@inquirer-cli/checkbox v1.0.6

@inquirer-cli/checkbox

CLI tool for selecting multiple options using Inquirer.js.

Installation

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

npx -y @inquirer-cli/checkbox [...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

Prompt the user to select multiple options:

choices=$(npx -y @inquirer-cli/checkbox -r "Select your favorite colors" -c "Red" -c "Blue" -c "Green")
echo "You selected:"
for choice in $choices; do
  echo "- $choice"
done

Options

• <message> (required): The message to display to the user.
• -c, --choice <choice> (required): Define a choice (can be used multiple times).
• -r, --required: Make the input required.
• -h, --help: Show the help message and exit.

Example

#!/bin/sh
choices=$(npx -y @inquirer-cli/checkbox -r "Select your favorite colors" -c "Red" -c "Blue" -c "Green")
echo "You selected:"
for choice in $choices; do
  echo "- $choice"
done
