option(flags, description, parseArg, defaultValue) { return this._optionEx({}, flags, description, parseArg, defaultValue); }
Define option with `flags`, `description`, and optional argument parsing function or `defaultValue` or both. The `flags` string contains the short and/or long flags, separated by comma, a pipe or space. A required option-argument is indicated by `<>` and an optional option-argument by `[]`. See the README for more details, and see also addOption() and requiredOption(). @example program .option('-p, --pepper', 'add pepper') .option('--pt, --pizza-type <TYPE>', 'type of pizza') // required option-argument .option('-c, --cheese [CHEESE]', 'add extra cheese', 'mozzarella') // optional option-argument with default .option('-t, --tip <VALUE>', 'add tip to purchase cost', parseFloat) // custom parse function @param {string} flags @param {string} [description] @param {(Function|*)} [parseArg] - custom option processing function or default value @param {*} [defaultValue] @return {Command} `this` command for chaining

Enable positional options.

Turning this on for a subcommand requires positional options to have been enabled on the program (parent commands).
