Terminado

Build Status Documentation Status

This is a Tornado websocket backend for the Xterm.js Javascript terminal emulator library.

It evolved out of pyxterm, which was part of GraphTerm (as lineterm.py), v0.57.0 (2014-07-18), and ultimately derived from the public-domain Ajaxterm code, v0.11 (2008-11-13) (also on Github as part of QWeb).

Modules:

  • terminado.management: controls launching virtual terminals, connecting them to Tornado's event loop, and closing them down.
  • terminado.websocket: Provides a websocket handler for communicating with a terminal.
  • terminado.uimodule: Provides a Terminal Tornado UI Module.

JS:

  • terminado/_static/terminado.js: A lightweight wrapper to set up a term.js terminal with a websocket.

Local Installation:

$ pip install -e .[test]

Usage example:

import os.path
import tornado.web
import tornado.ioloop

# This demo requires tornado_xstatic and XStatic-term.js
import tornado_xstatic

import terminado

STATIC_DIR = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(terminado.__file__), "_static")


class TerminalPageHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        return self.render(
            "termpage.html",
            static=self.static_url,
            xstatic=self.application.settings["xstatic_url"],
            ws_url_path="/websocket",
        )


if __name__ == "__main__":
    term_manager = terminado.SingleTermManager(shell_command=["bash"])
    handlers = [
        (r"/websocket", terminado.TermSocket, {"term_manager": term_manager}),
        (r"/", TerminalPageHandler),
        (
            r"/xstatic/(.*)",
            tornado_xstatic.XStaticFileHandler,
            {"allowed_modules": ["termjs"]},
        ),
    ]
    app = tornado.web.Application(
        handlers,
        static_path=STATIC_DIR,
        xstatic_url=tornado_xstatic.url_maker("/xstatic/"),
    )
    # Serve at http://localhost:8765/ N.B. Leaving out 'localhost' here will
    # work, but it will listen on the public network interface as well.
    # Given what terminado does, that would be rather a security hole.
    app.listen(8765, "localhost")
    try:
        tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.instance().start()
    finally:
        term_manager.shutdown()

See the demos directory for more examples. This is a simplified version of the single.py demo.
