# Changelog
All notable changes to this project are documented here.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
## [Unreleased]
### Breaking API changes
- The `widgetapi.Widget.Keyboard` and `widgetapi.Widget.Mouse` methods now
accepts a second argument which provides widgets with additional metadata.
All widgets implemented outside of the `termdash` repository will need to be
updated similarly to the `Barchart` example below. Change the original method
signatures:
```go
func (*BarChart) Keyboard(k *terminalapi.Keyboard) error { ... }
func (*BarChart) Mouse(m *terminalapi.Mouse) error { ... }
```
By adding the new `*widgetapi.EventMeta` argument as follows:
```go
func (*BarChart) Keyboard(k *terminalapi.Keyboard, meta *widgetapi.EventMeta) error { ... }
func (*BarChart) Mouse(m *terminalapi.Mouse, meta *widgetapi.EventMeta) error { ... }
```
### Added
#### Infrastructure changes
- `container` now allows users to configure keyboard keys that move focus to
the next or the previous container.
- containers can request to be skipped when focus is moved using keyboard keys.
- containers can register into separate focus groups and specific keyboard keys
can be configured to move the focus within each focus group.
- widgets can now request keyboard events exclusively when focused.
#### Updates to the `button` widget
- the `button` widget allows users to specify multiple trigger keys.
- the `button` widget now supports different keys for the global and focused
scope.
- the `button` widget can now be drawn without the shadow or the press
animation.
- the `button` widget can now be drawn without horizontal padding around its
text.
- the `button` widget now allows specifying cell options for each cell of the
displayed text. Separate cell options can be specified for each of button's
main states (up, focused and up, down).
- the `button` widget allows specifying separate fill color values for each of
its main states (up, focused and up, down).
## [0.13.0] - 17-Nov-2020
### Added
- the `Text` widget now allows user to specify custom scroll marker runes.
### Changed
- terminal cells now support font modifier options (bold, italic,
underline, strike through).
- `tcell` dependency was upgraded to v2.0.0.
- upgraded versions of all other dependencies.
- aligned the definition of the first 16 colors with the definition used by
Xterm and `tcell`. Defined two non-standard colors `ColorMagenta` and
`ColorCyan` to make this change backward compatible for users that use
`termbox-go`.
- made `tcell` terminal implementation the default in examples, demos and
documentation.
### Fixed
- coveralls again triggers and reports on PRs.
- addressed some lint issues.
- improved test coverage in some modules.
- changed the Blue color in demos to a more visible shade.
- fixed a bug where segment display text in `termdashdemo` appeared to be
jumping.
## [0.12.2] - 31-Aug-2020
### Fixed
- advanced the CI Go versions up to Go 1.15.
- fixed the build status badge to correctly point to travis-ci.com instead of
travis-ci.org.
## [0.12.1] - 20-Jun-2020
### Fixed
- the `tcell` unit test can now pass in headless mode (when TERM="") which
happens under bazel.
- switching coveralls integration to Github application.
## [0.12.0] - 10-Apr-2020
### Added
- Migrating to [Go modules](https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules).
- Renamed directory `internal` to `private` so that external widget development
is possible. Noted in
[README.md](https://github.com/mum4k/termdash/blob/master/README.md) that packages in the
`private` directory don't have any API stability guarantee.
## [0.11.0] - 7-Mar-2020
#### Breaking API changes
- Termdash now requires at least Go version 1.11.
### Added
- New [`tcell`](https://github.com/gdamore/tcell) based terminal implementation
which implements the `terminalapi.Terminal` interface.
- tcell implementation supports two initialization `Option`s:
- `ColorMode` the terminal color output mode (defaults to 256 color mode)
- `ClearStyle` the foreground and background color style to use when clearing
the screen (defaults to the global ColorDefault for both foreground and
background)
### Fixed
- Improved test coverage of the `Gauge` widget.
## [0.10.0] - 5-Jun-2019
### Added
- Added `time.Duration` based `ValueFormatter` for the `LineChart` Y-axis labels.
- Added round and suffix `ValueFormatter` for the `LineChart` Y-axis labels.
- Added decimal and suffix `ValueFormatter` for the `LineChart` Y-axis labels.
- Added a `container.SplitOption` that allows fixed size container splits.
- Added `grid` functions that allow fixed size rows and columns.
### Changed
- The `LineChart` can format the labels on the Y-axis with a `ValueFormatter`.
- The `SegmentDisplay` can now display dots and colons ('.' and ':').
- The `Donut` widget now guarantees spacing between the donut and its label.
- The continuous build on Travis CI now builds with cgo explicitly disabled to
ensure both Termdash and its dependencies use pure Go.
### Fixed
- Lint issues found on the Go report card.
- An internal library belonging to the `Text` widget was incorrectly passing
`math.MaxUint32` as an int argument.
## [0.9.1] - 15-May-2019
### Fixed
- Termdash could deadlock when a `Button` or a `TextInput` was configured to
call the `Container.Update` method.
## [0.9.0] - 28-Apr-2019
### Added
- The `TextInput` widget, an input field allowing interactive text input.
- The `Donut` widget can now display an optional text label under the donut.
### Changed
- Widgets now get information whether their container is focused when Draw is
executed.
- The SegmentDisplay widget now has a method that returns the observed character
capacity the last time Draw was called.
- The grid.Builder API now allows users to specify options for intermediate
containers, i.e. containers that don't have widgets, but represent rows and
columns.
- Line chart widget now allows `math.NaN` values to represent "no value" (values
that will not be rendered) in the values slice.
#### Breaking API changes
- The widgetapi.Widget.Draw method now accepts a second argument which provides
widgets with additional metadata. This affects all implemented widgets.
- Termdash now requires at least Go version 1.10, which allows us to utilize
`math.Round` instead of our own implementation and `strings.Builder` instead
of `bytes.Buffer`.
- Terminal shortcuts like `Ctrl-A` no longer come as two separate events,
Termdash now mirrors termbox-go and sends these as one event.
## [0.8.0] - 30-Mar-2019
### Added
- New API for building layouts, a grid.Builder. Allows defining the layout
iteratively as repetitive Elements, Rows and Columns.
- Containers now support margin around them and padding of their content.
- Container now supports dynamic layout changes via the new Update method.
### Changed
- The Text widget now supports content wrapping on word boundaries.
- The BarChart and SparkLine widgets now have a method that returns the
observed value capacity the last time Draw was called.
- Moving widgetapi out of the internal directory to allow external users to
develop their own widgets.
- Event delivery to widgets now has a stable defined order and happens when the
container is unlocked so that widgets can trigger dynamic layout changes.
### Fixed
- The termdash_test now correctly waits until all subscribers processed events,
not just received them.
- Container focus tracker now correctly tracks focus changes in enlarged areas,
i.e. when the terminal size increased.
- The BarChart, LineChart and SegmentDisplay widgets now protect against
external mutation of the values passed into them by copying the data they
receive.
## [0.7.2] - 25-Feb-2019
### Added
- Test coverage for data only packages.
### Changed
- Refactoring packages that contained a mix of public and internal identifiers.
#### Breaking API changes
The following packages were refactored, no impact is expected as the removed
identifiers shouldn't be used externally.
- Functions align.Text and align.Rectangle were moved to a new
internal/alignfor package.
- Types cell.Cell and cell.Buffer were moved into a new internal/canvas/buffer
package.
## [0.7.1] - 24-Feb-2019
### Fixed
- Some of the packages that were moved into internal are required externally.
This release makes them available again.
### Changed
#### Breaking API changes
- The draw.LineStyle enum was refactored into its own package
linestyle.LineStyle. Users will have to replace:
- draw.LineStyleNone -> linestyle.None
- draw.LineStyleLight -> linestyle.Light
- draw.LineStyleDouble -> linestyle.Double
- draw.LineStyleRound -> linestyle.Round
## [0.7.0] - 24-Feb-2019
### Added
#### New widgets
- The Button widget.
#### Improvements to documentation
- Clearly marked the public API surface by moving private packages into
internal directory.
- Started a GitHub wiki for Termdash.
#### Improvements to the LineChart widget
- The LineChart widget can display X axis labels in vertical orientation.
- The LineChart widget allows the user to specify a custom scale for the Y
axis.
- The LineChart widget now has an option that disables scaling of the X axis.
Useful for applications that want to continuously feed data and make them
"roll" through the linechart.
- The LineChart widget now has a method that returns the observed capacity of
the LineChart the last time Draw was called.
- The LineChart widget now supports zoom of the content triggered by mouse
events.
#### Improvements to the Text widget
- The Text widget now has a Write option that atomically replaces the entire
text content.
#### Improvements to the infrastructure
- A function that draws text vertically.
- A non-blocking event distribution system that can throttle repetitive events.
- Generalized mouse button FSM for use in widgets that need to track mouse
button clicks.
### Changed
- Termbox is now initialized in 256 color mode by default.
- The infrastructure now uses the non-blocking event distribution system to
distribute events to subscribers. Each widget is now an individual
subscriber.
- The infrastructure now throttles event driven screen redraw rather than
redrawing for each input event.
- Widgets can now specify the scope at which they want to receive keyboard and
mouse events.
#### Breaking API changes
##### High impact
- The constructors of all the widgets now also return an error so that they
can validate the options. This is a breaking change for the following
widgets: BarChart, Gauge, LineChart, SparkLine, Text. The callers will have
to handle the returned error.
##### Low impact
- The container package no longer exports separate methods to receive Keyboard
and Mouse events which were replaced by a Subscribe method for the event
distribution system. This shouldn't affect users as the removed methods
aren't needed by container users.
- The widgetapi.Options struct now uses an enum instead of a boolean when
widget specifies if it wants keyboard or mouse events. This only impacts
development of new widgets.
### Fixed
- The LineChart widget now correctly determines the Y axis scale when multiple
series are provided.
- Lint issues in the codebase, and updated Travis configuration so that golint
is executed on every run.
- Termdash now correctly starts in locales like zh_CN.UTF-8 where some of the
characters it uses internally can have ambiguous width.
## [0.6.1] - 12-Feb-2019
### Fixed
- The LineChart widget now correctly places custom labels.
## [0.6.0] - 07-Feb-2019
### Added
- The SegmentDisplay widget.
- A CHANGELOG.
- New line styles for borders.
### Changed
- Better recordings of the individual demos.
### Fixed
- The LineChart now has an option to change the behavior of the Y axis from
zero anchored to adaptive.
- Lint errors reported on the Go report card.
- Widgets now correctly handle a race when new user data are supplied between
calls to their Options() and Draw() methods.
## [0.5.0] - 21-Jan-2019
