User Inputs

Introduction

One of the most important aspects to consider when discussing Schematics is User Inputs. There are two distinct approaches:

1. Pre-Execution Inputs: Requesting inputs before initiating the factory function, prompting the user with questions in the terminal.
2. In-Execution Inputs: Asking for inputs during the execution of the factory function, again through terminal prompts.

Note

In both scenarios, it is possible to bypass the prompts in the terminal by pre-supplying the input values. If you decide to combine both methods, you must define all the properties in schema.json. However, only the properties that might be prompted in the terminal need to include the x-prompt attribute.
