? Enter a password aaa

{"password":"aaa"}
when i enter my password ,the password was showed on then terminal,and i pressed enter key ,it showed a new line with my password hidden
Same happens to me. I debug a lot. Seems when ever you run js as bash. It not working as it suppose to work on git-bash. can be reproduce
#!/usr/bin/env node
// rest of the code.
examples/password.js
I can reproduce this issue using nodemon 1.14.3:
gms@sirius:~/work/HOT/sandbox (master)$ ./node_modules/.bin/nodemon ./index.js
[nodemon] 1.14.3
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] watching: *.*
[nodemon] starting `node ./index.js`
? test password: 1234
? test password: ****
testinput: {
"password": "1234"
}
but not, if I run the same code from node 8.9.4 directly:
gms@sirius:~/work/HOT/sandbox (master)$ node --version
v8.9.4
gms@sirius:~/work/HOT/sandbox (master)$ node ./index.js
? test password: ****
testinput: {
"password": "1234"
}
the code for the tests above:
const inquirer = require('inquirer');
inquirer.prompt([{name: 'password', type: 'password', message: 'test password: ', mask: '*'}]).then((answers) => {
console.log(`testinput: `, JSON.stringify(answers, undefined, 2));
return answers.password;
});
my shell is bash 4.4.12:
gms@sirius:~/work/HOT/sandbox (master)$ bash -version
GNU bash, Version 4.4.12(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
...
@gms1 yeah, highly probable Nodemon doesn't pipe a fully interactive prompt by default to the subprocess it spawns.
Any chance other people reporting this issue are also not running Inquirer through raw node process?
