v0.12.0

Validate Your Darlings

This release of Bubbles allows you to handle input validation by defining validation functions that ensure the user is typing text that you expect.

The Validate API introduces a function that is called every time the input changes to ensure that it is still valid input.

// ValidateFunc is a function that returns an error if the input is invalid.
type ValidateFunc func(string) error

// Validate is a function that checks whether or not the text within the
// input is valid. If it is not valid, the `Err` field will be set to the
// error returned by the function. If the function is not defined, all
// input is considered valid.
Validate ValidateFunc

View the Example Code to see Validate and ValidateFuncs work in code.

With these awesome changes introduced by @IllusionMan1212, we can now build forms that ensure all input is valid like a credit card input form!

See the full example to handle input validation in your Bubble Tea apps.

Custom List Status Bar Item Names

Thanks to @wesleimp, lists now have a new function to allow you to set a custom status bar item name. Simply call SetStatusBarItemName on your list with the singular and plural name of your list item and Bubbles will handle the rest (defaults to "item", "items").

list.SetStatusBarItemName("grocery", "groceries")

This will change the string displayed underneath the Title of the list, in this case the item name is being used for displaying 2 groceries.

New Spinners 💫

This release contains two brand new spinners introduced by @wesleimp, check them out:

• Hamburger Spinner
• Meter Spinner

v0.10.2

Housekeeping

🧹 This is a small release to improve the overall integrity of the viewport and textinput Bubbles.

• Setting the width and height on a viewport’s style attribute is now a no-op. Previously it would produce some pretty confusing rendering and generally conflict with the Width and Height attributes on the model.
• Fix a textinput regression where deleting words left of the cursor didn't actually do anything (courtesy @IllusionMan1212)

---

Hungry for more? Here are the details.

New: Timer

@caarlos0 added a simple timer Bubble for counting down.

See the example code and docs for details.

New: Stopwatch

To match the timer, @caarlos0 also added a simple stopwatch Bubble for counting up.

See the example code and docs for details.

Constructor Changes

Prior to this update the convention was to create new models via a NewModel. We've changed that convention to New() for brevity and readability. NewModel() will continue to work in a deprecated fashion to ease the update process.

// Old
s := spinner.NewModel()

// New!
s := spinner.New()

Viewport Improvements

As of this update you're strongly encouraged to initialize viewport models with the new New(width, height int) Model function, however it's currently optional to reduce friction when upgrading.

const width, height = 40, 80
vp := viewport.New(width, height)

Viewport models also now have a Style lipgloss.Style property you can use to apply borders, margins, and padding directly to a viewport. Not more magic numbers, random constants, and fussy arithmetic.

vp.Style = lipgloss.NewStyle().
        BorderStyle(lipgloss.RoundedBorder()).
        BorderForeground(lipgloss.Color("62")).
        PaddingRight(2)

Keybindings on a viewport are now defined via the key Bubble and can now be easily remapped.

vp.KeyMap.Up = key.NewBinding(WithKeys("up", "w"))

For details see the available bindings. Note that you can also just match on keys in the parent Update and call viewport methods like LineUp programmatically.

And, lastly, you can now change the mouse wheel scroll speed, or disable it entirely:

vp := viewport.New()
vp.MouseWheelDelta = 5 // make mouse scrolling really fast!
vp.MouseWheelEnabled = false // jk, turn it off

See the viewport docs for details.

Spinner Improvements

Now spinners only respond to their own spin messages so you don't need any more fancy logic when you want to control multiple spinners at once. To start a specific spinner you now call Tick() on the model instead of the package:

s := spinner.New()

// Old
cmd := spinner.Tick()

// New
cmd := s.Tick()

For posterity, you can still use the package-level Tick method in a deprecated fashion, however note that it will affect all spinners that process the resulting TickMsg as it did prior to the release.

For details see the spinner docs.

Keybindings

key.Binding currently allows you to bind against multiple keys:

binding := key.Binding(key.WithKeys("q", "ctrl+c"))

However, sometimes you may also want to match on multiple bindings:

left := key.Binding(key.WithKeys("h", "left"))
right := key.Binding(key.WithKeys("l", "right"))

case key.Matches(msg, left), key.Matches(msg, right):

This update expands key.Matches to accept multiple arguments so you can condense the above case statement to:

case key.Matches(msg, left, right):

For more on how keybindings work see the key docs.

v0.9.0

Lists, Animated Progress Bar and More

There are a handful of new things in this release, the biggest being the brand new List Bubble we extrapolated from Glow. Read on!

New: List

The List Bubble is a highly customizable, batteries-included component for browsing a set of items. It features pagination, fuzzy filtering, auto-generated help, an activity spinner, and status messages, all of which can be enabled and disabled as needed.

• Example code, default list
• Example code, simple list
• Example code, all features
• Docs

New: Key

A non-visual component for managing keybindings. It’s useful for allowing users to remap keybindings, allows keys to be enabled and disabled programatically, and can be used to generate help views.

import "github.com/charmbracelet/bubbles/key"

up := key.NewBinding(
    key.WithKeys("up", "k"),
    key.WithHelp("↑/k", "move up"),
)

if key.Matches(msg, up) {
    // ...
}

• Example
• Docs

New: Help

A customizable horizontal mini help view that automatically generates itself from your keybindings. It features single and multi-line modes, which the user can optionally toggle between. It will truncate gracefully if the terminal is too wide for the content.

• Example
• Docs

Updated: Progress Bar

The progress bar has been updated so that it can now animate itself via Harmonica. You can, of course, still render non-animated progress bars too.

• Animated example
• Static example
• Docs

Note that there are also some minor API changes to the Progress Bubble. See the changelog below.

Progress Bar Changelog

Changed

• NewModel no longer returns an error
• Model.View(float64) string is now Model.View() string (to render a static view per the prior version use Model.ViewAs(float64) string)
• Invalid hex colors now render as black

New

• Added WithSpringOptions to customize spring animation
• Added Model.Update for animating the progress bar
• Added Model.ViewAs(float64) string for rendering static progress bars
• Model now satisfies the tea.Model interface making more composable

v0.8.0

Textinput Cursor Options and Enhancements

This release introduces options for textinput cursor behavior and improves subtleties with cursor blinking when multiple textinputs are present.

To change the cursor behavior:

import "github.com/charmbracelet/bubbles/textinput"

m := textinput.NewModel()
m.SetCursorMode(textinput.CursorStatic) // no blinking
m.SetCursorMode(textinput.CursorHide)   // actually, let's hide the cursor
m.SetCursorMode(textinput.CursorBlink)  // jk let's make it blink

Changelog

New

• Cursors now have three modes: CursorBlink, CursorStatic and CursorHide (all of type CursorMode). You can set the cursor mode via textinput’s Model.SetCursor(CursorMode) and get the cursor mode with Model.CursorMode() CursorMode.

Changed

• textinput’s Model.Focus() is now Model.Focus() tea.Cmd. This will initiate a properly timed cursor blink when focusing on a textinput if the cursor mode is set to blink.

Fixed

• After their initial cursor blink (initiated by textinput.Blink() tea.Cmd), textinputs can now only receive blink messages they sent. This prevents textinputs from receiving other textinputs blink messages when focus changes.
• When cursor blink messages are sent, former blink messages in transit are invalidated, eliminating the change of rogue blinks.

v0.7.9

Minor Textinput Updates

This is a minor PR that improves the textinput API and behavior when dealing with masked input, such as passwords.

Changed

• SetCursor(int), CursorStart() and CursorEnd() no longer return values.
• If EchoMode is not EchoNormal word-to-word movement instead jumps to the beginning and end. Word-based deletion also deletes to the beginning and end.

New

• Cursor() int returns the cursor position.

Removed

• Removed Cursor string, which did absolutely nothing.
