Separator
objects can be used in the choices
array to render non-selectable lines in the choice list. By default it'll render a line, but you can provide the text as argument (new Separator('-- Dependencies --')
). This option is often used to add labels to groups within long list of options.
Choice
object
The Choice
object is typed as
type Choice<Value> = {
value: Value;
name?: string;
short?: string;
key?: string;
};
Here's each property:
value
: The value is what will be returned byawait rawlist()
.name
: This is the string displayed in the choice list.short
: Once the prompt is done (press enter), we'll useshort
if defined to render next to the question. By default we'll usename
.key
: The key of the choice. Displayed askey) name
.
choices
can also be an array of string, in which case the string will be used both as the value
and the name
.
Theming
You can theme a prompt by passing a theme
object option. The theme object only need to includes the keys you wish to modify, we'll fallback on the defaults for the rest.
type Theme = {
prefix: string;
spinner: {
interval: number;
frames: string[];
};
style: {
answer: (text: string) => string;
message: (text: string) => string;
error: (text: string) => string;
highlight: (text: string) => string;
};
};
