deno_tui Label-class

Hello. I just started testing around with deno_tui and found the DrawObject-Class. How do i actually use this class? Afaik there is no proper documentation to deno_tui at all and especially not for this class specifically.

DrawObject doesn't do that much by itself, it's used to create TextDrawObject and BoxDrawObject which then are used in components to render on the canvas. To build Tui you probably want to use components instead, if you want to create your own components and use them you can take a look at any of the components in src/components, keep in mind that I'm planning on replacing DrawObjects in the future, I have PR open to do it, will try to finish it as soon as I will have some spare time.

My problem is just, that i dont know, what i need to use for achieving my goal. Basically, i want to have blocks which consist of 16x16 pixel (16 rows, 32 columns) to display textures. The texture of each "block" has to be adjustable. Is there a component that does this?

there's a way to workaround this using styles, but that's not good DX at all, it seems like your usecase is actually in need of custom DrawObject I was planning on implementing ShapePainter in my PR which is essentially what you need, but I didn't even start working on it :/ @realdna it totally escaped my head 🤦‍♂️ you could just use Label component for that

essentially you could just convert the texture into a string and pass it to the label my brain isn't braining

I tried that but with a textbox and it didnt work And i gave up I think the label is gonna work Let me try in a few minutes

https://deno.land/x/tui@2.1.1/src/components/mod.ts you should check that for simple component descriptions textbox is a multiline text input :p

I just tried that method, but it doesnt seem to work properly for me This is my code:
new Label({
parent: tui,
rectangle: {
column: 0,
row: 0
},
text: textures.stone,
theme: {
base(text) {
return text;
},
},
zIndex: 1,
});
new Label({
parent: tui,
rectangle: {
column: 0,
row: 0
},
text: textures.stone,
theme: {
base(text) {
return text;
},
},
zIndex: 1,
});

If youre alreadyhere , is it possible to get the current fps? Like not what its supposed to be, but the actual current fps?
Beast

after I'll rework DrawObject to TextPainter's I'll make sure that the styles will work fine even without multiCodePointSupport
DNA
DNA11mo ago
Nice
Beast
Beast11mo ago
to get the actual actual fps you'd need to use external program to see terminal's refreshrate to see how fast tui's drawing frames you can calculate that by using tui.canvas.on("render") you can go to https://deno.land/x/tui/examples/demo.ts to see how it can be done basically
const fps = new Signal(60);
let lastRender = 0;

const performanceStats = new Text({
parent: tui,
rectangle: { column: 0, row: 0 },
theme: ...,
text: new Computed(() => `FPS: ${fps.value.toFixed(2)`),
zIndex: 0,
});

tui.canvas.on("render", () => {
fps.value = 1000 / (performance.now() - lastRender);
});
const fps = new Signal(60);
let lastRender = 0;

const performanceStats = new Text({
parent: tui,
rectangle: { column: 0, row: 0 },
theme: ...,
text: new Computed(() => `FPS: ${fps.value.toFixed(2)`),
zIndex: 0,
});

tui.canvas.on("render", () => {
fps.value = 1000 / (performance.now() - lastRender);
});

The before texture and the newly set textures are both completely fine by themselves But when changing via signal, it doesnt work until the windows has been resized or something like that
const texture = new Signal(textures.stone);
setTimeout(() => texture.value = textures.wood, 1000)
const texture = new Signal(textures.stone);
setTimeout(() => texture.value = textures.wood, 1000)

holy shit, that's a strange bug most likely I will take a swing at this in monday, I won't be home for a long time tommorow as a work around you could probably create multiple labels and toggle visible property on components

oh, sorry I forgot yes I did, I actually fixed it but didn't push it yet gimme a sec released 2.1.3

Ok np Another thing, how can i have, for example a rectangle completely transparent?
Beast
Beast10mo ago
what do you mean by transparent do you want to just hide a component?
DNA
DNA10mo ago
No I mean actually transparent Like this
new Box({
theme: {
base: crayon.bgRgb(0, 0, 0),
}
})
new Box({
theme: {
base: crayon.bgRgb(0, 0, 0),
}
})
But transparent Like No background color
Beast
Beast10mo ago
that's impossible in terminal
DNA
DNA10mo ago
Lemme try to explain this better
Beast
Beast10mo ago
if you don't want Tui to have a background by default (so default terminal background color) just don't set tui.style property
Beast

just remove style here

Beast
Beast10mo ago
do you mean "no background" here as "its supposed to be blue" or "its supposed to be default terminal background color"
DNA
DNA10mo ago
Just a transparent background In this case blue then
Beast
Beast10mo ago
there's no concept of transparency in a terminal you can assign a theme you used for the box to the text so they'll share their background color
