protobufjs-cli not available

[bluskript]

I can't find protobufjs-cli on npm even though the README says that it is available. Potentially related to https://github.com/protobufjs/protobuf.js/pull/1535.

npm i protobufjs-cli-dbx --save

Here the same problem. Why not protobufjs-cli-dbx? @nanpx @scottbessler?

@frederikhors it's not officially part of protobufjs. You can certainly use it in your project, but I don't view that as a long-term solution.

The ReadMe published to NPM says, "The command line utility lives in the protobufjs-cli package and must be installed separately." But that's not true yet, according to the API docs which say, "moving the CLI to its own package is a work in progress" and includes a link that 404s.

An official release for the CLI would be great

There is an automated pull request for the protobufjs-cli release that looks to be blocked on approval by a reviewer https://github.com/protobufjs/protobuf.js/pull/1618

Why not protobufjs-cli-dbx?

Because it's two years old??

This seems to have been fixed, https://www.npmjs.com/package/protobufjs-cli is now a real npm package
