pyTooling.TerminalUI

A set of helpers to implement a text user interface (TUI) in a terminal.

Features

  • Colored command line outputs based on colorama
  • Message classification in fatal, error, warning, normal, quiet, ...
  • Get information like terminal dimensions from underlying terminal window

Simple Terminal Application

This is a minimal terminal application example which inherits from LineTerminal.

from pyTooling.TerminalUI import LineTerminal

class Application(LineTerminal):
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(verbose=True, debug=True, quiet=False)

  def run(self):
    self.WriteNormal("This is a simple application.")
    self.WriteWarning("This is a warning message.")
    self.WriteError("This is an error message.")

# entry point
if __name__ == "__main__":
  Application.versionCheck((3, 6, 0))
  app = Application()
  app.run()
  app.exit()

Complex Terminal Application

This example hands over the terminal instance to a submodule, which implements ILineTerminal, so the submodule can also use the terminal's writing methods.

from pathlib import Path
from pyTooling.TerminalUI import LineTerminal, ILineTerminal

class SubModule(ILineTerminal):
  def __init__(self, configFile: Path, terminal):
    super().__init__(terminal)

    if not configFile.exists():
      self.WriteError(f"Config file '{configFile}' not found.")


class Application(LineTerminal):
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(verbose=True, debug=True, quiet=False)

    mod = SubModule(Path("config.yml"), self)

  def run(self):
    pass

# entry point
if __name__ == "__main__":
  app = Application()
  app.run()
