jcs:get-secret() Function

Syntax

var $user-input = jcs:get-secret(string);

Description

Invoke a CLI prompt and wait for user input. Unlike the jcs:get-input() function, the input is not echoed back to the user, which makes the function useful for obtaining passwords. The user input is defined as a string for subsequent use. This function cannot be used with event scripts.

Parameters

• string—CLI prompt text.

Return Value

• $user-input—Text typed by the user and stored as a string.

var $password = jcs:get-secret("Enter password: ");
