TEXT_PICKER

TEXT_PICKER - Ask the user to interactively enter text via the UI

When to use it

Any time text is required - such as a host name or user name.

  TEXT_PICKER [text prompt] [default text]

text prompt

Prompt to show the user. Prompts should be kept short enough to fit on the device display.

default text

Default value to populate the picker.

warning

Default text should typically be provided. To prompt the user with no default, use a blank quoted string: "".

TEXT_PICKER will wait until the user has made a selection, pausing the payload.

TEXT_PICKER exits with a return code of 0 if the user continues, and non-zero if the user cancels.

TEXT_PICKER returns the text as the output.

  __host=$(TEXT_PICKER "Target hostname" "foo-client") || exit 0

  __demo=$(TEXT_PICKER "No default text" "") || exit 0

info

Remember to enclose the prompt text in quotes!
