Overview

Inquirer prompt for reactive choices on list

How to Use

import inquirer from 'inquirer';
import ReactiveListPrompt, { ChoiceItem, ReactiveListLoader } from 'inquirer-reactive-list-prompt';
import { BehaviorSubject } from 'rxjs';

const choices$: BehaviorSubject<ChoiceItem[]> = new BehaviorSubject<ChoiceItem[]>([]);
const loader$: BehaviorSubject<ReactiveListLoader> = new BehaviorSubject<ReactiveListLoader>({
    isLoading: false,
    message: 'Fetch some items',
    startOption: {
        color: 'red',
        spinner: 'triangle',
        text: 'Loading...',
    },
});

inquirer.registerPrompt('reactiveListPrompt', ReactiveListPrompt);
const reactiveList = inquirer.prompt({
    type: 'reactiveListPrompt',
    name: 'ReactiveListPrompt Example',
    message: 'Select response',
    emptyMessage: '⚠ Nothing to show',
    choices$,
    loader$,
});

const asyncItems: any[] = [];

const first = setTimeout(() => {
    choices$.next([
        { name: 'test1', value: 'test1' },
        { name: 'fetching...', value: 'test2', disabled: true },
        new inquirer.Separator(),
        { name: 'fetching...', value: 'test3' },
    ]);
    loader$.next({ isLoading: true });
}, 1000);

const second = setTimeout(() => {
    choices$.next([
        { name: 'test1', value: 'test1', disabled: 'asdasdas' },
        { name: 'fetching...', value: 'test2' },
        { name: 'get error', value: 'error', disabled: true, isError: true },
        new inquirer.Separator(),
        { name: 'example', value: 'test3', disabled: true },
    ]);
}, 2000);

const third = setTimeout(() => {
    choices$.next([
        { name: 'test1', value: 'test1', disabled: true, isError: true },
        { name: 'test2', value: 'test2', disabled: true, isError: true },
        { name: 'get error', value: 'error', disabled: true, isError: true },
        new inquirer.Separator(),
        { name: 'test3', value: 'test3', disabled: true, isError: true },
    ]);
}, 3000);

const fourth = setTimeout(() => {
    choices$.next([
        { name: 'test1', value: 'test1' },
        { name: 'test2', value: 'test2' },
        { name: 'get error', value: 'error', disabled: true, isError: true },
        new inquirer.Separator(),
        { name: 'test3', value: 'test3' },
    ]);

    loader$.next({
        isLoading: false,
        message: 'get all responses',
        // stopOption: {
        //     doneFrame: '⚠', // '✖'
        //     color: 'yellow', // 'red'
        // },
    });
}, 5000);

asyncItems.push(first);
asyncItems.push(second);
asyncItems.push(third);
asyncItems.push(fourth);

reactiveList.then(value => {
    choices$.complete();
    loader$.complete();
    asyncItems.map(item => clearTimeout(item));
    console.log('answer: ', value);
});
