Wrecked

A library for terminal-based graphics and UI.

About

Wrecked is (hopefully) a straightforward environment for rendering character-based graphics that uses a tree-like structure with rectangles as nodes. It exists partially because I wanted to give myself a reason to work in rust, but mostly because I didn't want to read through the ncurses documentation.

Setup

The latest stable version can be found at crates.io. In your project's Cargo.toml... toml [dependencies] wrecked = "^1.0.0"

Usage

```rust use wrecked::{RectManager, RectColor}; use std::{time, thread};

// Instantiates the environment. Turns off input echo. let mut rectmanager = RectManager::new();

// create a rectangle to put text in. let mut rectid = rectmanager.newrect(wrecked::TOP).ok().unwrap();

// set the new rectangle's size rectmanager.resize(rect_id, 16, 5);

// Add a string to the center of the rectangle rectmanager.setstring(rectid, 2, 3, "Hello World!");

// Make that rectangle blue rectmanager.setbgcolor(rect_id, RectColor::BLUE);

// And finally underline the text of the rectangle rectmanager.setunderlineflag(rect_id);

// Draw the environment rectmanager.render();

// Sleep for 2 seconds so you can see the output before it gets torn down thread::sleep(time::Duration::from_secs(2));

// take down the environment, and turn echo back on. rectmanager.kill(); ```
