I recommend checking out tty-prompt instead which provides a lot of this functionality!
Interactive user prompts on CLI for ruby.
idx = Ask.list "Look behind you...", [
"a three-headed monkey!",
"a pink pony",
"Godzilla"
]
# idx is the selected index
Takes optional default property that define the checked options
idx = Ask.checkbox "Monkey see, monkey...", [
"don't",
"eats Banana",
"do"
], default: [true, false, true]
# idx is an array containing the selections
Takes optional default property (string).
firstname = Ask.input "What's your name"
phone = Ask.input "What's your phone number", default: "123"
# name and phone are the responses for each question
password = Ask.input "Enter your password", password: true
# this will not prompt the password
Takes optional default property (true or false). The default default value is true.
value = Ask.confirm "Are you sure?"
# value is a boolean
Ask.confirm "Are you sure?", default: false
# Default is false
- question:
stringThe text to your are going to ask - elements:

You can pass this options as the lastest parameter

Thank you for contributing!
This is basically the wonderful Inquirer.js, just done for ruby. I was unable to find a good gem to handle user interaction in ruby as well as this module does in JS.
