Runner-generator-repl NPM

Tasks generator for REPL

npm install runner-generator-repl

Add to the scope:

const generator = require('runner-generator-repl');

Generate tasks according to the given config:

const tasks = generator({
    runner: runnerInstance,
    readline: {
        historySize: 200
    }
});

Add generated tasks to the runner instance:

const runner = require('runner');

Object.assign(runner.tasks, tasks);

The following tasks will become available:

Task name	Description
`repl:config`	prints the current configuration used for generated tasks
`repl:start`	starts repl server
`repl:stop`	stops repl server

Generator accepts two arguments: base configuration and additional options.

It's an object with the following properties:

Name	Description
runner	existing runner instance
readline	options passed to the `readline.createInterface` method

It's an object with the following properties:

Name	Description
prefix	an affix placed before a task name (default is `repl:`)
suffix	a string added at the end of a task name (empty by default)

So it's possible to change generated tasks names:

Object.assign(runner.tasks,
    generator(config, {
        prefix: 'readline:',
        suffix: ':develop'
    })
);

It will add the following tasks:
