I am trying to run yargs command, and it is not working

Question

I am running:

node app.js add

And my code is:

const yargs = require('yargs');
yargs.command({
    command:'add',
    describe:'Adding command',
    handler:function(){
        console.log('Adding notes');
    },
})

But nothing printed on the console.

As @jonrsharpe mentioned in the comment above.

You need to either call parse function or access argv property

Try:

const yargs = require('yargs');

yargs
    .command({
        command:'add',
        describe:'Adding command',
        handler: argv => {
            console.log('Adding notes');
        }
    })
    .parse();

Or

const yargs = require('yargs');

const argv = yargs
    .command({
        command: 'add',
        describe: 'Adding command',
        handler: argv => {
            console.log('Adding notes');
        }
    })
    .argv;

node index.js add
