Extends repl.REPLServer to allow for a colorize function

Package Exports

  • pretty-repl
  • pretty-repl/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (pretty-repl) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Node.js CI

How to use it

Install the package:

$ npm install --save pretty-repl

Use the package:

const repl = require('pretty-repl');

const options = {
    prompt: '→ '
};

repl.start(options);

options is an an object with the same options as repl.REPLServer.

Additionally, it's possible to pass an additional colorize property to the options object:

{
    colorize: function (str) {
        // str is the the string in input.
        // the function should return the string that has been colorized to output in the REPL.
    }
}

In order to highlighting matching pairs of brackets, a colorizeMatchingBracket is also available.
