I want the main.js loop to be re-selectable when the user has selected option.
here the code
main.js
const prompts = require('prompts');
var option = require('./option.js');
(async () => {
const response = await prompts({
type: 'select',
name: 'value',
message: 'choice',
choices: [
{ title: 'option1', description: 'option1 description', value: '1' },
{ title: 'exit', description: 'exit from script',value: '0' }
],
initial: 1
}
).then(response => {
if(response.value == 1){
console.info('you select option1');
option.option1()
// i want to run main.js again here
}
else {
console.info('you select exit');
// i want to exit from main.js
}
});
})();
option.js
module.exports = {
option1:function() {
console.log("You have selected option 1")
}
}
When the user has selected option1, after the option.js script’s function is done, I would like it to return to the new options page.
I’ve tried many ways but I still can’t find a way. I don’t know what I should do, I have been stuck with this problem for hours.
>Solution :
Is this the solution to your problem? Also notice when using await, dont use then.
const prompts = require('prompts');
var option = require('./option.js');
async function prompt () {
const response = await prompts({
type: 'select',
name: 'value',
message: 'choice',
choices: [
{ title: 'option1', description: 'option1 description', value: '1' },
{ title: 'exit', description: 'exit from script',value: '0' }
],
initial: 1
})
return response.value === '1'?option.option1() & prompt():false
}
prompt()
