1 | ## getpass
|
---|
2 |
|
---|
3 | Get a password from the terminal. Sounds simple? Sounds like the `readline`
|
---|
4 | module should be able to do it? NOPE.
|

5 |
|

6 | ## Install and use it
|
---|
7 |
|
---|
8 | ```bash
|
---|
9 | npm install --save getpass
|
---|
10 | ```
|
---|
11 |
|
---|
12 | ```javascript
|
---|
13 | const mod_getpass = require('getpass');
|

16 | ## API

17 |
|
---|
18 | ### `mod_getpass.getPass([options, ]callback)`
|
---|
19 |
|
---|
20 | Gets a password from the terminal. If available, this uses `/dev/tty` to avoid
|
---|
21 | interfering with any data being piped in or out of stdio.
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | This function prints a prompt (by default `Password:`) and then accepts input
|
---|
24 | without echoing.
|
---|
25 |
|
---|
26 | Parameters:
|
---|
27 |
|
---|
28 | * `options`, an Object, with properties:
|
---|
29 | * `prompt`, an optional String
|
---|
30 | * `callback`, a `Func(error, password)`, with arguments:
|
---|
31 | * `error`, either `null` (no error) or an `Error` instance
|
---|
32 | * `password`, a String
|
