var Commandment = require('commandment')
  , commands = new Commandment({name: 'my-app', command_dir: __dirname + '/commands'});

commands.before_execute(function(context, next) {
  context.hello_helper = function() {
    // You can call me from commands now
    return 'hello world';
  };
});

commands.after_execute(function(context, err, next) {
  if (err) return console.error(err.stack);

exports.hello_person = function(name, callback) {
  this.log('Hello ' + name);
  callback();
};
