With the availability of JS engines and the success of server-side runtimes, it
is natural to want command-line tools for various workflows.
This demo covers a number of strategies for building standalone processors. The
goal is to generate CSV output from an arbitrary spreadsheet file.
## Deno
`deno compile` generates a standalone executable that includes the entire JS
runtime as well as user JS code.
When compiling, the `--allow-read` option must be specified to allow the script
to read files from the filesystem with `Deno.readFileSync`.

1) Save the following script to `sheet2csv.ts`:
```ts title="sheet2csv.ts"
/*! sheetjs (C) 2013-present SheetJS -- http://sheetjs.com */
// @deno-types="https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-latest/package/types/index.d.ts"
import * as XLSX from 'https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-latest/package/xlsx.mjs';
import * as cptable from 'https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-latest/package/dist/cpexcel.full.mjs';
XLSX.set_cptable(cptable);
/* Read and parse workbook */
const filename = Deno.args[0];
if(!filename) {
console.error("usage: sheet2csv <filename> [sheetname]");
Deno.exit(1);
}
const workbook = XLSX.readFile(filename);
/* Find worksheet */
const sheetname = Deno.args[1] || workbook.SheetNames[0];
if(!workbook.Sheets[sheetname]) {
console.error(`error: workbook missing sheet ${sheetname}`);
Deno.exit(1);
}
/* Generate CSV and print to stdout */
console.log(XLSX.utils.sheet_to_csv(workbook.Sheets[sheetname]));
```
2) Build `sheet2csv` with `deno compile`:
```bash
deno compile -r --allow-read sheet2csv.ts
```
`sheet2csv` is a generated executable that you can run.
