Possibility to edit proposed run command

[ekkinox]

A cool feature would be to have the possibility to edit a proposed run command, when the user know it's not exactly matching expectations.

Something like changing the confirmation prompt from Confirm? [y/N] to Confirm? [y/e/N], where e would trigger edition

[mateothegreat]

What about returning it to stdout so it can be pipe-able to other commands?

[ekkinox]

I was more thinking refocus on the prompt with the command open for edition, with a "edit" icon (to make user understand he takes control when he would press e).

would keep UI coherence and minimize the work imo

wdyt ?

for piping, yai has a bit of support since 0.2.0, for ex:

cat script.go | yai -c generate unit tests

or

cat error.log | yai -c tell me how to fix this

In addition to editing the command, you might like also to consider that you might like to add more prompt information so that it provides an updated command with the additional information.

In effect Confirm? [y/e/p/N] where p gets you a prompt to add more detail.

when pressing p you mean you would be able to enter more details in natural language to refine the proposed command ? So maybe r for refine instead ? wdyt ?

Yep, that's the idea.

refine is good 👍

Here's an example of how I saw it being used:

🚀 > port forward port 5433 on my machine to localhost:5432 on the remote machine

   ssh -L 5433:localhost:5432 [email protected]                                                                                                                

forward the local port 5433 to the remote machine port 5432 over ssh

confirm execution? [y/e/r/N]

The first way to solve this is e and edit it yourself, or, as we are now discussing, with r and add:

🚀 > The user is greg, and the remote host is example.com

   ssh -L 5433:localhost:5432 [email protected]                                                                          

forward the local port 5433 to the remote machine port 5432 over ssh. The user is greg and the remote machine is example.com

confirm execution? [y/e/r/N]

looks very good / simple to use !

on it asap
