## Options

| Property | Type                    | Required | Description                                                                                                                                 |
| -------- | ----------------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| message  | `string`                | yes      | The question to ask                                                                                                                         |
| choices  | `Choice[]`              | yes      | List of the available choices.                                                                                                              |
| default  | `string`                | no       | Defines in front of which item the cursor will initially appear. When omitted, the cursor will appear on the first selectable item.         |
| pageSize | `number`                | no       | By default, lists of choice longer than 7 will be paginated. Use this option to control how many choices will appear on the screen at once. |
| loop     | `boolean`               | no       | Defaults to `true`. When set to `false`, the cursor will be constrained to the top and bottom of the choice list without looping.           |
| theme    | [See Theming](#Theming) | no       | Customize look of the prompt.                                                                                                               |

`Separator` objects can be used in the `choices` array to render non-selectable lines in the choice list. By default it'll render a line, but you can provide the text as argument (`new Separator('-- Dependencies --')`). This option is often used to add labels to groups within long list of options.

### `Choice` object

The `Choice` object is typed as

```ts
type Choice<Value> = {
  value: Value;
  name?: string;
  description?: string;
  short?: string;
  disabled?: boolean | string;
};
```

Here's each property:

- `value`: The value is what will be returned by `await select()`.
- `name`: This is the string displayed in the choice list.
- `description`: Option for a longer description string that'll appear under the list when the cursor highlight a given choice.
- `short`: Once the prompt is done (press enter), we'll use `short` if defined to render next to the question. By default we'll use `name`.
- `disabled`: Disallow the option from being selected. If `disabled` is a string, it'll be used as a help tip explaining why the choice isn't available.

`choices` can also be an array of string, in which case the string will be used both as the `value` and the `name`.

## Theming

You can theme a prompt by passing a `theme` object option. The theme object only need to includes the keys you wish to modify, we'll fallback on the defaults for the rest.

```ts
type Theme = {
  prefix: string | { idle: string; done: string };
  spinner: {
    interval: number;
    frames: string[];
  };
  style: {
    answer: (text: string) => string;
    message: (text: string, status: 'idle' | 'done' | 'loading') => string;
    error: (text: string) => string;
    help: (text: string) => string;
    highlight: (text: string) => string;
    description: (text: string) => string;
    disabled: (text: string) => string;
    keysHelpTip: (keys: [key: string, action: string][]) => string | undefined;
  };
  icon: {
    cursor: string;
  };
  indexMode: 'hidden' | 'number';
};
```

### `theme.style.keysHelpTip`

This function allows you to customize the keyboard shortcuts help tip displayed below the prompt. It receives an array of key-action pairs and should return a formatted string. You can also hook here to localize the labels to different languages.

It can also returns `undefined` to hide the help tip entirely. This is the replacement for the deprecated theme option `helpMode: 'never'`.

```js
theme: {
  style: {
    keysHelpTip: (keys) => {
      // Return undefined to hide the help tip completely.
      return undefined;

      // Or customize the formatting. Or localize the labels.
      return keys.map(([key, action]) => `${key}: ${action}`).join(' | ');
    };
  }
}
```

### `theme.indexMode`

Controls how indices are displayed before each choice:

- `hidden` (default): No indices are shown
- `number`: Display a number before each choice (e.g. "1. Option A")
