Hacking on tui-prompts

[2910000]

Hello,

I'm working on a personal project with ratatui that I would need to write a lot of TUI-based prompts for, and tui-prompts looks like a good fit!

The project is a TUI client to do CRUD on notifications for a notification server (something like gotify). So far I've made some tab-based navigation in ratatui:

I just borrowed code for the prompts from the text example, and I'm now ready to start prodding the tui-prompts code.

Looking at the README, I think I would need to implement the Number, Confirm, Toggle, Select, Multi-select and Date (DateTime) types, as well as validation, default initial values, and probably something relating to theme/styling and scrolling as well.

I would be willing to try implementing these, but as this would be a fair amount of code, I thought I should reach out first to confirm if any work is being done on this and if you have any views/advice about how any of this should be done. I could also create issues for individual parts to discuss there. If order isn't an issue I'd like to do the Number and Date/DateTime parts first.

Also your examples were a really good starting point, so thanks for that!

Go for it! I'm not currently working on anything there and would value someone adding these.
Don't stress too much about raising issues unless there's real things to discuss.
Also, don't worry about backwards compatibility on this. Normally I would, but I think evolving towards the right API is more important.

OK! I've made a start on the DateTime type and I'll submit a PR in the near future.
