textual-drivers

Drop-in subclasses of Textual's built-in terminal drivers with two extra capabilities:

  • lock_stdin: pause the driver's stdin thread and silence terminal events so you can run terminal queries or subprocesses without interference
  • register_event_handler: bind a pattern against raw stdin; when it matches, a Message is posted into Textual's event system

A higher-level DNDApp base class builds on these to implement the full kitty drag-and-drop protocol (drag-in and drag-out).

Installation

uv add textual-drivers

Quick start

from textual_drivers import DrivenApp

class MyApp(DrivenApp):
    ...

MyApp().run()

DrivenApp picks the right platform driver automatically.

Documentation

Full docs are on the wiki:

  • Drivers: driver classes, DrivenApp, and mixin usage
  • lock_stdin: exclusive stdin ownership for terminal queries and subprocesses
  • register_event_handler: pattern-based raw stdin -> Textual message routing
  • Drag 'n Drop: kitty drag-and-drop protocol via DNDApp (the main reason for this package)
