Arguments

default_value: A default value for the input field
multiline: If set to true, the input field will be a multiline textarea
prompt_text: Text placed above the input field
throw_on_cancel: Throws an error if the prompt is canceled, instead of returning a null value

`tp.system.suggester(text_items: string[] ⎮ ((item: T) => string), items: T[], throw_on_cancel: boolean = false, placeholder: string = "", limit?: number = undefined)`

Spawns a suggester prompt and returns the user's chosen item.

Arguments

items: Array containing the values of each item in the correct order.
limit: Limit the number of items rendered at once (useful to improve performance when displaying large lists)
placeholder: Placeholder string of the prompt
text_items: Array of strings representing the text that will be displayed for each item in the suggester prompt. This can also be a function that maps an item to its text representation.
throw_on_cancel: Throws an error if the prompt is canceled, instead of returning a null value

Examples

Clipboard content: <% tp.system.clipboard() %>

Entered value: <% tp.system.prompt("Please enter a value") %>
