Support arrow keys in bun init prompts

Open JacksonKearl opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

What is the problem this feature would solve?

Currently, attempting to use arrow keys to navigate around text entered in bun init prompts results in ^[[D^[[D^[[D^[[A^[[B^[[B^[[B^[[A^[[A^[[B^[[A^[f^[b^[f^[f^[f-type feedback, rather than cursor navigation.

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

Some sort of support for readline-style navigation.

What alternatives have you considered?

The with-readline wrapper package works well enough (with-readline bun init)

can confirm this is an issue on

This is also an issue in for await (const line of console)

  • Left/Right arrow should natively move the cursor (but instead prints ^[[D/^[[C)

  • Up/Down arrow could have a configurable option to change current input based on command history(command history can be either native or implemented by user) (but instead prints ^[[A/^[[B)

tested on Windows 10 + Bun v1.1.11
