commands

function (aliases: f, func, m, method)

displays documentation for a single function.

ex: $ nappy f fs.readFile

class (aliases: c)

displays documentation for a class.

ex: $ nappy c child_process.ChildProcess

ls (aliases: l, list)

lists the functions and classes exported by a module.

ex: $ nappy ls util

how to specify the 'thing to lookup'

for the ls command, simply specify the module name you'd like to see the contents of.

for function and class, you must specify <module>.<thing> (i.e. fs.readFile, etc.)

nappy caches the api docs for offline viewing

good for coding on airplanes if you don't have $5 to blow on airtran wi-fi. if you need to clear the cache, just pass the -w flag. but don't do it while you're offline or you'll bust the cache and refill it with a vast nothingness.

nappy -w util.inspect
