### placeholder

Type: `string`

Text to display when `value` is empty.

Whether to show cursor and allow navigation inside text input with arrow keys.

### highlightPastedText

Replace all chars and mask the value. Useful for password inputs.

```jsx

//=> "*****"
```

### onChange

Type: `Function`

Function to call when value updates.

### onSubmit

Type: `Function`

Function to call when `Enter` is pressed, where first argument is a value of the input.

## Uncontrolled usage

This component also exposes an [uncontrolled](https://reactjs.org/docs/uncontrolled-components.html) version, which handles `value` changes for you. To receive the final input value, use `onSubmit` prop.
Initial value can be specified via `initialValue` prop, which is supported only in `UncontrolledTextInput` component.

```jsx
import React from 'react';
import {render, Box, Text} from 'ink';
import {UncontrolledTextInput} from 'ink-text-input';

const SearchQuery = () => {
const handleSubmit = query => {
// Do something with query
};

return (


Enter your query:



);
};

render();
```
