The Readline module does what it says on the box: it reads a line of input from the terminal. This can be used to ask the user a question or two, or to create a prompt at the bottom of the screen. In this tutorial, I intend to show off the capability of Readline and make a real-time CLI chatroom backed by Socket.io. The client will not only send simple messages, but have commands for emotes with /me, private messages with /msg, and allow for nicknames to be changed with /nick.<br/> <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #imported:pinboard #node #nodejs #sockets</p> Fri, 13 Jun 2014 19:02:48 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:24958 imported:pinboard node nodejs sockets
