Package tview implements rich widgets for terminal based user interfaces. The widgets provided with this package are useful for data exploration and data entry. The package implements the following widgets: The package also provides Application which is used to poll the event queue and draw widgets on screen. The following is a very basic example showing a box with the title "Hello, world!": First, we create a box primitive with a border and a title. Then we create an application, set the box as its root primitive, and run the event loop. The application exits when the application's Application.Stop function is called or when Ctrl-C is pressed. You will find more demos in the "demos" subdirectory. It also contains a presentation (written using tview) which gives an overview of the different widgets and how they can be used. Throughout this package, styles are specified using the tcell.Style type. Styles specify colors with the tcell.Color type. Functions such as tcell.GetColor, tcell.NewHexColor, and tcell.NewRGBColor can be used to create colors from W3C color names or RGB values. The tcell.Style type also allows you to specify text attributes such as "bold" or "underline" or a URL which some terminals use to display hyperlinks. Almost all strings which are displayed may contain style tags. A style tag's content is always wrapped in square brackets. In its simplest form, a style tag specifies the foreground color of the text. Colors in these tags are W3C color names or six hexadecimal digits following a hash tag. Examples: A style tag changes the style of the characters following that style tag. There is no style stack and no nesting of style tags. Style tags are used in almost everything from box titles, list text, form item labels, to table cells. In a TextView, this functionality has to be switched on explicitly. See the TextView documentation for more information. A style tag's full format looks like this: Each of the four fields can be left blank and trailing fields can be omitted. (Empty square brackets "[]", however, are not considered style tags.) Fields that are not specified will be left unchanged. A field with just a dash ("-") means "reset to default". You can specify the following flags to turn on certain attributes (some flags may not be supported by your terminal): Use uppercase letters to turn off the corresponding attribute, for example, "B" to turn off bold. Uppercase letters have no effect if the attribute was not previously set. Setting a URL allows you to turn a piece of text into a hyperlink in some terminals. Specify a dash ("-") to specify the end of the hyperlink. Hyperlinks must only contain single-byte characters (e.g. ASCII) and they may not contain bracket characters ("[" or "]"). Examples: In the rare event that you want to display a string such as "[red]" or "[#00ff1a]" without applying its effect, you need to put an opening square bracket before the closing square bracket. Note that the text inside the brackets will be matched less strictly than region or colors tags. I.e. any character that may be used in color or region tags will be recognized. Examples: You can use the Escape() function to insert brackets automatically where needed. When primitives are instantiated, they are initialized with colors taken from the global Styles variable. You may change this variable to adapt the look and feel of the primitives to your preferred style. Note that most terminals will not report information about their color theme. This package therefore does not support using the terminal's color theme. The default style is a dark theme and you must change the Styles variable to switch to a light (or other) theme. This package supports all unicode characters supported by your terminal. If your terminal supports mouse events, you can enable mouse support for your application by calling Application.EnableMouse. Note that this may interfere with your terminal's default mouse behavior. Mouse support is disabled by default. Many functions in this package are not thread-safe. For many applications, this is not an issue: If your code makes changes in response to key events, the corresponding callback function will execute in the main goroutine and thus will not cause any race conditions. (Exceptions to this are documented.) If you access your primitives from other goroutines, however, you will need to synchronize execution. The easiest way to do this is to call Application.QueueUpdate or Application.QueueUpdateDraw (see the function documentation for details): One exception to this is the io.Writer interface implemented by TextView. You can safely write to a TextView from any goroutine. See the TextView documentation for details. You can also call Application.Draw from any goroutine without having to wrap it in Application.QueueUpdate. And, as mentioned above, key event callbacks are executed in the main goroutine and thus should not use Application.QueueUpdate as that may lead to deadlocks. It is also not necessary to call Application.Draw from such callbacks as it will be called automatically. All widgets listed above contain the Box type. All of Box's functions are therefore available for all widgets, too. Please note that if you are using the functions of Box on a subclass, they will return a *Box, not the subclass. This is a Golang limitation. So while tview supports method chaining in many places, these chains must be broken when using Box's functions. Example: You will need to call Box.SetBorder separately: All widgets also implement the Primitive interface. The tview package's rendering is based on version 2 of https://github.com/gdamore/tcell. It uses types and constants from that package (e.g. colors, styles, and keyboard values).
Package gocui allows to create console user interfaces. Create a new GUI: Set GUI managers: Managers are in charge of GUI's layout and can be used to build widgets. On each iteration of the GUI's main loop, the Layout function of each configured manager is executed. Managers are used to set-up and update the application's main views, being possible to freely change them during execution. Also, it is important to mention that a main loop iteration is executed on each reported event (key-press, mouse event, window resize, etc). GUIs are composed by Views, you can think of it as buffers. Views implement the io.ReadWriter interface, so you can just write to them if you want to modify their content. The same is valid for reading. Create and initialize a view with absolute coordinates: Views can also be created using relative coordinates: Configure keybindings: gocui implements full mouse support that can be enabled with: Mouse events are handled like any other keybinding: IMPORTANT: Views can only be created, destroyed or updated in three ways: from the Layout function within managers, from keybinding callbacks or via *Gui.Update(). The reason for this is that it allows gocui to be concurrent-safe. So, if you want to update your GUI from a goroutine, you must use *Gui.Update(). For example: By default, gocui provides a basic edition mode. This mode can be extended and customized creating a new Editor and assigning it to *View.Editor: DefaultEditor can be taken as example to create your own custom Editor: Colored text: Views allow to add colored text using ANSI colors. For example: For more information, see the examples in folder "_examples/".
Package rod is a high-level driver directly based on DevTools Protocol. This example opens https://github.com/, searches for "git", and then gets the header element which gives the description for Git. Rod use https://golang.org/pkg/context to handle cancellations for IO blocking operations, most times it's timeout. Context will be recursively passed to all sub-methods. For example, methods like Page.Context(ctx) will return a clone of the page with the ctx, all the methods of the returned page will use the ctx if they have IO blocking operations. Page.Timeout or Page.WithCancel is just a shortcut for Page.Context. Of course, Browser or Element works the same way. Shows how we can further customize the browser with the launcher library. Usually you use launcher lib to set the browser's command line flags (switches). Doc for flags: https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches Shows how to change the retry/polling options that is used to query elements. This is useful when you want to customize the element query retry logic. When rod doesn't have a feature that you need. You can easily call the cdp to achieve it. List of cdp API: https://github.com/go-rod/rod/tree/main/lib/proto Shows how to disable headless mode and debug. Rod provides a lot of debug options, you can set them with setter methods or use environment variables. Doc for environment variables: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/go-rod/rod/lib/defaults We use "Must" prefixed functions to write example code. But in production you may want to use the no-prefix version of them. About why we use "Must" as the prefix, it's similar to https://golang.org/pkg/regexp/#MustCompile Shows how to share a remote object reference between two Eval. Shows how to listen for events. Shows how to intercept requests and modify both the request and the response. The entire process of hijacking one request: The --req-> and --res-> are the parts that can be modified. Show how to handle multiple results of an action. Such as when you login a page, the result can be success or wrong password. Example_search shows how to use Search to get element inside nested iframes or shadow DOMs. It works the same as https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/dom#search Shows how to update the state of the current page. In this example we enable the network domain. Rod uses mouse cursor to simulate clicks, so if a button is moving because of animation, the click may not work as expected. We usually use WaitStable to make sure the target isn't changing anymore. When you want to wait for an ajax request to complete, this example will be useful.
Package tui is a library for building user interfaces for the terminal. Widgets are the main building blocks of any user interface. They allow us to present information and interact with our application. It receives keyboard and mouse events from the terminal and draws a representation of itself. Widgets are structured using layouts. Layouts are powerful tools that let you position your widgets without having to specify their exact coordinates. Here, the VBox will ensure that the Button will be placed underneath the Label. There are currently three layouts to choose from; VBox, HBox and Grid. Sizing of widgets is controlled by its SizePolicy. For now, you can read more about how size policies work in the Qt docs: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsizepolicy.html#Policy-enum

Nucular is an immediate mode GUI library for Go, its implementation is a partial source port of Nuklear [0] by Micha Mettke. For a brief introduction to Immediate Mode GUI see [1] A window can be opened with the following three lines of code: The first line creates the MasterWindow object and sets its flags (usually 0 is fine) and updatefn as the update function. Updatefn will be responsible for drawing the contents of the window and handling the GUI logic (see the "Window Update and layout" section). The second line configures the theme, the font (passing nil will use the default font face) and the default scaling factor (see the "Scaling" section). The third line opens the window and starts its event loop, updatefn will be called whenever the window needs to be redrawn, this is usually only in response to mouse and keyboard events, if you want the window to be redrawn you can also manually call wnd.Changed(). The update function is responsible for drawing the contents of the window as well as handling user events, this is usually done by calling methods of nucular.Window. For example, drawing a simple text button is done with this code: Widgets are laid out left to right and top to bottom, each row has a layout that can be configured calling the methods of nucular.rowConstructor (an instance of which can be obtained by calling the `nucular.Window.Row` or `nucular.Window.RowScaled`). There are three main row layout modes: Static: in this mode the columns of the row have a fixed, user defined, width. This row layout can be selected calling Static or StaticScaled Dynamic: in this mode the columns of the row have a width proportional to the total width of the window. This row layout can be selected calling Dynamic, DynamicScaled or Ratio Space: in this mode widgets are positioned and sized arbitrarily. This row layout can be selected calling SpaceBegin or SpaceBeginRatio, once this row layout is selected widgets can be positioned using LayoutSpacePush or LayoutSpacePushRatio When calling SetStyle you can specify a scaling factor, this will be used to scale the sizes in the style argument and also all the size arguments for the methods of rowConstructor.

Package openvg is a wrapper to a C library of high-level 2D graphics operations built on OpenVG 1.1 The typical "hello world" program looks like this: The Init function provides the necessary graphics subsystem initialization and the dimensions of the whole canvas. The Init() call must be paired with a corresponding Finish() call, which performs an orderly shutdown. Typically a "drawing" begins with the Start() call, and ends with End(). A program can have an arbitrary set of Start()/End() pairs. The coordinate system uses float64 coordinates, with the origin at the lower left, with x increasing to the right, and y increasing upwards. Currently, the library provides no mouse or keyboard events, other than those provided by the base operating system. It is typical to pause for user input between drawings by reading standard input. The library's functionally includes shapes, attributes, transformations, text, images, and convenince functions. Shape functions include Polygon, Polyline, Cbezier, Qbezier, Rect, Roundrect, Line, Elipse, Circle, and Arc. Transformation functions are: Translate, Rotate, Shear, and Scale. For displaying and measuring text: Text, TextMid, TextEnd, and TextWidth. The attribute functions are StrokeColor, StrokeRGB, StrokeWidth, and FillRGB, FillColor, FillLinearGradient, and FillRadialGradient. Colors are specfied with RGB triples (0-255) with alpha values (0.0-1.0), or named colors as specified by the SVG standard. Convenience functions are used to set the Background color, start the drawing with a background color, and save the raster to a file. The input terminal may be set/restored to/from raw and cooked mode. Package openvg is a high-level 2D vector graphics library built on OpenVG
Open github, search for "git" The launcher lib comes with a lot of default switches (flags) to launch browser, this example shows how to add or delete switches. Useful when you want to customize the element query retry logic Rod provides a lot of debug options, you can use set methods to enable them or use environment variables list at "lib/defaults". Useful when rod doesn't have the function you want, you can call the cdp interface directly easily. Shows how to subscribe events. Request interception example to modify request or response. Such as you logged in your github account and you want to reuse the login session, you may want to launch the browser like this example. If a button is moving too fast, you cannot click it as a human, to perfectly simulate human inputs the click trigger by Rod are based on mouse point location, so usually you need wait a button is stable before you can click it. Some page interaction finishes after some network requests, WaitRequestIdle is designed for it.
Package uinput is a pure go package that provides access to the userland input device driver uinput on linux systems. Virtual keyboard devices as well as virtual mouse input devices may be created using this package. The keycodes and other event definitions, that are available and can be used to trigger input events, are part of this package ("Key1" for number 1, for example). In order to use the virtual keyboard, you will need to follow these three steps: Initialize the device Example: vk, err := CreateKeyboard("/dev/uinput", "Virtual Keyboard") Send Button events to the device Example (print a single D): err = vk.KeyPress(uinput.KeyD) Example (keep moving right by holding down right arrow key): err = vk.KeyDown(uinput.KeyRight) Example (stop moving right by releasing the right arrow key): err = vk.KeyUp(uinput.KeyRight) Close the device Example: err = vk.Close() A virtual mouse input device is just as easy to create and use: Initialize the device: Example: vm, err := CreateMouse("/dev/uinput", "DangerMouse") Move the cursor around and issue click events Example (move mouse right): err = vm.MoveRight(42) Example (move mouse left): err = vm.MoveLeft(42) Example (move mouse up): err = vm.MoveUp(42) Example (move mouse down): err = vm.MoveDown(42) Example (trigger a left click): err = vm.LeftClick() Example (trigger a right click): err = vm.RightClick() Close the device Example: err = vm.Close() If you'd like to use absolute input events (move the cursor to specific positions on screen), use the touch pad. Note that you'll need to specify the size of the screen area you want to use when you initialize the device. Here are a few examples of how to use the virtual touch pad: Initialize the device: Example: vt, err := CreateTouchPad("/dev/uinput", "DontTouchThis", 0, 1024, 0, 768) Move the cursor around and issue click events Example (move cursor to the top left corner of the screen): err = vt.MoveTo(0, 0) Example (move cursor to the position x: 100, y: 250): err = vt.MoveTo(100, 250) Example (trigger a left click): err = vt.LeftClick() Example (trigger a right click): err = vt.RightClick() Close the device Example: err = vt.Close()

Package canvas communicates with an HTML canvas in a web browser via WebSocket. The server program sends draw commands to the canvas and the canvas sends mouse and keyboard events to the server.
Package uinput is a pure go package that provides access to the userland input device driver uinput on linux systems. Virtual keyboard devices as well as virtual mouse input devices may be created using this package. The keycodes and other event definitions, that are available and can be used to trigger input events, are part of this package ("Key1" for number 1, for example). In order to use the virtual keyboard, you will need to follow these three steps: Initialize the device Example: vk, err := CreateKeyboard("/dev/uinput", "Virtual Keyboard") Send Button events to the device Example (print a single D): err = vk.KeyPress(uinput.KeyD) Example (keep moving right by holding down right arrow key): err = vk.KeyDown(uinput.KeyRight) Example (stop moving right by releasing the right arrow key): err = vk.KeyUp(uinput.KeyRight) Close the device Example: err = vk.Close() A virtual mouse input device is just as easy to create and use: Initialize the device: Example: vm, err := CreateMouse("/dev/uinput", "DangerMouse") Move the cursor around and issue click events Example (move mouse right): err = vm.MoveRight(42) Example (move mouse left): err = vm.MoveLeft(42) Example (move mouse up): err = vm.MoveUp(42) Example (move mouse down): err = vm.MoveDown(42) Example (trigger a left click): err = vm.LeftClick() Example (trigger a right click): err = vm.RightClick() Close the device Example: err = vm.Close() If you'd like to use absolute input events (move the cursor to specific positions on screen), use the touch pad. Note that you'll need to specify the size of the screen area you want to use when you initialize the device. Here are a few examples of how to use the virtual touch pad: Initialize the device: Example: vt, err := CreateTouchPad("/dev/uinput", "DontTouchThis", 0, 1024, 0, 768) Move the cursor around and issue click events Example (move cursor to the top left corner of the screen): err = vt.MoveTo(0, 0) Example (move cursor to the position x: 100, y: 250): err = vt.MoveTo(100, 250) Example (trigger a left click): err = vt.LeftClick() Example (trigger a right click): err = vt.RightClick() Close the device Example: err = vt.Close()
Package gotui allows to create console user interfaces. Create a new GUI: Set GUI managers: Managers are in charge of GUI's layout and can be used to build widgets. On each iteration of the GUI's main loop, the Layout function of each configured manager is executed. Managers are used to set-up and update the application's main views, being possible to freely change them during execution. Also, it is important to mention that a main loop iteration is executed on each reported event (key-press, mouse event, window resize, etc). GUIs are composed by Views, you can think of it as buffers. Views implement the io.ReadWriter interface, so you can just write to them if you want to modify their content. The same is valid for reading. Create and initialize a view with absolute coordinates: Views can also be created using relative coordinates: Configure keybindings: gotui implements full mouse support that can be enabled with: Mouse events are handled like any other keybinding: IMPORTANT: Views can only be created, destroyed or updated in three ways: from the Layout function within managers, from keybinding callbacks or via *Gui.Update(). The reason for this is that it allows gotui to be concurrent-safe. So, if you want to update your GUI from a goroutine, you must use *Gui.Update(). For example: By default, gotui provides a basic edition mode. This mode can be extended and customized creating a new Editor and assigning it to *View.Editor: DefaultEditor can be taken as example to create your own custom Editor: Colored text: Views allow to add colored text using ANSI colors. For example: For more information, see the examples in folder "_examples/".
Package zzterm efficiently reads and decodes terminal input keys and mouse events without any memory allocation. It is intended to be used with a terminal set in raw mode as its io.Reader. Setting the terminal in raw mode is not handled by this package, there are a number of Go packages that can do this (see the example). Set the terminal in raw mode, use NewInput to create the input key reader and read from the terminal: Mouse events are supported through the Xterm X11 mouse protocol in SGR mode, which is a complex way to call the "modern" handling of mouse events [1] (beyond the limits of 223 for mouse position coordinates in the old protocol). This should be widely supported by modern terminals, but the tracking of mouse events must be enabled on the terminal so that the escape sequences get sent to zzterm. It is the responsibility of the caller to enable this (with SGR mode) before using Input.ReadKey, but as a convenience zzterm provides the EnableMouse and DisableMouse functions: And then mouse events will be reported (if supported by the terminal): It works similarly to enable reporting focus in/out of the terminal: Different terminals sometimes understand different escape sequences to interpret special keys such as function keys (F1, F2, etc.) and arrows. That configuration is part of the terminfo database (at least on Unix-like systems). While zzterm does not read the terminfo database itself, it supports specifying a map of values where the key is the name of the special key and the value is the escape sequence that should map to this key. The github.com/gdamore/tcell repository has a good number of terminal configurations described in a Go struct and accessible via terminfo.LookupTermInfo [2]. To enable reuse of this, zzterm provides the FromTerminfo function to convert from those structs to the supported map format. It is the responsibility of the caller to detect the right terminfo to use for the terminal. Note, however, that the tcell package patches those terminfo descriptions before use due to some inconsistencies in behaviour - using the raw terminfo definitions may not always work as expected [3]. When no WithESCSeq option is provided (or if a nil map is passed), then a default mapping is used. If a non-nil but empty map is provided, then any escape sequence translation will be disabled (except for mouse and focus events if enabled), and all such sequences will be read as keys of type KeyESCSeq. The input.Bytes method can then be called to inspect the raw bytes of the sequence.

Package tview implements rich widgets for terminal based user interfaces. The widgets provided with this package are useful for data exploration and data entry. The package implements the following widgets: The package also provides Application which is used to poll the event queue and draw widgets on screen. The following is a very basic example showing a box with the title "Hello, world!": First, we create a box primitive with a border and a title. Then we create an application, set the box as its root primitive, and run the event loop. The application exits when the application's Stop() function is called or when Ctrl-C is pressed. If we have a primitive which consumes key presses, we call the application's SetFocus() function to redirect all key presses to that primitive. Most primitives then offer ways to install handlers that allow you to react to any actions performed on them. You will find more demos in the "demos" subdirectory. It also contains a presentation (written using tview) which gives an overview of the different widgets and how they can be used. Throughout this package, colors are specified using the tcell.Color type. Functions such as tcell.GetColor(), tcell.NewHexColor(), and tcell.NewRGBColor() can be used to create colors from W3C color names or RGB values. Almost all strings which are displayed can contain color tags. Color tags are W3C color names or six hexadecimal digits following a hash tag, wrapped in square brackets. Examples: A color tag changes the color of the characters following that color tag. This applies to almost everything from box titles, list text, form item labels, to table cells. In a TextView, this functionality has to be switched on explicitly. See the TextView documentation for more information. Color tags may contain not just the foreground (text) color but also the background color and additional flags. In fact, the full definition of a color tag is as follows: Each of the three fields can be left blank and trailing fields can be omitted. (Empty square brackets "[]", however, are not considered color tags.) Colors that are not specified will be left unchanged. A field with just a dash ("-") means "reset to default". You can specify the following flags (some flags may not be supported by your terminal): Examples: In the rare event that you want to display a string such as "[red]" or "[#00ff1a]" without applying its effect, you need to put an opening square bracket before the closing square bracket. Note that the text inside the brackets will be matched less strictly than region or colors tags. I.e. any character that may be used in color or region tags will be recognized. Examples: You can use the Escape() function to insert brackets automatically where needed. When primitives are instantiated, they are initialized with colors taken from the global Styles variable. You may change this variable to adapt the look and feel of the primitives to your preferred style. This package supports unicode characters including wide characters. Many functions in this package are not thread-safe. For many applications, this may not be an issue: If your code makes changes in response to key events, it will execute in the main goroutine and thus will not cause any race conditions. If you access your primitives from other goroutines, however, you will need to synchronize execution. The easiest way to do this is to call Application.QueueUpdate() or Application.QueueUpdateDraw() (see the function documentation for details): One exception to this is the io.Writer interface implemented by TextView. You can safely write to a TextView from any goroutine. See the TextView documentation for details. You can also call Application.Draw() from any goroutine without having to wrap it in QueueUpdate(). And, as mentioned above, key event callbacks are executed in the main goroutine and thus should not use QueueUpdate() as that may lead to deadlocks. All widgets listed above contain the Box type. All of Box's functions are therefore available for all widgets, too. All widgets also implement the Primitive interface. There is also the Focusable interface which is used to override functions in subclassing types. The tview package is based on https://github.com/gdamore/tcell. It uses types and constants from that package (e.g. colors and keyboard values). This package does not process mouse input (yet).

Package rod is a high-level driver directly based on DevTools Protocol. This example opens https://github.com/, searches for "git", and then gets the header element which gives the description for Git. Rod use https://golang.org/pkg/context to handle cancellations for IO blocking operations, most times it's timeout. Context will be recursively passed to all sub-methods. For example, methods like Page.Context(ctx) will return a clone of the page with the ctx, all the methods of the returned page will use the ctx if they have IO blocking operations. Page.Timeout or Page.WithCancel is just a shortcut for Page.Context. Of course, Browser or Element works the same way. Shows how we can further customize the browser with the launcher library.

The following is a very basic example showing a box with the title "Hello, world!": First, we create a box primitive with a border and a title. Then we create an application, set the box as its root primitive, and run the event loop. The application exits when the application's Application.Stop function is called or when Ctrl-C is pressed. You will find more demos in the "demos" subdirectory. It also contains a presentation (written using tview) which gives an overview of the different widgets and how they can be used. Throughout this package, styles are specified using the tcell.Style type. Styles specify colors with the tcell.Color type. Functions such as tcell.GetColor, tcell.NewHexColor, and tcell.NewRGBColor can be used to create colors from W3C color names or RGB values. The tcell.Style type also allows you to specify text attributes such as "bold" or "underline" or a URL which some terminals use to display hyperlinks. Almost all strings which are displayed may contain style tags. A style tag's content is always wrapped in square brackets. In its simplest form, a style tag specifies the foreground color of the text. Colors in these tags are W3C color names or six hexadecimal digits following a hash tag. Examples: A style tag changes the style of the characters following that style tag. There is no style stack and no nesting of style tags. Style tags are used in almost everything from box titles, list text, form item labels, to table cells. In a TextView, this functionality has to be switched on explicitly. See the TextView documentation for more information. A style tag's full format looks like this: Each of the four fields can be left blank and trailing fields can be omitted. (Empty square brackets "[]", however, are not considered style tags.) Fields that are not specified will be left unchanged. A field with just a dash ("-") means "reset to default". You can specify the following flags to turn on certain attributes (some flags may not be supported by your terminal): Use uppercase letters to turn off the corresponding attribute, for example, "B" to turn off bold. Uppercase letters have no effect if the attribute was not previously set. Setting a URL allows you to turn a piece of text into a hyperlink in some terminals. Specify a dash ("-") to specify the end of the hyperlink. Hyperlinks must only contain single-byte characters (e.g. ASCII) and they may not contain bracket characters ("[" or "]"). Examples: In the rare event that you want to display a string such as "[red]" or "[#00ff1a]" without applying its effect, you need to put an opening square bracket before the closing square bracket. Note that the text inside the brackets will be matched less strictly than region or colors tags. I.e. any character that may be used in color or region tags will be recognized. Examples: You can use the Escape() function to insert brackets automatically where needed. When primitives are instantiated, they are initialized with colors taken from the global Styles variable. You may change this variable to adapt the look and feel of the primitives to your preferred style. Note that most terminals will not report information about their color theme. This package therefore does not support using the terminal's color theme. The default style is a dark theme and you must change the Styles variable to switch to a light (or other) theme. This package supports all unicode characters supported by your terminal. If your terminal supports mouse events, you can enable mouse support for your application by calling Application.EnableMouse. Note that this may interfere with your terminal's default mouse behavior. Mouse support is disabled by default. Many functions in this package are not thread-safe. For many applications, this is not an issue: If your code makes changes in response to key events, the corresponding callback function will execute in the main goroutine and thus will not cause any race conditions. (Exceptions to this are documented.) If you access your primitives from other goroutines, however, you will need to synchronize execution. The easiest way to do this is to call Application.QueueUpdate or Application.QueueUpdateDraw (see the function documentation for details): One exception to this is the io.Writer interface implemented by TextView. You can safely write to a TextView from any goroutine. See the TextView documentation for details. You can also call Application.Draw from any goroutine without having to wrap it in Application.QueueUpdate. And, as mentioned above, key event callbacks are executed in the main goroutine and thus should not use Application.QueueUpdate as that may lead to deadlocks. It is also not necessary to call Application.Draw from such callbacks as it will be called automatically. All widgets listed above contain the Box type. All of Box's functions are therefore available for all widgets, too. Please note that if you are using the functions of Box on a subclass, they will return a *Box, not the subclass. This is a Golang limitation. So while tview supports method chaining in many places, these chains must be broken when using Box's functions. Example: You will need to call Box.SetBorder separately: All widgets also implement the Primitive interface. The tview package's rendering is based on version 2 of https://github.com/ales999/tcell. It uses types and constants from that package (e.g. colors, styles, and keyboard values).

Example_search shows how to use Search to get element inside nested iframes or shadow DOMs. It works the same as https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/dom#search Shows how to update the state of the current page. In this example we enable the network domain. Rod uses mouse cursor to simulate clicks, so if a button is moving because of animation, the click may not work as expected. We usually use WaitStable to make sure the target isn't changing anymore. When you want to wait for an ajax request to complete, this example will be useful.
Package rod is a high-level driver directly based on DevTools Protocol. This example opens https://github.com/, searches for "git", and then gets the header element which gives the description for Git. Rod use https://golang.org/pkg/context to handle cancellations for IO blocking operations, most times it's timeout. Context will be recursively passed to all sub-methods. For example, methods like Page.Context(ctx) will return a clone of the page with the ctx, all the methods of the returned page will use the ctx if they have IO blocking operations. Page.Timeout or Page.WithCancel is just a shortcut for Page.Context. Of course, Browser or Element works the same way. Shows how we can further customize the browser with the launcher library. Usually you use launcher lib to set the browser's command line flags (switches). Doc for flags: https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches Shows how to change the retry/polling options that is used to query elements. This is useful when you want to customize the element query retry logic. When rod doesn't have a feature that you need. You can easily call the cdp to achieve it. List of cdp API: https://github.com/go-rod/rod/tree/main/lib/proto Shows how to disable headless mode and debug. Rod provides a lot of debug options, you can set them with setter methods or use environment variables. Doc for environment variables: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/go-rod/rod/lib/defaults We use "Must" prefixed functions to write example code. But in production you may want to use the no-prefix version of them. About why we use "Must" as the prefix, it's similar to https://golang.org/pkg/regexp/#MustCompile Shows how to share a remote object reference between two Eval. Shows how to listen for events.

Package gocui allows to create console user interfaces. Create a new GUI: Set GUI managers: Managers are in charge of GUI's layout and can be used to build widgets. On each iteration of the GUI's main loop, the Layout function of each configured manager is executed. Managers are used to set-up and update the application's main views, being possible to freely change them during execution. Also, it is important to mention that a main loop iteration is executed on each reported event (key-press, mouse event, window resize, etc). GUIs are composed by Views, you can think of it as buffers. Views implement the io.ReadWriter interface, so you can just write to them if you want to modify their content. The same is valid for reading. Create and initialize a view with absolute coordinates: Views can also be created using relative coordinates: Configure keybindings: gocui implements full mouse support that can be enabled with: Mouse events are handled like any other keybinding: IMPORTANT: Views can only be created, destroyed or updated in three ways: from the Layout function within managers, from keybinding callbacks or via *Gui.Update(). The reason for this is that it allows gocui to be concurrent-safe. So, if you want to update your GUI from a goroutine, you must use *Gui.Update(). For example: By default, gocui provides a basic editing mode. This mode can be extended and customized creating a new Editor and assigning it to *View.Editor: DefaultEditor can be taken as example to create your own custom Editor: Colored text: Views allow to add colored text using ANSI colors. For example: For more information, see the examples in folder "_examples/".

Package tview implements rich widgets for terminal based user interfaces. The widgets provided with this package are useful for data exploration and data entry. The package implements the following widgets: The package also provides Application which is used to poll the event queue and draw widgets on screen. The following is a very basic example showing a box with the title "Hello, world!": First, we create a box primitive with a border and a title. Then we create an application, set the box as its root primitive, and run the event loop. The application exits when the application's Stop() function is called or when Ctrl-C is pressed. If we have a primitive which consumes key presses, we call the application's SetFocus() function to redirect all key presses to that primitive. Most primitives then offer ways to install handlers that allow you to react to any actions performed on them. You will find more demos in the "demos" subdirectory. It also contains a presentation (written using tview) which gives an overview of the different widgets and how they can be used. Throughout this package, colors are specified using the tcell.Color type. Functions such as tcell.GetColor(), tcell.NewHexColor(), and tcell.NewRGBColor() can be used to create colors from W3C color names or RGB values. Almost all strings which are displayed can contain color tags. Color tags are W3C color names or six hexadecimal digits following a hash tag, wrapped in square brackets. Examples: A color tag changes the color of the characters following that color tag. This applies to almost everything from box titles, list text, form item labels, to table cells. In a TextView, this functionality has to be switched on explicitly. See the TextView documentation for more information. Color tags may contain not just the foreground (text) color but also the background color and additional flags. In fact, the full definition of a color tag is as follows: Each of the three fields can be left blank and trailing fields can be omitted. (Empty square brackets "[]", however, are not considered color tags.) Colors that are not specified will be left unchanged. A field with just a dash ("-") means "reset to default". You can specify the following flags (some flags may not be supported by your terminal): Examples: In the rare event that you want to display a string such as "[red]" or "[#00ff1a]" without applying its effect, you need to put an opening square bracket before the closing square bracket. Note that the text inside the brackets will be matched less strictly than region or colors tags. I.e. any character that may be used in color or region tags will be recognized. Examples: You can use the Escape() function to insert brackets automatically where needed. When primitives are instantiated, they are initialized with colors taken from the global Styles variable. You may change this variable to adapt the look and feel of the primitives to your preferred style. This package supports unicode characters including wide characters. Many functions in this package are not thread-safe. For many applications, this may not be an issue: If your code makes changes in response to key events, it will execute in the main goroutine and thus will not cause any race conditions. If you access your primitives from other goroutines, however, you will need to synchronize execution. The easiest way to do this is to call Application.QueueUpdate() or Application.QueueUpdateDraw() (see the function documentation for details): One exception to this is the io.Writer interface implemented by TextView. You can safely write to a TextView from any goroutine. See the TextView documentation for details. You can also call Application.Draw() from any goroutine without having to wrap it in QueueUpdate(). And, as mentioned above, key event callbacks are executed in the main goroutine and thus should not use QueueUpdate() as that may lead to deadlocks. All widgets listed above contain the Box type. All of Box's functions are therefore available for all widgets, too. All widgets also implement the Primitive interface. There is also the Focusable interface which is used to override functions in subclassing types. The tview package is based on https://maunium.net/go/tcell. It uses types and constants from that package (e.g. colors and keyboard values). This package does not process mouse input (yet).
Package gop5js let you use the p5.js library with Go programs. Part of the package is a webserver, which uses websockets to connect with the browser. All the changes inside the Go program will be pushed to the browser. Mouse events are also send back to the server, so that the Go program can handle these events. How to use p5.js can be found at https://p5js.org/ Not all functions inside Go are completely the same like in JavaScript, because Go is a typed language and JS not. To get this package work you need to define a simple function of type func(). This function should be set to `gpp5js.Draw`. The second thing is to call gop5js.Serve() at the end of the main function. A simple example which draws a circle would look like this: The draw() function is the area, were you define all the elements, which will show up inside the web browser. That function is called every frame so you are also able to get some dynamics into the canvas. If you want to have a moving circle, the example above would look something like this: If that package had not implemented some p5.js features you can always use DrawCmd(). That function send direct the JavaScript to the browser. The ellipse function in JavaScript could be also called with 5 parameters So if you want to set also the detail to the function you can write:
