@inquirer/prompts

@inquirer/prompts@8.7.4

What's new

• checkbox() no longer accepts edits or submissions while an async validator is pending — the selection is captured at submit time, and repeated Enter presses don't run the validator more than once (@inquirer/checkbox, #2296).

• Prompt output no longer leaks when a prompt is cancelled or aborted before its first render — the deferred initial render is now cancelled during cleanup, so a settled prompt never writes to an ended output stream or reinstalls keypress listeners (@inquirer/core, #2318, relates to #1816).

• number() now treats whitespace-only input as empty, so a space-padded submit resolves to the default/undefined answer instead of a validation error (@inquirer/number, #2307).

• Packages with only test-file changes are no longer version-bumped at release time (internal tooling; #2319).

• @inquirer/select@^5.2.7

@inquirer/prompts@8.7.3

What's new

• search() no longer submits a stale choice when Enter is pressed while an async search is still loading — the prompt waits for the fresh results, the query is preserved, and repeated Enter presses during validation no longer run the async validator more than once (@inquirer/search, #2291, closes #2290).

• confirm() now always accepts the single keystrokes y/n even with localized keywords, and unrecognized input no longer silently falls back on the default answer (@inquirer/confirm, #2281, closes #2279).

• expand() and rawlist() now ignore surrounding whitespace in answers (@inquirer/expand, @inquirer/rawlist, #2280).

• All package READMEs now document the Deno install command (deno add npm:@inquirer/prompts) alongside the npm/yarn/pnpm/bun ones (#2269).

@inquirer/prompts@8.7.2

What's new

• Fixed a race where keystrokes batched in the same tick as the key that settled a prompt could still reach keypress handlers after the prompt was done, cancelled, or aborted (@inquirer/core, #2255, closes #1816).

• confirm() now trims surrounding whitespace from answers before matching yes/no keywords (@inquirer/confirm, #2254).

Included

• @inquirer/checkbox@^5.2.5

@inquirer/prompts@8.7.1

What's new

• All bundled prompts now pin @inquirer/type to an exact version in their published manifests. Since these type definitions leak into consumers' tsc runs, a semver range on the types-only dependency could break downstream TypeScript builds without any change to Inquirer.js itself (#2247, fixes #2244).

• @inquirer/checkbox@^5.2.4

• @inquirer/confirm@^6.3.1
