`termui` is a cross-platform, easy-to-compile, and fully-customizable terminal dashboard. It is inspired by [blessed-contrib](https://github.com/yaronn/blessed-contrib), but purely in Go.
|
|
|
|
Now version v2 has arrived! It brings new event system, new theme system, new `Buffer` interface and specific colour text rendering. (some docs are missing, but it will be completed soon!)
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
`master` mirrors v2 branch, to install:
|
|
|
|
go get -u github.com/gizak/termui
|
|
|
|
It is recommanded to use locked deps by using [glide](https://glide.sh): move to `termui` src directory then run `glide up`.
|
|
|
|
For the compatible reason, you can choose to install the legacy version of `termui`:
|
|
|
|
go get gopkg.in/gizak/termui.v1
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Layout
|
|
|
|
To use `termui`, the very first thing you may want to know is how to manage layout. `termui` offers two ways of doing this, known as absolute layout and grid layout.
|
|
|
|
__Absolute layout__
|
|
|
|
Each widget has an underlying block structure which basically is a box model. It has border, label and padding properties. A border of a widget can be chosen to hide or display (with its border label), you can pick a different front/back colour for the border as well. To display such a widget at a specific location in terminal window, you need to assign `.X`, `.Y`, `.Height`, `.Width` values for each widget before sending it to `.Render`. Let's demonstrate these by a code snippet:
|
|
|
|
`````go
|
|
import ui "github.com/gizak/termui" // <- ui shortcut, optional
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
err := ui.Init()
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
panic(err)
|
|
}
|
|
defer ui.Close()
|
|
|
|
p := ui.NewPar(":PRESS q TO QUIT DEMO")
|
|
p.Height = 3
|
|
p.Width = 50
|
|
p.TextFgColor = ui.ColorWhite
|
|
p.BorderLabel = "Text Box"
|
|
p.BorderFg = ui.ColorCyan
|
|
|
|
g := ui.NewGauge()
|
|
g.Percent = 50
|
|
g.Width = 50
|
|
g.Height = 3
|
|
g.Y = 11
|
|
g.BorderLabel = "Gauge"
|
|
g.BarColor = ui.ColorRed
|
|
g.BorderFg = ui.ColorWhite
|
|
g.BorderLabelFg = ui.ColorCyan
|
|
|
|
ui.Render(p, g) // feel free to call Render, it's async and non-block
|
|
|
|
// event handler...
|
|
}
|
|
`````
|
|
|
|
Note that components can be overlapped (I'd rather call this a feature...), `Render(rs ...Renderer)` renders its args from left to right (i.e. each component's weight is arising from left to right).
|
|
|
|
__Grid layout:__
|
|
|
|
<img src="./_example/grid.gif" alt="grid" width="60%">
|
|
|
|
Grid layout uses [12 columns grid system](http://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_grid_system.asp) with expressive syntax. To use `Grid`, all we need to do is build a widget tree consisting of `Row`s and `Col`s (Actually a `Col` is also a `Row` but with a widget endpoint attached).
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
import ui "github.com/gizak/termui"
|
|
// init and create widgets...
|
|
|
|
// build
|
|
ui.Body.AddRows(
|
|
ui.NewRow(
|
|
ui.NewCol(6, 0, widget0),
|
|
ui.NewCol(6, 0, widget1)),
|
|
ui.NewRow(
|
|
ui.NewCol(3, 0, widget2),
|
|
ui.NewCol(3, 0, widget30, widget31, widget32),
|
|
ui.NewCol(6, 0, widget4)))
|
|
|
|
// calculate layout
|
|
ui.Body.Align()
|
|
|
|
ui.Render(ui.Body)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Events
|
|
|
|
`termui` ships with a http-like event mux handling system. All events are channeled up from different sources (typing, click, windows resize, custom event) and then encoded as universal `Event` object. `Event.Path` indicates the event type and `Event.Data` stores the event data struct. Add a handler to a certain event is easy as below:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// handle key q pressing
|
|
ui.Handle("/sys/kbd/q", func(ui.Event) {
|
|
// press q to quit
|
|
ui.StopLoop()
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
ui.Handle("/sys/kbd/C-x", func(ui.Event) {
|
|
// handle Ctrl + x combination
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
ui.Handle("/sys/kbd", func(ui.Event) {
|
|
// handle all other key pressing
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
// handle a 1s timer
|
|
ui.Handle("/timer/1s", func(e ui.Event) {
|
|
t := e.Data.(ui.EvtTimer)
|
|
// t is a EvtTimer
|
|
if t.Count%2 ==0 {
|
|
// do something
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
ui.Loop() // block until StopLoop is called
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
