curses-util 0.0.25

No project description provided

Goals

A collection of curses utils for performing simple UI tasks. Currently this includes a simple console and a menu with vi-like bindings.

Installation

Requires python 3.

pip3 install curses-util should do the trick, or else python setup.py install from source.

Usage

SimpleConsole

A simple console with a single line input window.

import curses_util

def handle_input(console, input):
    console.log("Got input: " + input) #Logs result to the output window.

console = curses_used.SimpleConsole(handle_input)
console.log("Welcome")

Menu

This can be used to vend a collection of items which the user may then select one or more of. Navigation can be performed using standard vi bindings (count operands are also supported) or via the arrow keys. Multiple items can be selected with ‘multi_vend()’ if the user presses m over each of the items they wish to select and then presses enter.

import curses_util

menu = curses_util.Menu()

items = [ str(i) for i in range(100) ]
selected = menu.vend(items)

print("The following items were selected: \n")
print("\n".join(items), "\n")

Bugs, etc..
