[question] How --handle-input can be used from CLI?

I struggle with setting this up, I have such script:

"dev": "concurrently --handle-input \"npm run test -- --watch\" \"npm run build -- -w\" --kill-others-on-fail"

and I want to forward every input to the test script - so I thought it would be as easy to type something and that it would work.

After looking into the source code I see that InputHandler actually listens to data event on the inputStream, but it’s never triggered.

I actually went different route slightly (havent used concurrently for this). It wasnt working for me because my test script (jest) was running with raw mode stdin and concurrently didnt support that.

Actually with --raw option it works as expected 😍👍

My final script:

"test:unit": "concurrently --raw --kill-others --handle-input --names test,build \"vitest --environment jsdom\" \"vite build --watch\"",

Thank you @paescuj 🙏

You’re welcome! Glad I could help 😃
