The pause functions force Python to wait until a user resumes.
This can be used to show valuable information before and/or after the pause.
This allows values to be displayed while paused
import inputapi as inp
inp.otherFunc.pause.showValue()| Parameter | data type | default | purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| *values | Any | No default | The values to be displayed on pause |
| clearOnLoad | boolean | False |
Clears terminal before pausing |
| clearWhenDone | boolean | False |
Clears terminal when resuming |
This just pauses, it does not take values.
import inputapi as inp
# Method 1
inp.pause()
# Method 2
inp.otherFunc.pause.standard()| Parameter | data type | default | purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| clearOnLoad | boolean | False |
Clears terminal before pausing |
| clearWhenDone | boolean | False |
Clears terminal when resuming |
Clearing the screen works because of os.system() being able to call the clear and cls commands.
The clear command works for MacOS and GNU/Linux but cls only works for Windows.
Will clear the terminal regardless on operating system by figuring out what OS is currently running.
import inputapt as inp
# Method 1
inp.clearScreen()
# Method 2
inp.otherFunc.clearScreen.auto()This allows you to pick what operating system command to be used. This doesn't provide much use in the wild.
import inputapi as inp
inp.otherFunc.clearScreen.manual()| Parameter | data type | default | Valid Values | purpose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OS | string | required |
windows, macos, or linux (Case insensitive) |
What OS command you want to be used |
