cli-prompt
==========
A tiny CLI prompter
[](http://travis-ci.org/carlos8f/node-cli-prompt)
Install
-------
```javascript
$ npm install --save cli-prompt
```
Usage
-----
### `prompt(message, onValue, [onError])`
- `message`: text prompt for the user
- `onValue`: function to be called (after user hits enter/return) with the entered text
- `onError`: optional function to receive an error, if STDIN has already ended, for example.
Note: cli-prompt will not work if STDIN has ended. If provided, onError will be called in this case.
Example
-------
```js
var prompt = require('cli-prompt');
prompt('enter your first name: ', function (val) {
var first = val;
prompt('and your last name: ', function (val) {
console.log('hi, ' + first + ' ' + val + '!');
}, function (err) {
console.error('unable to read last name: ' + err);
});
}, function (err) {
console.error('unable to read first name: ' + err);
});
```
### Password/hidden input
```js
var prompt = require('cli-prompt');
prompt.password('tell me a secret: ', console.log, console.error);
```
### Multiple questions
```js
var prompt = require('cli-prompt');
prompt.multi([
{
key: 'username',
default: 'john_doe'
},
{
label: 'password (must be at least 5 characters)',
key: 'password',
type: 'password',
validate: function (val) {
if (val.length < 5) throw new Error('password must be at least 5 characters long');
}
},
{
label: 'number of pets',
key: 'pets',
type: 'number',
default: function () {
return this.password.length;
}
},
{
label: 'is this ok?',
type: 'boolean'
}
], console.log, console.error);
```
