Ionic-framework: Support for textarea in alert

[SebastianGiro]

Short description of the problem:

https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/multi-line-textarea-definition-ionic2-in-alert/46298

The Alert.create() doesn't support multine inputs ( textarea )

What behavior are you expecting?

Create an alert and add something like:

alert.addInput({
      type: 'textarea',
      name: 'about',
      placeholder: 'Optional message'
    });

Hello all! While this is an awesome feature request it is not something that we plan on doing anytime soon. Because of this I am going to move this to our internal feature tracking repo for now as it is just "collecting dust" here. Once we decide to implement this I will move it back. Thanks everyone for using Ionic!

This link seems to be dead.
What is the status on this issue?

[SebastianGiro]

If I have time this week I'll check this issue.
If it's not yet resolved, I will push a PR with the new feature.

[chris-munn]

Any update?

I would also appreciate this feature.

Unfortunately, the ionic-feature-requests repo doesn't exist anymore.
Is this still tracked anywhere?

@jgw96 Can we reopen this issue? ionic-feature-requests don't exist anymore.
I can do a pull request by the end of this week.

Have you done the PR? @SebastianGiro

[SebastianGiro]

@Sampath-Lokuge Nope, I should create a new Issue because this is going nowhere.
But I just wanted to do it here. Also I need to recheck my code, because my fix is really old and I don't want to screw the component.

For now we've had to use a modal styled like a Dialog and then use the onDidDismiss() callback to return the data.

Hello all! Because this is not something that is on our roadmap, there are workarounds for it (such as using a modal or some other alternative UI) and because this issue has been closed I am going to lock this issue. Thanks for using Ionic!
