Widgets for creating applications
Base class
The base class. The parameter is the initial resource class. The resource class is the first part of all resource keys used by the widget.
For examples, buttons use the resources "button.focused.foreground"
, "button.unfocused.bold"
, ... so their resource class is "button"
.
Labels
Containers
A widget displaying a frame around child widget. Unlike frame
, the child widget is not expanded to take all available space; instead the child is centered and frame is drawn around it. This is a utility class for creation of modal dialogs and similar widgets.
A widget used for layout control within boxes
Lines
Buttons
Checkbutton. A button that can be in active or inactive state.
Radio group.
Radiobutton. The button which implements radio
object contract, so can be added to radiogroup
.
Scrollbars
Adjustable integer value from (0..range-1)
Interface between an adjustment and a scrollbar widget.
Interface used by the scrollbar widget to configure the scrollbar and get parameters needed for rendering
Main object implementing scroll logic for coordination between a scrollable wigdet and a scrollbar widget.
Events exposed by scrollbar widgets. These may be applied to other widgets if required.
class vscrollbar : ?rc:string -> ?default_event_handler:bool -> ?width:int -> scrollable -> object ... end
Vertical scrollbar widget.
class hscrollbar : ?rc:string -> ?default_event_handler:bool -> ?height:int -> scrollable -> object ... end
Horizontal scrollbar widget.
Running in a terminal
val run :
LTerm.t ->
?save_state:bool ->
?load_resources:bool ->
?resources_file:string ->
t ->
'a Lwt.t ->
'a Lwt.t
run term ?save_state widget w
runs on the given terminal using widget
as main widget. It returns when w
terminates. If save_state
is true
(the default) then the state of the terminal is saved and restored when w
terminates.
If load_resources
is true
(the default) then resources_file
(which default to ".lambda-termrc" in the home directory) is loaded and the result is set to w
.
val run_modal :
LTerm.t ->
?save_state:bool ->
?load_resources:bool ->
?resources_file:string ->
t Lwt_react.event ->
unit Lwt_react.event ->
t ->
'a Lwt.t ->
'a Lwt.t
This function works in the same way as run
but also takes two Lwt_react.event
parameters. The first one should contain LTerm_widget.t
widget and makes it new topmost layer in UI. The second message removes the topmost level from UI. All layers are redrawn, from bottom to up, but only the topmost layer gets keyboard events delivered to it. This allows to implement things like modal dialogs.
val prepare_simple_run :
unit ->
(t ->
'a Lwt.t)
* (t ->
unit ->
unit)
* (?step:React.step ->
unit ->
unit)
* ('a ->
unit)
prepare_simple_run ()
returns a tuple (do_run, push_layer, pop_layer, exit)
-- functions useful for creating simple UI.
do_run w
where w is a widget runs the given widget in a terminal over stdout, loading resources from .lambda-termrc
, saving state and restoring it on exit from ui. Example: do_run my_frame
push_layer w
where w is a widget is a callback to add w as a new modal layer to UI. Example: button#on_click (push_layer my_modal_dialog)
.
pop_layer
is a callback to destroy the topmost modal layer. Example: cancel_button#on_click pop_layer
.
exit
is a callback to exit the UI. Example: exit_button#on_click exit
