BUG: When I add validation to a prompt schema, the name is outputted instead of the description when prompting.

[trusktr]

e.g. If I do this:

var promptProperties = [                                                                                                                                   
     {
         description: "Enter your username",
         name: 'username',
         validator: /^[a-zAZ0-9\._-]+$/,
         warning: 'Username must be only letters and/or numbers'
     },
     {
         description: "Enter your password",
         name: 'password',
         hidden: true
     },  
     {
         description: "Enter the message subject",
         name: 'subject'
     },  
     {
         description: "Enter the email message",
         name: 'message'
     }
];

then the first prompt shows prompt: username: but if I do

var promptProperties = [                                                                                                                                   
     {
         description: "Enter your username",
         name: 'username',
     },
     {
         description: "Enter your password",
         name: 'password',
         hidden: true
     },  
     {
         description: "Enter the message subject",
         name: 'subject'
     },  
     {
         description: "Enter the email message",
         name: 'message'
     }   
];

then the first prompt shows prompt: Enter your username: as expected.

exactly same problem here, adding either warning or validator option prevents description from displaying

There is some weird stuff going on in the promtp's convert() functions, probably something to do with older properties format and trying to convert that automatically to the new format, losing information in the process.

Try renaming "validator" to "pattern", "warning" to "message" and "empty" to "required" (plus change the value), that worked for me.
