[QUESTION] List of numbers ?

[kapouer]

Is that possible ?

var opts = {
  "bloo" : [0, 1, 2]
};

It seems --bloo 1 isn't accepted when i do that.

nopt is configured to work with types, not values. So, try:

"bloo" : Number
// or
"bloo" : [Array, Number]

Then handle the value conditions manually:

if (options.bloo > 0 && options.bloo < 3) {
    console.log("success");
}
// or
for (var i=0; i<options.bloo.length; i++) {
    if (options.bloo[i] > 0 && options.bloo[i] < 3) {
        console.log("success");
        break;
    }
}

@stevenvachon: (As of at least v3.0.1) it does work with values, at least with strings (there's an example in the read-me).

Not supporting it with numbers smells like a bug - unless I'm missing something.

Thus, here's a simple workaround: define your numbers as strings and convert afterward:

var opts = {
  "bloo" : ['0', '1', '2']
};

parsed = nopt(opts);

// Convert to integer after parsing.
if (parsed.bloo) parsed.bloo = parseInt(parsed.bloo, 10);
