readline-history

/* Monkey-patching history support into readline.

• Usage: createInterface is like readline's createInterface, but also takes a path and
• a maximum (in-memory) history length. Also it's async, so use CPS.
• maxDiskSize is maximum bytes that can go in disk history
• before a rotation. Rotation is super simple, removes previous .old, renames to .old
• console.log(module.example) to see an example of how to use. */

var rl = require('readline-history'); rl.createInterface({ path: "/tmp/history", maxLength: 1234, input: process.input, output: process.output, next: function(rli) { rli.setPrompt("? "); rli.prompt(); rli.on('line',function(line) { console.log("Got line "+line); rli.prompt(); }); }; });
