Input

The Input module opens a NUI text input window. It supports both an asynchronous (callback) and a synchronous (return value) usage. When called with a callback the result is delivered through it; when called without one the call blocks and returns the entered value.

The input is automatically normalized: an empty string is returned as nil, and a value that looks like a number is converted to a number.

MSK.Input.Open

Opens an Input Window.

Parameters
header - string - Header text
placeholder - string - Placeholder text
field - boolean - false/omitted = small input, true = big input
cb - function - (optional) Callback receiving the input

Returns
input - string/number/nil - The entered value (only when called synchronously)

Asynchronous

-- Small Input Window
MSK.Input.Open('This is a Header', 'This is a Placeholder', function(input)
    if not input then return end
    print(input)
end)

-- Big Input Window
MSK.Input.Open('This is a Header', 'This is a Placeholder', true, function(input)
    if not input then return end
    print(input)
end)

-- As an Export:
exports.msk_core:Input(header, placeholder, field, function(input)
    if not input then return end
    print(input)
end)

Synchronous

-- Small Input Window
local input = MSK.Input.Open('This is a Header', 'This is a Placeholder')
print(input)

-- Big Input Window
local input = MSK.Input.Open('This is a Header', 'This is a Placeholder', true)
print(input)

-- As an Export:
local input = exports.msk_core:Input(header, placeholder, field)

MSK.Input.Close

Closes the current Input Window.

MSK.Input.Close()

-- As an Export:
exports.msk_core:CloseInput()

MSK.Input.Active

Checks if the Input Window is currently open.

Returns
isActive - boolean - Whether the Input Window is active

local isActive = MSK.Input.Active()

-- As an Export:
local isActive = exports.msk_core:InputActive()
