base-task-prompts

Utils for using prompts to conditionally run tasks. Requires the base-task and base-questions plugins.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install base-task-prompts --save

Usage

Heads up! This is not a plugin, but the main export is a function that takes an instance of base as its only argument.

var prompts = require('base-task-prompts');
var questions = require('base-questions');
var task = require('base-task');
var Base = require('base');
var app = new Base();
 
var ask = prompts(app);
app.use(questions());
app.use(task());

Examples

Conditionally call a function

To run this example, you will also need to use the base-npm plugin.

var npm = require('base-npm');
app.use(npm());
 
// calls the function if the user's answer is truthy
app.task('foo', ask.confirm('Would you like to install deps?', function(cb) {
  app.npm.latest(cb);
}));

Conditionally run tasks

To run this example, you will also need to use the base-npm plugin.

// runs the specified task if the user's answer is truthy
app.task('foo', ask.confirm('Would you like to install deps?', ['npm']));
 
// if the user answers "yest"
app.task('npm', function(cb) {
  app.npm.latest(cb);
});
