npm install osx-dialogInstead of dynamically writing AppleScript and then piping it into the binary, I
decided to write a native module that uses CoreFoundation to display a dialog.
Please open an issue if you have any feature requests or encounter any bugs!
``JavaScript
var dialog = require('osx-dialog')
dialog({
title: 'A Title',
msg: 'some message',
timeout: 10,
checkboxes: [
'first box',
'second box'
]
}, function (error, button, checkboxes) {
// do stuff with the result.
})
`
###dialog(options, [callback])
* options (required) has the following keys
* title (required) is the bolded portion of the dialog
* message (required) is the text area portion of the dialog
* timeout (optional) is the duration in seconds the dialog should be displayed before it is dismissed
* checkboxes (optional) is an array of strings that will be displayed as checkboxes
* callback (optional) has the signature callback(error, button, checkboxes)error
* will be null or a string with the error messagebutton
* will be a boolean noting if it was dismissed by hitting the button (true) or dismissed by hitting escape (false)checkboxes
* will be an array of booleans with the status of the checkboxes in the order that was given to dialog`
