N/A, this is about TTYless enviroments and thus no terminal

Description

Prompts does zero checking if standard input is a tty. Without an interactive tty, which can be caused running commands from cron or in Docker without allocating one, this causes stty here to fail with stty: standard input: Not a tty. Since there is zero checks to see if this was successful or checking that it's on a tty separately, the code always assumes it is on a tty. When this while loop is entered, there are no time out checks to break out of the loop, nor is there a there something to slow it down since fread(STDIN, 1024) here instantly returns zero length string with out a tty (assuming nothing has been piped in there, or has otherwise been drained).

This has the following consequences, assuming that scheduled commands in cron trigger this, 100% CPU thread utilization per instance started and slow memory exhaustion as concurrently running commands pile up.

There are a few ways I can see fixing this, from detecting the lack of a TTY & throwing an exception to end everything, to accepting default options. My assumption is detect and throw is the better one, but I'm happy to be proven wrong.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Add a command that uses Illuminate\Console\ConfirmableTrait to the scheduler in Laravel, while forgetting to set --force for production
   • Alternatively, upgrade a package you already have a scheduled command for that migrated to using laravel/prompts, and not realize the consequences that change causes.
2. Wait for schedule to execute the command without a TTY.
   • Alternatively, you can run a command in your shell this way to execute it without a TTY attached: (setsid php artisan activitylog:clean) </dev/null
   • Yes, the parentheses are needed, use of the subshell avoids setsid forking and going into the background, and the /dev/null redirect is to remove keyboard input, like it would be while cron runs.
3. Profit!

Hey @jessarcher,

I don't know but sometimes I like this functionality.. Can we cached the last enter value?

Description

When using a text() field, in Laravel 8 at least, when the zero number key is pressed, it is causing an ErrorException as shown below here vendor/laravel/prompts/src/Concerns/TypedValue.php:43. This is with or without other alpha-numeric characters, as soon as zero is pressed, the exception fires.

You can paste 0's in, it's just on keypress.

Steps To Reproduce

When entering text into a text() field using a keyboard, not pasting, press the zero number key and exception fires.

Description

When using a color within options the right border is not aligned but shifted to the left.
So far, I noticed the issue with select, multiselect and search.
This issue seems somehow similar to #29.

As visible in the screenshot the number of chars the border is shifted seems to be related to the number of chars used to identify the color.

P.S.: I love the new prompts 😍

Steps To Reproduce

<?php

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use Illuminate\Console\Command;

use function Laravel\Prompts\select;

class Dummy extends Command
{
    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'dummy';

    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = 'Dummy command';

    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     *
     * @return int
     */
    public function handle(): int
    {
        select(
            'See the issue?',
            [
                'yes' => '<bg=green>yes</>',
                'no' => '<bg=red>no</>',
                'maybe' => '<bg=yellow>maybe</>',
                'dontKnow' => 'don\'t know',
            ],
        );
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

This doesn't work to dynamically choose whether a prompt is single or multi-select:

        $prompt_function = $data->isMultiple() ? 'multiselect' : 'select';

        $value = $prompt_function(
          label: 'Enter the ' . $data->getLabel(),
          options: $options,
        );

I assume it's something to do with how PHP functions are imported?

I think it would be useful if select() could take a 'multivalued' boolean parameter. multiselect() could remain as a shorthand for that.

It seems like Laravel Console Tests are not supported. E.g. the function Laravel\Prompts\search seems to be just blocking the test runner.

I've tried to upgrade churchtools/changelogger to use Laravel Prompts.
Everything seems to be working fine.
However, the tests do fail / never finish execution.

E.g. this test just blocks: https://github.com/hettiger/changelogger/blob/2a795d5a42075ff32ff1d10e0976a3e067488c0f/tests/Feature/Commands/NewChangelogTest.php#L12-L33

It seems like the ->expectsQuestion('Type of change', 'New feature') call fails to provide the answer to e.g. the following prompt:

https://github.com/hettiger/changelogger/blob/2a795d5a42075ff32ff1d10e0976a3e067488c0f/app/Commands/NewCommand.php#L90-L97

Please add support for Laravel Console Tests to Laravel Prompts. That would be awesome.

Hi,

It seems like a weird interaction between the "suggest" prompt and the required flag where the first time you select an option you get the "Required" error.

Steps To Reproduce

$database = suggest(
    label: 'Name of the database to dump',
    options: $this->databases(),
    required: true
);

1. Press the down arrow key to choose a database from the list.
2. Press ENTER to select the database
3. Get the "Required" error message
4. Pressing ENTER again clears the error and make the actual selection.

I don't know if this is really a bug, but for cases where we have words with accents, when erasing the word, a ball symbol like this one remains in the terminal, which also affects the layout of the layout on the right:

For example: Pagination in Portuguese 👉 Paginação

Steps To Reproduce

Try using a word that contains accents and then delete it.

i see in composer.json require "illuminate/collections": "^10.0" which is support only for laravel 10, i have an old laravel apps using version 8 and 9, i want using this prompts package 😄

When running a task with multiple spinners that are over with particularly quickly, only one spinner instance is shown, but the message: argument changes:

This is great, but if multiple tasks run quickly, the spinner simply appears to keep the text from the first instance that was around long enough to render the message:

Of course, you can add info calls to intersperse them:

But the spinner disappears and just leaves the info messages in one big "dump".

Suggestion: Persistent / Completed spinner.

When a spinner completes it's callback, the spinner persists in the UI, but with a checkmark next to it, or, if it failed, a red cross?

This way, you get: predictable output for tasks and can see previous completions.

I would suggest a persist argument to the class:

spin(
  callback: fn () => $this->doSomething(),
  message: 'Calling the API',
  persist: true,
);

Please excuse the bad photoshop next...

Something like this?

Would love to know your thoughts.

Scenario: You have a command that outputs raw data (like json or csv) to the console, and it uses laravel/prompts. You want to save the output to a file, so you run php artisan some:command > path/to/file.json.
Unfortunately the prompt is using stdout, so it gets sent to the file and you don't see anything in the console.

I figured out a workaround that makes the prompt use stderr:

$output = $this->getOutput()->getOutput();
if ($output instanceof ConsoleOutputInterface) {
    Prompt::setOutput($output->getErrorOutput());
}

It works great, but it would be nice if there was an easier and more intuitive way of doing it. Maybe an optional argument that allows you to pass an OutputInterface, or a static Prompt::stderr() method. And maybe consider using stderr by default in the next major release, unless there are any drawbacks that I'm not aware of.

Good day,
asked on Discord yesterday and got said to open an issue.

I migrated the Migration Console Command in my application to Prompts, the informational message intro is shown, and the confirm question too, but after this nothing else, until the command is done, for local environment this does work, but on staging/production it doesnt, as some parts need manual input there.

Maybe this video shows what I mean:
https://github.com/laravel/prompts/assets/695535/0fb409e9-4b61-4f7a-bb65-eeae6728c929

Even if I remove the spin (I just tested something with it, as it is not documented), nothing else is shown, the full code of my migration can be found in this Gist:
https://gist.github.com/syntafin/dc028e3d9a6863dcef5d26a0bbc9ea96

Last shown prompt is in Line 50-56, everything else doesnt appear (migration still completes on local).

Steps To Reproduce

• Use Laravel Prompts
• After 3 Prompts, everything else is skipped

Amazing work, Jess. laravel/prompts is mint 👌

I would love to suggest a progress bar component.

It's not really an input, but it is something you could cancel, or it could be combined with a text input - for example entering a URL to download from.

For example:

• Label
• Cancelled state
• Customise the display value for the numerator/denominator
• Pending mode (like a loading spinner variant if progress is unknowable)
• Parallel progress bars? - or maybe parallel output could be a seperate feature of its own
• Maybe Http download support, i.e. sugar for Http::sink('/path/to/file')->withOptions(['progress' => ...])->get($url)

When presented with a multi-select prompt, it's not clear what input is expected in order to select options:

I looked in the docs but didn't see any info there. Ultimately I ended up on the issue tracker where another user had the same issue: #41 I tried various key combinations (y/n, 1/0, return, tab/ctrl/shift/alt/cmd combinations) but spacebar wasn't one of them 🫣. A line that says "Use spacebar to select options" or a mention in the docs (or both) would definitely help here.

@jessarcher You mentioned the possibility of adding this feature #41 (comment) so I figured I'd open up an issue to +1 the idea.

No progress bar or multiple progress bars?

If one of the options passed to search() is longer than the size of the displayed box, the output looks broken, and using the up and down arrows makes the whole thing go haywire.

Description

When using multiselect prompts with arrays matching the array_is_list requirement, the selected options are displayed differently as they are returned.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a new command with the following code:

$selectedPermissions = multiselect(
    'Select permissions',
    [
        'create',
        'read',
        'write',
        'delete',
    ],
    [
        'read',
        'write',
    ]
);

dump($selectedPermissions);

2. Select the default values (read + write)
3. Observe the discrepancy between the displayed selected permissions and the actual selected permissions:

 ┌ Select permissions ──────────────────────────────────────────┐
 │ create                                                       │
 │ read                                                         │
 └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

array:2 [ // app/Console/Commands/Bug.php:45
  0 => "read"
  1 => "write"
]

You can find a minimal example on a brand-new Laravel project here: https://github.com/irobin591/laravel-prompts-bug (see app/Console/Commands/Bug.php)

I yesterday tried to contribute to the project to support a natural scroll method, and I realized there is no view state variable. For detail:

1. My expectation: Only when I scroll to an item outside of the displayed one, do I scroll to the displayed item on the page.
2. Actual: When I scroll the list (select, multiselect, search), and options count is bigger than height, the highlighted option is always last one of view, related code:

   prompts/src/Themes/Default/Concerns/DrawsScrollbars.php

   Line 47 in a7fc438

   return $lines->slice($focused - $height + 1, $height);

3. And I tried to add a variable to render, I realize renderer creates every input time. So I also added a static instance variable to persist this object, but another bug appeared: it will top up the previous window.
4. As far as I know, the Prompt class is the only one that can be used as storing view state.

I would be happy if you could provide some ideas or if this issue could be resolved appropriately. I don't know if this is more reasonable.

Description

Hi Jess and Co. Prompts is a useful package and I appreciate the effort put in to it.

The relatively recent change f48bc94 forces SelectPrompt's $required bool|string to not be false anymore.

This broke the prompts for me because of the way I use the SelectPrompt.

In my project, I give the user a number of options to choose from. The last option is sometimes called "Back" and sometimes called "Quit", and has a key of '' (an empty string). For me an empty string is a consistent way of checking that the user wants to return from the current prompt / go back / exit / quit etc without having to worry about the wording. e.g.

$options = [
    'database' => 'Database Management',
    'deploy' => 'Deployment',
    '' => 'Quit',
];

$choice = select(
    label: "Main",
    options: $options,
    required: false, // <<<< This would allow '' (i.e. Quit) to be chosen
);

if ($choice === '') {
    break;
}

(My actual code is abstracted and the $options are passed in, so it's less hard-coded than this).

I can get around it by setting $required to '', but it seems odd to solve it that way.

The commit explicitly checks to make sure that $required is not false, so I thought I'd ask about the reason behind that? Or am I simply not using it as intended?

Steps To Reproduce

$options = [
    'database' => 'Database Management',
    'deploy' => 'Deployment',
    '' => 'Quit',
];

$choice = select(
    label: "Main",
    options: $options,
);

if ($choice === '') {
    break;
}

The Quit option can't be picked.

Currently documentation link provided is broken. it leads to 404 page. I tried to search for it but couldn't find right path or else i would have sent pull request.

Steps To Reproduce

go to https://github.com/laravel/prompts

in official documentation section link is provided https://laravel.com/docs/prompts

when you click the link it redirects to 404 page.

I would love to see some support on sections.

Symfony has implementation for that, but was never really used in Laravel.

What it does is creating a segment in which you can add or delete lines while also having other segments which can be edited independently from each other.

One of the ideas is to be able to clear out prompts when entered information, but we can do so many things with sections. We could do live updating of sections using Laravel Reverb ;-)

An example of what could be done:

section('foo', function(){
     // anything in here happens within the section
     info('hello');
     // .... creating progressbars, requesting information.
})->clear();
info('we are done');

Another example:

info('asking questions:', section: 'foo');
$bar = section('bar');

$name = text('your name?', section: 'bar');
$bar->clear();
$password = password('your password?', section: $bar);
$bar->replace(
  function(){
     // replaces the entire content. Imagine it does more output.
     info('Thanks!');
  }
)

info('done asking questions.', section: 'foo');

If one of the options passed to search() is longer than the size of the displayed box, the output looks broken, and using the up and down arrows makes the whole thing go haywire.

Description

Previous calls to $this->callSilent remove any output of the new prompts package.
Removing any $this->callSilent calls fixes the problem.

Even a simple example command as this:

class TestCommand extends Command
{
    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'app:test-command';

    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = 'Command description';

    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     */
    public function handle()
    {
            $this->callSilent('about');
            confirm('Is this visible?');
    }
}

When running this command, no output is visible in the terminal but the application is waiting for user input.
Removing the $this->callSilent('about'); call fixes the issue.

Edit:

Manually calling Prompt::setOutput($this->output); also fixes the problem, like this:

$this->callSilent('about');
Prompt::setOutput($this->output);
confirm('Is this visible?');

So I suppose that the callSilent somehow resets Prompt's output interface.

Steps To Reproduce

I created a test repository here: https://github.com/mpociot/prompts-call-silent

To reproduce:

git clone https://github.com/mpociot/prompts-call-silent.git
cd prompts-call-silent
cp .env.example .env
php artisan key:generate

When I input multi-byte characters (such as Chinese, Japanese, Emoji, etc.), the width of the border at the end changes. These multibyte characters occupy 2 spaces, but the calculation boundary may use its actual length (3 spaces).

I asked about this on Twitter last week, but I realize that is not the best place to discuss this. I'm really digging the interactive prompts (arrow-based choice lists & completion dropdowns) of this library! This is something I was trying to introduce to Symfony Console for many years (but lacking the stty skills needed for this).

Would it be an idea to see if this part of Prompts can be ported back to Symfony Console, a library you already depend on in the Laravel ecosystem and this library? That way, a larger part of the PHP ecosystem can have this much better terminal UX (including tooling used in the Laravel ecosystem like Composer and PHPstan).

The way I see it, this functionality is a perfect fit for the Question classes in Symfony Console. Laravel Prompts can then use the question classes, and add the custom "Laravel style" (plus any other extra integration, like the helper functions) on top of it.

Of course, given the code in this library is MIT, I can always try this proposal without your consent. But I'm looking forward to hear your ideas about this (e.g. did you try this and reached a major blocker already, is this just "not worth it" for your time, are you happy to try this out, or can I stalk a bit when experimenting with this myself 😁 )

I'm using search() to request data from an external API and it would be really cool to have some kind of debounce to not make a request on every keystroke.

Is there some smart way of doing this?

Hi, I'm unable to select any options with multi-select prompts.

This is my first experience using the new prompts package by running breeze:install on a new verison of Laravel. I want to enable options here (e.g. "Dark mode") but seem unable to do so. I can only submit it with none selected.

Windows WSL2, same issue both via VS Code terminal and also directly in Windows Terminal for Ubuntu.

laravel prompts 0.1.3

I have tried several different control and alphanumeric keys on my keyboard, to no effect. I can only navigate up and down between options, but not select them.

In another issue, @jessarcher mentioned this:

Could you try running the following minimal debugging script on the affected command line

This is my result with that script... entering: UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, h, j, ENTER, Ctrl+C:

"\u001b[A"
"\u001b[B"
"\u001b[D"
"\u001b[C"
"h"
"j"
"\n"
"\u0003"

How do I select an option from this list?

Steps To Reproduce

Use any artisan command that uses an optional multi-select list of options, e.g. php artisan breeze:install

Let's take one example:

Now I will down to the next page which is already PR pending. But when I type rather than the default is null at that time we will introduce search!!.

Description

First time bug submitter for OSS, if I need to add any more detail let me know!

When using Spinner (not documented yet, found when viewing source) if rendered statically, it will run $callback() twice.

It appears in the Spinner.php class, in the spin() method it calls it here:

if (! function_exists('pcntl_fork')) {
    $this->renderStatically($callback);
}

protected function renderStatically(Closure $callback): mixed
    {
        $this->static = true;
        $this->render();
        return $callback();
    }

And then regardless if it ran via the renderStatically() method, it will run it again in the try block.

Steps To Reproduce

Create a spinner, and have it call statically. Add a echo to the function called, and it will write it to terminal twice if the spinner is rendered statically, only once if rendered normally.
