curses-util 0.0.7

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..
===========

If you bother to read the code and invariably feel the need to abuse
the person who wrote it, know that such sentiments will be happily
received at [e-mail].
