A template generator for Mongoose Live REPL
npx create-mongoose-liveFollow the prompts and edit repl.js as needed. After installation, run npm run repl to enter the Mongoose Live REPL.
The script will install the mongoose-live Node module, create a repl.js file configured to operate in your Mongoose environment, and add the repl script to package.json.
If your project includes a file that exports a Mongoose.connection object, you can provide a path to that file here.
Alternately, you may add this path in
repl.jsafter the installer is complete, or editrepl.jsto build aMongoose.connectionobject directly in that file.
If your project includes a models directory that contains a file for each Mongoose model, you may provide a path to that directory here.
This will open a checkbox menu that includes all files in that directory. Please select the models you wish to include.
Each file will be included in the REPL context under a key matching the title case version of the file name. (Example: The model exported by userProfile.js will be available as UserProfile in the REPL context.)
Alternately, you may configure models in
repl.jsafter the installer is complete.
The new repl.js file can be configured to include other variables in the REPL context. Please consult the documentation for Mongoose Live to make configuration adjustments or to add additional variables to the REPL context.
Invalid file paths can cause errors. If you are unsure of the path to your mongoose.connection object or to your models directory, simply press Enter, then adjust configuration in repl.js.
