export commands to allow use of stripes-cli in other node apps

, I defer to you. So I will close.

See https://github.com/folio-org/folio-tools/tree/master/okapi-request

Maybe this should be closed as "Won't Do" and we can aggregate the various okapi-helper scripts/tools folks have written in folio-tools?

It's a new area for Firebird, so might be less effort-consuming for someone working with stripes-sli.
Adding to Firebird backlog for now and we''ll look into it if/when capacity allows.
Feel free to take it back to Stripes Force if they want to work on it earlier than its started by Firebird.

There are examples in other repos that show the same problem, i.e. the script is not portable across platforms (a #!/bin/sh script is unix-specific) and, like pdiff, is a mix of shell, curl, and jq. That's not necessarily a bad thing – it's a nicely written script that does a good job parameterizing stuff like the token and tenant – but all that work piping stuff in and out of jq would be wicked simple if you could just write the whole thing in JS.

But, "everything in Node FTW" is a dev talking. Could we get a sysadm/FSE/devops representative to help us realistically asses the value/priority of this?

, e.g. I'd love to write scripts like https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zburke/folio-tools/master/pdiff/pdiff.sh as straight node scripts instead of that rather ugly mash of sh / stripes-cli / jq.
