Is the a way to capture user input in middle of executing @ShellMethod. Basically stoping executing of the method to ask for the user input and carrying on after capturing it.
Use Spring Shell UI Components, now that we're in the future.
"Starting from 2.1.x there is a new component model which provides easier way to create higher level user interaction for usual use cases like asking input in a various forms. These usually are just plain text input or choosing something from a list."
@ShellComponent
public class ComponentCommands extends AbstractShellComponent {
@ShellMethod(key = "component string", value = "String input", group = "Components")
public String stringInput(boolean mask) {
StringInput component = new StringInput(getTerminal(), "Enter value", "myvalue");
component.setResourceLoader(getResourceLoader());
component.setTemplateExecutor(getTemplateExecutor());
if (mask) {
component.setMaskCharater('*');
}
StringInputContext context = component.run(StringInputContext.empty());
return "Got value " + context.getResultValue();
}
}
