## Usage

this plugin tries to establish some logic in which CLI tools work.

take the following commandline input:

```
mytool command argument1 argument2 --option1 -o2 option2Value
```

- `mytool` obviously is the tool (like git)
- `command` is the main thing the tool shall do (like commit)
- `argument1` and `argument2` are arguments
- `option1` is a longform option you can add (like --message for message)
- `optionValue` is the referenced option value (like a commit message)

When there is no command and no option specified the standardTask applied.
When there is a option specified but no command, standardTask applies,
except when of the options is -v, --version or --help.

```javascript
import { Smartcli } from 'smartcli';
mySmartcli = new Smartcli();
mySmartcli.standardTask().then((argvArg) => {
  // do something if program is called without an command
});

mySmartcli.addCommand({ commandname: 'install' }).then((argvArg) => {
  // do something if program is called with command "install"
});

mySmartcli.addVersion('1.0.0'); // -v and --version options will display the specified version in the terminal

mySmartCli.addHelp({
  // is triggered by help command and --help option
  helpText: 'some help text to print', // the helpText to display
});

mySmartcli.startParse(); // starts the evaluation and fullfills or rejects promises.
```
