Bind stdin from users' interactive

[atsushi-ishibashi]

For example, email verification code step or MFA step.
book design image. Wait for users' stdin input at stdin runner step.

desc: Exec test
steps:
  -
    stdin:
      comment: 'Get MFA code: '
      (optional)timeout:
  -
    req:
      /hoge/{{ steps[0].stdin.value }}

If exec can solve what I want, please let me know!

When we have the concensus, I'll contribute👍

Thank you for your request!

I have 3 questions

1. Is the feature you want to input values from outside the runbook?
2. For example, can't it be entered by an environment variable?
3. Is there a reason you would like to enter it in the middle of the steps run?
   • For example, would entering all the values at the beginning of a runbook run satisfy your requirement?

yes.

For example, can't it be entered by an environment variable?

yes.

Is there a reason you would like to enter it in the middle of the steps run?

yes.
Considering email verification or MFA senario so those aren't determined when I run book.

Email verification

1. Open signup page via cdp
2. Input email and password
3. Send email with verification code to real email address
4. Input verification code into runbook

MFA

1. Signin request via http
2. Got one time password via login email or got OTP via MFA application(like google authenticator)
3. Input the code into runbook

Thank you.

The MFA can be automated by emulating OTP (but only for go test code using Func).
Email Verification seems to be difficult indeed.

I'm wondering how to implement this.

[k1LoW]

How about implementing it with a built-in function?

[k1LoW]

How about an implementation like this?

[atsushi-ishibashi]

At first, I consider whether it can be realized with existing features like built-in func👌

[atsushi-ishibashi]

Thank you for your quick implementation. I'll check it later

[atsushi-ishibashi]

Looks good!
What I want seems to be realized with #297 . thanks

[atsushi-ishibashi]

works well. thanks!
