# [
](http://github.com/mum4k/termdash/wiki)
Termdash is a cross-platform customizable terminal based dashboard.
[
](termdashdemo/termdashdemo.go)
The feature set is inspired by the
[gizak/termui](http://github.com/gizak/termui) project, which in turn was
inspired by
[yaronn/blessed-contrib](http://github.com/yaronn/blessed-contrib).
This rewrite focuses on code readability, maintainability and testability, see
the [design goals](doc/design_goals.md). It aims to achieve the following
[requirements](doc/requirements.md). See the [high-level design](doc/hld.md)
for more details.
# Public API and status
The public API surface is documented in the
[wiki](http://github.com/mum4k/termdash/wiki).
Private packages can be identified by the presence of the **/private/**
directory in their import path. Stability of the private packages isn't
guaranteed and changes won't be backward compatible.
There might still be breaking changes to the public API, at least until the
project reaches version 1.0.0. Any breaking changes will be published in the
[changelog](CHANGELOG.md).
# Current feature set
- Full support for terminal window resizing throughout the infrastructure.
- Customizable layout, widget placement, borders, margins, padding, colors, etc.
- Dynamic layout changes at runtime.
- Binary tree and Grid forms of setting up the layout.
- Focusable containers and widgets.
- Processing of keyboard and mouse events.
- Periodic and event driven screen redraw.
- A library of widgets, see below.
- UTF-8 for all text elements.
- Drawing primitives (Go functions) for widget development with character and
sub-character resolution.
# Installation
To install this library, run the following:
```go
go get -u github.com/mum4k/termdash
cd github.com/mum4k/termdash
```
# Usage
The usage of most of these elements is demonstrated in
[termdashdemo.go](termdashdemo/termdashdemo.go). To execute the demo:
```go
go run termdashdemo/termdashdemo.go
```
# Documentation
Please refer to the [Termdash wiki](http://github.com/mum4k/termdash/wiki) for
all documentation and resources.
# Implemented Widgets
## The Button
Allows users to interact with the application, each button press runs a callback function.
Run the
[buttondemo](widgets/button/buttondemo/buttondemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/button/buttondemo/buttondemo.go
```
[
](widgets/button/buttondemo/buttondemo.go)
## The TextInput
Allows users to interact with the application by entering, editing and
submitting text data. Run the
[textinputdemo](widgets/textinput/textinputdemo/textinputdemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/textinput/textinputdemo/textinputdemo.go
```
[
](widgets/textinput/textinputdemo/textinputdemo.go)
Can be used to create text input forms that support keyboard navigation:
```go
go run widgets/textinput/formdemo/formdemo.go
```
[
](widgets/textinput/formdemo/formdemo.go)
## The Gauge
Displays the progress of an operation. Run the
[gaugedemo](widgets/gauge/gaugedemo/gaugedemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/gauge/gaugedemo/gaugedemo.go
```
[
](widgets/gauge/gaugedemo/gaugedemo.go)
## The Donut
Visualizes progress of an operation as a partial or a complete donut. Run the
[donutdemo](widgets/donut/donutdemo/donutdemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/donut/donutdemo/donutdemo.go
```
[
](widgets/donut/donutdemo/donutdemo.go)
## The Text
Displays text content, supports trimming and scrolling of content. Run the
[textdemo](widgets/text/textdemo/textdemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/text/textdemo/textdemo.go
```
[
](widgets/text/textdemo/textdemo.go)
## The SparkLine
Draws a graph showing a series of values as vertical bars. The bars can have
sub-cell height. Run the
[sparklinedemo](widgets/sparkline/sparklinedemo/sparklinedemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/sparkline/sparklinedemo/sparklinedemo.go
```
[
](widgets/sparkline/sparklinedemo/sparklinedemo.go)
## The BarChart
Displays multiple bars showing relative ratios of values. Run the
[barchartdemo](widgets/barchart/barchartdemo/barchartdemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/barchart/barchartdemo/barchartdemo.go
```
[
](widgets/barchart/barchartdemo/barchartdemo.go)
## The LineChart
Displays series of values on a line chart, supports zoom triggered by mouse
events. Run the
[linechartdemo](widgets/linechart/linechartdemo/linechartdemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/linechart/linechartdemo/linechartdemo.go
```
[
](widgets/linechart/linechartdemo/linechartdemo.go)
## The SegmentDisplay
Displays text by simulating a 16-segment display. Run the
[segmentdisplaydemo](widgets/segmentdisplay/segmentdisplaydemo/segmentdisplaydemo.go).
```go
go run widgets/segmentdisplay/segmentdisplaydemo/segmentdisplaydemo.go
```
