Use babel npm package to transpile your ES6 to a commonjs target

export const validate = _options => {

SyntaxError: Unexpected token export

See #19 (comment)

[abhijithvijayan]

The error occurs on running
`node cli.js -u "abhijithvijayan"

The module.exports doesn't seem to cooporate with importing in tests/index.test.js

[abhijithvijayan]

Possible fix:

In index.js

// default import
module.exports = bar;
module.exports.foo = foo;

Then import in another file

import fooBar from './';

fooBar();
fooBar.foo();

You could probably just implement babel-node and use newer JavaScript features, though Node should be supporting these by now what version of Node is this running on?

Though it seems to be using babel-node a better idea, CLI works good for now, hence, unless required, we could stay using the Node.js features.

If you run into somekinda error writing tests or if yoi feel like using some advanced features, feel free to submit a PR with babel-node addition.

[JacobMGEvans]

Awesome! Will do, thanks. I'll focus on the unit tests first 😆
