InputHandler

A small library for handling user input in console apps

All methods are contained in a static class Input within the InputHandler namespace, and include XML documentation.

The UnitTests project contains unit tests for every method. <br><br><br><br><br> How to decide which method to use:

Want the user to pick from a set of options?

Want the user to input yes/no? ⇒ GetYN (includes overload to specify your own options for yes/no)

Want the user to input specifically y/n? ⇒ GetYNStrict

Want the user to choose from a collection of options? ⇒ GetOption (includes generic overload if you want to convert it off of string after, and one if you want them to choose from string keys in a Dictionary, and another if you want to choose from names in an Enum)

Want the user to enter one input...

that doesn't error? ⇒ Get

that passes a check? ⇒ GetCheck

that passes a check without throwing an exception? ⇒ GetCheck<T>

and convert it into a bool? ⇒ GetBool

Want the user to enter a block of text ending in...

the first line of whitespace? ⇒ GetUntilWhiteSpace

the first null or empty line? ⇒ GetUntilEmpty

the first line that passes a specified check? ⇒ GetUntil

Want the user to enter a series of inputs ending in...

a line of whitespace? ListUntilWhiteSpace, YieldUntilWhiteSpace

a null or empty line? ListUntilEmpty, YieldUntilEmpty

a line that passes a specified check? ListUntil, YieldUntil
