yargs VS jellybean

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.

After writing a few unit and E2E Integration tests for my static site generator, Jellybean, last week, this week I added Continuous Integration to the repository. It was very easy to set up and is useful if you or other contributors forget to manually test while making changes. It ensures that changes or pull requests made to the main branch are automatically tested by running a workflow.

For Leyang's project, I found that getHtlmlTitleBody() was not tested yet so I decided to contribute some tests to it. This function accepts the content of the file as a string and a boolean indicating whether it's a text file or not, it then returns an object with 2 properties: title and body.

This week, I continued working on my static site generator Jellybean and focused on creating and running tests for the program. I decided to use Jest for testing, mostly because it was what was recommended and I have tried other tools such as Jasmine and Karma before, but not Jest, so I thought this would be a good opportunity to learn how it works.

For my own static site generator, Jellybean, one feature of Docusaurus that I wanted to implement was full markdown support. This is because my static site generator previously only had partial markdown support, which is not very user-friendly. Thankfully, there are a some great open-source libraries which can provide full markdown support and I decided to use markdown-it for my project.

It was my first time learning about interactive rebases and I found this process to be so useful as it gives you so much freedom in customizing your commits. I used the interactive rebase command (git rebase main -i) to squash all my commits into a single commit. In addition, I used the git commit --amend command to modify my commit message and add more details. After this exercise, I feel so much more confident in using rebases to modify my commits and project history.

This week, I worked on Leyang Yu Static Site Generator project called jellybean. I added a new issue on her repo to let her know that I wanted to add a new --config option to support a JSON config file. Luckily she agreed, so I got started right away.

I also received an issue and pull request to my repo. I had a lot of great discussion with Francesco and he mentioned that he was "really seeing the benefit of code review now" after I tested his changes and made several suggestions. I was able to test his code by adding his repo as a remote to my local repo and creating a tracking branch. After going back and forth a few times and fixing all issues, I was successfully able to merge Francesco's branch with my main branch.

I've been working on a static site generator called Jellybean over the past few weeks and this week, I wanted to add a few more features:

For this lab, I decided to contribute to Leyang Yu project, Jellybean SSG, . He is also using JavaScript so I decided that it would be a good idea to try adding to his project, so I filled and Issue Issue #6.

Similarly, Gustavo created an issue, added markdown support, and created a pull request for my repo. I provided some comments.
