NPM Java Runner


- Include configured jar inside the NPM-package.
- Provide a layer, delegating all arguments, so that the jar is runnable with npx.

So that you can create a command line tool with Java and distribute it as an NPM package.

Usage

Create an index.js with:

``js
#!/usr/bin/env node
require('npm-java-runner/lib/index').run(__dirname);
`

Create package.json with:

`json
{
"name": "NAME",
"runnable-jar-regexp": ".build/libs/.\\d+\\.\\d+\\.\\d+\\.jar",
"files": ["build/libs"],
"bin": "./index.js",
"dependencies": {
"npm-java-runner": "a.b.c"
}
}
`

If you release this (npm publish), you will be able to run your jar with:

`sh
npx NAME --whatever arguments
``
