zero-config repl for your project
npm install nice-replExtension of https://github.com/sloria/local-repl, a very low-key script designed to make a nice repl for a nodejs project.
Add to project, optionally create a .replrc.js in the project, run yarn nice-repl
``shell`
yarn add -D nice-repl
yarn nice-repl
This is a zero-config repl for your project, and instead of writing a .replrc.js where you can configure your repl and export a "context" object, with nice-repl you don't have to think that hard. You just write a .replrc.js and it will simply run the script in a nodejs context. All of your local variables leftover from that script will be available in the nice-repl context.
local-repl did not have repl history. nice-repl is nicer than that. It will create a ~/.nice-repl directory and save a repl history in a directory it makes based on the full project directory name. You can set the environment variable NODE_REPL_HISTORY_SIZE to configure the amount of lines you want to save in the history, same as the node.js REPL.
- Declare locals with var` in your .replrc.js to expose to the context
