Node.js readline.question still prompts question after readline.close #42450
Closed
Description
What is the problem this feature will solve?
When I close readline, readline.question still prompts the question, but the callback won't be called and the process hangs!
const readline = require('readline').createInterface({
input: process.stdin,
output: process.stdout
})
readline.question(`What's your name?`, name => {
console.log(`Hi ${name}!`)
readline.close()
readline.question(`How are you?`, how => {
console.log(`Good to know you are ${how}!`)
//readline.close() should close here
})
})What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?
If readline.close() I think it is better readline.question not prompt, so no hang either.
What alternatives have you considered?
