ENV with cross-env. all you need is the right command in your package.json, see a sample here.

Cross-env runs scripts that set and use environment variables across various platforms.

You will also need to disable the url-loader in your Docusaurus build which transforms images into base64 strings, as this will conflict with the plugin. There isn't a first class way to do this in Docusaurus at present. However by setting the environment variable WEBPACK_URL_LOADER_LIMIT to 0 you can disable it. You can see an implementation example in this pull request. It amounts to adding the cross-env package and then adding the following to your package.json:

Using the cross-env library, you'll tell the React Testing Library to skip auto cleanup after each test. More info and ways to configure here: Skipping Auto Cleanup. Now your configuration is enough to start writing tests, let's get started.

Now we need to load the files during the bootup. Windows environments sometimes face issues with loading the environments. To take care of that, let's install a package named cross-env

build; sets and enviroment valiable of NODE_ENV=production using cross-env lib and builds the production bundle, minified and without source-maps as set in the webpack.config.js file.

I'd suggest the cross-env NPM package which is used a lot (4M downlaods/week). Then you can just change it to the following:

Debugging Cypress tests using Visual Studio Code was possible earlier but with the latest version of Cypress, there is no direct way to do so. Even with the latest version of Cypress, a workaround was possible using Debugger for Chrome – a Visual Studio Code Extension and cross-env npm package. However, the Debugger for Chrome Extension for Visual Studio Code is deprecated and the cross-env npm package has gone into maintenance mode.

Your tool now automates project setup, but there's room for improvement. Consider adding more features or handling user input to customize the project structure. Explore packages like yargs for parsing command-line arguments. You can learn more about yargs through their official documentation here.

This code snippet uses yargs, a Node.js package, to parse command-line arguments in a POSIX-compliant way, including support for short and long-form options. You could also use the popular commander defined as a complete node.js command-line interface.

This feature was implemented by adding a new argument option -l or --lang in yargs as below.

Creating CLIs with yargs is a piece of cake. For LZ4 there is a streaming implementation on npm which is a single function and also happened to decompress my files without any errors. Everything else is out-of-box Node.js.

Backend is more tricky. - RESTful APIs I prefer Koajs - For a RPC/microsevice, I have only used gRPC - For a CLI, yargs and inquirer

To accomplish this task, I added a new option using the yargs module. This allows me to read whatever the user inputs after using -l/--l. Following this, I added a conditional statement that defaults to en-CA whenever a language code is not inputted.

You can build them from scratch, or use one of many specialized libraries on NPM, like commander, yargs, blessed, terminal kit, prompts, and many more.
