repl

The REPL (called console) enables you to inspect the database through the lense of your application. The code used to bootstrap your repl can be found in conf/repl.ts

# start local repl
yarn console
> u = await User.all()

By default, all of your models are loaded into the global namespace. However, to avoid class naming conflicts, all models will actually be namespaced based on their folder path, starting from the models directory. This means that if you have a model located at Nutrition/LogEntry, and another located at Weight/LogEntry, the class names in the repl will be NutritionLogEntry and WeightLogEntry, regardless of what their actual class names are.

If you want to add additional globals to your repl, you can do so by modifying the conf/repl.ts file, adding any additional globals to the provided context, like so:

// conf/repl.ts
import './global.js'

import * as repl from 'node:repl'
import { loadRepl } from '@rvoh/dream'
import initializePsychicApp from './system/initializePsychicApp.js'
import MyClass from '../services/MyClass'

const replServer = repl.start('> ')
export default (async function () {
  await initializePsychicApp()
  await loadRepl(replServer.context)

  // add your additional globals here:
  replServer.context.MyClass = MyClass
})()
