Disable .node_repl_history file


Is it possible to disable the node-history of read-eval-print-loop (REPL) stored in the .node_repl_history file in the home directory(~)?

Im using macOS High Sierra, and node is installed through home-brew.


Solution

  • You can disable it by setting the NODE_REPL_HISTORY environment variable to "".

    You can read more about the environment variables and REPL in the Node.js documentation.
