nodejs-repl.el

Run Node.js REPL in Emacs

Description

This program is derived from comint-mode and provides the following features.

• token completion, same as Node.js REPL
• file name completion in string
• incremental history search
• sending JavaScript codes to REPL

Usage

Put this file in your Emacs lisp path (e.g. ~/.emacs.d/site-lisp) and add the following line to your .emacs:

(require 'nodejs-repl)

Type M-x nodejs-repl to run Node.js REPL. See also comint-mode to check key bindings.

You can define key bindings to send JavaScript codes to REPL like below:

(add-hook 'js-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (define-key js-mode-map (kbd "C-x C-e") 'nodejs-repl-send-last-expression)
            (define-key js-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-j") 'nodejs-repl-send-line)
            (define-key js-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-r") 'nodejs-repl-send-region)
            (define-key js-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-l") 'nodejs-repl-load-file)
            (define-key js-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-z") 'nodejs-repl-switch-to-repl)))
