### Before Write option
This option allows you to preprocess a file before it is being written, such as running a formatter,
linter or other commands.
To use this option, pass it the command you would like to run. The following tokens will be replaced
in your string:
- `{{path}}` - the temporary file path for you to read from
- `{{rawpath}}` - a different file path containing the raw file contents **before** they were
handled by Handlebars.js.
If none of these tokens are found, the regular (non-raw) path will be appended to the end of the
command.
```shell
simple-scaffold -c . --before-write prettier
# command: prettier /tmp/somefile
simple-scaffold -c . --before-write 'cat {{path}} | my-linter'
# command: cat /tmp/somefile | my-linter
```
The command should return the string to write to the file through standard output (stdout), and not
re-write the tmp file as it is not used for writing. Returning an empty string (after trimming) will
discard the result and write the original file contents.
See
[beforeWrite](https://chenasraf.github.io/simple-scaffold/docs/api/interfaces/ScaffoldConfig#beforewrite)
Node.js API for more details. Instead of returning `undefined` to keep the default behavior, you can
output `''` for the same effect.

You can build the scaffold yourself, if you want to create more complex arguments, scaffold groups,
etc - simply pass a config object to the Scaffold function when you are ready to start.

### Before Write option
This option allows you to preprocess a file before it is being written, such as running a formatter,
linter or other commands.
To use this option, you can run any async/blocking command, and return a string as the final output
to be used as the file contents.
Returning `undefined` will keep the file contents as-is, after normal Handlebars.js procesing by
Simple Scaffold.
