Farseek is a command-line tool that aims to subdue the pain of external file including with web development. Farseek uses JsDelivr to generate CDN paths.

To refrence a path to an npm package, use farseek npmjs <package> <path> As an example, to refrence the bulma css framework, simply use farseek npmjs bulma css/bulma.css This will copy the HTML link tag to the clipboard.

To refrence a file hosted on a github repo, use farseek github <user> <repo> <path> As an example, to refrence farseek.js hosted on github, simply use farseek github erwijet farseek src/farseek.js This will also copy the HTML link tag to the clipboard.

If you desire to not use HTML, you can use the -f or --format flag to specify the format you prefer your link to be coped in.

As of right now, only HTML and pug/jade formats are supported. Feel free to for and add support, or submit an issue on Github

To refrence a file for Pug, use farseek npmjs -f pug bulma css/bulma.css which would copy link(rel="stylesheet", href="http://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bulma@latest/css/bulma.css") to the clipboard

If you would prefer to log the generated link to the console, insted of to the clipboard, use the -l or --log flag.

The Known database is a collection of commonly used resources that exist to make refrencing them much easier with farseek.

Fetching from Known To use a path stored in the Known database, use the -g or --get option, followed by the path name. To use the bulma example again, farseek known -g bulmawould fetch the path for the bulma css framework.

Adding to Known In the event that you come across a resource that you would desire to use, and it is not already in the Known database, you can use farseek to add the resource using the -a or -add flag followed by the name you wish to use to represent the resources, an '@', then the path for the package.

To use the p5.js library as an example, farseek known -a p5js@https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/p5.js/0.9.0/p5.js

Removing from Known Really guys, please be mature. Currently, access for path removal is public in the event you add a path name that you meant to be named something different. In the event this tool is abused, removal will be changed to either a modification feature, or a permission-based removal system. If you have an idea for clever implemention, feel free to pull and add it. I'll add the user to a contributions section of this readme. Anyway, enough about that. To use the removal feature, use either the -r or --remove flag followed by the path name.

To remove the p5.js instance in the Known database, use farseek known -r p5.js
