Usage

Put a .feltrc.toml file in your home directory, which means ~/.feltrc.toml file.

```toml [felt] root = true node_modules = true

[command] hello = "echo Hello! I\'m Felt!" nid = "npm install --save-dev" ```

You have defined hello command above. Let's execute it

sh felt hello

You will get output Hello! I'm Felt!.

You can also execute them with args.

sh felt nid esbuild react react-dom

Execute node_modules

felt can execute command in ./node_modules/.bin/ directly. If you want this feature, set node_modules in .feltrc.toml to true.

```sh

You may have some Node.js binaries.

npm install esbuild

This execute ./node_modules/.bin/esbuild

felt esbuild index.js --minify --oufile build/index.js ```

Notice: Currently, felt searches node_modules in just current execution directory. Even if other related directory has node_modules, felt cannot find it.

.feltrc.toml

.feltrc.toml is config file for felt. It may be put in home directory.

```toml [felt]

If root is true, felt doesn't see parent directory's .fetlrc.toml

If this file is in home, you should set root to true.

You can omit this line when it is false.

root = true

If nodemodules is true, felt can run binaries in ./nodemodules/.bin/

If false, disable the feature.

If omit this line, its value is inherit from parent, or false when no parents set any value.

node_modules = true

[command]

You can define yor command aliases!

felt redis-up

redis-up = "docker run -it --rm -p 6379:6379 redis"

felt countfiles

countfiles = "ls -l | wc -l" ```

Local .feltrc.toml

felt uses .feltrc.toml in below order.

1. current directory
2. parent directory
3. parent of parent...(recursively)

If current directory is out of home(e.g. /tmp/), append ~/.feltrc.toml to last of above list.

If felt found root = true file. felt stops traverse there.

For example, home .feltrc.toml is:

```toml [felt] root = true node_modules = false

[command] hello = "echo Hello" hello2 = "echo Hi" ```

And ~/myproject/.feltrc.toml is:

```toml [felt] node_modules = true

[command] hello = "echo Helloooooooooooooooo" ```

You can:

sh cd ~/myproject felt hello felt hello2
