LamBox

A Terminal User Interface Library for Haskell

This project is a work-in-progress and is not fully operational yet

LamBox uses the ncurses package to provide a high level tool for creating tui's. Its main purpose is to streamline the process of creating a user interface and eliminate a lot of the boilerplate required to get ncurses up and running.

Example

{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
module Main where

import UI.NCurses (Event(..))
import UI.Lambox

main :: IO ()
main = lambox $ do
  (box1,box2) <- do
    (b1,b2) <- splitBox config Horizontal 0.5
    nb1 <- withBox b1
      [ setTitle (Just title)
      , writeStr 2 2 "Hello World!"
      ]
    nb2 <- writeStr' b2 2 2 "Press 'q' to quit!"
    pure (nb1, nb2)
  update
  waitForGlobal (== EventCharacter 'q')
  deleteBoxes [box1, box2]
  where
    title = Title "LamBox" AlignTop AlignRight
    config = Config 2 2 22 10 (BoxAttributes Line Nothing) []
