lib.rs
:
This library makes it easy to read passwords in a console application on all platforms, Unix, Windows, WASM, etc.
Here's how you can read a password:
let password = rpassword::read_password().unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", password);
You can also prompt for a password:
let password = rpassword::prompt_password("Your password: ").unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", password);
Finally, in unit tests, you might want to pass a Cursor
, which implements BufRead
. In that
case, you can use read_password_from_bufread
and prompt_password_from_bufread
:
use std::io::Cursor;
let mut mock_input = Cursor::new("my-password\n".as_bytes().to_owned());
let password = rpassword::read_password_from_bufread(&mut mock_input).unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", password);
let mut mock_input = Cursor::new("my-password\n".as_bytes().to_owned());
let mut mock_output = Cursor::new(Vec::new());
let password = rpassword::prompt_password_from_bufread(&mut mock_input, &mut mock_output, "Your password: ").unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", password);
