Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
This issue exists in the latest npm version
- I am using the latest npm
Current Behavior
Since version 10.7, when the "spinner" was introduced (I dislike it for various reasons, ugly flickering a.s.o., but wont discuss it here further since it's not related), the password prompt of npm login
is misleading.
Instead of waiting behind "Password:" it shows the spinner, indicating some "progress" that does not happen. Instead it's actually waiting for the password which has to be typed or inserted while according to the spinner npm seems busy.
It appears as if the password prompt is skipped.
Expected Behavior
Clearly indicate that npm is waiting for the password to be entered.
Steps To Reproduce
Simply execute npm login
, type some username. Enjoy :-/
Environment
- npm: 10.8.1
- Node.js: 20.14.0
