Replace deprecated library optimist #99

Closed liamsmithuk closed 3 years ago

liamsmithuk commented 4 years ago

The optimist library is no longer maintained and depends on a vulnerable version of minimist. The author of optimist has no intention of updating their library, see open issue https://github.com/substack/node-optimist/issues/152 and deprecation notice in their README

Could we please swap out this library with something actually maintained?

This package is no longer using optimist.
