NAME

    Tickit::Terminal::Prompt - a scrolling terminal command prompt

SYNOPSIS

      my $ui = Tickit::Terminal::Prompt->new(
          prompt => 'demo> ',
          on_enter => sub ($ui, $line) { $ui->say("Input: $line") },
      );
      $ui->run;

DESCRIPTION

    Displays output in a scroller and a command entry on the next line. The
    callback receives the console object and the entered text without its
    prompt. The application decides how to interpret that text. The
    constructor owns an IO::Async loop and a Tickit::Async instance; call
    run to start the UI.

METHODS

 new

    Requires on_enter => sub ($ui, $line) { ... }. The optional prompt
    defaults to >. Prompts must fit on one line.

 print, say

    Append text to the scroller. say adds a newline. Calls to print without
    a newline continue the current output line.

 set_prompt

    Replace the prompt while retaining any command currently being edited.

 run, stop

    Start or stop the event loop. stop scrolls to the bottom, lets the
    final redraw complete, and places the terminal cursor on the bottom row
    before stopping. After Tickit restores the terminal, run flushes and
    prints a newline so the shell prompt appears on the next line. Ctrl-C
    calls stop.
