Ask a question for CLI using readline, supports muted input
npm i ask-readline
const ask = require('ask-readline')
main()
async function main () {
const username = await ask('Input username (clear): ', { clear: true })
const password = await ask('Input password (clear and muted): ', { clear: true, muted: true })
const twoFactorAuth = await ask('Input 2fa (keep but muted): ', { clear: false, muted: true })
const alias = await ask('Input alias (default): ')
console.log({ username, password, twoFactorAuth, alias })
}answer is a string or null.
If user does CTRL+C then answer is null.
Available options:
{
clear: false,
muted: false
}clear removes the line where the question was printed.
muted ensures that input is hidden, and not written to stdout.
