Can't create a choice prompt for non string lists?

[doronbehar]

EDIT:

Now I noticed that this happens for any choices list of non-strings.. Maybe this should be labeled as a feature request.. Anyway, here's the original bug report:

Describe the bug

Can't use a Python pure list, nor a Numpy array of dtype integer, nor a Numpy array of booleans, nor a list of pure Python booleans. Example traceback for pure Python integers:

Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'get'

Example

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys

from questionary import prompt

answers = prompt([{
    'name': 'integer',
    'type': 'select',
    'message': "Select favorite integer",
    'choices': list(range(10)),
}])

Steps to reproduce

Simply run the provided MWE. Change that choices key to [True, False] or to np.array(list(range(10))) to view other variants of the bug.

Expected behaviour

Same behavior as this gives:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys

from questionary import prompt

answers = prompt([{
    'name': 'integer',
    'type': 'select',
    'message': "Select favorite integer",
    'choices': list(map(str, range(10))),
}])
answers['integer'] = int(answers['integer'])
print(answers)
