@anbayanyay_twitter This issue is not specific to TTY::Reader. This is to do with cooked vs raw terminal mode. Even if you use Ruby's
getc method you will get similar behaviour. Had a similar issue recently to do with TTY::Prompt behaviour (see piotrmurach/tty-prompt#137). Glad you managed to figure this out!
@b1tt0 I can assure you that TTY::Cursor works fine. Please make sure that you print cursor content to the terminal (read https://github.com/piotrmurach/tty-cursor#1-usage)
@keilmillerjr_gitlab Usage of a browser requires some sort of HTTP server on that side, it's quite cumbersome, but still possible, may be there are open source implementations of that out there already. I don't know your circumstances, but perhaps the easiest way of running a terminal app remotely is SSH
I overwrote a command description from "desc A" to "desc B" but it did not work. Am I doing wrong...?

@narutaro The
teletype isn't yet that smart to figure this out, unfortunately. When you come across things that could be improved or have suggestions please post them on the project issues tracker or even better submit a pull request. At the moment I'm updating all tty components and working on the tty itself to provide a bit smoother experience in v0.11.0.
Thank you for the wonderful tty-prompt and tty-screen gems. I just built these TUIs with them: https://github.com/AndyObtiva/rake-tui / https://github.com/AndyObtiva/rvm-tui
Hi @piotrmurach , I have question about tty-option. In https://github.com/piotrmurach/tty-option#2510-validate say Will internally cause an exception TTY::Option::InvalidArgument that will make params invalid. but I execute the same first example and dont get a exception
Hi @inyerade, one of the 'features', as explained in the readme docs, is that "Parsing doesn't raise errors by default and collects issues to allow for better user experience." The sentence that you cited "Will internally cause an exception TTY::Option::InvalidArgument that will make params invalid. " means that inside the TTY::Option the specific error is raised that makes the
params invalid but no actual errors are raised. I would suggest reading parse method section and params section. I wrote the Readme to document all the APIs and usage but please free to submit PR if something is missing or not clear enough. I'm keen to make sure the docs are complete and easy to use.
help needed: for some reason, I "gem install tty" but don't get "teletype" as a new command.

@JeffreyArtworks Unfortunately, this is not an issue related to
tty gem. I verified by installing v0.10.0 that the teletype executable works as expected. I'd potentially look into reinstalling Ruby version that you're using. However, this is an issue for yourself to figure out why your system fails to find Ruby installed executables.
@bashforger Thank you! I'd also consider using tools like rbenv that will handle all the switching between Ruby versions and binaries a far better experience than doing it manually.
Hi @piotrmurach, TTY Toolkit is great and thank you for saving a lot of our time. However, I have a small problem. I can't figure out how to send the user input from
prompt.ask(">>") do |q|
q.validate(/(close)|(\A[0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?[\+\-\*\√][0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?\z)/, "Invalid question, #{ENV["USER"].capitalize}. Try again.\a")
endto a global variable. How may I do this?
@piotrmurach Been awhile since I've checked out
piotrmurach/tty-table#36
TTY::Table, I was wondering what is the status of getting the following merged:piotrmurach/tty-table#36
I will buy 🍺 if you help me get a handle on this. Or a :coffee:
# Describe available commands or one specific command.
I'm seeing most of it lives in cli.rb but not where that is inherited from
Hey! we have created our own tooling for interacting with a lot of github repos, based on tty. We love it so far, and want to extend the tooling now. As we access the github api often and need some prepared data for tests, I want to use WebMock/VCR to mock the GH api. Now, generated tests in RSpec use a :cli type and backticks to invoke the command, enabling us to check the output, exactly like I want it, but: webmock and VCR do not work when invoking the cli via backticks, it seems. Any ideas how to do this?
an example, I want to do sth like this:
RSpec.describe "`parc-cli version` command", type: :cli do
it "executes `parc-cli version --check` command successfully" do
VCR.use_cassette("version-check") do
output = `parc-cli version --check`
# assert here
end
end
end
This does not work -- calling the command directly works as expected.
According to the docs I can use the key property to specify a key press, but I find that only works if I set .enum_select or .expand, not when I specify it directly via .select https://gist.github.com/Eiam8821/1cda292f5d875f461b99647d19b0b28c .
I'd expect pressing 1 to automatically choose "A"
@Eiam8821 You're right, this is only supported by
enum_select and expand prompts. There is an piotrmurach/tty-prompt#151 and a piotrmurach/tty-prompt#152 where this feature is discussed. I cannot tell you when this will be done.
@sebastian-schuth When you invoke a command with backticks, it's run in another process that knows nothing about your Webmock/VCR setup. One solution is to, for example, spin up a mock server that sends a canned response whenever your executable issues a particular request. A long time ago I wrote a gem communist which helped me do just that inside cucumber stories. It would spin a server on localhost before each feature test that would intercept requests and return response described in a cucumber feature.

Hi guys I'm having some trouble using tty out of the box. I just have a simple ruby script and I required it at the top and these are the errors I get:
require 'git'
require "tty-prompt"
repo_name_list = ['repo_name_1', 'repo_name_2']
prompt = TTY::Prompt.new
prompt.multi_select("Which repos would you like to clone locally?", repo_name_list)
# NoMethodError: undefined method `disabled?' for nil:NilClass
prompt.enum_select("Which repos would you like to clone locally?", repo_name_list)
# NoMethodError: undefined method `disabled?' for nil:NilClass
