Unable to add a global option about nestjs-console HOT 2 CLOSED

If the @Console is used without a name, that means you are registering a command on the root cli.

You can't define global options for the root cli using decorators. (the root cli is already defined)
You have to define options programmatically using the ConsoleService.

Inject the console service in your provider, then define an option on the rootCli.
You can find documentation about global options here :
https://github.com/Pop-Code/nestjs-console/wiki/Command-handler-signature#how-to-define-options-and-global-options

import { ConsoleService } from 'nestjs-console';

@Injectable()
class MyService {
    constructor(console: ConsoleService){
        const rootCli = console.getRootCli();
        rootCli.option('-v,--version', 'The description of the option');
    }
} 

However, a global option is not a good idea since you will have to handle this option in each command handler.

Commander (npm) already provides a way to print the version.
See https://www.npmjs.com/package/commander#version-option.

import { ConsoleService } from 'nestjs-console';

@Injectable()
class MyService {
    constructor(console: ConsoleService){
        const rootCli = console.getRootCli();
        rootCli.version('0.0.1', '-v, --version', 'output the current version');
    }
}

Thank you! That solved it neatly 😄
