need a way to specify output file

[clarkevans]

Currently, the inliner script writes to stdout. I'm not sure what the exact issue is, but it wouldn't work on GitLab's CI service, the file would be created but would be zero length when using > redirection. Anyway, it was easy enough to write a simple script that works, hard coding paths. It'd also be helpful to have default size that is a bit bigger, large SVG files don't get inlined by default. Thank you so much.

#!/usr/bin/env node                                                     
var inliner = require("inliner");
var fs = require("fs");

new inliner("build/index.html", {size : 1024* 1024 }, 
  function(err, text) {
    if(err) {
       console.log(err);
       process.exit(1);
    }
    fs.writeFile("demo.html", text, 
      function(err) {
        if(err) {
           console.log(err);
           process.exit(1);
        }
    });
  });

Hmm. This may not be the core issue. Perhaps it's that inliner.js expects that it is outputting to a terminal? see inliner/cli/progress.js
