Bun support

[olafur-palsson]

Is your feature request related to a problem?

This is something odd I noticed. It looks like in general prompts works except when you run two question sequentially.

// index.js
const prompts = require('prompts')
// Works just fine
const response1 = await prompts({
  type: 'text',
  name: 'msg',
  message: 'Question'
})

// Not possible to use inputs anymore
const response2 = await prompts({
  type: 'text',
  name: 'msg',
  message: 'Question'
})

Describe the solution you'd like

It works when running with bun like when running with node.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using node lol.

I took a look around and a lot of interactive cli stuff is having issues. https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/4787 https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/5267 https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/5240 https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/3255 https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/2333

But here's one that says it's fixed in the upcoming bun release which was 1.0 at the time (@clack/prompts on npm) but I've been running it on Bun 1.0 and still have the same bug. https://github.com/natemoo-re/clack/issues/159

@olafur-palsson Hi, for me Bun with @clack/prompts is no problem, but with terkelg/prompts has the issue CMIIW.

In @clack/prompts to test is easy, just clone that repo, and run bun --bun run examples/basic/index.ts it run smooth :)

@sonyarianto They have issue with these. There's some weird behavior when closing the readline interface in Bun I think.

Try running this one:

import * as p from '@clack/prompts';

await p.text({
  message: 'Where should we create your project?',
  placeholder: './lol',
})

await p.text({
  message: 'Where should we create your project?',
  placeholder: './lol',
})

I didn't read @clack/prompts but I know that terkelg/prompts creates readline interfaces and closes them for each question. Maybe @clack/prompts keeps it open longer?

[sonyarianto]

Hmmm with Bun 1.0.2 above script also still not working properly.

[sonyarianto]

@olafur-palsson butttt if you modify the code like this, inside the async then it will work smoothly.

index.js

import * as p from '@clack/prompts';

async function main() {
  const response1 = await p.text({
    message: 'Where should we create your project?',
    placeholder: './lol',
  });

  const response2 = await p.text({
    message: 'Where should we create your project?',
    placeholder: './lol',
  });
}

await main();

bun --bun run index.js

This issue has already been addressed in the latest release of Bun, v1.0.18. You can find more details about the fix in the release notes: Bun v1.0.18 Release Notes.

Confirmed that this is no longer an issue with Bun v1.0.18, so this issue can probably be closed.

[davidgomes]

This can still happen on Bun, even after their v1.0.18 version.
