Take user input with JavaScript in the console

问题:

I need to get user input when running a .js in a console with spidermonkey like this:

$ js myprogram.js

What's the JavaScript equivalent of Ruby's gets?

回答1:

As far as I know, there is a readline() function, but it is a specific function for spidermonkey, it isn't a part of javascript.

Example:

1)readline-test.js:

print("Type some text and press <ENTER>:\t");
var userInput = readline();
print("User input: " + userInput);

2)js readline-test.js

You can't really depend on the console being there. It's not something that is guaranteed, even while most browsers do have a javascript console. Beyond that I don't believe you can get values without calling a function with the console.
