创建一个消息框

一个消息框中显示一个确认按钮继续任意的文本消息。
语法:
whiptail --title "<message box title>" --msgbox "<text to show>" <height> <width> 实例:

用户输入yes或no的对话框。
语法:
whiptail --title "<dialog box title>" --yesno "<text to show>" <height> <width> 实例:

if (whiptail --title "Test Yes/No Box" --yesno "Choose between Yes and No." 10 60) then  
    echo "You chose Yes. Exit status was $?."
else  
    echo "You chose No. Exit status was $?."
fi  


或者,你可以是“--yes-button” ,"--no-button"选项。

#!/bin/bash
if (whiptail --title "Test Yes/No Box" --yes-button "Skittles" --no-button "M&M's"  --yesno "Which do you like better?" 10 60) then

PET=$(whiptail --title "Test Free-form Input Box" --inputbox "What is your pet's name?" 10 60 Wigglebutt 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3)

exitstatus=$?  
if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then  
    echo "Your pet name is:" $PET
else  
    echo "You chose Cancel."
fi  

创建一个密码框

当用户需要输入敏感信息时密码框是有用的。
语法:
whiptail --title "<password box title>" --passwordbox "<text to show>" <height> <width>
实例:

if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then  
    echo "Your password is:" $PASSWORD

    echo "You chose Cancel."
fi

语法:
whiptail --title "<menu title>" --menu "<text to show>" <height> <width> <menu height> [ <tag> <item> ] . . .
实例:

#!/bin/bash
OPTION=$(whiptail --title "Test Menu Dialog" --menu "Choose your option" 15 60 4 \  
"1" "Grilled Spicy Sausage" \
"2" "Grilled Halloumi Cheese" \
"3" "Charcoaled Chicken Wings" \

if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then  
    echo "Your chosen option:" $OPTION
else  
    echo "You chose Cancel."
fi  

创建radiolist对话框

whiptail --title "<radiolist title>" --radiolist "<text to show>" <height> <width> <list height> [ <tag> <item> <status> ] . . .
实例:

#!/bin/bash
DISTROS=$(whiptail --title "Test Checklist Dialog" --radiolist \

"debian" "Venerable Debian" ON \
"ubuntu" "Popular Ubuntu" OFF \
"centos" "Stable CentOS" OFF \

exitstatus=$?  
if [ $exitstatus = 0 ]; then  
    echo "The chosen distro is:" $DISTROS

    echo "You chose Cancel."
fi  

创建一个表对话框

当你想让用户选择一个列表中选择多个选项的清单对话框是有用的,radiolist对话框,只允许选择一个。

#!/bin/bash
{
    for ((i = 0 ; i <= 100 ; i+=20)); do

    done
} | whiptail --gauge "Please wait while installing" 6 60 0
