var questions = [
{
type: 'rawlist',
name: 'dinner',
message: 'What would you like to do?',
choices: [
'Order a pizza',
'Make a reservation',
enquirer.separator(),,
'Ask opening hours',
'Talk to the receptionist'
]
},
{
type: 'rawlist',
name: 'size',
message: 'What size would you like?',
choices: ['Jumbo', 'Large', 'Standard', 'Medium', 'Small', 'Micro']
}
];
enquirer.ask(questions)
.then(function (answers) {
console.log(answers);
});
Expressive format
Register questions using enquirer's .question
method:
enquirer.question('dinner', {
type: 'rawlist',
message: 'What would you like to do?',
choices: [
'Order a pizza',
'Make a reservation',
enquirer.separator(),
'Ask opening hours',
'Talk to the receptionist'
]
});
enquirer.question('size', 'What size would you like?', {
type: 'rawlist',
choices: ['Jumbo', 'Large', 'Standard', 'Medium', 'Small', 'Micro']
});
enquirer.ask(['dinner', 'size'])
.then(function (answers) {
console.log(answers);
//=> { dinner: 'Order a pizza', size: 'Large' }
});
