Boris REPL for the Elefant CMS
==============================

[](#boris-repl-for-the-elefant-cms)

This is a simple app that adds the [Boris REPL](https://github.com/borisrepl/boris)(read-eval-print-loop) to the [Elefant CMS](https://www.elefantcms.com/) for experimenting with PHP code in the terminal in an interactive way.

> Note: Boris requires PHP's [pcntl](http://ca1.php.net/pcntl) extension.

1\. Install the Boris app via:

```
composer.phar require elefant/app-boris

```

2\. Call via:

```
    php index.php boris

```

The following Elefant objects are available to the REPL for inspection:

- `$cache`
- `$controller`
- `$i18n`
- `$page`
- `$tpl`
