#!/usr/bin/env node

import { createWatcher } from '../src/index.js';
import path from 'path';

let configPath = './nodemon-alternative.json';

// Handle basic CLI arguments
if (args.includes('--help') || args.includes('-h')) {
  console.log(`
nodemon-alternative

`);
  process.exit(0);
}

if (args.includes('--version') || args.includes('-v')) {
  const packageJson = JSON.parse(await import('../package.json', { assert: { type: 'json' }}));
  console.log(`nodemon-alternative v${packageJson.version}`);
  process.exit(0);
}

// Handle config file path
const configIndex = args.findIndex(arg => arg === '--config' || arg === '-c');
if (configIndex !== -1 && args[configIndex + 1]) {
  configPath = path.resolve(args[configIndex + 1]);
}

// Start the watcher
const watcher = createWatcher(configPath);
watcher.start();
