Disable STDIN echo for password input in a Dart console application

Bigtiger671

I want to disable stdin echo in my dart console application for password input. How can I do this?

There is no built-in way to do this in Dart, but you can use the RawKeyboard class from the dart:ui library to capture stdin input directly from the operating system. This will allow you to disable echo for password input.

There's no built-in way to do this in Dart, but you can achieve it by using the rawMode property of the stdin object:

import 'dart:io';

main() {
stdout.write('Enter password: ');
stdin.rawMode = true; // disable input echo
var password = stdin.readLineSync();
stdin.rawMode = false; // re-enable input echo
stdout.writeln('You entered: $password');
}
