## API Reference

`pymsgprompt.prompt.ask` function takes two positional arguments `on_success` and `on_error`, and they expect two callback functions, which will be called after validating the answer. The default value of them are `pymsgprompt.handler.default_on_success` and `pymsgprompt.handler.default_on_error` respectively.

The callback function for `on_success` takes three arguments, which are `question`, `actual_answer` and `original_answer`. The `ask` function returns the same value, actually returned by the callback function. The default function returns the `original_answer`.

The callback function for `on_error` takes four arguments, which are `question`, `choices`, `default`, and `error`. This value must return either `True`, means the question should be reasked, or `False`, means no need to ask the question again. The default function returns the `False`.

A good documentation, specially for the developers, will be provided later.
