commander.js - .prompt removed, now what?
node.js
Solution
Update: looks like promptly is the new home for these functions.
This change is being discussed in this github issue. My guess is TJ thinks that functionality belongs in a separate module. Not sure if he plans to migrate the code to a new module or going to leave that to the community, though. But in the end probably one of these outcomes will occur:
- TJ (or someone else, possibly you) will publish a new library containing this functionality
- You can just grab the relevant code and make a library or stuff it into your project until a public module is available
Problem
In commander.js, when asking for user input, I would use the prompt method: ``` program.prompt('name: ', function(name){ console.log('hi %s', name); }); ``` But now that method has been removed in version 2.0.0. What is the new method to ask for user input?
