renovate · 2025-11-17T02:12:42Z

This PR contains the following updates:

Package	Change	Age	Confidence
inquirer (source)	`11.1.0` → `13.3.0`

Release Notes

SBoudrias/Inquirer.js (inquirer)

`v13.3.0`

Compare Source

Fix: Keypresses happening before a prompt is rendered are now ignored.
Fix (checkbox): Element who're both checked and disabled are now always included in the returned array.
Feat (select/checkbox): Cursor will now hover disabled options of the list; but they still cannot be interacted with. This prevents the cursor jumping ahead in ways that can be confusing.
Feat: various new theme options to make all prompts content localizable.

Finally, see our new @inquirer/i18n package!

chore: Switch wrap-ansi with fast-wrap-ansi

`v13.2.2`

Compare Source

Typescript disallow type: 'list' unless there's a plugin installed under that name. (list was replaced by select and marked as deprecated for a few released, v13.0.0 removed the alias.)

`v13.2.1`

Compare Source

Regression: previous answers weren't provided to the validate functions as the second arguments.

`v13.2.0`

Compare Source

feat(search): Add support for default.
feat(rawlist): Add support for description of choices. That information is displayed under the list when the choice is highlighted.
Bump dependencies

`v13.1.0`

Compare Source

Feat: rawlist now supports default option.
Fix: select now infer return type properly when passing a choices array of string literals.

`v13.0.2`

Compare Source

Fix Typescript not discovering types when moduleResolution is set to commonjs (you probably want to fix that in your project if it's still in your tsconfig)

`v13.0.1`

Compare Source

`v13.0.0`

Compare Source

Release Notes

🚨 Breaking Changes

This is a major release that modernizes the codebase for Node.js ≥ 20.

ESM Only - No More CommonJS Support

Impact: All packages are now ESM-only. CommonJS imports are no longer supported.

If you're on modern Node versions (≥ 20), this should be transparent and have no impact.

Node.js Version Requirement

Minimum Node.js version is now 20.x

Node.js versions below 20 are no longer supported. Please upgrade to Node.js 20 or later.

Node min versions: >=23.5.0 || ^22.13.0 || ^21.7.0 || ^20.12.0

Deprecated APIs Removed

The following deprecated APIs have been removed after being deprecated in previous releases:

`list` prompt alias removed (affects `inquirer` package only)

The list alias has been removed from the inquirer package. This only impacts users of the legacy inquirer package, not users of @inquirer/prompts or individual prompt packages.

// ❌ No longer available (inquirer package only)
import inquirer from 'inquirer';
const answer = await inquirer.prompt([
  { type: 'list', name: 'choice', message: 'Pick one:', choices: ['a', 'b'] }
]);

// ✅ Use 'select' instead
import inquirer from 'inquirer';
const answer = await inquirer.prompt([
  { type: 'select', name: 'choice', message: 'Pick one:', choices: ['a', 'b'] }
]);

`helpMode` theme property removed

// ❌ No longer available
const answer = await select({
  theme: { helpMode: 'never' }
});

// ✅ Use theme.style.keysHelpTip instead
const answer = await select({
  theme: {
    style: {
      keysHelpTip: () => undefined // or your custom styling function
    }
  }
});

This affects the following prompts:

@inquirer/checkbox
@inquirer/search
@inquirer/select

`instructions` config property removed

// ❌ No longer available
const answer = await checkbox({
  instructions: 'Custom instructions'
});

// ✅ Use theme.style.keysHelpTip instead
const answer = await checkbox({
  theme: {
    style: {
      keysHelpTip: (text) => 'Custom instructions'
    }
  }
});

This affects the following prompts:

@inquirer/checkbox
@inquirer/search
@inquirer/select

`cancel()` method removed

The cancel() method on prompt return custom Promise has been removed.

// ❌ No longer available
const answerPromise = input({ message: 'Name?' });
answerPromise.cancel();
const answer = await answerPromise;

// ✅ Use AbortSignal instead
const controller = new AbortController();
const answer = await input(
  { message: 'Name?' },
  { signal: controller.signal }
);
controller.abort();

Color Library Change: yoctocolors → Node.js `styleText`

Internal change: The project now uses Node.js built-in util.styleText() instead of the yoctocolors package for terminal colors. This makes Inquirer smaller and reduces risks of vulnerabilities coming from transitive dependencies.

`v12.11.1`

Compare Source

[Node 18 compat] Downgraded to mute-stream@2 to maintain Node 18 compatibility.
[Typescript] Allow passing a Partial<{ ... }> type as pre-filled answers.

`v12.11.0`

Compare Source

feat @inquirer/input: Now support simple RegExp validation with pattern/patternError.
fix @inquirer/editor: Fix typo s/waitForUseInput/waitForUserInput
Bump dependencies

`v12.10.0`

Compare Source

New design for the keys help tip. Themable/localizable with theme.style.keysHelpTip.
Re-introduce option to match up/down actions with vim or emacs keybindings. Enable with theme.keybindings

`v12.9.6`

Compare Source

Reduce number of transitive dependencies

`v12.9.5`

Compare Source

Fix #1834: (rawlist) Allows specifying numbers as explicit keys of option within the list.

`v12.9.4`

Compare Source

fix: Remove "easter-egg" vim/emacs bindings conflicting with the type-to-search feature.

`v12.9.3`

Compare Source

Fix Unix yes not properly being processed by the confirm prompt. (yes | node confirm-script.js)

`v12.9.2`

Compare Source

Make @types/node an optional peer dependency.

`v12.9.1`

Compare Source

Replace external-editor dependency with new @inquirer/external-editor. This remove the vulnerable tmp transitive dependency from the dependency tree.

`v12.9.0`

Compare Source

Search prompt: New instructions config to allow localizing the help tips.

`v12.8.2`

Compare Source

Fix #1786 select prompt with indexMode: number theme option didn't properly calculate the items indexes if separators where present in between choices.

`v12.8.1`

Compare Source

Fixes: a transitive dependency (run-aysnc) loaded devDependencies unexpectedly. This is now fixed upstream. Rel #1791

`v12.8.0`

Compare Source

Select prompt: When pressing a number key, we'll ignore separators in counting the index of the item to jump to.
Checkbox prompt: When pressing a number key, we'll ignore separators in counting the index of the item to select.

`v12.7.0`

Compare Source

-input prompt: New prefill option to control if the default value is editable inline or only after pressing tab.

`v12.6.3`

Compare Source

Fix #1743: pagination logic of the select, checkbox and search prompts was fully rewritten to handle edge cases around rendering multi-line choices and pointer positioning.

`v12.6.2`

Compare Source

Chore: dependencies bump

`v12.6.1`

Compare Source

Fix #1741: Issue with SIGINT in some scenarios leaving promises unsettled on exit.
Fix: Remove monorepo related dependencies from all artifacts published to npm. This removes non-standard version specifiers like workspace:* from the public npm packages.

`v12.6.0`

Compare Source

Feat(@inquirer/select): Added an instructions option allowing to customize the messages in the help tips.
Feat(@inquirer/rawlist): Arrow keys will now cycle through the option, just like the @inquirer/select prompt. Also added a loop option to control the list loop behaviour when reaching the boundaries.

`v12.5.2`

Compare Source

README: Add new sponsor
Chore: dependency updates

`v12.5.1`

Compare Source

`v12.5.0`

Compare Source

Feat (select): Introduce theme.indexMode to control displaying an index prefix in front of each choice. (defaults to hidden)
Fix (select): Improve search when number keys are pressed

`v12.4.3`

Compare Source

Fix an issue where inquirer would throw if Node is ran with the new --frozen-intrinsics flag.

`v12.4.2`

Compare Source

`v12.4.1`

Compare Source

Mark @types/node as an optional peer dependency across all packages.

`v12.4.0`

Compare Source

Added new shortcut config to the checkbox prompt. Allows to customize or disable shortcut keys for select all and invert selection.

`v12.3.3`

Compare Source

Replace 3rd party dependency strip-ansi in favour of Node built-in stripVTControlCharacters util.

`v12.3.2`

Compare Source

`v12.3.1`

Compare Source

`v12.3.0`

Compare Source

Checkbox prompt: re-added support for an array of default to be provided listing pre-checked checkboxes. This is a legacy interface brought back given this feature removal was an involuntary breaking change during the v12 release. The preferred interface is to provide the checked property to choices { value: 'bar', checked: true }.

`v12.2.0`

Compare Source

`v12.1.0`

Compare Source

`v12.0.1`

Compare Source

`v12.0.0`

Compare Source

@types/node is now only a peerDependencies. This reduces the install size of inquirer dramatically for folks not using Typescript. It's unlikely to break your builds if you used TS already, if it does run npm install --dev @types/node/yarn add --dev @types/node.
