Is it possible to make input required? #221

That's not currently possible. It's easy enough to check the input manually and throw an error if it's not valid.

Since this is simple to do, it’d make it all the more convenient for meow to support this. It could be an option (like isRequired for flags):

const cli = meow({
  // …
  inputIsRequired: true,
});

I think a simple boolean would be enough, but a function could be accepted like IsRequired for completeness.

We may want more options for the input in the future, so I would go with {input: {isRequired: true}}.
