@inquirer-cli/number

CLI tool for numeric input using Inquirer.js.

Installation

No installation required. Use npx to run the tool directly:

npx -y @inquirer-cli/number [...options]

Note: The -y flag is used with npx to skip the installation prompt. This is necessary because the CLI's output is consumed by $() in bash, which would otherwise cause the script to freeze.

Usage

Prompt the user for numeric input:

age=$(npx -y @inquirer-cli/number -r "Enter your age")
echo "You are $age years old."

Options

• <message> (required): The message to display to the user.
• -r, --required: Make the input required.
• -h, --help: Show the help message and exit.

Example

#!/bin/sh
age=$(npx -y @inquirer-cli/number -r "Enter your age")
echo "You are $age years old."
