Tea

茶! The fun, functional way to build terminal apps. A Go framework based on The Elm Architecture.

Simple example

package main

// A simple program that counts down from 5 and then exits.

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"time"
	"github.com/charmbracelet/tea"
)

type model int

type tickMsg struct{}

func main() {
	p := tea.NewProgram(init, update, view, subscriptions)
	if err := p.Start(); err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

// Listen for messages and update the model accordingly
func update(msg tea.Msg, mdl tea.Model) (tea.Model, tea.Cmd) {
	m, _ := mdl.(model)

	switch msg.(type) {
	case tickMsg:
        m--
		if m <= 0 {
			return m, tea.Quit
		}
	}
	return m, nil
}

// Render to the terminal
func view(mdl tea.Model) string {
	m, _ := mdl.(model)
	return fmt.Sprintf("Hi. This program will exit in %d seconds...\n", m)
}

// Subscribe to events
func subscriptions(_ tea.Model) tea.Subs {
    return tea.Subs{
        "tick": tick,
    }
}

func tick(_ tea.Model) tea.Msg {
	time.Sleep(time.Second)
	return tickMsg{}
}
