node-repl-plus

Enhanced CLI configurable for a specific project. Install and place .nodeplus file in project root directory to configure.
Setup

npm install node-repl-plus --save-dev
Create a .nodeplus file in the project root. See below for basic example.
Run in project with npx nodeplus
Example nodeplus config file

/*------------------------------- ALLOW IMPORT OF TYPESCRIPT FILES -------------------------------*/
// Install with npm install --save-dev module-alias to make this work.
require('module-alias/register');

/*=========================== ADD ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES TO process.env ===========================*/
const path = require('path');

// Reference to root path of project.
// Install with npm install --save-dev app-root-path
const {path: rootPath} = require('app-root-path');

// Grab project config.
// Install with npm install --save dotenv
const {config: envConfig} = require('dotenv');

// Activate environment variables in a .env file.
// Assumes env file is at ./config/env/.env relative to project root.
envConfig({path: path.join(rootPath, `./config/env/.env`)});

/*================================== REPLACE EXISTING FUNCTIONS ==================================*/
// Override fetch to use the same fetching mechanism as the frontend. Must ts-ignore for this to work.
const fetchNew = require('isomorphic-fetch');
// @ts-ignore
fetch = fetchNew;

/*=================================== ADD TOP-LEVEL VARIABLES ====================================*/
/**
 * Add global temp for convenience (automatically referenceable).
 * Call "temp" in the CLI to access its value, including assigning a new value
 */
global.temp = null;

//================================ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS CAN BE ADDED =================================//
/*----------------------------------- Fetch from API function ------------------------------------*/

 *
 * @param {string} route Route to make request to
 * @param {string} [method] Optional GET, PUT, or POST

 * @param {boolean} [verbose] If true, log more.
