@inquirer-cli/editor

CLI tool for multi-line input using the default editor via Inquirer.js.

Status

🚧 NOT SUPPORTED YET: This package is currently not functional due to technical difficulties.

Installation

No installation required. Use npx to run the tool directly:

npx -y @inquirer-cli/editor [...options]

Note: The -y flag is used with npx to skip the installation prompt. This is necessary because the CLI's output is consumed by $() in bash, which would otherwise cause the script to freeze.

Usage

Attempt to prompt the user for multi-line input:

notes=$(npx -y @inquirer-cli/editor "Write your notes")
echo "Your notes: $notes"

Options

• <message> (required): The message to display to the user.
• -h, --help: Show the help message and exit.

Example

#!/bin/sh
notes=$(npx -y @inquirer-cli/editor "Write your notes")
echo "Your notes: $notes"
