**NOTE**: this is a currently in a beta release and the API is subject to change (feedback welcome)
|
|
|
|
Inspired by recent commits in the wonderful library [`rich`](https://github.com/Textualize/rich) I decided to write ` yartsu`.
|
|
|
|
I needed to programmatically generate screenshots for documentation purposes. The new `export_svg` methods in `rich` were a godsend.
|
|
So I wanted to try to make this feature a little more generalizable to program output outside of `rich`/`python`.
|
|
Hopefully, you find it useful.
|
|
|
|
If you come across anything unexpected please submit an issue.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install yartsu
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There is a standalone binary available for linux in the [releases](https://github.com/daylinmorgan/yartsu/releases).
|
|
|
|
Optionally install with [`eget`](https://github.com/zyedidia/eget):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
eget daylinmorgan/yartsu
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Otherwise you can download an extract manually to somewhere on your path.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|

Getting a properly formatted output from a terminal screenshot is challenging.
|
|
|
|
There are three options for generating a screenshot.
|
|
|
|
If one of the below option causes you any headaches consider first trying a different option.
|
|
|
|
### Option 1: Pipes
|
|
|
|
Many tools that color output (i.e. `grep` or `ls`) additionally allow
|
|
you to force ANSI color codes to be included even when piping output.
|
|
|
|
In these cases you can simply pipe the output directly into `yartsu`
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ls --color=always | yartsu -w 50 -o assets/ls_color.svg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Option 2: Subprocess/Pty
|
|
|
|
With this option `yartsu` will deploy a `subprocess` and `pty`
|
|
to run your command for you in an attempt to preserve ANSI.
|
|
|
|
Note with this option you need to separate
|
|
the command you want to run with `yartsu` args using `--`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yartsu -w 50 -o assets/ls_color.svg -- ls --color /
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Option 3: Text File
|
|
|
|
Finally, if you neither of the above options work and you can
|
|
manage to preserve the codes in a plain text file you can pass this as input to `yartsu`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ls --color > ls.txt
|
|
yartsu -w 50 -i ls.txt -o assets/ls_color.svg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default svgs will be saved at `./capture.svg`.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, for options 1 and 3 you may want to define your own title with `-t/--title`.
|
|
For option 2 the title will by default be the cmd ran by `yartsu`.
|
|
|
|
### Themes:
|
|
|
|
There are a number of themes you can use to style output.
|
|
Use `yartsu --list-themes` to see the available options.
|
|
Then you can specify the theme you want with `--theme`, i.e. `yartsu --theme rich_default`.
|
|
You may also use the environment variable `YARTSU_THEME`.
|
|
|
|
See [here](https://github.com/daylinmorgan/yartsu/blob/main/docs/themes.md) a preview of the available themes
|
|
|
|
### Supported Characters
|
|
|
|
Currently `yartsu` loads the `nerd font` patched FiraCode font.
|
|
This should result in general support for emoji's and `nerd font` icons.
|
|
|
|
<div align="center"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/daylinmorgan/yartsu/main/assets/demo.svg" alt="Logo" width=400 ></div>
|
|
|
|
**Note**: github won't load the font's when displaying on the README. Click on the `svg` to see the `nerd font` icons.
|
|
|
|
### Differences from [`Rich`](https://github.com/Textualize/rich)
|
|
|
|
For both practical and stylistic reasons the underlying code used to generate the SVG is slightly different than `rich`'s default `save_svg` method. See [here](https://github.com/daylinmorgan/yartsu/blob/main/docs/rich-diff.md) for the current deviation between the latest releases of each respective release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## TODO (for stable release)
|
|
|
|
- [x] add support for nerd-fonts
|
|
- [x] add ~~optional~~ shadow
|
|
- [ ] add unit tests
|
|
- [ ] setup CI for release/testing
