A repl tool over HTTP(s)

## Use as a middleware

> npm i repl-over-http

Click [here](./example/server.js) for a full example.

```

const express = require('express')

const replOverHttp = require('repl-over-http')

const app = express()

const middleware = replOverHttp() // create a `function (req, res)` middleware

app.put('/repl', middleware)

app.listen(8081)

```

## Use as a cli

> npm i -g repl-over-http

> repl-cli --uri http://your-repl-host

### note about curl

We can connect server with cmd `curl -sNT. http://localhost:8081/repl`.

But if reponse from server too large, curl will crash ~

## How it works

refer [Running a node.js REPL over `curl`](https://gist.github.com/TooTallNate/2053342)

## Security

For security reason, we only allow request from localhost by default. Custom with option `preflight`.
