REPL Trailpack. Adds an interactive shell to your Trails app to help with development and debugging. Saves command history between sessions.
Usage
The repl trailpack is loaded in your trailpack config per usual.
// config/main.js
module.exports = {
// ...
packs: [
// ...
require('trailpack-repl')
]
}
// config/repl.js
module.exports = {
/**
* REPL is disabled automatically if no text terminal is available. Set
* to "true" to override this behavior.
*/
allowNoTTY: false
}

By default headers are {'Accept': 'application/json'} but they can be modified by adding an extra param of each method like this :
get("/api/v1/default/info", {'Accept': 'text/xml'})
head("/api/v1/default/info", {'Accept': 'text/xml'})
options("/api/v1/default/info", 'some=data', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', {'Accept': 'text/xml'})
post("/api/v1/default/info", 'some=data', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', {'Accept': 'text/xml'})
put("/api/v1/default/info", 'some=data', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', {'Accept': 'text/xml'})
patch("/api/v1/default/info", 'some=data', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', {'Accept': 'text/xml'})
