rohanchandra / javascript-terminal Goto Github PK

I am using redux-saga and integrating that with the related project react stateless terminal component.
When the stateless component hits enter / submit, it executes the command in the emulator.
https://github.com/rohanchandra/react-terminal-component/blob/29ea72b33fbcd72ab72c37068eb45e1a1cfef33f/src/ReactTerminalStateless.js#L45-L46

This is okay- I have the commands respond blank and then my asynchronous redux-saga appends its output before saving the state.

However, my use case requires case insensitivity. The emulator command mappings and execution seem to be case-sensitive. So when I use a command where the case does not match, it outputs the error message (before my appended output). "Command not found"

Maybe a flag or argument should be created for case insensitive execution? I suppose it could be done by defaulting to lower case version or upper case version of whatever is passed. Then, documenting which case to use to have case insensitivity.

I need to prompt the user "are you sure you want to do this?" and allow them to enter Y or N to continue executing the command.

Any ideas on how I could achieve this using javascript-terminal?

When you have an actual terminal clicking anywhere within it will have it ready to type into.

In your terminal simulator demo, you have to click where you are typing. Kind of annoying for someone that uses a terminal a lot.

Whats the best way to run a series of commands a la a shell script?

Would be nice to be able to specify a default action if a command is not found.

Hi,

Explicit title, the idea would be to add typescript declaration.

How can I override the default fall through command callback function? I would like the ability to override the error message specifically.

I believe it was introduced here: 89f9326

Thanks!

Is there a way to customize the behavior when an unknown command is passed to the terminal? I'd like to simply forward the input from the terminal to another service and have the output from that service displayed in the terminal.

I have a usecase where I want a command to open up a websocket and whatever data comes in on that websocket I would like to display on the terminal output.

Now the problem I have is currently all commands have to look like this:

  return {
    output: OutputFactory.makeTextOutput(input)
  };
},
'optDef': {}

}

They all have to "return" a single TextOutput which doesn't allow me to stream my data onto the console output.

Any ideas on how I can do this?

Would it be possible to implement piping in this? ">" or ">>".
