Error during startproject [ ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'termios' ]

[syfqpie]

Hi all.

So I'm trying to generate a project by using
fastapi startproject core --interactive

But this error below pops out of my terminal
Traceback (most recent call last):

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'termios'

And I'm running this on Windows 10 machine. I've read somewhere that termios is only unix and not windows. Is this true?

[Kludex]

You're right. It looks like bullet doesn't have support for Windows.

@ycd Should we make bullet optional and not use it interactively on Windows?

[ycd]

sure, maybe we can stop depending on it and find another cross-platform library someday.

[syfqpie]

So for the time being, this package cannot be used on Windows right?

[frostming]

There is questionary that is cross-platform, but it depends on prompt-toolkit and will bring a lot of sub-dependencies.

[Kludex]

I'm going to check that today. Thanks @frostming :)

+1 for Windows support if its doable. Would like to check this out in the future. Thanks!

Support for Windows will be available on manage-fastapi 1.1.0 🎉
