It leverages TypeScript for enhanced development experience, offering strong types and IntelliSense in supported editors. -```javascript -import { SmartInteract } from 'smartinteract' +### Getting Started -let myInteract = new SmartInteract([{ // note: its an array. You can specify multiple questions - name: 'question1', - type: 'input', - message: 'Who are you?', - default: 'Somebody', - validate: (inputString) => { return true } // implement your own validation -}]) -myInteract.addQuestions([ ... ]) // add more questions -myInteract.runQueue() - .then(answerBucket => { // the bucket has all the answers of the completed queue - let answerQuestion1 = answerBucket.getAnswerFor('question1') - // do something with the answers - }) +To begin, import `SmartInteract` from the module: -// alternatively use .askQuestion() for more direct control -myInteract.askQuestion{ // note: its an array. You can specify multiple questions - name: 'question2', - type: 'confirm', - message: 'Do you speak English?', - default: true, - validate: (inputString) => { return true } // implement your own validation -}().then(answerObject => { - // answerObject looks like { name: 'question2', value: true } -}) +```typescript +import { SmartInteract } from '@push.rocks/smartinteract'; ``` -## Contribution +### Creating and Running Interactions -We are always happy for code contributions. If you are not the code contributing type that is ok. Still, maintaining Open Source repositories takes considerable time and thought. If you like the quality of what we do and our modules are useful to you we would appreciate a little monthly contribution: You can [contribute one time](https://lossless.link/contribute-onetime) or [contribute monthly](https://lossless.link/contribute). :) +You can specify questions for user interaction as shown below: -For further information read the linked docs at the top of this readme. +```typescript +const smartInteract = new SmartInteract([ + { + name: 'userName', + type: 'input', + message: 'What is your name?', + default: 'John Doe', + }, + { + name: 'userConfirmation', + type: 'confirm', + message: 'Do you agree with the terms?', + default: false, + } +]); +``` -## Legal -> MIT licensed | **©** [Task Venture Capital GmbH](https://task.vc) -| By using this npm module you agree to our [privacy policy](https://lossless.gmbH/privacy) +`SmartInteract` supports various question types such as 'input', 'confirm', 'list', 'rawlist', 'checkbox', 'password', and 'editor'. This allows for a diverse range of user inputs from simple text inputs to selections from a list. + +### Adding Additional Questions Dynamically + +You can dynamically add more questions to the interaction: + +```typescript +smartInteract.addQuestions([ + { + name: 'userHobby', + type: 'input', + message: 'What is your favorite hobby?', + default: 'Programming', + } +]); +``` + +### Running the Interaction Queue + +Execute the queued interaction and process the responses: + +```typescript +smartInteract.runQueue() + .then(answerBucket => { + const userResponse = { + name: answerBucket.getAnswerFor('userName'), + agreed: answerBucket.getAnswerFor('userConfirmation'), + hobby: answerBucket.getAnswerFor('userHobby') + }; + + console.log(userResponse); + // Output: { name: 'John Doe', agreed: true/false, hobby: 'Programming'} + }); +``` + +### Direct Questioning + +For immediate prompting without queuing, you can utilize the `askQuestion` method: + +```typescript +smartInteract.askQuestion({ + name: 'urgentQuery', + type: 'confirm', + message: 'Do you need to save changes?', + default: true, +}) +.then(answerObject => { + console.log(answerObject); + // Output: { name: 'urgentQuery', value: true/false } +}); +``` + +### Advanced Usage + +You can customize validations, provide choice selections for 'list', 'rawlist', 'expand', and 'checkbox' types, and much more according to the [Inquirer.js](https://github.com/SBoudrias/Inquirer.js/) module which `@push.rocks/smartinteract` leverages internally. + +### Conclusion + +`@push.rocks/smartinteract` offers an elegant and robust solution for CLI interactions in Node.js projects. Its integration of TypeScript enhances code quality and developer workflow. Whether for simple prompts or complex inquisitive flows, it provides the tools necessary for obtaining and managing user inputs efficiently. + +## License and Legal Information + +This repository contains open-source code that is licensed under the MIT License.
