Project manager CLI written in NodeJS

Package Manager CLI
==

Inspired by [eivind88/prm](https://github.com/eivind88/prm), I decided to build it using NodeJS.
Though it doesn't really do anything better, I just wanted something to play with ES2015.

However, the project does benefit from being a NodeJS module, ***multiplatform support***.

Note: Node 4.0.0 or higher needed, as the code is written in ES2015

Installation
==
Make sure you have Node 4.0.0 (at least) installed and npm installed.
```bash
npm i node-pmc -g
```

Setup
==
Since a node process can only change working directory of its child process, 
in order to cd into your project, you will need to add an alias to your bash_rc, bash_profile like the following:
```bash
#pmc
pmcd () { cd `pmc $1`; }
pmcs () { cd `pmc $1`; `pmc start $1`; }
```

Usage
==
List all projects

```bash
pmc ls|list
```

Add new project

```bash
pmc add <project-name> <location> 
```
Remove existing project

```bash
pmc rm|remove <project-name>
```

Open existing project
If you have added an [alias](#setup)
```bash
pmc-cd <project-name>
```
Else
```bash
cd `pmc <project-name>`
```
or

```bash
cd $(pmc <project-name>)
```

Add start script for a project (_NOTE: It overwrites, so you can use it to change or even remove script_)
```bash
pmc add-start <project-name> 
```

To see start script of a project
```bash
pmc start <project-name>
```

Start a project (_NOTE: It will first cd into its directory and then run the scripts_)
```bash
$(pmc start <project-name>)
```
