Textual Inputs is a collection of input widgets for the Textual TUI framework.

News

No Longer Maintained Due to Native Textual Support

Thanks to all the developers who contributed or used Textual Inputs. These widgets filled a gap in the early stages of Textual, which is now supported natively. Special thanks to @willmcgugan for creating this fun and functional framework -> Textual Widget Docs

Quick Start

Installation

python -m pip install textual-inputs~=0.2.6

To use Textual Inputs

from textual_inputs import TextInput, IntegerInput

Checkout the examples for reference.

git clone https://github.com/sirfuzzalot/textual-inputs.git
cd textual-inputs
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install -e .
python examples/simple_form.py

Features

One-Line Syntax Highlighting

Textual Inputs takes advantage of rich's built-in Syntax feature. To add highlighting to your input text set the syntax argument to a language supported by pygments. Currently this is set to the default theme.

โš ๏ธ THIS FEATURE IS LIMITED TO ONE LINE OF TEXT

TextInput(
    name="code",
    placeholder="enter some python code...",
    title="Code",
    syntax="python",
)

Event Handlers

Textual Inputs helps make the event handler process easier by providing the following convenient properties for inputs.

  • on_change_handler_name
  • on_focus_handler_name
email = TextInput(name="email", title="Email")
email.on_change_handler_name = "handle_email_on_change"
email.on_focus_handler_name = "handle_email_on_focus"

Under the hood setting this attribute this will generate a Message class with the appropriate name for Textual to send it to the handler name provided. You'll then want add the handler to the input's parent or the App instance. If you opt not to customize these handlers, their values will be the default handle_input_on_change and handle_input_on_focus. See examples/simple_form.py for a working example.
