pyte

pyte implements a mix of VT100, VT220 and VT520 specification, and aims to support most of the TERM=linux functionality.

Two classes: Stream, which parses the command stream and dispatches events for commands, and Screen which, when used with a stream maintains a buffer of strings representing the screen of a terminal.

Warning

From xterm/main.c “If you think you know what all of this code is doing, you are probably very mistaken. There be serious and nasty dragons here” – nothing has changed.

pyte.streams

This module provides three stream implementations with different features; for starters, here’s a quick example of how streams are typically used:

>>> import pyte
>>>
>>> class Dummy(object):
...     def __init__(self):
...         self.y = 0
...
...     def cursor_up(self, count=None):
...         self.y += count or 1
...
>>> dummy = Dummy()
>>> stream = pyte.Stream()
>>> stream.attach(dummy)
>>> stream.feed(u"")  # Move the cursor up 5 rows.
>>> dummy.y
5

class pyte.streams.ListenerSpec(screen, only, before, after)

An entry in the Screen listeners queue.

after

Alias for field number 3

before

Alias for field number 2

only

Alias for field number 1

screen

Alias for field number 0

pyte.streams.noop(event)[source]

A noop before-after hook for ListenerSpec.

class pyte.streams.Stream[source]

A stream is a state machine that parses a stream of characters and dispatches events based on what it sees.

Note

Stream only accepts text as input, but if, for some reason, you need to feed it with bytes, consider using ByteStream instead.

CSI escape sequences – CSI P1;P2;...;Pn <fn>.

consume(char)[source]

Consumes a single string character and advance the state as necessary.

Parameters:char (str) – a character to consume.

Deprecated since version 0.5.0: Use feed() instead.

feed(chars)[source]

Consumes a string and advance the state as necessary.

Parameters:chars (str) – a string to feed from.
attach(screen, only=())[source]

Adds a given screen to the listener queue.

Parameters:
  • screen (pyte.screens.Screen) – a screen to attach to.
  • only (list) – a list of events you want to dispatch to a given screen (empty by default, which means – dispatch all events).
detach(screen)[source]

Removes a given screen from the listener queue and fails silently if it’s not attached.

Parameters:screen (pyte.screens.Screen) – a screen to detach.
dispatch(event, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Dispatches an event.

Event handlers are looked up implicitly in the screen’s __dict__, so, if a screen only wants to handle DRAW events it should define a draw() method or pass only=["draw"] argument to attach().

Warning

If any of the attached listeners throws an exception, the subsequent callbacks are be aborted.

Parameters:event (str) – event to dispatch.
class pyte.streams.ByteStream(encodings=None)[source]

A stream, which takes bytes (instead of strings) as input and tries to decode them using a given list of possible encodings. It uses codecs.IncrementalDecoder internally, so broken bytes are not an issue.

By default, the following decoding strategy is used:

  • First, try strict "utf-8", proceed if received and UnicodeDecodeError ...
  • Try strict "cp437", failed? move on ...
  • Use "utf-8" with invalid bytes replaced – this one will always succeed.
>>> stream = ByteStream()
>>> stream.feed(b"foo".decode("utf-8"))
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "pyte/streams.py", line 367, in feed
    "{0} requires input in bytes".format(self.__class__.__name__))
TypeError: ByteStream requires input in bytes
>>> stream.feed(b"foo")
Parameters:encodings (list) – a list of (encoding, errors) pairs, where the first element is encoding name, ex: "utf-8" and second defines how decoding errors should be handled; see str.decode() for possible values.
class pyte.streams.DebugStream(to=<_io.TextIOWrapper name='<stdout>' mode='w' encoding='ANSI_X3.4-1968'>, only=(), *args, **kwargs)[source]

Stream, which dumps a subset of the dispatched events to a given file-like object (sys.stdout by default).

>>> stream = DebugStream()
>>> stream.feed("\x1b[1;24r\x1b[4l\x1b[24;1H\x1b[0;10m")
SET_MARGINS 1; 24
RESET_MODE 4
CURSOR_POSITION 24; 1
SELECT_GRAPHIC_RENDITION 0; 10
Parameters:
  • to (file) – a file-like object to write debug information to.
  • only (list) – a list of events you want to debug (empty by default, which means – debug all events).

pyte.screens

This module provides classes for terminal screens, currently it contains three screens with different features:

  • Screen – base screen implementation, which handles all the core escape sequences, recognized by Stream.
  • If you need a screen to keep track of the changed lines (which you probably do need) – use DiffScreen.
  • If you also want a screen to collect history and allow pagination – pyte.screen.HistoryScreen is here for ya ;)

Note

It would be nice to split those features into mixin classes, rather than subclasses, but it’s not obvious how to do – feel free to submit a pull request.

class pyte.screens.Cursor(x, y, attrs=Char(data=' ', fg='default', bg='default', bold=False, italics=False, underscore=False, strikethrough=False, reverse=False))[source]

Screen cursor.

Parameters:
  • x (int) – 0-based horizontal cursor position.
  • y (int) – 0-based vertical cursor position.
  • attrs (pyte.screens.Char) – cursor attributes (see select_graphic_rendition() for details).
class pyte.screens.Screen(columns, lines)[source]

A screen is an in-memory matrix of characters that represents the screen display of the terminal. It can be instantiated on it’s own and given explicit commands, or it can be attached to a stream and will respond to events.

buffer

A lines x columns Char matrix.

cursor

Reference to the Cursor object, holding cursor position and attributes.

margins

Top and bottom screen margins, defining the scrolling region; the actual values are top and bottom line.

charset

Current charset number; can be either 0 or 1 for G0 and G1 respectively, note that G0 is activated by default.

Note

According to ECMA-48 standard, lines and columns are 1-indexed, so, for instance ESC [ 10;10 f really means – move cursor to position (9, 9) in the display matrix.

Changed in version 0.4.7.

Warning

LNM is reset by default, to match VT220 specification.

Changed in version 0.4.8.

Warning

If DECAWM mode is set than a cursor will be wrapped to the beginning of the next line, which is the behaviour described in man console_codes.

See also

Standard ECMA-48, Section 6.1.1 for a description of the presentational component, implemented by Screen.

default_char = Char(data=' ', fg='default', bg='default', bold=False, italics=False, underscore=False, strikethrough=False, reverse=False)

A plain empty character with default foreground and background colors.

default_line = repeat(Char(data=' ', fg='default', bg='default', bold=False, italics=False, underscore=False, strikethrough=False, reverse=False))

An infinite sequence of default characters, used for populating new lines and columns.

display

Returns a list() of screen lines as unicode strings.

reset()[source]

Resets the terminal to its initial state.

  • Scroll margins are reset to screen boundaries.
  • Cursor is moved to home location – (0, 0) and its attributes are set to defaults (see default_char).
  • Screen is cleared – each character is reset to default_char.
  • Tabstops are reset to “every eight columns”.

Note

Neither VT220 nor VT102 manuals mentioned that terminal modes and tabstops should be reset as well, thanks to xterm – we now know that.

resize(lines=None, columns=None)[source]

Resize the screen to the given dimensions.

If the requested screen size has more lines than the existing screen, lines will be added at the bottom. If the requested size has less lines than the existing screen lines will be clipped at the top of the screen. Similarly, if the existing screen has less columns than the requested screen, columns will be added at the right, and if it has more – columns will be clipped at the right.

Note

According to xterm, we should also reset origin mode and screen margins, see xterm/screen.c:1761.

Parameters:
  • lines (int) – number of lines in the new screen.
  • columns (int) – number of columns in the new screen.
set_margins(top=None, bottom=None)[source]

Selects top and bottom margins for the scrolling region.

Margins determine which screen lines move during scrolling (see index() and reverse_index()). Characters added outside the scrolling region do not cause the screen to scroll.

Parameters:
  • top (int) – the smallest line number that is scrolled.
  • bottom (int) – the biggest line number that is scrolled.
set_charset(code, mode)[source]

Set active G0 or G1 charset.

Parameters:
  • code (str) – character set code, should be a character from "B0UK" – otherwise ignored.
  • mode (str) – if "(" G0 charset is set, if ")" – we operate on G1.

Warning

User-defined charsets are currently not supported.

set_mode(*modes, **kwargs)[source]

Sets (enables) a given list of modes.

Parameters:modes (list) – modes to set, where each mode is a constant from pyte.modes.
reset_mode(*modes, **kwargs)[source]

Resets (disables) a given list of modes.

Parameters:modes (list) – modes to reset – hopefully, each mode is a constant from pyte.modes.
shift_in()[source]

Activates G0 character set.

shift_out()[source]

Activates G1 character set.

draw(char)[source]

Display a character at the current cursor position and advance the cursor if DECAWM is set.

Parameters:char (str) – a character to display.

Changed in version 0.5.0: Character width is taken into account. Specifically, zero-width and unprintable characters do not affect screen state. Full-width characters are rendered into two consecutive character containers.

carriage_return()[source]

Move the cursor to the beginning of the current line.

index()[source]

Move the cursor down one line in the same column. If the cursor is at the last line, create a new line at the bottom.

reverse_index()[source]

Move the cursor up one line in the same column. If the cursor is at the first line, create a new line at the top.

linefeed()[source]

Performs an index and, if LNM is set, a carriage return.

tab()[source]

Move to the next tab space, or the end of the screen if there aren’t anymore left.

backspace()[source]

Move cursor to the left one or keep it in it’s position if it’s at the beginning of the line already.

save_cursor()[source]

Push the current cursor position onto the stack.

restore_cursor()[source]

Set the current cursor position to whatever cursor is on top of the stack.

insert_lines(count=None)[source]

Inserts the indicated # of lines at line with cursor. Lines displayed at and below the cursor move down. Lines moved past the bottom margin are lost.

Parameters:count – number of lines to delete.
delete_lines(count=None)[source]

Deletes the indicated # of lines, starting at line with cursor. As lines are deleted, lines displayed below cursor move up. Lines added to bottom of screen have spaces with same character attributes as last line moved up.

Parameters:count (int) – number of lines to delete.
insert_characters(count=None)[source]

Inserts the indicated # of blank characters at the cursor position. The cursor does not move and remains at the beginning of the inserted blank characters. Data on the line is shifted forward.

Parameters:count (int) – number of characters to insert.
delete_characters(count=None)[source]

Deletes the indicated # of characters, starting with the character at cursor position. When a character is deleted, all characters to the right of cursor move left. Character attributes move with the characters.

Parameters:count (int) – number of characters to delete.
erase_characters(count=None)[source]

Erases the indicated # of characters, starting with the character at cursor position. Character attributes are set cursor attributes. The cursor remains in the same position.

Parameters:count (int) – number of characters to erase.

Warning

Even though ALL of the VTXXX manuals state that character attributes should be reset to defaults, libvte, xterm and ROTE completely ignore this. Same applies too all erase_*() and delete_*() methods.

class pyte.screens.DiffScreen(*args)[source]

A screen subclass, which maintains a set of dirty lines in its dirty attribute. The end user is responsible for emptying a set, when a diff is applied.

dirty

A set of line numbers, which should be re-drawn.

>>> screen = DiffScreen(80, 24)
>>> screen.dirty.clear()
>>> screen.draw(u"!")
>>> screen.dirty
set([0])
class pyte.screens.HistoryScreen(columns, lines, history=100, ratio=0.5)[source]

A screen subclass, which keeps track of screen history and allows pagination. This is not linux-specific, but still useful; see page 462 of VT520 User’s Manual.

Parameters:
  • history (int) – total number of history lines to keep; is split between top and bottom queues.
  • ratio (int) – defines how much lines to scroll on next_page() and prev_page() calls.
history

A pair of history queues for top and bottom margins accordingly; here’s the overall screen structure:

[ 1: .......]
[ 2: .......]  <- top history
[ 3: .......]
------------
[ 4: .......]  s
[ 5: .......]  c
[ 6: .......]  r
[ 7: .......]  e
[ 8: .......]  e
[ 9: .......]  n
------------
[10: .......]
[11: .......]  <- bottom history
[12: .......]

Note

Don’t forget to update Stream class with appropriate escape sequences – you can use any, since pagination protocol is not standardized, for example:

Stream.escape["N"] = "next_page"
Stream.escape["P"] = "prev_page"
reset()[source]

Overloaded to reset screen history state: history position is reset to bottom of both queues; queues themselves are emptied.

index()[source]

Overloaded to update top history with the removed lines.

reverse_index()[source]

Overloaded to update bottom history with the removed lines.

prev_page()[source]

Moves the screen page up through the history buffer. Page size is defined by history.ratio, so for instance ratio = .5 means that half the screen is restored from history on page switch.

next_page()[source]

Moves the screen page down through the history buffer.

pyte.modes

This module defines terminal mode switches, used by Screen. There’re two types of terminal modes:

  • non-private which should be set with ESC [ N h, where N is an integer, representing mode being set; and
  • private which should be set with ESC [ ? N h.

The latter are shifted 5 times to the right, to be easily distinguishable from the former ones; for example Origin ModeDECOM is 192 not 6.

>>> DECOM
192

A mapping of ANSI foreground color codes to color names, example:

>>> FG[30]
'black'
>>> FG[38]
'default'
pyte.graphics.BG = {49: 'default', 40: 'black', 41: 'red', 42: 'green', 43: 'brown', 44: 'blue', 45: 'magenta', 46: 'cyan', 47: 'white'}

A mapping of ANSI background color codes to color names, example:

>>> BG[40]
'black'
