Hi, I'm new to adonis, I see the question here , but I still don't know how to do it , can some one help me out? An example is better.

@bstsnail. You can do it using a preload file.

• Create a new preload file using node ace make:prldfile <name>
• Make sure you select the web environment or all the environment. DO NOT LEAVE THE PROMPT SELECTION EMPTY.
• Next write console.log inside the newly created file to check it is getting loaded by AdonisJS automatically.
• If yes, then you can write any code inside it and it will be executed after the framework is ready

Great, it works.
But the step 2 is not showed as you mentioned, I select the 'During HTTP server' and it didn't work

I hade to add 'web' in .adonisrc.json manually

You need to select using the space key. People usually forget to click space to select an option. I believe, we should improve the UX of this prompt
