vim.ui.input({opts}, {on_confirm}) *vim.ui.input()*
Prompts the user for input, allowing arbitrary (potentially asynchronous)
work until `on_confirm`.
Example: >lua
vim.ui.input({ prompt = 'Enter value for shiftwidth: ' }, function(input)
vim.o.shiftwidth = tonumber(input)
end)
<
Parameters: ~

• completion (string|nil) Specifies type of completion
supported for input. Supported types are the same that
can be supplied to a user-defined command using the

• highlight (function) Function that will be used for
highlighting user inputs.
• {on_confirm} (`function`) ((input|nil) -> ()) Called once the user
