h

CLI tool that commonizes the commands which show documentation.

About

There are so many CLI tools in the world, and they have different methods for printing documentation.

For example:

• man <command>
• <command> help [...subcommand]
• <command> [...subcommand] --help
• <command> [...subcommand] help (It's rare case. I only know aws-cli.)

h does commonize them to h <command> [...subcommand] .

How does it work

Execute above help commands orderly until exits successfully.

Some commands that have defferent pattern like aws-cli are handled specially.

Install

npm install --global @aku11i/h

Usage

h <command> [...subcommand]

Examples:

# execute `man sed`
h sed
# execute `git help clone`
h git clone
# execute `docker images list --help`
h docker images list
# execute `aws s3 help`
h aws s3

I want to know which command is executed.
