Exit code 0, but arbitrary error messages with no matches

[konsalex]

Hey folks,

The DX is a bit confusing when there are no matches, as the exit code is indeed 0 which is great, but the output for an example command:
fastmod -- '--palette-(dark)-([\w-]+)' '--theme-${1}-palette-${2}' -g '!base.css' -g '*.{tsx,ts,js,jsx,css,pcss}' ./src

would be:

Warning: -g: No such file or directory (os error 2)
Warning: !base.css: No such file or directory (os error 2)
Warning: -g: No such file or directory (os error 2)
Warning: *.{tsx,ts,js,jsx,css,pcss}: No such file or directory (os error 2)

which took me quite some time to figure out that indeed it run smoothly, the selectors just did not match anything.

Am I doing something wrong myself maybe?

Edit:

I get this only on times that I need to prepend with -- to avoid throwing with --palette for example

It looks like you used `--`, so everything after that is taken literally, not as a flag, including your `-g`.

@swolchok without the double hyphen I get to an issue:

error: Found argument '--palette-(dark)-([\w-]+)' which wasn't expected, or isn't valid in this context

Then to solve this I try to escape the hyphens:

fastmod '\-\-palette-(dark)-([\w-]+)' '\-\-theme-${1}-palette-${2}' -g '!base.css' -g '*.{tsx,ts,js,jsx,css,pcss}' ./src

and this one leads to weird replacement

-                 color: "var(--palette-dark-neutral-bg)",
+                 color: "var(\-\-theme-dark-palette-neutral-bg)",

Do you have any clue how this one can be resolved?

[swolchok]

I think moving the flags before the double hyphen should do it:
fastmod -g '!base.css' -g '*.{tsx,ts,js,jsx,css,pcss}' -- '--palette-(dark)-([\w-]+)' '--theme-${1}-palette-${2}' ./src
