options parse,

[mromanuk]

Is there a way to tell if the parsed options, were default or set by the user?

const options = cli.parse({
	name:     [ 'n', 'instance name', 'string', 'Alice'],
}, [commands...]);

For example I need to know if --name Alice and my options object become:

{customer: 'Alice'}

I would like to know if it was set in the cli or it is a default option.

Something like this::

{{customer: 'Alice', setByDefault: true}, {otherOption: ..., setByDefault: false}}

@mromanuk Is it really meaningful to know whether the option's value is explicit set in CLI or by default? If it is really necessary for you, the following example based on commandos may be useful to you:

const commandos = require('commandos');
const cmd = commandos.parse({ options: [ '--name' ] });
// Only options which are multiple, or with default values, 
// or set in CLI will occur in the returned value.
if (!cmd.hasOwnProperty('name')) {
	cmd.name = 'Alice';
}
