cnsl

cnsl is a crate for writing to the standard output, standard error, and reading from standard input.
This crate is lightly coded, and also requires no external dependencies.

Usage

readln macro

// without a prompt

use cnsl::readln;

fn main() {
    println!("What is your name?");
    let name = readln!();
    println!("Hello, {}!", name);
}

// with a prompt

use cnsl::readln;

fn main() {
    let name = readln!("Enter your name: ");
    println!("Hello, {}!", name);
}

// with a formatted prompt
// note: defaults are not actually supported, this is just a demonstration

use cnsl::readln;

const DEFAULT_AGE: u8 = 18;

fn main() {
    let age_input = readln!("Enter your age (default {}): ", DEFAULT_AGE);
    
    let age = if age_input.is_empty() {
        DEFAULT_AGE
    } else {
        age_input.parse::<u8>().expect("invalid input for age")
    };
}
