This page is deprecated, documentation moved to: https://inquirerpy.readthedocs.io/
An input prompt to ask user for some secret values such as password.
class SecretPrompt(InputPrompt):
def __init__(
self,
message: Union[str, Callable[[SessionResult], str]],
style: InquirerPyStyle = None,
default: Union[str, Callable[[SessionResult], str]] = "",
qmark: str = "?",
vi_mode: bool = False,
validate: Union[Validator, Callable[[str], bool]] = None,
invalid_message: str = "Invalid input",
transformer: Callable[[str], Any] = None,
filter: Callable[[str], Any] = None,

Classic Syntax (PyInquirer)
from InquirerPy import prompt
from InquirerPy.validator import PasswordValidator
original_password = "InquirerPy45@"
questions = [
{
"type": "password",
"message": "Old password:",
"transformer": lambda _: "[hidden]",
"validate": lambda text: text == original_password,
"invalid_message": "Wrong password",
},
{
"type": "password",
"message": "New password:",
"name": "new_password",
"validate": PasswordValidator(
length=8, cap=True, special=True, number=True
),
"transformer": lambda _: "[hidden]",
},
{"type": "confirm", "message": "Confirm?", "default": True},
]
result = prompt(questions)
Alternate Syntax
from InquirerPy import inquirer
from InquirerPy.validator import PasswordValidator
original_password = "InquirerPy45@"
old_password = inquirer.secret(
message="Old password:",
transformer=lambda _: "[hidden]",
validate=lambda text: text == original_password,
invalid_message="Wrong password",
).execute()
new_password = inquirer.secret(
message="New password:",
validate=PasswordValidator(length=8, cap=True, special=True, number=True),
transformer=lambda _: "[hidden]",
).execute()
confirm = inquirer.confirm(message="Confirm?", default=True).execute()
REQUIRED
The question message to display/ask the user.
When providing as a function, the current prompt session result will be provided as a parameter. If you are using the alternate syntax (i.e. inquirer
), put a dummy parameter (_
) in your function.
from InquirerPy import inquirer
def get_message(_) -> str:
message = "Name:"
# logic ...
return message
result = inquirer.secret(message=get_message)
An InquirerPyStyle
instance. Use get_style
to retrieve an instance, reference Style documentation for more information.
If you are suing classic syntax (i.e.
style
), there's no need to provide this value sinceprompt
already sets the style, unless you would like to apply different style for different question.
Enable vim
keybindings for the secret
prompt. Its exactly the same as if you enable vi_mode
in bash/readline. Checkout Keybindings documentation for more information.
If you are suing classic syntax (i.e.
prompt
), there's no need to provide this value sinceprompt
already sets sets this value, unless you would like to applyvi_mode
to specific questions.
Set the default value of the secret
prompt.
When providing as a function, the current prompt session result will be provided as a parameter. If you are using the alternate syntax (i.e. inquirer
), put a dummy parameter (_
) in your function.
The question mark symbol to display in front of the question.
Provide the validator for this question. Checkout Validator documentation for full details.
Configure the error message to display to the user when input does not meet compliance.
If the validate
parameter is a Validator
instance, then skip this parameter.
A callable to transform the result. This is visual effect only, meaning it doesn't affect the returned result, it only changes the result displayed in the prompt.
Note: filter
function won't affect the answer passed into transformer
, transformer
actually run before the filter
function.
result = inquirer.secret(message="Password:", default="InquirerPy") # UI -> ? Password: **********
result = inquirer.secret(
message="Password:",
default="InquirerPy",
transformer=lambda _: "[hidden]",
) # UI -> ? Password: [hidden]
A callable to filter the result. Different than the transformer
, this affects the actual
returned result but doesn't affect the visible prompt content.
result = inquirer.secret(message="Password:", default="InquirerPy") # result = "InquirerPy"
result = inquirer.secret(
message="Password:",
default="Kevin Zhuang",
filter=lambda result: result*2
) # result = "InquirerPyInquirerPy"
