NAME

       App::Cmd::Plugin::Prompt - plug prompting routines into your commands

VERSION

       version 1.005

SYNOPSIS

       In your app:

         package MyApp;
         use App::Cmd::Setup -app => {
           plugins => [ qw(Prompt) ],
         };

       In your command:

         package MyApp::Command::dostuff;
         use MyApp -command;

         sub run {
           my ($self, $opt, $args) = @_;

           return unless prompt_yn('really do stuff?', { default => 1 });

           ...
         }

SUBROUTINES

   prompt_str
         my $input = prompt_str($prompt, \%opt)

       This prompts a user for string input.  It can be directed to persist until input is
       'acceptable'.

       Valid options are:

       •   input: optional coderef, which, when invoked, returns the user's response; default is
           to read from STDIN.

       •   output: optional coderef, which, when invoked (with two arguments: the prompt and the
           choices/default), should prompt the user; default is to write to STDOUT.

       •   valid: an optional coderef which any input is passed into and which must return true
           in order for the program to continue

       •   default: may be any string; must pass the 'valid' coderef (if given)

       •   choices: what to display after the prompt; default is either the 'default' parameter
           or nothing

       •   no_valid_default: do not test the 'default' parameter against the 'valid' coderef

       •   invalid_default_error: error message to throw when the 'default' parameter is not
           valid (does not pass the 'valid' coderef)

   prompt_yn
         my $bool = prompt_yn($prompt, \%opt);

       This prompts the user for a yes or no response and won't give up until it gets one.  It
       returns true for yes and false for no.

       Valid options are:

        default: may be yes or no, indicating how to interpret an empty response;
                 if empty, require an explicit answer; defaults to empty

   prompt_any_key($prompt)
         my $input = prompt_any_key($prompt);

       This routine prompts the user to "press any key to continue."  ($prompt, if supplied, is
       the text to prompt with.
