Prompt widget

The Magento prompt widget implements a modal pop-up window with an input field, and a cancel and a confirmation button.

It extends the Magento modal widget.

The prompt widget source is <Magento_Ui_module_dir>/view/base/web/js/modal/prompt.js.

The widget can be used for implementing prompt windows for both, admin and storefront. The design patterns for the modal pop-up windows in the admin are described in the Magento Admin Pattern Library, the Slide-out Panels, Modal Windows, and Overlays topic.

Initialize the prompt widget

The prompt widget can be initialized with or without binding to a certain element.

Example 1: initialization on an element

    title: 'Prompt title',
    actions: {

        cancel: function(){}, //callback on 'Cancel' button click
        always: function(){}
    }
});

    prompt({
        title: 'Some title',
        content: 'Some content',
        actions: {
            confirm: function(){},
            cancel: function(){},
            always: function(){}
        }
    });

});
