Prompt the user for a series of answers.

Installation

$ npm install prompt-for

Example

var prompt = require('prompt-for');

var schema = {
  name: 'string',
  siblings: 'number',
  birthday: 'date',
  deceased: 'boolean'
};

prompt(schema, function(err, answers){
  assert(answers.name == 'Ian');
  assert(answers.siblings == 2);
  assert(answers.birthday.getTime() == 1343260800000);
  assert(answers.deceased == false);
});

And if you're being lazy...

prompt(['name', 'website'], function(err, answers){
  assert(answers.name == 'Ian');
  assert(answers.name == 'ianstormtaylor.com');
});

Or even...

prompt('name', function(err, answers){
  assert(answers.name == 'Ian');
});
