Input: Textarea

OliveTin supports multi-line text inputs, which can be useful for longer messages or scripts. You should set your argument type to raw_string_multiline to use these.

As the name implies, textareas are raw, and are NOT validated by any regex. For that reason they cannot be used with shell: — use exec: so the value is a separate argv element.

config.yaml
actions:
  - title: Save text to file
    exec:
      - /bin/sh
      - -c
      - echo "$CONTENT" > file
    arguments:
      - type: raw_string_multiline
        name: content

In that exec: example, $CONTENT comes from the process environment (OliveTin exports each argument as an uppercase env var), not from shell-string interpolation of the argument into shell:.

This renders like this;
