const answer = await rawlist({
  message: 'Select a package manager',
  choices: [

  ],
});

Options

Property	Type	Required	Description
message	string	yes	The question to ask
choices	Choice[]	yes	List of the available choices.
loop	boolean	no	Defaults to true. When set to false, the cursor will be constrained to the top and bottom of the choice list without looping.
theme	See Theming	no	Customize look of the prompt.

Separator objects can be used in the choices array to render non-selectable lines in the choice list. By default it'll render a line, but you can provide the text as argument (new Separator('-- Dependencies --')). This option is often used to add labels to groups within long list of options.

Choice object

The Choice object is typed as

type Choice<Value> = {
  value: Value;
  name?: string;
  short?: string;
  key?: string;
};

Here's each property:

• value: The value is what will be returned by await rawlist().
• name: This is the string displayed in the choice list.
• short: Once the prompt is done (press enter), we'll use short if defined to render next to the question. By default we'll use name.
• key: The key of the choice. Displayed as key) name.

choices can also be an array of string, in which case the string will be used both as the value and the name.

Theming

You can theme a prompt by passing a theme object option. The theme object only need to includes the keys you wish to modify, we'll fallback on the defaults for the rest.

type Theme = {
  prefix: string | { idle: string; done: string };
  spinner: {
    interval: number;
    frames: string[];
  };
  style: {
    answer: (text: string) => string;
    message: (text: string, status: 'idle' | 'done' | 'loading') => string;
    error: (text: string) => string;
    highlight: (text: string) => string;
  };
};
