This is a multiselect, the user can choose one, none or many of the items. Example: >>> import questionary >>> questionary.checkbox( ... 'Select toppings', ... choices=[ ... "Cheese", ... "Tomato", ... "Pineapple", ... ]).ask() ? Select toppings done (2 selections) ['Cheese', 'Pineapple'] .. image:: ../images/checkbox.gif This is just a really basic example, the prompt can be customised using the parameters. Args: message: Question text choices: Items shown in the selection, this can contain :class:`Choice` or or :class:`Separator` objects or simple items as strings. Passing :class:`Choice` objects, allows you to configure the item more (e.g. preselecting it or disabling it). default: Default return value (single value). If you want to preselect multiple items, use ``Choice("foo", checked=True)`` instead. validate: Require the entered value to pass a validation. The value can not be submitted until the validator accepts it (e.g. to check minimum password length). This should be a function accepting the input and returning a boolean. Alternatively, the return value may be a string (indicating failure), which contains the error message to be displayed. qmark: Question prefix displayed in front of the question. By default this is a ``?``. pointer: Pointer symbol in front of the currently highlighted element. By default this is a ``»``. Use ``None`` to disable it. style: A custom color and style for the question parts. You can configure colors as well as font types for different elements. initial_choice: A value corresponding to a selectable item in the choices, to initially set the pointer position to. use_arrow_keys: Allow the user to select items from the list using arrow keys. use_jk_keys: Allow the user to select items from the list using `j` (down) and `k` (up) keys. use_emacs_keys: Allow the user to select items from the list using `Ctrl+N` (down) and `Ctrl+P` (up) keys. use_search_filter: Flag to enable search filtering. Typing some string will filter the choices to keep only the ones that contain the search string. Note that activating this option disables "vi-like" navigation as "j" and "k" can be part of a prefix and therefore cannot be used for navigation instruction: A message describing how to navigate the menu. show_description: Display description of current selection if available. Returns: :class:`Question`: Question instance, ready to be prompted (using ``.ask()``).
