FR: interactive build #454

Closed nahuelhds closed 8 years ago

nahuelhds commented 8 years ago

This is feature request.

It would be nice to be able to interact with the build process. I have some builds that needs user input and I cannot use those in my case.

Just that. The package is excellent, of course.

noseglid commented 8 years ago

It's been up for discussion before and decided against. Build is written to alleviate development by quickly "building" your code. Sure, this can be exploited to "running" the code as well. But as for interaction, I've decided it's outside the scope of this package.

Try using one of the terminal packages for that.

Thanks for the praise 🙏

Such a pitty. I'd be nice. If I PR that feature would you consider it? Just to know if it worth the try. Regards

Not in the current state, no.

I think the way forward here is to create a build view once there is an API for it (similar to how build providers work). I'm thinking the streams (stdin, stderr and stdout) will all be available to views, giving you the opportunity to do what you are describing

Good to know! Thx
