# bin-wrapper [![CI](https://github.com/XhmikosR/bin-wrapper/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://github.com/XhmikosR/bin-wrapper/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

> Binary wrapper that makes your programs seamlessly available as local dependencies


## Install

```sh
npm install @xhmikosr/bin-wrapper
```


## Usage

```js
import path from 'node:path';
import BinWrapper from '@xhmikosr/bin-wrapper';

const base = 'https://github.com/imagemin/gifsicle-bin/raw/main/vendor';
const bin = new BinWrapper()
	.src(`${base}/macos/gifsicle`, 'darwin')
	.src(`${base}/linux/x64/gifsicle`, 'linux', 'x64')
	.src(`${base}/win/x64/gifsicle.exe`, 'win32', 'x64')
	.dest(path.join('vendor'))
	.use(process.platform === 'win32' ? 'gifsicle.exe' : 'gifsicle')
	.version('>=1.71');

(async () => {
	await bin.run(['--version']);
	console.log('gifsicle is working');
})();
```

Get the path to your binary with `bin.path()`:

```js
console.log(bin.path());
//=> 'path/to/vendor/gifsicle'
```


## API

### `new BinWrapper(options)`

### .version(range)

#### range

Type: `string`

Define a [semver range](https://github.com/npm/node-semver#ranges) to check
