Issues with 2.7.1 when using sub commands

[AdamMagaluk]

Sub commands are not working on the lastest, was working in 2.6.0.

Running node cli works but node cli subcommand fails with the error below.

fs.js:691
  return binding.lstat(pathModule._makeLong(path));
                 ^
Error: ENOENT, no such file or directory '/commander-test/cli'

Could u provide more detail information? thx

[AdamMagaluk]

See files below, i have a base cli.js file and a subcommand cli-stacks.js breaks on the latest release when running node cli stacks.

node cli -h both 2.7.1 and 2.6.0 prints help message showing stacks command and top level options.

2.6.0

λ: node cli stacks -h

  Usage: cli-stacks [options] [command]


  Commands:

    create [name]   install one or more packages
    delete [query]  search with optional query
    help [cmd]      display help for [cmd]

  Options:

    -h, --help  output usage information

2.7.1

λ: node cli stacks -h

fs.js:691
  return binding.lstat(pathModule._makeLong(path));
                 ^

cli.js

var program = require('commander');

program
  .version('0.0.1')
  .option('-C, --chdir <path>', 'change the working directory')
  .command('stacks [cmd]', 'install one or more packages')
  .parse(process.argv);

cli-stacks.js

var program = require('commander');
program
  .command('create [name]', 'install one or more packages')
  .command('delete [query]', 'search with optional query')
  .parse(process.argv);

I'm experiencing the same issue on linux, on windows the sub command is found. I'm getting the following error:

clitest-install(1) does not exist, try --help

Another issue - list coercion function not working, under 2.6.0 working

Issue i'm seeing stems from 154fb8b appears your not calling node sub-command anymore but directly calling sub-command. For my code this means removing the .js extension and making them executable with the typical #!/usr/bin/env node, or pin the commander version to v2.6.0 the latter is probably what i'll stick with.

I'm having the same issue!

@AdamMagaluk yep, I will find a way to fix this. You can add #!/usr/bin/env node simply(command will handle the .js itself) OR pin to v2.6.0 before the bug get fixed. Sorry for that.

[zhiyelee]

@AdamMagaluk yep, u are right. I am working on this bug now. Hope to release a patch version later.

Just for leave a note about this.

I was using the git style and because I didn't use .js when I called the file with node it gave me this error

node bin/npm-packager <--- no extension, this fails
