README

trymodule Circle CI

A simple cli tool for trying out different nodejs modules.

[trymodule demo](preview.gif)

Installation

npm install -g trymodule

Usage

trymodule colors

Downloads the module colors if needed, and starts a nodejs REPL with colors loaded in the current scope, ready for you to use.

trymodule colors lodash

Same as above but with many packages in one go!

trymodule colors=c lodash=l

Assign packages to custom variable names.

trymodule --clear

Removes the directory where trymodules stores the node modules. Removes TRYMODULE_PATH + '/node_modules'

Configuration

There are a couple of environment variables you can use to customize trymodule.

TRYMODULE_PATH for setting the path of where modules are stored. By default this is $HOME/.trymodule or $USERPROFILE/.trymodule

TRYMODULE_NONINTERACTIVE for making trymodule not fire up the repl in the end. This is useful if you want to just install some packages for future use. By default this is undefined. Setting it to any value would make trymodule non-interactive.

TRYMODULE_HISTORY_PATH for changing where to save the repl history. Should be pointing to a user write-able file. Defaults to $TRYMODULE_PATH/repl_history

You can set the environment variables for one session with export TRYMODULE_PATH=/usr/bin/trymodule or for just one time by doing TRYMOUDLE_PATH=/usr/bin/trymodule trymodule colors.

Inspiration

Inspiration comes from a leiningen plugin called lein-try that allows you to try out clojure libraries without having to declare them in an existing project. Thanks to @rkneufeld for the inspiration!
