| ## Description :
 | |
| Yargs helps you build interactive command line tools, by parsing arguments and generating an elegant user interface.
 | |
| 
 | |
| It gives you:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * commands and (grouped) options (`my-program.js serve --port=5000`).
 | |
| * a dynamically generated help menu based on your arguments.
 | |
| 
 | |
| > <img width="400" src="/screen.png">
 | |
| 
 | |
| * bash-completion shortcuts for commands and options.
 | |
| * and [tons more](/docs/api.md).
 | |
| 
 | |

 | |
|   console.log('Plunder more riffiwobbles!')
 | |
| } else {
 | |
|   console.log('Retreat from the xupptumblers!')
 | |
| }

 | |
|     yargs
 | |
|       .positional('port', {
 | |
|         describe: 'port to bind on',
 | |
|         default: 5000
 | |
|       })
 | |
|   }, (argv) => {
 | |
|     if (argv.verbose) console.info(`start server on :${argv.port}`)
 | |
|     serve(argv.port)
 | |
|   })
 | |
|   .option('verbose', {
 | |
|     alias: 'v',
 | |
