Usage

Heads up!

The colors used in the example were added just for that example. See how that works in examples/prompt.js.

var Prompt = require('prompt-sort');
var prompt = new Prompt({
  name: 'colors',
  message: 'Sort colors from most to least favorite',
  choices: [
    'green',
    'red',
    'yellow'
  ]
});
 
// promise
prompt.run()
  .then(function(answer) {
    console.log(answer);
  });
 
// or async
prompt.ask(function(answer) {
  console.log(answer);
});

Enquirer usage

Register as a plugin with enquirer:

var Enquirer = require('enquirer');
var enquirer = new Enquirer();
 
enquirer.register('readme', require('prompt-sort'));

Enquirer examples

Enquirer supports both the declarative inquirer-style question format and a functional format using the .question method:

Declarative format

Questions can be defined as an array of objects, or a single question object:

var questions = [
  {
    type: 'sort', // <= define the prompt "type"
    name: 'colors',
    message: 'Sort colors from most to least favorite',
    choices: [
      'green',
      'red',
      'yellow'
    ]
  }
];
 
enquirer.ask(questions)
  .then(function(answers) {
    console.log(answers)
  });

Expressive format

Functional style questions.

enquirer.question('colors', {
  type: 'sort',
  message: 'Sort colors from most to least favorite',
  choices: [
    'green',
    'red',
    'yellow'
  ]
});
 
enquirer.ask(['colors'])
  .then(function(answers) {
    console.log(answers)
  });
