Temperature Monitor CLI

A command-line tool for recording and analyzing temperature readings from multiple sensors.

Capabilities

Parse temperature values

• Accepts temperature values including negative numbers in both --temp=-5 and --temp -5 formats @test
• Correctly distinguishes negative temperature values from CLI flags @test
• Collects multiple temperature readings into an array @test

Parse sensor configuration

• Accepts a sensor ID as a string value @test
• Accepts boolean flags for enabling/disabling features @test

Requirements

The CLI should accept the following arguments:

• --temp or -t: A temperature value (number). Can be specified multiple times to record multiple readings. Supports negative numbers (e.g., -10, -5.5).
• --sensor: A sensor identifier (string).
• --fahrenheit or -f: A boolean flag to indicate temperatures are in Fahrenheit (no value needed).
• --verbose or -v: A boolean flag to enable verbose output (no value needed).

The tool should properly handle negative temperature values such as:

• --temp=-10
• --temp -10
• -t -5.5

The parser should distinguish between negative numbers as values (like -10 for temperature) and actual CLI flags (like -f or -v).
