Lightweight, beautiful and user-friendly interactive prompts
>_ Easy to use CLI prompts to enquire users for information▌
async
/await
. No callback hell.$ npm install --save prompts
This package supports Node 6 and above
const prompts = require('prompts');
(async () => {
const response = await prompts({
type: 'number',
name: 'value',
message: 'How old are you?',
validate: value => value < 18 ? `Nightclub is 18+ only` : true
});
console.log(response); // => { value: 24 }
})();
See
example.js
for more options.
Prompt with a single prompt object. Returns an object with the response.
const prompts = require('prompts');
(async () => {
const response = await prompts({
type: 'text',
name: 'meaning',
message: 'What is the meaning of life?'
});
console.log(response.meaning);
})();
Prompt with a list of prompt objects. Returns an object with the responses.
Make sure to give each prompt a unique name
property to prevent overwriting values.
const prompts = require('prompts');
const questions = [
{
type: 'text',
name: 'username',
message: 'What is your GitHub username?'
},
{
type: 'number',
name: 'age',
message: 'How old are you?'
},
{
type: 'text',
name: 'about',
message: 'Tell something about yourself',
initial: 'Why should I?'
}
];
(async () => {
const response = await prompts(questions);
// => response => { username, age, about }
})();
Prompt properties can be functions too.
Prompt Objects with type
set to falsy
values are skipped.
const prompts = require('prompts');
const questions = [
{
type: 'text',
name: 'dish',
message: 'Do you like pizza?'
},
{
type: prev => prev == 'pizza' ? 'text' : null,
name: 'topping',
message: 'Name a topping'
}
];
(async () => {
const response = await prompts(questions);
})();
Type: Function
Returns: Object
Prompter function which takes your prompt objects and returns an object with responses.
Type: Array|Object
Array of prompt objects. These are the questions the user will be prompted. You can see the list of supported prompt types here.
Prompts can be submitted (return, enter) or canceled (esc, abort, ctrl+c, ctrl+d). No property is being defined on the returned response object when a prompt is canceled.
Type: Function
Default: () => {}
Callback that's invoked after each prompt submission.
Its signature is (prompt, answer, answers)
where prompt
is the current prompt object, answer
the user answer to the current question and answers
the user answers so far. Async functions are supported.
Return true
to quit the prompt chain and return all collected responses so far, otherwise continue to iterate prompt objects.
Example:
(async () => {
const questions = [{ ... }];
const onSubmit = (prompt, answer) => console.log(`Thanks I got ${answer} from ${prompt.name}`);
const response = await prompts(questions, { onSubmit });
})();
Type: Function
Default: () => {}
Callback that's invoked when the user cancels/exits the prompt.
Its signature is (prompt, answers)
where prompt
is the current prompt object and answers
the user answers so far. Async functions are supported.
Return true
to continue and prevent the prompt loop from aborting.
On cancel responses collected so far are returned.
Example:
(async () => {
const questions = [{ ... }];
const onCancel = prompt => {
console.log('Never stop prompting!');
return true;
}
const response = await prompts(questions, { onCancel });
})();
Type: Function
Preanswer questions by passing an object with answers to prompts.override
.
Powerful when combined with arguments of process.
Example
const prompts = require('prompts');
prompts.override(require('yargs').argv);
(async () => {
const response = await prompts([
{
type: 'text',
name: 'twitter',
message: `What's your twitter handle?`
},
{
type: 'multiselect',
name: 'color',
message: 'Pick colors',
choices: [
{ title: 'Red', value: '#ff0000' },
{ title: 'Green', value: '#00ff00' },
{ title: 'Blue', value: '#0000ff' }
],
}
]);
console.log(response);
})();
Type: Function
Programmatically inject responses. This enables you to prepare the responses ahead of time. If any injected value is found the prompt is immediately resolved with the injected value. This feature is intended for testing only.
Type: Array
Array with values to inject. Resolved values are removed from the internal inject array.
Each value can be an array of values in order to provide answers for a question asked multiple times.
If a value is an instance of Error
it will simulate the user cancelling/exiting the prompt.
Example:
const prompts = require('prompts');
prompts.inject([ '@terkelg', ['#ff0000', '#0000ff'] ]);
(async () => {
const response = await prompts([
{
type: 'text',
name: 'twitter',
message: `What's your twitter handle?`
},
{
type: 'multiselect',
name: 'color',
message: 'Pick colors',
choices: [
{ title: 'Red', value: '#ff0000' },
{ title: 'Green', value: '#00ff00' },
{ title: 'Blue', value: '#0000ff' }
],
}
]);
// => { twitter: 'terkelg', color: [ '#ff0000', '#0000ff' ] }
})();
Prompts Objects are JavaScript objects that define the "questions" and the type of prompt. Almost all prompt objects have the following properties:
{
type: String | Function,
name: String | Function,
message: String | Function,
initial: String | Function | Async Function
format: Function | Async Function,
onRender: Function
onState: Function
stdin: Readable
stdout: Writeable
}
Each property be of type function
and will be invoked right before prompting the user.
The function signature is (prev, values, prompt)
, where prev
is the value from the previous prompt,
values
is the response object with all values collected so far and prompt
is the previous prompt object.
Function example:
{
type: prev => prev > 3 ? 'confirm' : null,
name: 'confirm',
message: (prev, values) => `Please confirm that you eat ${values.dish} times ${prev} a day?`
}
The above prompt will be skipped if the value of the previous prompt is less than 3.
Type: String|Function
Defines the type of prompt to display. See the list of prompt types for valid values.
If type
is a falsy value the prompter will skip that question.
{
type: null,
name: 'forgetme',
message: `I'll never be shown anyway`,
}
Type: String|Function
The response will be saved under this key/property in the returned response object. In case you have multiple prompts with the same name only the latest response will be stored.
Make sure to give prompts unique names if you don't want to overwrite previous values.
Type: String|Function
The message to be displayed to the user.
Type: String|Function
Optional default prompt value. Async functions are supported too.
Type: Function
Receive the user input and return the formatted value to be used inside the program. The value returned will be added to the response object.
The function signature is (val, values)
, where val
is the value from the current prompt and
values
is the current response object in case you need to format based on previous responses.
Example:
{
type: 'number',
name: 'price',
message: 'Enter price',
format: val => Intl.NumberFormat(undefined, { style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' }).format(val);
}
Type: Function
Callback for when the prompt is rendered.
The function receives kleur as its first argument and this
refers to the current prompt.
Example:
{
type: 'number',
message: 'This message will be overridden',
onRender(kleur) {
this.msg = kleur.cyan('Enter a number');
}
}
Type: Function
Callback for when the state of the current prompt changes.
The function signature is (state)
where state
is an object with a snapshot of the current state.
The state object has two properties value
and aborted
. E.g { value: 'This is ', aborted: false }
Type: Stream
By default, prompts uses process.stdin
for receiving input and process.stdout
for writing output.
If you need to use different streams, for instance process.stderr
, you can set these with the stdin
and stdout
properties.
Text prompt for free text input.
Hit tab to autocomplete to initial
value when provided.
