Changelog

Unreleased

  • Fix autocomplete suggestions not being updated after a suggestion is accepted. Thanks @moritz-hoelting and @istudyatuni for reporting and fixing it!
  • Fix incorrect cursor placement when inputting CJK characters. Thanks @phostann (#270) for reporting it!
  • Removed unused dependency (newline-converter). Thanks @jonassmedegaard (#267) for catching it!

0.7.5 - 2024-04-23

  • Fix user-provided ANSI escape codes from being removed when rendering.
    • Introduced on 0.7.0, this regression was making it impossible to have colorised text inside the prompt.
    • Now ANSI escape codes are properly emitted when rendering the prompt in the terminal.

0.7.4 - 2024-03-25

  • Fix unexpected behaviors of keep_filter option in MultiSelect prompts:
    • Filter input is now correcly getting reset only when keep_filter == false.
    • When the filter input is reset, the list of options is now correctly reset as well. Thanks @Swivelgames for reporting #238.

0.7.3 - 2024-03-21

  • Fix cursor occasionally blinking in unexpected places.

0.7.2 - 2024-03-17

  • Pressing Ctrl+D now cancels the prompt. Thanks @mikecvet for the PR!
  • Add support for h and l bindings when vim_mode is enabled on MultiSelect prompts, clearing or selecting all options respectively. Thanks @afh for the PR!
  • Fix render issue #233 where cursor positioning at the end of a prompt was incorrect. Thanks @msrd0 and @Sydonian for reporting!

0.7.1 - 2024-03-10

  • Fix render issue #228 when using console crate as the terminal backend. Thanks @maospr for reporting.

0.7.0 - 2024-02-24

Breaking Changes

  • The Select and Multiselect Filter now scores input and is now expected to return an Option<i64>, making it possible to order/rank the list of options. #176 None: Will not be displayed in the list of options. Some(score): score determines the order of options, higher score, higher on the list of options.
  • Improved user experience on Password prompts. When there is a validation error, the input is cleared if the password is rendered using the Hidden display mode, matching the user expectation of having to write the password from scratch again. Thanks to @CM-IV for the questions on #149!
  • Allow lifetime customization of RenderConfig. #101. Thanks to @arturfast for the suggestion #95.
  • Implement fuzzy search as default on Select and MultiSelect prompts. #176
  • Revamped keybindings for DateSelect.

Features

  • Add one-liner helpers for quick scripts. #144.
  • Add new option on MultiSelect prompts to set all options to be selected by default. Thanks to @conikeec for the suggestion (#151)!
  • Add new option on Select/MultiSelect prompts allowing to reset selection to the first item on filter-input changes. #176
  • Emacs-like keybindings added where applicable:
    • Ctrl-p/Ctrl-n for up/down
    • Ctrl-b/Ctrl-f for left/right
    • Ctrl-j/Ctrl-g for enter/cancel
  • Vim keybindings are always supported in DateSelect prompts.
  • Added 'with_starting_filter_input' to both Select and MultiSelect, which allows for setting an initial value to the filter section of the prompt.
  • Added starting_input for CustomType. #194
  • Added 'without_filtering' to both Select and MultiSelect, useful when you want to simplify the UX if the filter does not add any value, such as when the list is already short.
  • Added 'with_answered_prompt_prefix' to RenderConfig to allow customization of answered prompt prefix.
  • Improved rendering, with optimizations on incremental rendering and terminal resizing.

Fixes

  • Fixed typos in the code's comments.
  • Fixed issue where inquire, using termion, would crash when receiving piped inputs.

Dependency changes (some breaking)

  • Upgraded underlying termion crate from v1.5 to v2.0.
  • Upgraded underlying bitflags from v1 to v2, which affects the Attributes and KeyModifiers crates. If you use any of bitflag's methods directly, you might be affected, refer to the bitflags changelog for more information.
  • Removed thiserror dependency in favor of implementing InquireError by hand. #146
  • Raised MSRV to 1.66 due to requirements in downstream dependencies.
  • MSRV is now explicitly set in the package definition.
  • Replaced lazy_static with once_cell as once_cell::sync::Lazy is being standardized and lazy_static is not actively maintained anymore.
  • Added fuzzy-matcher as an optional dependency for fuzzy filtering in Select and MultiSelect prompts #176

0.6.2 - 2023-05-07

0.6.1 - 2023-04-08

  • Fix incorrect highlighting of lists when filtered. #110. Thanks to @prime31 for reporting on #106.

0.6.0 - 2023-03-03

Breaking Changes

  • Selected option can now be styled independently of other options through RenderConfig::with_selected_option().
  • Now selected options are highlighted cyan by default.
  • Output dialogs on stderr instead of stdout #89.
  • New Minimum Supported Rust Version: 1.58.1.

0.5.3 - 2023-01-09

  • Addition of with_starting_date(NaiveDate) to DateSelect prompts.
    • Equivalent to with_default(NaiveDate), but with a more descriptive name.

0.5.2 - 2022-11-01

  • Fixed typo in the default error message when a password confirmation does not match. Thanks to @woodruffw for the PR! #79
    • Releases containing the typo: v0.5.0 and v0.5.1.

0.5.1 - 2022-10-31

  • Removed use of bool::then_some feature to keep minimum supported Rust version on 1.56.0.

0.5.0 - 2022-10-31

Breaking Changes

Password prompts now enable a secondary confirmation prompt by default:

  • Added support for password confirmation, which can be oupted-out of by adding the without_confirmation() method into the Password builder chain. Thanks to @hampuslidin for the PR! #73

0.4.0 - 2022-09-27

Breaking Changes

Multiple changes to the CustomType prompt:

  • Added support for validators, separating concerns between parsing and validating parsed values.
  • Decoupled default value formatting from the default value property. Now you can set default values without a specific formatter to accompany them.
  • Input is not cleared anymore when the parsing or validation fails.

New autocompletion mechanism for Text prompts

  • Existing methods still work, you just have to update with_suggester calls to with_autocomplete.
  • To know more about the new possibilities, check the updated documentation on the repository's README.

Other changes

  • Added shorthand method rgb(r: u8, g: u8, b: u8) to create a Color struct from RGB components. Thanks to @tpoliaw for the PR! #73

0.3.0 - 2022-08-19

Breaking Changes

Features #1 to #4 are all breaking changes and could break the compilation of your program.

Fix #2 represents a change in usability and might be an unexpected behavior.

Features

1. Completer

Completer for Text prompts, allowing users to auto-update their text input by pressing tab and not having to navigate through a suggestion list.

It takes the current input and return an optional suggestion. If any, the prompter will replace the current input with the received suggestion. Completer is an alias for &'a dyn Fn(&str) -> Result<Option<String>, CustomUserError>.

The auto-completion API will be revamped for v0.4.0, watch #69.

2. Support for custom prompt prefix in finished prompts.

Added answered_prompt_prefix configuration on RenderConfig, allowing users to set custom prefixes (e.g. a check mark) to prompts that have already been answered.

Additionally, prompts that have been answered are now differed by a > prefix instead of the usual ?.

Cheers to @href for the suggestion! #44

3. User-provided operations can be fallible.

Input validation, suggestions and completions are now fallible operations.

The return type of validators has been changed to Result<Validation, CustomUserError>. This means that validating the input can now be a fallible operation. The docs contain more thorough explanations and full-featured examples.

  • Successful executions of the validator should return a variant of the Validation enum, which can be either Valid or Invalid(ErrorMessage).
  • Unsuccessful executions return a CustomUserError type, which is an alias for Box<dyn std::error::Error + Send + Sync + 'static>.

The return type of suggesters has also been changed to allow fallible executions. The return type in successful executions continues to be Vec<String>, while CustomUserError is used with errors.

4. Validators are traits instead of closures.

All builtin validators have been turned into traits, with structs instead of macros as implementations.

This change makes it easier to share the validators throughout the code, especially if these carry their own owned data. For example, consider a validator that uses a compiled regular expression to verify the input. That validator can now be built as a new-type struct that encapsulates the regex.

Closures can still be used as before, but may not require to pass the argument type explicitly. The previous macros are now simply shorthands for the constructors of builtin validators.

Fixes

  • Fix a broken link in the struct.Text documentation.
  • Suggestions are now always loaded at the start of a Text prompt.
    • Previously, suggestions were only loaded and displayed if the Text prompt was created with a pre-existing input value or after the user entered any input.
    • Now, even if the prompt is started without any input and the user hasn't done anything, suggestions are displayed.

Changes

  • Update crossterm and console to their latest versions.

0.2.1 - 2021-10-01

Features

  • Add initial_value property to Text prompts, which sets an initial value for the prompt's text input. Huge thanks to @irevoire for the suggestion and implementation. #34.

Internals

  • Multiple changes to fix general warnings appearing throughout the code.

0.2.0 - 2021-09-14

Features

  • Add inquire::set_global_render_config method to set a global RenderConfig object to be used as the default one for all prompts created after the call.
  • Add KEY_BINDINGS.md to register all key bindings registered by inquire prompts.

Breaking changes

  • RenderConfig was made Copy-able and prompts now contain a RenderConfig field where it previously held a &'a RenderConfig. Consequently, with_render_config() methods now accept a RenderConfig argument instead of &'a RenderConfig.

0.1.0 - 2021-09-14

No changes in this version.

This is a bump to v0.1.0 as per @jam1garner's advice on the Virtual RustConf Discord server.

The library is already featureful enough to warrant a higher version number, bumping us to a minor release while we are still on our path to stabilization.

0.0.11 - 2021-09-06

Features

  • Add Editor prompt.
  • Add support to use console or termion as the library to handle terminals while keeping crossterm as the default choice.
  • Canceling the prompt by pressing ESC is now a different behavior than interrupting the prompt by pressing Ctrl+C.
    • If the prompt is canceled, the final prompt render indicates to the user that it was canceled via a <canceled> text, which is customizable via RenderConfig, and the prompt method returns Err(InquireError::OperationCanceled).
    • If the prompt is interrupted, the only clean-up action done is restoring the cursor position, and the prompt method returns Err(InquireError::OperationInterrupted).
  • Add a prompt_skippable method for all prompts.
    • This method is intended for flows where the user skipping/cancelling the prompt - by pressing ESC - is considered normal behavior. In this case, it does not return Err(InquireError::OperationCanceled), but Ok(None). Meanwhile, if the user does submit an answer, the method wraps the return type with Some.

Improvements

  • Removed need to add use inquire::validator::InquireLength when using one of the length-related built-in validators.
  • Cursor should not ficker anymore in wrong positions on Windows slower terminals.
  • Documentation on the Color enum used for render configuration has been improved.

Fixes

  • Fix dependencies the crate had on macros provided by the builtin_validators feature, making it now compile when the feature is not turned on.

0.0.10 - 2021-08-29

Features

  • Use native terminal cursors in text inputs by default.
  • Use native terminal cursor on date prompts when an optional style sheet for the selected cursor token was defined as None. The default behavior is still a custom style sheet which highlights the two columns pertaining to a date, instead of using a native cursor which can only highlight one column.
  • Respect NO_COLOR environment variable when prompt uses the default render configuration.

Fixes

  • By using a new method to identify the length of the rendered prompt, we avoid possible rendering errors (edge cases) when a string can not render into a single line in the terminal due to a smaller width. Inner calculations could previously predict that the rendered string would fit, by considering that 1 grapheme = 1 column width, but this is not true for e.g. emojis. Now we use unicode_width to fix this behavior.
  • Fixed case where Select/MultiSelect prompts were panicking when a user pressed the down arrow on an empty list, which happens when a filter input does not match any options. #30
  • Fixed incorrect indexes on the output of MultiSelect prompts, where the indexes inside a ListOption struct were relative to the output instead of the original input vector. #31
  • Fixed case where IO errors due to not finding a tty devices were not being caught and transformed to InquireError::NotTTY. #28

0.0.9 - 2021-08-28

General

  • Improve docs on the differences between raw_prompt and prompt on Select and MultiSelect prompts.
  • Bump version of crossterm dependency

Fixes

  • Regression introduced on v0.0.8 where select prompts were panicking when user pressed enter while no options were displayed (due to filter input). Tracked by #29 and tests were added for this to not happen again.

0.0.8 - 2021-08-25

Features

  • Password display toggle: By enabling this option in Password prompts via with_display_toggle_enabled(), the application user can choose to display the current text input for the password by pressing Ctrl+R, and hide it back by pressing the hotkey again. #18
  • Render mask of password input: Password prompts now support another render mode of the text input. Before, the only behavior was to not render anything about the current password input. Now, if the developer so chooses, they can activate the Masked mode where the current text input will be masked with special characters such as '*'. #19
  • PageUp, PageDown, Home and End hotkeys: PageUp and PageDown are now supported in Select, MultiSelect and Text (suggestions list) prompts, where they go a page up or down in the current list. Also, for Select and MultiSelect prompts, the Home and End keys were mapped to go to the start or end of the list, respectively. #17
  • Indication that list is scrollable: Now option lists, present in Select, MultiSelect and Text prompts, indicate whether there are more options other than the ones currently displayed. Little arrows are displayed at the top or bottom of the list indicating to which positions the user can scroll. #8
  • Generic option types for Select and MultiSelect prompts: Now, Select and MultiSelect prompts accept any type of options as input, allowing developers to pass a vector of owned objects and get back the full object picked by the user. #9

Fixes

  • Handling of new-line characters in user-provided strings: When putting \n on strings such as prompt messages, the library previously did not render it very well and did not account for it when cleaning the current prompt. This is fixed and you are free to create multi-line prompts! #15
  • Lines larger than terminal width broke rendering: When lines that were larger than the terminal width were rendered, it caused the internal line counter (used to clean the prompt) to be off, leading to buggy behavior. This was fixed by retrieving the terminal size at the start of the prompt. #21

0.0.7 - 2021-08-20

Features

  • Add possibility to set custom rendering config, allowing users to set:
    • Custom colors
    • Custom prefixes for several prompts
    • Custom checkboxes
  • Add "placeholder" feature for prompts with text input

0.0.6 - 2021-07-26

  • Add [previously non-existing] documentation.
  • Add CustomType prompt
  • Add revamped auto-completion support for Text prompts

0.0.5 - 2021-07-19

  • All function arguments now accept closures by having their type changed to &dyn Fn.
  • Improved input UX
    • Cursor added for better editing experience
    • Features/shortcuts added: Ctrl+Left, Ctrl+Right, Home, End, Delete, Ctrl+Delete

0.0.4 - 2021-07-14

  • Add a custom error enum InquireError, improving error handling for library users.
  • Improve support for validator functions, allowing the use of closures.
  • Change the terminal back-end from termion to crossterm, adding Windows support for this library.

0.0.3 - 2021-07-07

  • Reduce package footprint
  • Add custom parser option to Confirm prompt
  • Add DateSelect prompt

History

  • Wasn't documented :)
