Summary

Added support for reading AsyncAPI documents from stdin by passing - as the file argument.

This follows the widely-used Unix convention where - represents stdin/stdout.

Changes

  1. Added Specification.fromStdin() method that reads from process.stdin
  2. Modified load() function to detect - as the special stdin indicator

Usage Examples

# Read from stdin
cat asyncapi.yaml | asyncapi validate -

# Generate fromTemplate with stdin input
asyncapi generate fromTemplate - @asyncapi/html-template -o out < input.yaml

# Validate with stdin
asyncapi validate - < spec.json

Error Handling

If stdin is empty, a clear error message is shown: "Not enough non-option arguments: expected at least one"
