repl-here

Build Status Dependency Status

Node REPL that autoloads all modules in ./node_modules/ at startup, just like core libs.

CLI

Usage: repl-here [OPTION]...

Options:

-v, --verbose
Print a name table describing how a particular module is named inside the REPL. Variable names are effectively camel-cased versions of module names.
-l, --load-main
Load main module at the current working directory.
-i MODULE, --ignore=MODULE
Ignore module by name.

API

ee = replHere(repl, basedir, [opts])

Require all modules from basedir/node_modules into the repl (first argument).

Returns EventEmitter.

opts.loadMain

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Whether main module should be required from basedir.

opts.ignore

Type: String or [String]
Default: []

Module name or list of module names to ignore.

Event: load

ee.on('fail', function(name, path))

Emitted if module name is loaded from path.

Event: fail

ee.on('fail', function(name, path))

Emitted whenever module name fails to load.

Event: end

ee.on('end', function())

Emitted if repl is done being populated with modules.

Event: error

ee.on('error', function(err))

Emitted if a fatal error occurred. At this point repl may be half-way populated or left intact.

  • repl-it works in the context of a project. It walks up the directory tree, parses package.json for dependencies and devDependencies, has options like loading main project files, etc.

  • scratchy is sort of a hybrid of repl-it and repl-here: it walks up the directory tree as repl-it does but requires everything inside node_modules just like repl-here. This means you can't simply npm install foo and load it into the repl immediately afterwards (which is the problem this module is trying to solve).

Install

npm install -g repl-here
