描述

What is the problem this feature will solve?

currently, node's cli interface is pretty simple and lean,
it mainly accepts flags that start with two dashes, or sometimes a single dash for some aliases.
additionally, many flags depend on each other or imply using another flag.

now that more and more flags are added to node, (and each new flag is heavily considered before adding to avoid options bloat), I propose we support a more complex cli interface with sub-commands.
this issue has come up before when adding node --run, and to avoid blocking that - the discussion was postponed, so I went ahead and opened this issue.

If I recall, the main concern was node run or node test is a breaking change since it today runs node run.js or node test.js accordingly - that can be addressed with releasing this gradually as semver-major with a deprecation warning for a few versions prior to the actual change

some groups/clusters of commands that might fit using sub commands:

  • node --run
  • node --watch, --watch-path
  • node --test
  • node --build-snapshot

调研方向

首先检查 Node 的 CLI 处理方式以及围绕 node --run 的先前讨论,然后比较提议的分组:--run--watch--test--build-snapshot。考虑对现有 node run.jsnode test.js 调用的兼容性影响;要视为完成,需要就子命令设计达成一致,并制定 semver-major 弃用计划。
