Code example

What does process.argv have?

Well, try doing console.log(process.argv); dude.

Example code:

//var checkpackage = require('../../../checkpackage/index.js');

checkpackage = require('checkpackage');

var name = process.argv.slice(2)[0];

console.log('Searching ...')
if (name)
    checkpackage(name);
else
    console.log('Kindly enter an package name');

package.json

{
  "name": "example1",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "testing",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "amit",
  "license": "ISC"
}
