CNV is an npm module to convert units in the command line. This module uses the convert-units module under the hood.

I built this for myself, because I usually google to convert units. This allows me to do any conversions quickly (and offline) right in my terminal.

I also wanted to build something using Typescript and test it using ava.

Installation

Install cnv globally

npm i -g cnv

To install it locally, use npm i cnv instead.

Usage

cnv 50km m

Some more examples:

cnv 1m cm
cnv 1lb kg
cnv 100oz ml

Test

cnv is tested using ava.

To run tests:

1. Setup the repository locally using:

git clone git@github.com:nkhil/cnv.git
cd cnv
npm install

2. Run tests:

npm t
