repl.REPLServer.setupHistory

path: string,

callback: (err: null | Error, repl: this) => void

): void;

Initializes a history log file for the REPL instance. When executing the Node.js binary and using the command-line REPL, a history file is initialized by default. However, this is not the case when creating a REPL programmatically. Use this method to initialize a history log file when working with REPL instances programmatically.

@param callback

called when history writes are ready or upon error
