Package trayhost is a cross-platform Go library to place an icon in the host operating system's taskbar. - macOS - Fully implemented and supported by @dmitshur. - Linux - Partially implemented, but unsupported (needs an owner/maintainer). - Windows - Partially implemented, but unsupported (needs an owner/maintainer). On macOS, for Notification Center user notifications to work, your Go binary that uses trayhost must be a part of a standard macOS app bundle. Most other functionality of trayhost will be available if the binary is not a part of app bundle, but you will get a terminal pop up, and you will not be able to configure some aspects of the app. Here's a minimal layout of an app bundle: Here's a minimal Info.plist file as reference (only the entries that are needed, nothing extra): - CFBundleIdentifier needs to be set to some value for Notification Center to work. - The binary must be inside Contents/MacOS directory for Notification Center to work. - NSHighResolutionCapable to enable Retina mode. - LSUIElement is needed to make the app not appear in Cmd+Tab list and the dock while still being able to show a tooltip in the menu bar. On macOS, when you run an app bundle, the working directory of the executed process is the root directory (/), not the app bundle's Contents/Resources directory. Change directory to Resources if you need to load resources from there.

Package ui provides a user interface toolkit for Go. The UI toolkit targets SDL2 applications on desktop (Linux, Mac and Windows) or an HTML Canvas render engine for web browsers. It provides various widgets such as Frame, Label, Button, Checkbox, Radiobox and Tooltip and an event supervisor to monitor the state of the widgets.

Package lines provides an unopinionated simple text-oriented UI library. It does the heavy lifting for you when it comes to Following example will crash in the go playground since it can't grab a terminal: Term provides an Lines-instance with a terminal backend. It reports user input and programmatically posted events to listener of client provided components embedding the Component-type. While client listener implementations print to an provided environment Env which is associated with the component's portion of the screen. lines is designed to add further backends like "shiny" or "fyne" for graphical displays. As of now lines has only a terminal backend which is a wrapper around tcell. Above "hello world"-program takes over a terminal screen printing horizontally and vertically centered "hello world" to it. "hello world" stays centered in case the screen is a terminal window which changes its size. Ctrl-c, Ctrl-d or q will quit the application. Note SetWidth in above example works as expected because "hello world" consists of ASCII characters only. Is that not guaranteed you will want to count runes instead of bytes. Setting width and height is not necessary. Left out in above example "hello world" is printed to the screen starting in the upper left corner. What doesn't work what does work Also using functionality or properties provided by embedded Component instance in a function that doesn't return in the executing listener won't work. It is only save to pass (the initially created) Lines instance on to a go routine where at the end provided update mechanisms of said Lines-instance are used to report back to a component. The majority of lines' interfaces are for event handling. Is such an interface implemented in a component, corresponding events are reported to that component. See lines.Eventer for a list of reported events. OnKey, OnFocus, OnLayout are exemplary methods of such interfaces. Keyboard and mouse events are bubbling up from the focused/clicked component through all enclosing ancestors. The environment instance e of such a reported bubbling event may be used to suppress bubbling: e.StopBubbling(). See examples/layers for how to work with events. lines comes with a layout manager which does most of the work for you. If fine grained control is needed the embedded Component's Dim method (see Component.Dim) informs about positioning and size and also provides features to change the later. One can also control there if a component is filling, i.e. uses up unused space, or if its size is fixed. Components can be arbitrarily nested by embedding either the Stacking or Chaining type in a component or by implementing either the Stacker or Chainer interface. Finally components can be Component.Layered by other components which makes it possible to implement tooltip, context menu, menu bar or modal dialogs. See examples/layers for how to work with layers. The Env(ironment) instance passed to a event listener is associated with the screen portion of the component the event is reported to. Printing to the environment prints provided content to its screen portion. Env comes with a few methods which give fine grained control over what is printer where and how. e.g.: The above prints "a centered bold line" centered in bold letters into the component's fifth line. Note the line will stay centered if the component's size changes. If there should be many lines associated with a component c without storing them in the component a component's ContentSource can be set: Whereas the Liner implementation prints the lines as requested by c. See examples/scrolling for a sourced component example. A similar printing API is provided by embedded Component's Gaps(index)-method Above is as of now the simplest way to frame a component. Gaps allow to do all sorts of framing, padding and guttering of a component. See examples/gaps for some show cases. Remember that Src and Gaps will panic if accessed outside a listener callback. The feature concept answers the question after the default behavior of an ui-component. Lets assume we have implemented the components App, MessageBar, Statusbar, Workspace and Panel. Lets further assume component App stacks the components MessageBar, Workspace and Statusbar while a Workspace chains two panel instances p1 and p2. If we now click into p2 we probably expect p2 to receive the focus. But if we click into the statusbar will we also want sb to receive the focus? Maybe, maybe not. To avoid opinionated default behavior lines implements the "Feature" concept whose API may be accessed by the FF-property of the embedded Component instance. Now our component will react on page up/down key-presses if its content doesn't fit (vertically) into c's screen area. But we don't need to set each feature for each component separately: The above line makes all descendants of the workspace focusable, i.e. they receive the focus if clicked with the mouse on them. An other way to acquire features without fuss is to set a components ContentSource which needs to have a Liner-implementation. According to the features of such a Liner-implementation the component's features are set. E.g. is a Liner a ScrollableLiner then the component gets automatically the scrollable feature set. examples/scrolling has examples for features usage. lines comes with testing facilities: lines can be asked for a test fixture. The main features of an Fixture-instance are: setting up and tearing down a corresponding Lines-instance whose WaitForQuit method is not blocking. providing methods for emulating user input events guaranteeing that no event-triggering method returns before its event and all subsequently triggered events have been processed and all writes made it to the screen. (The second argument of TermFixture is a timeout within all such events need to be processed.) providing the screen's content and its styles. Enjoy!
