datadata Output

The library's device output abstraction. Platform-specific implementations must implement an Output and provide it to mkVtyFromPair.

Constructors

Output
- terminalID :: String
  Text identifier for the output device. Used for debugging.
- releaseTerminal :: IO ()
  Release the terminal just prior to application exit and reset it to its state prior to application startup.
- reserveDisplay :: IO ()
  Clear the display and initialize the terminal to some initial display state.
  The expectation of a program is that the display starts in some The initial state. initial state would consist of fixed values:
  - cursor at top left
  - UTF-8 character encoding
  - drawing characteristics are the default
- releaseDisplay :: IO ()
  Return the display to the state before reserveDisplay If no previous state then set the display state to the initial state.
- setDisplayBounds :: (Int, Int) -> IO ()
  Sets the current display bounds (width, height).
- displayBounds :: IO DisplayRegion
  Returns the current display bounds.
- outputByteBuffer :: ByteString -> IO ()
  Output the bytestring to the terminal device.
- supportsCursorVisibility :: Bool
  Specifies whether the cursor can be shown / hidden.
- supportsMode :: Mode -> Bool
  Indicates support for terminal modes for this output device.
- setMode :: Mode -> Bool -> IO ()
  Enables or disables a mode (does nothing if the mode is unsupported).
- getModeStatus :: Mode -> IO Bool
  Returns whether a mode is enabled.
- assumedStateRef :: IORef AssumedState
- mkDisplayContext :: Output -> DisplayRegion -> IO DisplayContext
  Acquire display access to the given region of the display. Currently all regions have the upper left corner of (0,0) and the lower right corner at (max displayWidth providedWidth, max displayHeight providedHeight)
- ringTerminalBell :: IO ()
  Ring the terminal bell if supported.
- supportsBell :: IO Bool
  Returns whether the terminal has an audio bell feature.
- supportsItalics :: IO Bool
  Returns whether the terminal supports italicized text.
  This is terminal-dependent and should make a best effort to determine whether this feature is supported, but even if the terminal advertises support (e.g. via terminfo) that might not be a reliable indicator of whether the feature will work as desired.
- supportsStrikethrough :: IO Bool
  Returns whether the terminal supports strikethrough text.
  This is terminal-dependent and should make a best effort to determine whether this feature is supported, but even if the terminal advertises support (e.g. via terminfo) that might not be a reliable indicator of whether the feature will work as desired.
- outputColorMode :: ColorMode
  Returns how many colors the terminal supports.
- setOutputWindowTitle :: String -> IO ()
  Set the output's window title, if any.

datadata AssumedState

Constructors

AssumedState
- prevFattr :: Maybe FixedAttr
- prevOutputOps :: Maybe DisplayOps

datadata DisplayContext

Constructors

DisplayContext
- contextDevice :: Output
- contextRegion :: DisplayRegion
  Provide the bounds of the display context.
- writeMoveCursor :: Int -> Int -> Write
  Sets the output position to the specified row and column where the number of bytes required for the control codes can be specified seperate from the actual byte sequence.
- writeShowCursor :: Write
- writeHideCursor :: Write
- writeSetAttr :: Bool -> FixedAttr -> Attr -> DisplayAttrDiff -> Write
- writeDefaultAttr :: Bool -> Write
  Reset the display attributes to the default display attributes.
- writeRowEnd :: Write
- inlineHack :: IO ()
  See Graphics.Vty.Output.XTermColor.inlineHack

datadata Mode

Modal terminal features that can be enabled and disabled.

Constructors

Mouse
Mouse mode (whether the terminal is configured to provide mouse input events)
BracketedPaste
Paste mode (whether the terminal is configured to provide events on OS pastes)
Focus
Focus-in/focus-out events (whether the terminal is configured to provide events on focus change)
Hyperlink
Hyperlink mode via the withURL attribute modifier (see https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda). Note that this may not work gracefully in all terminal emulators so be sure to test this mode with the terminals you intend to support. It is off by default.

valuedisplayContext :: Output -> DisplayRegion -> IO DisplayContext

valueoutputPicture :: DisplayContext -> Picture -> IO ()

Displays the given Picture.

The image is cropped to the display size.
Converted into a sequence of attribute changes and text spans.
The cursor is hidden.
Serialized to the display.
The cursor is then shown and positioned or kept hidden.

valueinitialAssumedState :: AssumedState

valuelimitAttrForDisplay :: Output -> Attr -> Attr

Not all terminals support all display attributes. This filters a display attribute to what the given terminal can display.

valuesetCursorPos :: Output -> Int -> Int -> IO ()

Sets the cursor position to the given output column and row.

This is not necessarily the same as the character position with the same coordinates. Characters can be a variable number of columns in width.

Currently, the only way to set the cursor position to a given character coordinate is to specify the coordinate in the Picture instance provided to outputPicture or refresh.

valuehideCursor :: Output -> IO ()

Hides the cursor.

valueshowCursor :: Output -> IO ()

Shows the cursor.
