--[[ This is a module designed to interface with mpv-user-input https://github.com/CogentRedTester/mpv-user-input Loading this script as a module will return a table with two functions to format requests to get and cancel user-input requests. See the README for details. Alternatively, developers can just paste these functions directly into their script, however this is not recommended as there is no guarantee that the formatting of these requests will remain the same for future versions of user-input. ]] local mp = require 'mp' local mod = {} local name = mp.get_script_name() local counter = 1 -- sends a request to ask the user for input using formatted options provided -- creates a script message to recieve the response and call fn function mod.get_user_input(fn, options) options = options or {} local response_string = name.."/__user_input_request/"..counter counter = counter + 1 -- create a callback for user-input to respond to mp.register_script_message(response_string, function(input, err) mp.unregister_script_message(response_string) fn(err == "" and input or nil, err) end) -- send the input command mp.commandv("script-message-to", "user_input", "request-user-input", response_string, name .. '/' .. (options.id or ""), -- id code for the request options.request_text or options.text or (name.." is requesting user input:"), options.default_input or "", options.queueable and "1" or "", options.replace and "1" or "" ) end -- sends a request to cancel all input requests with the given id function mod.cancel_user_input(id) id = name .. '/' .. (id or "") mp.commandv("script-message-to", "user_input", "cancel-user-input", id) end return mod
