Unable to pick choice via `firebase init`

[cedvdb]

when

    run(
      'firebase init',
      runInShell: true,
    );

The cli does not display the menus, making it impossible to go forward. To reproduce this you need the firebase-cli installed and just run the above code.

maybe related to https://github.com/noojee/dcli/issues/187

Why did you using runInShell?

Try start https://pub.dev/documentation/dcli/latest/dcli/start.html

with the terminal = true option.

[cedvdb]

runInShell was used because without it the firebase command was said to not be in the path. I figured that maybe there was a restriction on using path executables without runInShell, ence why I used it. It correctly launch firebase with it but I'm not sure my reasoning is correct.

Here is are pictures of the different outputs I get depending if I run the command from git bash or from dcli:

Here with dcli run (or start with terminal true):

As you can see, there is no "Are you ready to proceed ?" on the one ran via dcli. It seems like that read line by firebase is messing up the piping.

FYI why it works with runInShell is maybe bug on windows https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/38974

and it works when using this:

  return Process.start(
    'firebase',
    ['init'],
    workingDirectory: 'firebase',
    runInShell: true,
    mode: ProcessStartMode.inheritStdio,
  );

Instead you should call the dcli which function to find the path and use the full path to run firebase.

Running firebase is not the issue this issue is about. I provided pictures to be more precise in a comment above of the different outputs. This issue is about incorrect stdout of the command I'm running.

Anyway, since it works fine with : mode: ProcessStartMode.inheritStdio, I'll stick to that.

[bsutton]

that is what the terminal option does in the start command.
