Would it not be very convenient if you could browse all of Node's DOCs right from the command line?

x-doc lets you do just that.

x-doc is a tiny CLI app that aims to reduce the need to open a browser window to search for NodeJS / IOjs Documentation, the only catch is that it doesn't look as pretty but this is the compromise we make for saving a few minutes daily.

Right now documentation for all modules and their methods are available but more will be available soon.

Somethings are still a little quirky as this is very early stages of development.

Install

npm install x-doc

This should install the CLI app.

Usage

Using it is as simple as typing

x-doc fs.readFileSync

x-doc http

x-doc http -m

x-doc path --m-only

Options

-m : Displays a list of all the methods of a Module at the end the Module description

: Displays a list of all the methods of a Module at the end the Module description --m-only : Displays only the methods of a Specified Module

And all Contribution are greatly appreciated.
