`on-stock` is a small but useful inventory tool. As most of my small programs it
|
|
came to life from a real need of mine. There are many programs out there, big
|
|
programs, to keep track of your inventory. But all of these were to big and
|
|
complex for my own need. What I wanted was a small, preferably CLI-based,
|
|
inventory tool. So this program is the result of that. It may not meet the need
|
|
of other businesses, but for me it's more than enough.
|
|
|
|
# Usage
|
|
|
|
Usage: ./on-stock [-l] [-s name][-m name
|
|
[-d name] [-n] [-h]
|
|
|
|
-l = list the articles in the database
|
|
-s name = search for an 'name' in the database
|
|
-m name = modify the article named 'name' in the database
|
|
You'll then have the choice to change name, quantity and price.
|
|
-d name = delete the article named 'name'
|
|
-n = create new articles (interactive mode only)
|
|
-h = display this help message
|
|
|
|
