    Testing
    
+
    Code testing is an important part of software development.
+This chapter will cover how to write tests for your Textual apps.
    
+
    What is testing?
    
+
    It is common to write tests alongside your app.
+A test is simply a function that confirms your app is working correctly.
    
+
    
+
    Learn more about testing
    
+
    We recommend Python Testing with pytest for a comprehensive guide to writing tests.
    
+
    
+
    Do you need to write tests?
    
+
    The short answer is "no", you don't need to write tests.
    
+
    In practice however, it is almost always a good idea to write tests.
+Writing code that is completely bug free is virtually impossible, even for experienced developers.
+If you want to have confidence that your application will run as you intended it to, then you should write tests.
+Your test code will help you find bugs early, and alert you if you accidentally break something in the future.

    Testing frameworks for Textual
    
+
    Textual doesn't require any particular test framework.
+You can use any test framework you are familiar with, but we will be using pytest in this chapter.
    
+
    Testing apps
    
+
    You can often test Textual code in the same way as any other app, and use similar techniques.
+But when testing user interface interactions, you may need to use Textual's dedicated test features.
    
+
    Let's write a simple Textual app so we can demonstrate how to test it.
+The following app shows three buttons labelled "red", "green", and "blue".
+Clicking one of those buttons or pressing a corresponding R, G, and B key will change the background color.
    
+
    
+
    
+
    
+
    from textual import on
+from textual.app import App, ComposeResult
+from textual.containers import Horizontal
+from textual.widgets import Button, Footer
+
+
+class RGBApp(App):
+    CSS = """
+    Screen {
+        align: center middle;
+    }
+    Horizontal {
+        width: auto;
+        height: auto;
+    }
+    """
+
+    BINDINGS = [
+        ("r", "switch_color('red')", "Go Red"),
+        ("g", "switch_color('green')", "Go Green"),
+        ("b", "switch_color('blue')", "Go Blue"),
+    ]
+
+    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
+        with Horizontal():
+            yield Button("Red", id="red")
+            yield Button("Green", id="green")
+            yield Button("Blue", id="blue")
+        yield Footer()
+
+    @on(Button.Pressed)
+    def pressed_button(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:
+        assert event.button.id is not None
+        self.action_switch_color(event.button.id)
+
+    def action_switch_color(self, color: str) -> None:
+        self.screen.styles.background = color

    Although it is straightforward to test an app like this manually, it is not practical to click every button and hit every key in your app after changing a single line of code.
+Tests allow us to automate such testing so we can quickly simulate user interactions and check the result.
    
+
    To test our simple app we will use the run_test() method on the App class.
+This replaces the usual call to run() and will run the app in headless mode, which prevents Textual from updating the terminal but otherwise behaves as normal.
    
+
    The run_test() method is an async context manager which returns a Pilot object.
+You can use this object to interact with the app as if you were operating it with a keyboard and mouse.
    
+
    Let's look at the tests for the example above:
    
+
    test_rgb.py
    from rgb import RGBApp
+
+from textual.color import Color
+
+
+async def test_keys():  # (1)!
+    """Test pressing keys has the desired result."""
+    app = RGBApp()
+    async with app.run_test() as pilot:  # (2)!
+        # Test pressing the R key
+        await pilot.press("r")  # (3)!
+        assert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse("red")  # (4)!
+
+        # Test pressing the G key
+        await pilot.press("g")
+        assert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse("green")
+
+        # Test pressing the B key
+        await pilot.press("b")
+        assert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse("blue")
+
+        # Test pressing the X key
+        await pilot.press("x")
+        # No binding (so no change to the color)
+        assert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse("blue")
+
+
+async def test_buttons():
+    """Test pressing keys has the desired result."""
+    app = RGBApp()
+    async with app.run_test() as pilot:
+        # Test clicking the "red" button
+        await pilot.click("#red")  # (5)!
+        assert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse("red")
+
+        # Test clicking the "green" button
+        await pilot.click("#green")
+        assert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse("green")
+
+        # Test clicking the "blue" button
+        await pilot.click("#blue")
+        assert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse("blue")
+
    
+
      
+
    1. The run_test() method requires that it run in a coroutine, so test must use the async keyword.
      2. 
+
    2. This runs the app and returns a Pilot instance we can use to interact with it.
      3. 
+
    3. Simulates pressing the R key.
      4. 
+
    4. This checks that pressing the R key has resulted in the background color changing.
      5. 
+
    5. Simulates clicking on the widget with an id of red (the button labelled "Red").
      6. 
+
    
+
    There are two tests defined in test_rgb.py.
+One to test keys and one to test button clicks.
+Both tests first construct an instance of the app and call run_test() to get a Pilot object.
+The test_keys function simulates key presses with Pilot.press, and test_buttons simulates button clicks with Pilot.click.
    
+
    After simulating a user interaction, Textual tests will typically check the state has been updated with an assert statement.
+The pytest module will record any failures of these assert statements as a test fail.
    
+
    If you run the tests with pytest test_rgb.py you should get 2 passes, which will confirm that the user will be able to click buttons or press the keys to change the background color.
    
+
    If you later update this app, and accidentally break this functionality, one or more of your tests will fail.
+Knowing which test has failed will help you quickly track down where your code was broken.
    
+
    Simulating key presses
    
+
    We've seen how the press method simulates keys.
+You can also supply multiple keys to simulate the user typing in to the app.
+Here's an example of simulating the user typing the word "hello".
    
+
    await pilot.press("h", "e", "l", "l", "o")
+
    
+
    Each string creates a single keypress.
+You can also use the name for non-printable keys (such as "enter") and the "ctrl+" modifier.
+These are the same identifiers as used for key events, which you can experiment with by running textual keys.
    
+
    Simulating clicks
    
+
    You can simulate mouse clicks in a similar way with Pilot.click.
+If you supply a css selector Textual will simulate clicking on the matching widget.
    
+
    
+
    Note
    
+
    If there is another widget in front of the widget you want to click, you may end up clicking the topmost widget rather than the widget indicated in the selector.
+This is generally what you want, because a real user would experience the same thing.
    
+
    
+
    Clicking the screen
    
+
    If you don't supply a CSS selector, then the click will be relative to the screen.
+For example, the following simulates a click at (0, 0):
    
+
    await pilot.click()
+
    
+
    Click offsets
    
+
    If you supply an offset value, it will be added to the coordinates of the simulated click.
+For example the following line would simulate a click at the coordinates (10, 5).
    
+
    await pilot.click(offset=(10, 5))
+
    
+
    If you combine this with a selector, then the offset will be relative to the widget.
+Here's how you would click the line above a button.
    
+
    await pilot.click(Button, offset(0, -1))
+
    
+
    Modifier keys
    
+
    You can simulate clicks in combination with modifier keys, by setting the shift, meta, or control parameters.
+Here's how you could simulate ctrl-clicking a widget with an id of "slider":
    
+
    await pilot.click("#slider", control=True)
+
    
+
    Changing the screen size
    
+
    The default size of a simulated app is (80, 24).
+You may want to test what happens when the app has a different size.
+To do this, set the size parameter of run_test to a different size.
+For example, here is how you would simulate a terminal resized to 100 columns and 50 lines:
    
+
    async with app.run_test(size=(100, 50)) as pilot:
+    ...
+
    
+
    Pausing the pilot
    
+
    Some actions in a Textual app won't change the state immediately.
+For instance messages may take a moment to bubble from the widget that sent them.
+If you were to post a message and immediately assert you may find that it fails because the message hasn't yet been processed.
    
+
    You can generally solve this by calling pause() which will wait for all pending messages to be processed.
+You can also supply a delay parameter, which will insert a delay prior to waiting for pending messages.
    
+
    Textual's test
    
+
    Textual itself has a large battery of tests.
+If you are interested in how we write tests, see the tests/ directory in the Textual repository.

    Running a Textual app puts your terminal in to application mode which disables clicking and dragging to select text. Most terminal emulators offer a modifier key which you can hold while you click and drag to restore the behavior you may expect from the command line. The exact modifier key depends on the terminal and platform you are running on.
     
       
    • iTerm Hold the OPTION key.
      •  
    • Gnome Terminal Hold the SHIFT key.
      •  
    • Windows Terminal Hold the SHIFT key.

    Some terminal emulators have a translucent background feature which allows the desktop underneath to be partially visible.
     
    This feature is unlikely to work with Textual, as the translucency effect requires the use of ANSI background colors, which Textual doesn't use. Textual uses 16.7 million colors where available which enables consistent colors across all platforms and additional effects which aren't possible with ANSI colors.
     
    For more information on ANSI colors in Textual, see Why no Ansi Themes?.

    Tip
     
    See How To Center Things in the Textual documentation for a more comprensive answer to this question.
     
    To center a widget within a container use align. But remember that align works on the children of a container, it isn't something you use on the child you want centered.
     
    For example, here's an app that shows a Button in the middle of a Screen:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass ButtonApp(App):\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Button(\"PUSH ME!\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nButtonApp().run()\n
     
    If you use the above on multiple widgets, you'll find they appear to \"left-align\" in the center of the screen, like this:
     
    +-----+\n|     |\n+-----+\n\n+---------+\n|         |\n+---------+\n\n+---------------+\n|               |\n+---------------+\n
     
    If you want them more like this:
     
         +-----+\n     |     |\n     +-----+\n\n   +---------+\n   |         |\n   +---------+\n\n+---------------+\n|               |\n+---------------+\n
     
    the best approach is to wrap each widget in a Center container that individually centers it. For example:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Center\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass ButtonApp(App):\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Center(Button(\"PUSH ME!\"))\nyield Center(Button(\"AND ME!\"))\nyield Center(Button(\"ALSO PLEASE PUSH ME!\"))\nyield Center(Button(\"HEY ME ALSO!!\"))\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nButtonApp().run()\n

    Textual version 0.31.0 requires that you set thread=True on the @work decorator if you want to run a threaded worker.
     
    If you want a threaded worker, you would declare it in the following way:
     
    @work(thread=True)\ndef run_in_background():\n...\n
     
    If you don't want a threaded worker, you should make your work function async:

    This change was made because it was too easy to accidentally create a threaded worker, which may produce unexpected results.

    When creating your App class, override __init__ as you would when inheriting normally. For example:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass Greetings(App[None]):\ndef __init__(self, greeting: str=\"Hello\", to_greet: str=\"World\") -> None:\nself.greeting = greeting\nself.to_greet = to_greet\nsuper().__init__()\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(f\"{self.greeting}, {self.to_greet}\")\n
     
    Then the app can be run, passing in various arguments; for example:
     
    # Running with default arguments.\nGreetings().run()\n# Running with a keyword argument.\nGreetings(to_greet=\"davep\").run()\n# Running with both positional arguments.\nGreetings(\"Well hello\", \"there\").run()\n

    Textual can only ever support key combinations that are passed on by your terminal application. Which keys get passed on can differ from terminal to terminal, and from operating system to operating system.
     
    Because of this it's best to stick to key combinations that are known to be universally-supported; these include the likes of:
     
       
    • Letters
      •  
    • Numbers
      •  
    • Numbered function keys (especially F1 through F10)
      •  
    • Space
      •  
    • Return
      •  
    • Arrow, home, end and page keys
      •  
    • Control
      •  
    • Shift
      •  
     
    When creating bindings for your application we recommend picking keys and key combinations from the above.
     
    Keys that aren't normally passed through by terminals include Cmd and Option on macOS, and the Windows key on Windows.
     
    If you need to test what key combinations work in different environments you can try them out with textual keys.

    You may find that the default macOS Terminal.app doesn't render Textual apps (and likely other TUIs) very well, particuarily when it comes to box characters. For instance, you may find it displays misaligned blocks and lines like this:
     
     
    You can (mostly) fix this by opening settings -> profiles > Text tab, and changing the font settings. We have found that Menlo Regular font, with a character spacing of 1 and line spacing of 0.805 produces reasonable results. If you want to use another font, you may have to tweak the line spacing until you get good results.
     
     
    With these changes, Textual apps render more as intended:
     
     
    Even with this fix, Terminal.app has a few limitations. It is limited to 256 colors, and can be a little slow compared to more modern alternatives. Fortunately there are a number of free terminal emulators for macOS which produces high quality results.
     
    We recommend any of the following terminals:
     
       
    • iTerm2
      •  
    • Kitty
      •  
    • WezTerm

    Textual will not generate escape sequences for the 16 themeable ANSI colors.
     
    This is an intentional design decision we took for for the following reasons:
     
       
    • Not everyone has a carefully chosen ANSI color theme. Color combinations which may look fine on your system, may be unreadable on another machine. There is very little an app author or Textual can do to resolve this. Asking users to simply pick a better theme is not a good solution, since not all users will know how.
      •  
    • ANSI colors can't be manipulated in the way Textual can do with other colors. Textual can blend colors and produce light and dark shades from an original color, which is used to create more readable text and user interfaces. Color blending will also be used to power future accessibility features.
      •  
     
    Textual has a design system which guarantees apps will be readable on all platforms and terminals, and produces better results than ANSI colors.
     
    There is currently a light and dark version of the design system, but more are planned. It will also be possible for users to customize the source colors on a per-app or per-system basis. This means that in the future you will be able to modify the core colors to blend in with your chosen terminal theme.
     
    "},{"location":"FAQ/#why-doesnt-the-datatable-scroll-programmatically","title":"Why doesn't the DataTable scroll programmatically?","text":"
    If scrolling in your DataTable is apparently broken, it may be because your DataTable is using the default value of height: auto. This means that the table will be sized to fit its rows without scrolling, which may cause the container (typically the screen) to scroll. If you would like the table itself to scroll, set the height to something other than auto, like 100%.
     
    NOTE: As of Textual v0.31.0 the max-height of a DataTable is set to 100%, this will mean that the above is no longer the default experience.

    We're going to build a stopwatch application. This application should show a list of stopwatches with buttons to start, stop, and reset the stopwatches. We also want the user to be able to add and remove stopwatches as required.
     
    This will be a simple yet fully featured app \u2014 you could distribute this app if you wanted to!
     
    Here's what the finished app will look like:

    If you want to try the finished Stopwatch app and follow along with the code, first make sure you have Textual installed then check out the Textual repository:
     HTTPSSSHGitHub CLI 
    git clone https://github.com/Textualize/textual.git\n
     
    git clone git@github.com:Textualize/textual.git\n
     
    gh repo clone Textualize/textual\n
     
    With the repository cloned, navigate to docs/examples/tutorial and run stopwatch.py.
     
    cd textual/docs/examples/tutorial\npython stopwatch.py\n

    Tip
     
    Type hints are entirely optional in Textual. We've included them in the example code but it's up to you whether you add them to your own projects.
     
    We're a big fan of Python type hints at Textualize. If you haven't encountered type hinting, it's a way to express the types of your data, parameters, and return values. Type hinting allows tools like mypy to catch bugs before your code runs.
     
    The following function contains type hints:
     
    def repeat(text: str, count: int) -> str:\n\"\"\"Repeat a string a given number of times.\"\"\"\nreturn text * count\n
     
    Parameter types follow a colon. So text: str indicates that text requires a string and count: int means that count requires an integer.
     
    Return types follow ->. So -> str: indicates this method returns a string.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#the-app-class","title":"The App class","text":"
    The first step in building a Textual app is to import and extend the App class. Here's a basic app class we will use as a starting point for the stopwatch app.
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    If you run this code, you should see something like the following:
     
     stopwatch01.py \u2b58StopwatchApp \u00a0D\u00a0\u00a0Toggle\u00a0dark\u00a0mode\u00a0 
     
    Hit the D key to toggle between light and dark mode.
     
     stopwatch01.py \u2b58StopwatchApp \u00a0D\u00a0\u00a0Toggle\u00a0dark\u00a0mode\u00a0 
     
    Hit Ctrl+C to exit the app and return to the command prompt.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#a-closer-look-at-the-app-class","title":"A closer look at the App class","text":"
    Let's examine stopwatch01.py in more detail.
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The first line imports the Textual App class, which we will use as the base class for our App. The second line imports two builtin widgets: Footer which shows a bar at the bottom of the screen with bound keys, and Header which shows a title at the top of the screen. Widgets are re-usable components responsible for managing a part of the screen. We will cover how to build widgets in this tutorial.
     
    The following lines define the app itself:
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The App class is where most of the logic of Textual apps is written. It is responsible for loading configuration, setting up widgets, handling keys, and more.
     
    Here's what the above app defines:
     
       
    •  
      BINDINGS is a list of tuples that maps (or binds) keys to actions in your app. The first value in the tuple is the key; the second value is the name of the action; the final value is a short description. We have a single binding which maps the D key on to the \"toggle_dark\" action. See key bindings in the guide for details.
       
      •  
    •  
      compose() is where we construct a user interface with widgets. The compose() method may return a list of widgets, but it is generally easier to yield them (making this method a generator). In the example code we yield an instance of each of the widget classes we imported, i.e. Header() and Footer().
       
      •  
    •  
      action_toggle_dark() defines an action method. Actions are methods beginning with action_ followed by the name of the action. The BINDINGS list above tells Textual to run this action when the user hits the D key. See actions in the guide for details.
       
      •  
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The final three lines create an instance of the app and calls the run() method which puts your terminal in to application mode and runs the app until you exit with Ctrl+C. This happens within a __name__ == \"__main__\" block so we could run the app with python stopwatch01.py or import it as part of a larger project.

    Textual comes with a number of builtin widgets, like Header and Footer, which are versatile and re-usable. We will need to build some custom widgets for the stopwatch. Before we dive in to that, let's first sketch a design for the app \u2014 so we know what we're aiming for.

    We need a Stopwatch widget composed of the following child widgets:
     
       
    • A \"Start\" button
      •  
    • A \"Stop\" button
      •  
    • A \"Reset\" button
      •  
    • A time display
      •  
     
    Textual has a builtin Button widget which takes care of the first three components. All we need to build is the time display widget which will show the elapsed time and the stopwatch widget itself.
     
    Let's add those to the app. Just a skeleton for now, we will add the rest of the features as we go.
     stopwatch02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import ScrollableContainer\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nclass Stopwatch(Static):\n\"\"\"A stopwatch widget.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets of a stopwatch.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Start\", id=\"start\", variant=\"success\")\nyield Button(\"Stop\", id=\"stop\", variant=\"error\")\nyield Button(\"Reset\", id=\"reset\")\nyield TimeDisplay(\"00:00:00.00\")\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield ScrollableContainer(Stopwatch(), Stopwatch(), Stopwatch())\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    We've imported two new widgets in this code: Button, which creates a clickable button, and Static which is a base class for a simple control. We've also imported ScrollableContainer from textual.containers which (as the name suggests) is a Widget which contains other widgets.
     
    We've defined an empty TimeDisplay widget by extending Static. We will flesh this out later.
     
    The Stopwatch widget class also extends Static. This class has a compose() method which yields child widgets, consisting of three Button objects and a single TimeDisplay object. These widgets will form the stopwatch in our sketch.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#the-buttons","title":"The buttons","text":"
    The Button constructor takes a label to be displayed in the button (\"Start\", \"Stop\", or \"Reset\"). Additionally, some of the buttons set the following parameters:
     
       
    • id is an identifier we can use to tell the buttons apart in code and apply styles. More on that later.
      •  
    • variant is a string which selects a default style. The \"success\" variant makes the button green, and the \"error\" variant makes it red.
      •  
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#composing-the-widgets","title":"Composing the widgets","text":"
    To add widgets to our application we first need to yield them from the app's compose() method:
     
    The new line in StopwatchApp.compose() yields a single ScrollableContainer object which will create a scrolling list of stopwatches. When classes contain other widgets (like ScrollableContainer) they will typically accept their child widgets as positional arguments. We want to start the app with three stopwatches, so we construct three Stopwatch instances and pass them to the container's constructor.

    The elements of the stopwatch application are there. The buttons are clickable and you can scroll the container but it doesn't look like the sketch. This is because we have yet to apply any styles to our new widgets.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#writing-textual-css","title":"Writing Textual CSS","text":"
    Every widget has a styles object with a number of attributes that impact how the widget will appear. Here's how you might set white text and a blue background for a widget:
     
    self.styles.background = \"blue\"\nself.styles.color = \"white\"\n
     
    While it's possible to set all styles for an app this way, it is rarely necessary. Textual has support for CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), a technology used by web browsers. CSS files are data files loaded by your app which contain information about styles to apply to your widgets.
     
    Info
     
    The dialect of CSS used in Textual is greatly simplified over web based CSS and much easier to learn.
     
    CSS makes it easy to iterate on the design of your app and enables live-editing \u2014 you can edit CSS and see the changes without restarting the app!
     
    Let's add a CSS file to our application.
     stopwatch03.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import ScrollableContainer\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nclass Stopwatch(Static):\n\"\"\"A stopwatch widget.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets of a stopwatch.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Start\", id=\"start\", variant=\"success\")\nyield Button(\"Stop\", id=\"stop\", variant=\"error\")\nyield Button(\"Reset\", id=\"reset\")\nyield TimeDisplay(\"00:00:00.00\")\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"stopwatch03.tcss\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield ScrollableContainer(Stopwatch(), Stopwatch(), Stopwatch())\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Adding the CSS_PATH class variable tells Textual to load the following file when the app starts:
     stopwatch03.tcss

    This app looks much more like our sketch. Let's look at how Textual uses stopwatch03.tcss to apply styles.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#css-basics","title":"CSS basics","text":"
    CSS files contain a number of declaration blocks. Here's the first such block from stopwatch03.tcss again:
     
    Stopwatch {\nlayout: horizontal;\nbackground: $boost;\nheight: 5;\nmargin: 1;\nmin-width: 50;\npadding: 1;\n}\n
     
    The first line tells Textual that the styles should apply to the Stopwatch widget. The lines between the curly brackets contain the styles themselves.
     
    Here's how this CSS code changes how the Stopwatch widget is displayed.

    • layout: horizontal aligns child widgets horizontally from left to right.
      •  
    • background: $boost sets the background color to $boost. The $ prefix picks a pre-defined color from the builtin theme. There are other ways to specify colors such as \"blue\" or rgb(20,46,210).
      •  
    • height: 5 sets the height of our widget to 5 lines of text.
      •  
    • margin: 1 sets a margin of 1 cell around the Stopwatch widget to create a little space between widgets in the list.
      •  
    • min-width: 50 sets the minimum width of our widget to 50 cells.
      •  
    • padding: 1 sets a padding of 1 cell around the child widgets.
      •  
     
    Here's the rest of stopwatch03.tcss which contains further declaration blocks:
     
    TimeDisplay {\ncontent-align: center middle;\nopacity: 60%;\nheight: 3;\n}\nButton {\nwidth: 16;\n}\n#start {\ndock: left;\n}\n#stop {\ndock: left;\ndisplay: none;\n}\n#reset {\ndock: right;\n}\n
     
    The TimeDisplay block aligns text to the center (content-align), fades it slightly (opacity), and sets its height (height) to 3 lines.
     
    The Button block sets the width (width) of buttons to 16 cells (character widths).
     
    The last 3 blocks have a slightly different format. When the declaration begins with a # then the styles will be applied to widgets with a matching \"id\" attribute. We've set an ID on the Button widgets we yielded in compose. For instance the first button has id=\"start\" which matches #start in the CSS.
     
    The buttons have a dock style which aligns the widget to a given edge. The start and stop buttons are docked to the left edge, while the reset button is docked to the right edge.
     
    You may have noticed that the stop button (#stop in the CSS) has display: none;. This tells Textual to not show the button. We do this because we don't want to display the stop button when the timer is not running. Similarly, we don't want to show the start button when the timer is running. We will cover how to manage such dynamic user interfaces in the next section.

    We can accomplish this with a CSS class. Not to be confused with a Python class, a CSS class is like a tag you can add to a widget to modify its styles.
     
    Here's the new CSS:
     stopwatch04.tcss
    Stopwatch {\nlayout: horizontal;\nbackground: $boost;\nheight: 5;\nmargin: 1;\nmin-width: 50;\npadding: 1;\n}\nTimeDisplay {\ncontent-align: center middle;\ntext-opacity: 60%;\nheight: 3;\n}\nButton {\nwidth: 16;\n}\n#start {\ndock: left;\n}\n#stop {\ndock: left;\ndisplay: none;\n}\n#reset {\ndock: right;\n}\n.started {\ntext-style: bold;\nbackground: $success;\ncolor: $text;\n}\n.started TimeDisplay {\ntext-opacity: 100%;\n}\n.started #start {\ndisplay: none\n}\n.started #stop {\ndisplay: block\n}\n.started #reset {\nvisibility: hidden\n}\n
     
    These new rules are prefixed with .started. The . indicates that .started refers to a CSS class called \"started\". The new styles will be applied only to widgets that have this CSS class.
     
    Some of the new styles have more than one selector separated by a space. The space indicates that the rule should match the second selector if it is a child of the first. Let's look at one of these styles:
     
    .started #start {\ndisplay: none\n}\n
     
    The .started selector matches any widget with a \"started\" CSS class. While #start matches a child widget with an ID of \"start\". So it matches the Start button only for Stopwatches in a started state.
     
    The rule is \"display: none\" which tells Textual to hide the button.

    Modifying a widget's CSS classes is a convenient way to update visuals without introducing a lot of messy display related code.
     
    You can add and remove CSS classes with the add_class() and remove_class() methods. We will use these methods to connect the started state to the Start / Stop buttons.
     
    The following code will start or stop the stopwatches in response to clicking a button.
     stopwatch04.py

    The on_button_pressed method is an event handler. Event handlers are methods called by Textual in response to an event such as a key press, mouse click, etc. Event handlers begin with on_ followed by the name of the event they will handle. Hence on_button_pressed will handle the button pressed event.
     
    If you run stopwatch04.py now you will be able to toggle between the two states by clicking the first button:

    A recurring theme in Textual is that you rarely need to explicitly update a widget. It is possible: you can call refresh() to display new data. However, Textual prefers to do this automatically via reactive attributes.
     
    You can declare a reactive attribute with reactive. Let's use this feature to create a timer that displays elapsed time and keeps it updated.
     stopwatch05.py
    from time import monotonic\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import ScrollableContainer\nfrom textual.reactive import reactive\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nstart_time = reactive(monotonic)\ntime = reactive(0.0)\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when widget is added to the app.\"\"\"\nself.set_interval(1 / 60, self.update_time)\ndef update_time(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Method to update the time to the current time.\"\"\"\nself.time = monotonic() - self.start_time\ndef watch_time(self, time: float) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the time attribute changes.\"\"\"\nminutes, seconds = divmod(time, 60)\nhours, minutes = divmod(minutes, 60)\nself.update(f\"{hours:02,.0f}:{minutes:02.0f}:{seconds:05.2f}\")\nclass Stopwatch(Static):\n\"\"\"A stopwatch widget.\"\"\"\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when a button is pressed.\"\"\"\nif event.button.id == \"start\":\nself.add_class(\"started\")\nelif event.button.id == \"stop\":\nself.remove_class(\"started\")\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets of a stopwatch.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Start\", id=\"start\", variant=\"success\")\nyield Button(\"Stop\", id=\"stop\", variant=\"error\")\nyield Button(\"Reset\", id=\"reset\")\nyield TimeDisplay()\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"stopwatch04.tcss\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield ScrollableContainer(Stopwatch(), Stopwatch(), Stopwatch())\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    We have added two reactive attributes to the TimeDisplay widget: start_time will contain the time (in seconds) the stopwatch was started, and time will contain the time to be displayed on the Stopwatch.
     
    Both attributes will be available on self as if you had assigned them in __init__. If you write to either of these attributes the widget will update automatically.
     
    Info
     
    The monotonic function in this example is imported from the standard library time module. It is similar to time.time but won't go backwards if the system clock is changed.
     
    The first argument to reactive may be a default value for the attribute or a callable that returns a default value. We set the default for start_time to the monotonic function which will be called to initialize the attribute with the current time when the TimeDisplay is added to the app. The time attribute has a simple float as the default, so self.time will be initialized to 0.
     
    The on_mount method is an event handler called when the widget is first added to the application (or mounted in Textual terminology). In this method we call set_interval() to create a timer which calls self.update_time sixty times a second. This update_time method calculates the time elapsed since the widget started and assigns it to self.time \u2014 which brings us to one of Reactive's super-powers.
     
    If you implement a method that begins with watch_ followed by the name of a reactive attribute, then the method will be called when the attribute is modified. Such methods are known as watch methods.
     
    Because watch_time watches the time attribute, when we update self.time 60 times a second we also implicitly call watch_time which converts the elapsed time to a string and updates the widget with a call to self.update. Because this happens automatically, we don't need to pass in an initial argument to TimeDisplay.
     
    The end result is that the Stopwatch widgets show the time elapsed since the widget was created:

    Here's a summary of the changes made to TimeDisplay.
     
       
    • We've added a total reactive attribute to store the total time elapsed between clicking the start and stop buttons.
      •  
    • The call to set_interval has grown a pause=True argument which starts the timer in pause mode (when a timer is paused it won't run until resume() is called). This is because we don't want the time to update until the user hits the start button.
      •  
    • The update_time method now adds total to the current time to account for the time between any previous clicks of the start and stop buttons.
      •  
    • We've stored the result of set_interval which returns a Timer object. We will use this later to resume the timer when we start the Stopwatch.
      •  
    • We've added start(), stop(), and reset() methods.
      •  
     
    In addition, the on_button_pressed method on Stopwatch has grown some code to manage the time display when the user clicks a button. Let's look at that in detail:
     
        def on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when a button is pressed.\"\"\"\nbutton_id = event.button.id\ntime_display = self.query_one(TimeDisplay)\nif button_id == \"start\":\ntime_display.start()\nself.add_class(\"started\")\nelif button_id == \"stop\":\ntime_display.stop()\nself.remove_class(\"started\")\nelif button_id == \"reset\":\ntime_display.reset()\n
     
    This code supplies missing features and makes our app useful. We've made the following changes.
     
       
    • The first line retrieves id attribute of the button that was pressed. We can use this to decide what to do in response.
      •  
    • The second line calls query_one to get a reference to the TimeDisplay widget.
      •  
    • We call the method on TimeDisplay that matches the pressed button.
      •  
    • We add the \"started\" class when the Stopwatch is started (self.add_class(\"started\")), and remove it (self.remove_class(\"started\")) when it is stopped. This will update the Stopwatch visuals via CSS.
      •  
     
    If you run stopwatch06.py you will be able to use the stopwatches independently.

    The only remaining feature of the Stopwatch app left to implement is the ability to add and remove stopwatches.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#dynamic-widgets","title":"Dynamic widgets","text":"
    The Stopwatch app creates widgets when it starts via the compose method. We will also need to create new widgets while the app is running, and remove widgets we no longer need. We can do this by calling mount() to add a widget, and remove() to remove a widget.
     
    Let's use these methods to implement adding and removing stopwatches to our app.

    Here's a summary of the changes:
     
       
    • The ScrollableContainer object in StopWatchApp grew a \"timers\" ID.
      •  
    • Added action_add_stopwatch to add a new stopwatch.
      •  
    • Added action_remove_stopwatch to remove a stopwatch.
      •  
    • Added keybindings for the actions.
      •  
     
    The action_add_stopwatch method creates and mounts a new stopwatch. Note the call to query_one() with a CSS selector of \"#timers\" which gets the timer's container via its ID. Once mounted, the new Stopwatch will appear in the terminal. That last line in action_add_stopwatch calls scroll_visible() which will scroll the container to make the new Stopwatch visible (if required).
     
    The action_remove_stopwatch function calls query() with a CSS selector of \"Stopwatch\" which gets all the Stopwatch widgets. If there are stopwatches then the action calls last() to get the last stopwatch, and remove() to remove it.
     
    If you run stopwatch.py now you can add a new stopwatch with the A key and remove a stopwatch with R.

    To implement your own Validator, subclass this class.

    A (reasonable) criticism of async is that it tends to proliferate in your code. In order to await something, your functions must be async all the way up the call-stack. This tends to result in you making things async just to support that one call that needs it or, worse, adding async just-in-case. Given that going from def to async def is a breaking change there is a strong incentive to go straight there.
     
    Before you know it, you have adopted a policy of \"async all the things\".
     
    Textual is an async framework, but doesn't require the app developer to use the async and await keywords (but you can if you need to). This post is about how Textual accomplishes this async-agnosticism.

    But first, an apology! In a previous post I said Textual \"doesn't do any IO of its own\". This is not accurate. Textual responds to keys and mouse events (Input) and writes content to the terminal (Output).
     
    Although Textual clearly does do IO, it uses asyncio mainly for concurrency. It allows each widget to update its part of the screen independently from the rest of the app.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/03/15/no-async-async-with-python/#await-me-maybe","title":"Await me (maybe)","text":"
    The first no-async async technique is the \"Await me maybe\" pattern, a term first coined by Simon Willison. This is particularly applicable to callbacks (or in Textual terms, message handlers).
     
    The await_me_maybe function below can run a callback that is either a plain old function or a coroutine (async def). It does this by awaiting the result of the callback if it is awaitable, or simply returning the result if it is not.
     
    import asyncio\nimport inspect\ndef plain_old_function():\nreturn \"Plain old function\"\nasync def async_function():\nreturn \"Async function\"\nasync def await_me_maybe(callback):\nresult = callback()\nif inspect.isawaitable(result):\nreturn await result\nreturn result\nasync def run_framework():\nprint(\nawait await_me_maybe(plain_old_function)\n)\nprint(\nawait await_me_maybe(async_function)\n)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nasyncio.run(run_framework())\n
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/03/15/no-async-async-with-python/#optionally-awaitable","title":"Optionally awaitable","text":"
    The \"await me maybe\" pattern is great when an async framework calls the app's code. The app developer can choose to write async code or not. Things get a little more complicated when the app wants to call the framework's API. If the API has asynced all the things, then it would force the app to do the same.
     
    Textual's API consists of regular methods for the most part, but there are a few methods which are optionally awaitable. These are not coroutines (which must be awaited to do anything).
     
    In practice, this means that those API calls initiate something which will complete a short time later. If you discard the return value then it won't prevent it from working. You only need to await if you want to know when it has finished.
     
    The mount method is one such method. Calling it will add a widget to the screen:
     
    def on_key(self):\n# Add MyWidget to the screen\nself.mount(MyWidget(\"Hello, World!\"))\n
     
    In this example we don't care that the widget hasn't been mounted immediately, only that it will be soon.
     
    Note
     
    Textual awaits the result of mount after the message handler, so even if you don't explicitly await it, it will have been completed by the time the next message handler runs.
     
    We might care if we want to mount a widget then make some changes to it. By making the handler async and awaiting the result of mount, we can be sure that the widget has been initialized before we update it:
     
    async def on_key(self):\n# Add MyWidget to the screen\nawait self.mount(MyWidget(\"Hello, World!\"))\n# add a border\nself.query_one(MyWidget).styles.border = (\"heavy\", \"red\")\n
     
    Incidentally, I found there were very few examples of writing awaitable objects in Python. So here is the code for AwaitMount which is returned by the mount method:
     
    class AwaitMount:\n\"\"\"An awaitable returned by mount() and mount_all().\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, parent: Widget, widgets: Sequence[Widget]) -> None:\nself._parent = parent\nself._widgets = widgets\nasync def __call__(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Allows awaiting via a call operation.\"\"\"\nawait self\ndef __await__(self) -> Generator[None, None, None]:\nasync def await_mount() -> None:\nif self._widgets:\naws = [\ncreate_task(widget._mounted_event.wait(), name=\"await mount\")\nfor widget in self._widgets\n]\nif aws:\nawait wait(aws)\nself._parent.refresh(layout=True)\nreturn await_mount().__await__()\n

    Textual did initially \"async all the things\", which you might see if you find some old Textual code. Now async is optional.
     
    This is not because I dislike async. I'm a fan! But it does place a small burden on the developer (more to type and think about). With the current API you generally don't need to write coroutines, or remember to await things. But async is there if you need it.
     
    We're finding that Textual is increasingly becoming a UI to things which are naturally concurrent, so async was a good move. Concurrency can be a tricky subject, so we're planning some API magic to take the pain out of running tasks, threads, and processes. Stay tuned!

    Ahh, yes, about that... So one of the handy things I'm finding about Textual is its key binding system. The more I build Textual apps, the more I appreciate the bindings, how they can be associated with specific widgets, the use of actions (which can be used from other places too), etc.
     
    But... (there's always a \"but\" right -- I mean, there'd be no blog post to be had here otherwise).
     
    The terminal doesn't have access to all the key combinations you may want to use, and also, because some keys can't necessarily be \"typed\", at least not easily (think about it: there's no F1 character, you have to type F1), many keys and key combinations need to be bound with specific names.
     
    So there's two problems here: how do I discover what keys even turn up in my application, and when they do, what should I call them when I pass them to Binding?
     
    That felt like a \"well Dave just build an app for it!\" problem. So I did:
     
    If you're building apps with Textual and you want to discover what keys turn up from your terminal and are available to your application, you can:
     
    $ pipx install textual-keys\n
     
    and then just run textual-keys and start mashing the keyboard to find out.
     
    There's a good chance that this app, or at least a version of it, will make it into Textual itself (very likely as one of the devtools). But for now it's just an easy install away.
     
    I think there's a call to be made here too: have you built anything to help speed up how you work with Textual, or just make the development experience \"just so\"? If so, do let us know, and come yell about it on the #show-and-tell channel in our Discord server.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/12/30/a-better-asyncio-sleep-for-windows-to-fix-animation/","title":"A better asyncio sleep for Windows to fix animation","text":"
    I spent some time optimizing Textual on Windows recently, and discovered something which may be of interest to anyone working with async code on that platform.
     
    Animation, scrolling, and fading had always been unsatisfactory on Windows. Textual was usable, but the lag when scrolling made apps feel far less snappy that other platforms. On macOS and Linux, scrolling is fast enough that it feels close to a native app, not something running in a terminal. Yet the Windows experience never improved, even as Textual got faster with each release.
     
    I had chalked this up to Windows Terminal being slow to render updates. After all, the classic Windows terminal was (and still is) glacially slow. Perhaps Microsoft just weren't focusing on performance.
     
    In retrospect, that was highly improbable. Like all modern terminals, Windows Terminal uses the GPU to render updates. Even without focussing on performance, it should be fast.
     
    I figured I'd give it one last attempt to speed up Textual on Windows. If I failed, Windows would forever be a third-class platform for Textual apps.
     
    It turned out that it was nothing to do with performance, per se. The issue was with a single asyncio function: asyncio.sleep.
     
    Textual has a Timer class which creates events at regular intervals. It powers the JS-like set_interval and set_timer functions. It is also used internally to do animation (such as smooth scrolling). This Timer class calls asyncio.sleep to wait the time between one event and the next.
     
    On macOS and Linux, calling asynco.sleep is fairly accurate. If you call sleep(3.14), it will return within 1% of 3.14 seconds. This is not the case for Windows, which for historical reasons uses a timer with a granularity of 15 milliseconds. The upshot is that sleep times will be rounded up to the nearest multiple of 15 milliseconds.
     
    This limit appears to hold true for all async primitives on Windows. If you wait for something with a timeout, it will return on a multiple of 15 milliseconds. Fortunately there is work in the CPython pipeline to make this more accurate. Thanks to Steve Dower for pointing this out.
     
    This lack of accuracy in the timer meant that timer events were created at a far slower rate than intended. Animation was slower because Textual was waiting too long between updates.
     
    Once I had figured that out, I needed an alternative to asyncio.sleep for Textual's Timer class. And I found one. The following version of sleep is accurate to well within 1%:
     
    from time import sleep as time_sleep\nfrom asyncio import get_running_loop\nasync def sleep(sleep_for: float) -> None:\n\"\"\"An asyncio sleep.\n    On Windows this achieves a better granularity than asyncio.sleep\n    Args:\n        sleep_for (float): Seconds to sleep for.\n    \"\"\"    \nawait get_running_loop().run_in_executor(None, time_sleep, sleep_for)\n
     
    That is a drop-in replacement for sleep on Windows. With it, Textual runs a lot smoother. Easily on par with macOS and Linux.
     
    It's not quite perfect. There is a little tearing during full \"screen\" updates, but performance is decent all round. I suspect when this bug is fixed (big thanks to Paul Moore for looking in to that), and Microsoft implements this protocol then Textual on Windows will be A+.
     
    This Windows improvement will be in v0.9.0 of Textual, which will be released in a few days.

    I'm taking a brief break from blogging about Textual to bring you this brief PSA for Python developers who work with async code. I wanted to expand a little on this tweet.
     
    If you have ever used asyncio.create_task you may have created a bug for yourself that is challenging (read almost impossible) to reproduce. If it occurs, your code will likely fail in unpredictable ways.
     
    The root cause of this Heisenbug is that if you don't hold a reference to the task object returned by create_task then the task may disappear without warning when Python runs garbage collection. In other words, the code in your task will stop running with no obvious indication why.
     
    This behavior is well documented, as you can see from this excerpt (emphasis mine):
     
     
    But who reads all the docs? And who has perfect recall if they do? A search on GitHub indicates that there are a lot of projects where this bug is waiting for just the right moment to ruin somebody's day.
     
    I suspect the reason this mistake is so common is that tasks are a lot like threads (conceptually at least). With threads you can just launch them and forget. Unless you mark them as \"daemon\" threads they will exist for the lifetime of your app. Not so with Tasks.
     
    The solution recommended in the docs is to keep a reference to the task for as long as you need it to live. On modern Python you could use TaskGroups which will keep references to your tasks. As long as all the tasks you spin up are in TaskGroups, you should be fine.

    Every widget in Textual, be it a button, tree view, or a text input, runs an asyncio task. There is even a task for scrollbar corners (the little space formed when horizontal and vertical scrollbars meet).
     
    Info
     
    It may be IO that gives AsyncIO its name, but Textual doesn't do any IO of its own. Those tasks are used to power message queues, so that widgets (UI components) can do whatever they do at their own pace.
     
    Its fair to say that Textual apps launch a lot of tasks. Which is why when I was trying to optimize startup (for apps with 1000s of widgets) I suspected it was task related.
     
    I needed to know how much of an overhead it was to launch tasks. Tasks are lighter weight than threads, but how much lighter? The only way to know for certain was to profile.
     
    The following code launches a load of do nothing tasks, then waits for them to shut down. This would give me an idea of how performant create_task is, and also a baseline for optimizations. I would know the absolute limit of any optimizations I make.
     
    from asyncio import create_task, wait, run\nfrom time import process_time as time\nasync def time_tasks(count=100) -> float:\n\"\"\"Time creating and destroying tasks.\"\"\"\nasync def nop_task() -> None:\n\"\"\"Do nothing task.\"\"\"\npass\nstart = time()\ntasks = [create_task(nop_task()) for _ in range(count)]\nawait wait(tasks)\nelapsed = time() - start\nreturn elapsed\nfor count in range(100_000, 1000_000 + 1, 100_000):\ncreate_time = run(time_tasks(count))\ncreate_per_second = 1 / (create_time / count)\nprint(f\"{count:,} tasks \\t {create_per_second:0,.0f} tasks per/s\")\n
     
    And here is the output:
     
    100,000 tasks    280,003 tasks per/s\n200,000 tasks    255,275 tasks per/s\n300,000 tasks    248,713 tasks per/s\n400,000 tasks    248,383 tasks per/s\n500,000 tasks    241,624 tasks per/s\n600,000 tasks    260,660 tasks per/s\n700,000 tasks    244,510 tasks per/s\n800,000 tasks    247,455 tasks per/s\n900,000 tasks    242,744 tasks per/s\n1,000,000 tasks          259,715 tasks per/s\n
     
    Info
     
    Running on an M1 MacBook Pro.
     
    This tells me I can create, run, and shutdown 260K tasks per second.
     
    That's fast.
     
    Clearly create_task is as close as you get to free in the Python world, and I would need to look elsewhere for optimizations. Turns out Textual spends far more time processing CSS rules than creating tasks (obvious in retrospect). I've noticed some big wins there, so the next version of Textual will be faster to start apps with a metric tonne of widgets.
     
    But I still need to know what to do with those scrollbar corners. A task for two characters. I don't even...

    By creating a new layer above all others and assigning a widget to that layer, we can ensure that widget is painted above everything else.

    The exact characters that form the bar are \"\u257a\", \"\u2501\" and \"\u2578\". When the bar sits perfectly within cell boundaries, every character is \u201c\u2501\u201d.

    One of the great features we added to Rich this year was the ability to export console contents to an SVG. This feature was later exposed to Textual, allowing users to capture screenshots of their running Textual apps. Ultimately, I ended up creating a tool for snapshot testing in the Textual codebase.
     
    Snapshot testing is used to ensure that Textual output doesn\u2019t unexpectedly change. On disk, we store what we expect the output to look like. Then, when we run our unit tests, we get immediately alerted if the output has changed.
     
    This essentially automates the process of manually spinning up several apps and inspecting them for unexpected visual changes. It\u2019s great for catching subtle regressions!
     
    In Textual, each CSS property has its own canonical example and an associated snapshot test. If we accidentally break a property in a way that affects the visual output, the chances of it sneaking into a release are greatly reduced, because the corresponding snapshot test will fail.
     
    As part of this work, I built a web interface for comparing snapshots with test output. There\u2019s even a little toggle which highlights the differences, since they\u2019re sometimes rather subtle.
     
    Since the terminal output shown in the video above is just an SVG image, I was able to add the \"Show difference\" functionality by overlaying the two images and applying a single CSS property: mix-blend-mode: difference;.
     
    The snapshot testing functionality itself is implemented as a pytest plugin, and it builds on top of a snapshot testing framework called syrupy.
     
     
    It's quite likely that this will eventually be exposed to end-users of Textual.

    It\u2019s particularly good for displaying simple pixel art images. The SVG image below is also a good example of the SVG export functionality I touched on earlier.
     Rich 
    Since the library generates an object which is renderable using Rich, these can easily be embedded inside Textual applications.
     
    Here's an example of that in a scrapped \"Pok\u00e9dex\" app I threw together:
     
    This is a rather naive approach to the problem... but I did it for fun!
     
    Other methods for displaying images in the terminal include:
     
       
    • A more advanced library like chafa, which uses a range of Unicode characters to achieve a more accurate representation of the image.
      •  
    • One of the available terminal image protocols, such as Sixel, Kitty\u2019s Terminal Graphics Protocol, and iTerm Inline Images Protocol.
      •

    Welcome to the first post on the Textual blog.
     
    I plan on using this as a place to make announcements regarding new releases of Textual, and any other relevant news.
     
    The first piece of news is that we've reorganized this site a little. The Events, Styles, and Widgets references are now under \"Reference\", and what used to be under \"Reference\" is now \"API\" which contains API-level documentation. I hope that's a little clearer than it used to be!

    As of the time of writing, I'm a couple or so days off having been with Textualize for 3 months. It's been fun, and educational, and every bit as engaging as I'd hoped, and more. One thing I hadn't quite prepared for though, but which I really love, is how so many other people are learning Textual along with me.
     
    Even in those three months the library has changed and expanded quite a lot, and it continues to do so. Meanwhile, more people are turning up and using the framework; you can see this online in social media, blogs and of course in the ever-growing list of projects on GitHub which depend on Textual.
     
    This inevitably means there's a lot of people getting to grips with a new tool, and one that is still a bit of a moving target. This in turn means lots of people are coming to us to get help.
     
    As I've watched this happen I've noticed a few patterns emerging. Some of these good or neutral, some... let's just say not really beneficial to those seeking the help, or to those trying to provide the help. So I wanted to write a little bit about the different ways you can get help with Textual and your Textual-based projects, and to also try and encourage people to take the most helpful and positive approach to getting that help.
     
    Now, before I go on, I want to make something very clear: I'm writing this as an individual. This is my own personal view, and my own advice from me to anyone who wishes to take it. It's not Textual (the project) or Textualize (the company) policy, rules or guidelines. This is just some ageing hacker's take on how best to go about asking for help, informed by years of asking for and also providing help in email, on Usenet, on forums, etc.
     
    Or, put another way: if what you read in here seems sensible to you, I figure we'll likely have already hit it off over on GitHub or in the Discord server. ;-)

    At this point this is almost a bit of an FAQ itself, so I thought I'd address it here: where's the best place to ask for help about Textual, and what's the difference between GitHub Issues, Discussions and our Discord server?
     
    I'd suggest thinking of them like this:
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/01/09/so-youre-looking-for-a-wee-bit-of-textual-help/#discord","title":"Discord","text":"
    You have a question, or need help with something, and perhaps you could do with a reply as soon as possible. But, and this is the really important part, it doesn't matter if you don't get a response. If you're in this situation then the Discord server is possibly a good place to start. If you're lucky someone will be hanging about who can help out.
     
    I can't speak for anyone else, but keep this in mind: when I look in on Discord I tend not to go scrolling back much to see if anything has been missed. If something catches my eye, I'll try and reply, but if it doesn't... well, it's mostly an instant chat thing so I don't dive too deeply back in time.
     
    Going from Discord to a GitHub issue
     
    As a slight aside here: sometimes people will pop up in Discord, ask a question about something that turns out looking like a bug, and that's the last we hear of it. Please, please, please, if this happens, the most helpful thing you can do is go raise an issue for us. It'll help us to keep track of problems, it'll help get your problem fixed, it'll mean everyone benefits.
     
    My own advice would be to treat Discord as an ephemeral resource. It happens in the moment but fades away pretty quickly. It's like knocking on a friend's door to see if they're in. If they're not in, you might leave them a note, which is sort of like going to...
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/01/09/so-youre-looking-for-a-wee-bit-of-textual-help/#github","title":"GitHub","text":"
    On the other hand, if you have a question or need some help or something where you want to stand a good chance of the Textual developers (amongst others) seeing it and responding, I'd recommend that GitHub is the place to go. Dropping something into the discussions there, or leaving an issue, ensures it'll get seen. It won't get lost.
     
    As for which you should use -- a discussion or an issue -- I'd suggest this: if you need help with something, or you want to check your understanding of something, or you just want to be sure something is a problem before taking it further, a discussion might be the best thing. On the other hand, if you've got a clear bug or feature request on your hands, an issue makes a lot of sense.
     
    Don't worry if you're not sure which camp your question or whatever falls into though; go with what you think is right. There's no harm done either way (I may move an issue to a discussion first before replying, if it's really just a request for help -- but that's mostly so everyone can benefit from finding it in the right place later on down the line).

    Now on to the fun part. This is where I get a bit preachy. Ish. Kinda. A little bit. Again, please remember, this isn't a set of rules, this isn't a set of official guidelines, this is just a bunch of \"if you want my advice, and I know you didn't ask but you've read this far so you actually sort of did don't say I didn't warn you!\" waffle.
     
    This isn't going to be an exhaustive collection, far from it. But I feel these are some important highlights.

    When looking for help, in any of the locations mentioned above, I'd totally encourage:

    Too much detail is almost always way better than not enough. \"My program didn't run\", often even with some of the code supplied, is so much harder to help than \"I ran this code I'm posting here, and I expected this particular outcome, and I expected it because I'd read this particular thing in the docs and had comprehended it to mean this, but instead the outcome was this exception here, and I'm a bit stuck -- can someone offer some pointers?\"
     
    The former approach means there often ends up having to be a back and forth which can last a long time, and which can sometimes be frustrating for the person asking. Manage frustration: be clear, tell us everything you can.

    If you've read the potions of the documentation that relate to what you're trying to do, it's going to be really helpful if you say so. If you don't, it might be assumed you haven't and you may end up being pointed at them.
     
    So, please, if you've checked the documentation, looked in the FAQ, done a search of past issues or discussions or perhaps even done a search on the Discord server... please say so.

    This one can go a long way when looking for help. Look, I get it, programming is bloody frustrating at times. We've all rage-quit some code at some point, I'm sure. It's likely going to be your moment of greatest frustration when you go looking for help. But if you turn up looking for help acting all grumpy and stuff it's not going to come over well. Folk are less likely to be motivated to lend a hand to someone who seems rather annoyed.
     
    If you throw in a please and thank-you here and there that makes it all the better.

    You could find yourself getting a reply that you're sure won't help at all. That's fair. But be sure to fully consider it first. Perhaps you missed the obvious along the way and this is 100% the course correction you'd unknowingly come looking for in the first place. Sure, the person replying might have totally misunderstood what was being asked, or might be giving a wrong answer (it me! I've totally done that and will again!), but even then a reply along the lines of \"I'm not sure that's what I'm looking for, because...\" gets everyone to the solution faster than \"lol nah\".

    Aye, I get it, being asked questions when you're looking for an answer can be a bit frustrating. But if you find yourself on the receiving end of a small series of questions about your question, keep this in mind: Textual is still rather new and still developing and it's possible that what you're trying to do isn't the correct way to do that thing. To the person looking to help you it may seem to them you have an XY problem.
     
    Entertaining those questions might just get you to the real solution to your problem.

    You don't need me to tell you that a project such as Textual has a global audience. With that rather obvious fact comes the other fact that we don't all share the same first language. So, please, as much as possible, try and allow for that. If someone is trying to help you out, and they make it clear they're struggling to follow you, keep this in mind.

    I suppose this is a variation on \"be polite\" (really, a thanks can go a long way), but there's more to this than a friendly acknowledgement. If someone has gone to the trouble of offering some help, it's helpful to everyone who comes after you to acknowledge if it worked or not. That way a future help-seeker will know if the answer they're reading stands a chance of being the right one.

    Of course the aim is to have every release of Textual be stable and useful, but things will break. So, please, do keep in mind things like:
     
       
    • Textual likely doesn't have your feature of choice just yet.
      •  
    • We might accidentally break something (perhaps pinning Textual and testing   each release is a good plan here?).
      •  
    • We might deliberately break something because we've decided to take a   particular feature or way of doing things in a better direction.

    Of course it can be a bit frustrating a times, but overall the aim is to have the best framework possible in the long run.

    Sure, it can be annoying. You're in your flow, you've got a neat idea for a thing you want to build, you're stuck on one particular thing and you really need help right now!

Badgering individuals, or a whole resource, to reply right now, or complaining that it's been $TIME_PERIOD since you asked and nobody has replied... that's just going to make people less likely to reply.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/01/09/so-youre-looking-for-a-wee-bit-of-textual-help/#unnecessarily-tag-individuals","title":"Unnecessarily tag individuals","text":"
    This one often goes hand in hand with the \"lack patience\" thing: Be it asking on Discord, or in GitHub issues, discussions or even PRs, unnecessarily tagging individuals is a bit rude. Speaking for myself and only myself: I love helping folk with Textual. If I could help everyone all the time the moment they have a problem, I would. But it doesn't work like that. There's any number of reasons I might not be responding to a particular request, including but not limited to (here I'm talking personally because I don't want to speak for anyone else, but I'm sure I'm not alone here):
     
       
    • I have a job. Sure, my job is (in part) Textual, but there's more to it   than that particular issue. I might be doing other stuff.
      •  
    • I have my own projects to work on too. I like coding for fun as well (or   writing preaching old dude blog posts like this I guess, but you get the   idea).
      •  
    • I actually have other interests outside of work hours so I might actually   be out doing a 10k in the local glen, or battling headcrabs in VR, or   something.
      •  
    • Housework. :-/
      •  
     
    You get the idea though. So while I'm off having a well-rounded life, it's not good to get unnecessarily intrusive alerts to something that either a) doesn't actually directly involve me or b) could wait.

    Again, I'm going to speak totally for myself here, but I also feel the general case is polite for all: there's a lot of good support resources available already; sending DMs on Discord or Twitter or in the Fediverse, looking for direct personal support, isn't really the best way to get help. Using the public/collective resources is absolutely the best way to get that help. Why's it a bad idea to dive into DMs? Here's some reasons I think it's not a good idea:
     
       
    • It's a variation on \"unnecessarily tagging individuals\".
      •  
    • You're short-changing yourself when it comes to getting help. If you ask   somewhere more public you're asking a much bigger audience, who   collectively have more time, more knowledge and more experience than a   single individual.
      •  
    • Following on from that, any answers can be (politely) fact-checked or   enhanced by that audience, resulting in a better chance of getting the   best help possible.
      •  
    • The next seeker-of-help gets to miss out on your question and the answer.   If asked and answered in public, it's a record that can help someone else   in the future.

    I suppose this should really be phrased as a do rather than a don't, as here I want to encourage something positive. A few times I've helped people out who have been very apologetic about their questions being \"noob\" questions, or about how they're fairly new to Python, or programming in general. Really, please, don't feel the need to apologise and don't be ashamed of where you're at.
     
    If you've asked something that's obviously answered in the documentation, that's not a problem; you'll likely get pointed at the docs and it's what happens next that's the key bit. If the attitude is \"oh, cool, that's exactly what I needed to be reading, thanks!\" that's a really positive thing. The only time it's a problem is when there's a real reluctance to use the available resources. We've all seen that person somewhere at some point, right? ;-)

    So, that's my waffle over. As I said at the start: this is my own personal thoughts on how to get help with Textual, both as someone whose job it is to work on Textual and help people with Textual, and also as a FOSS advocate and supporter who can normally be found helping Textual users when he's not \"on the clock\" too.
     
    What I've written here isn't exhaustive. Neither is it novel. Plenty has been written on the general subject in the past, and I'm sure more will be written on the subject in the future. I do, however, feel that these are the most common things I notice. I'd say those dos and don'ts cover 90% of \"can I get some help?\" interactions; perhaps closer to 99%.
     
    Finally, and I think this is the most important thing to remember, the next time you are battling some issue while working with Textual: don't lose your head!

    Cutler, armed with a schedule, was urging the team to \"eat its own dog food\". Part macho stunt and part common sense, the \"dog food diet\" was the cornerstone of Cutler\u2019s philosophy.
     
    G. Pascal Zachary \u2014 Show-Stopper!
     
    I can't remember exactly when it was -- it was likely late in 1994 or some time in 1995 -- when I first came across the concept of, or rather the name for the concept of, \"eating your own dog food\". The idea and the name played a huge part in the book Show-Stopper! by G. Pascal Zachary. The idea wasn't new to me of course; I'd been writing code for over a decade by then and plenty of times I'd built things and then used those things to do things, but it was fascinating to a mostly-self-taught 20-something me to be reading this (excellent -- go read it if you care about the history of your craft) book and to see the idea written down and named.
     
    While Textualize isn't (thankfully -- really, I do recommend reading the book) anything like working on the team building Windows NT, the idea of taking a little time out from working on Textual, and instead work with Textual, makes a lot of sense. It's far too easy to get focused on adding things and improving things and tweaking things while losing sight of the fact that people will want to build with your product.
     
    So you can imagine how pleased I was when Will announced that he wanted all of us to spend a couple or so weeks building something with Textual. I had, of course, already written one small application with the library, and had plans for another (in part it's how I ended up working here), but I'd yet to really dive in and try and build something more involved.
     
    Giving it some thought: I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted to build though. I do want to use Textual to build a brand new terminal-based Norton Guide reader (not my first, not by a long way) but I felt that was possibly a bit too niche, and actually could take a bit too long anyway. Maybe not, it remains to be seen.
     
    Eventually I decided on this approach: try and do a quick prototype of some daft idea each day or each couple of days, do that for a week or so, and then finally try and settle down on something less trivial. This approach should work well in that it'll help introduce me to more of Textual, help try out a few different parts of the library, and also hopefully discover some real pain-points with working with it and highlight a list of issues we should address -- as seen from the perspective of a developer working with the library.
     
    So, here I am, at the end of week one. What I want to try and do is briefly (yes yes, I know, this introduction is the antithesis of brief) talk about what I built and perhaps try and highlight some lessons learnt, highlight some patterns I think are useful, and generally do an end-of-week version of a TIL. TWIL?
     
    Yeah. I guess this is a TWIL.

    I started the week by digging out a quick hack I'd done a couple of weeks earlier, with a view to cleaning it up. It started out as a fun attempt to do something with Rich Pixels while also making a terminal-based take on slstats.el. I'm actually pleased with the result and how quickly it came together.
     
    The point of the application itself is to show some general information about the current state of the Second Life grid (hello to any fellow residents of the original Metaverse!), and to also provide a simple region lookup screen that, using Rich Pixels, will display the object map (albeit in pretty low resolution -- but that's the fun of this!).
     
    So the opening screen looks like this:

    Here's a couple of things from the code that I think are worth a highlight, as things to consider when building Textual apps:

    Use of the default Screen that's provided by the App is handy enough, but I feel any non-trivial application should really put as much code as possible in screens that relate to key \"work\". Here's the entirety of my application code:
     
    class GridInfo( App[ None ] ):\n\"\"\"TUI app for showing information about the Second Life grid.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"gridinfo.css\"\n\"\"\"The name of the CSS file for the app.\"\"\"\nTITLE = \"Grid Information\"\n\"\"\"str: The title of the application.\"\"\"\nSCREENS = {\n\"main\": Main,\n\"region\": RegionInfo\n}\n\"\"\"The collection of application screens.\"\"\"\ndef on_mount( self ) -> None:\n\"\"\"Set up the application on startup.\"\"\"\nself.push_screen( \"main\" )\n
     
    You'll notice there's no work done in the app, other than to declare the screens, and to set the main screen running when the app is mounted.

    My initial version of the application had it loading up the data from the Second Life and GridSurvey APIs in Main.on_mount. This obviously wasn't a great idea as it made the startup appear slow. That's when I realised just how handy call_after_refresh is. This meant I could show some placeholder information and then fire off the requests (3 of them: one to get the main grid information, one to get the grid concurrency data, and one to get the grid size data), keeping the application looking active and updating the display when the replies came in.

    While building this app I think there was only really the one pain-point, and I suspect it's mostly more on me than on Textual itself: getting a good layout and playing whack-a-mole with CSS. I suspect this is going to be down to getting more and more familiar with CSS and the terminal (which is different from laying things out for the web), while also practising with various layout schemes -- which is where the revamped Placeholder class is going to be really useful.

    The next application was initially going to be a very quick hack, but actually turned into a less-trivial build than I'd initially envisaged; not in a negative way though. The more I played with it the more I explored and I feel that this ended up being my first really good exploration of some useful (personal -- your kilometerage may vary) patterns and approaches when working with Textual.
     
    The application itself is a terminal client for the Bored-API. I had initially intended to roll my own code for working with the API, but I noticed that someone had done a nice library for it and it seemed silly to not build on that. Not needing to faff with that, I could concentrate on the application itself.
     
    At first I was just going to let the user click away at a button that showed a random activity, but this quickly morphed into a \"why don't I make this into a sort of TODO list builder app, where you can add things to do when you are bored, and delete things you don't care for or have done\" approach.

    and here's a view of the filter pop-over:

    This came about from me overloading the use of the escape key. I wanted it to work more or less like this:
     
       
    • If you're inside an activity, move focus up to the activity type selection   buttons.
      •  
    • If the filter pop-over is visible, close that.
      •  
    • Otherwise exit the application.
      •  
     
    It was easy enough to do, and I had an action in the Main screen that escape was bound to (again, in the Main screen) that did all this logic with some if/elif work but it didn't feel elegant. Moreover, it meant that the Footer always displayed the same description for the key.
     
    That's when I realised that it made way more sense to have a Binding for escape in every widget that was the actual context for escape's use. So I went from one top-level binding to...
     
    ...\nclass Activity( Widget ):\n\"\"\"A widget that holds and displays a suggested activity.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [\n...\nBinding( \"escape\", \"deselect\", \"Switch to Types\" )\n]\n...\nclass Filters( Vertical ):\n\"\"\"Filtering sidebar.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [\nBinding( \"escape\", \"close\", \"Close Filters\" )\n]\n...\nclass Main( Screen ):\n\"\"\"The main application screen.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [\nBinding( \"escape\", \"quit\", \"Close\" )\n]\n\"\"\"The bindings for the main screen.\"\"\"\n
     
    This was so much cleaner and I got better Footer descriptions too. I'm going to be leaning hard on this approach from now on.

    Until I wrote this application I hadn't really had a need to define or use my own Messages. During work on this I realised how handy they really are. In the code I have an Activity widget which takes care of the job of moving itself amongst its siblings if the user asks to move an activity up or down. When this happens I also want the Main screen to save the activities to the filesystem as things have changed.
     
    Thing is: I don't want the screen to know what an Activity is capable of and I don't want an Activity to know what the screen is capable of; especially the latter as I really don't want a child of a screen to know what the screen can do (in this case \"save stuff\").
     
    This is where messages come in. Using a message I could just set things up so that the Activity could shout out \"HEY I JUST DID A THING THAT CHANGES ME\" and not care who is listening and not care what they do with that information.
     
    So, thanks to this bit of code in my Activity widget...
     
        class Moved( Message ):\n\"\"\"A message to indicate that an activity has moved.\"\"\"\ndef action_move_up( self ) -> None:\n\"\"\"Move this activity up one place in the list.\"\"\"\nif self.parent is not None and not self.is_first:\nparent = cast( Widget, self.parent )\nparent.move_child(\nself, before=parent.children.index( self ) - 1\n)\nself.emit_no_wait( self.Moved( self ) )\nself.scroll_visible( top=True )\n
     
    ...the Main screen can do this:
     
        def on_activity_moved( self, _: Activity.Moved ) -> None:\n\"\"\"React to an activity being moved.\"\"\"\nself.save_activity_list()\n

    The code above used emit_no_wait. Since this blog post was first published that method has been removed from Textual. You should use post_message_no_wait or post_message instead now.

    On top of the issues of getting to know terminal-based-CSS that I mentioned earlier:
     
       
    • Textual currently lacks any sort of selection list or radio-set widget.   This meant that I couldn't quite do the activity type picking how I would   have wanted. Of course I could have rolled my own widgets for this, but I   think I'd sooner wait until such things are in Textual   itself.
      •  
    • Similar to that, I could have used some validating Input widgets. They   too are on the roadmap but I managed to cobble together fairly good   working versions for my purposes. In doing so though I did further   highlight that the reactive attribute   facility   needs a wee bit more attention as I ran into some   (already-known) bugs.   Thankfully in my case it was a very easy   workaround.
      •  
    • Scrolling in general seems a wee bit off when it comes to widgets that are   more than one line tall. While there's nothing really obvious I can point   my finger at, I'm finding that scrolling containers sometimes get confused   about what should be in view. This becomes very obvious when forcing   things to scroll from code. I feel this deserves a dedicated test   application to explore this more.

I didn't quite manage my plan of \"one silly trivial prototype per day\", which means I've ended up with two (well technically one and a half I guess given that gridinfo already existed as a prototype) applications rather than four. I'm okay with that. I got a lot of utility out of this.

    It's 8:59 am and, by my Portuguese standards, it is freezing cold outside: 5 or 6 degrees Celsius. It is my second day at Textualize and I just got into the office. I undress my many layers of clothing to protect me from the Scottish cold and I sit down in my improvised corner of the Textualize office. As I sit down, I turn myself in my chair to face my boss and colleagues to ask \u201cSo, what should I do today?\u201d. I was not expecting Will's answer, but the challenge excited me:
     
    \u201cI thought I'll just throw you in the deep end and have you write some code.\u201d
     
    What happened next was that I spent two days working on PR #1229 to add a new widget to the Textual code base. At the time of writing, the pull request has not been merged yet. Well, to be honest with you, it hasn't even been reviewed by anyone... But that won't stop me from blogging about some of the things I learned while creating this PR.

    This PR adds a widget called Placeholder to Textual. As per the documentation, this widget \u201cis meant to have no complex functionality. Use the placeholder widget when studying the layout of your app before having to develop your custom widgets.\u201d
     
    The point of the placeholder widget is that you can focus on building the layout of your app without having to have all of your (custom) widgets ready. The placeholder widget also displays a couple of useful pieces of information to help you work out the layout of your app, namely the ID of the widget itself (or a custom label, if you provide one) and the width and height of the widget.

    The top left and top right widgets have custom labels. Immediately under the top right placeholder, you can see some placeholders identified as #p3, #p4, and #p5. Those are the IDs of the respective placeholders. Then, rows 2 and 3 contain some placeholders that show their respective size and some placeholders that just contain some text.

    So, how does a code monkey start working on a non-trivial PR within 24 hours of joining a company? The answer is simple: just copy and paste code! But instead of copying and pasting from Stack Overflow, I decided to copy and paste from the internal code base.
     
    My task was to create a new widget, so I thought it would be a good idea to take a look at the implementation of other Textual widgets. For some reason I cannot seem to recall, I decided to take a look at the implementation of the button widget that you can find in _button.py. By looking at how the button widget is implemented, I could immediately learn a few useful things about what I needed to do and some other things about how Textual works.
     
    For example, a widget can have a class attribute called DEFAULT_CSS that specifies the default CSS for that widget. I learned this just from staring at the code for the button widget.
     
    Studying the code base will also reveal the standards that are in place. For example, I learned that for a widget with variants (like the button with its \u201csuccess\u201d and \u201cerror\u201d variants), the widget gets a CSS class with the name of the variant prefixed by a dash. You can learn this by looking at the method Button.watch_variant:
     
    class Button(Static, can_focus=True):\n# ...\ndef watch_variant(self, old_variant: str, variant: str):\nself.remove_class(f\"-{old_variant}\")\nself.add_class(f\"-{variant}\")\n
     
    In short, looking at code and files that are related to the things you need to do is a great way to get information about things you didn't even know you needed.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/22/what-i-learned-from-my-first-non-trivial-pr/#handling-the-placeholder-variant","title":"Handling the placeholder variant","text":"
    A button widget can have a different variant, which is mostly used by Textual to determine the CSS that should apply to the given button. For the placeholder widget, we want the variant to determine what information the placeholder shows. The original GitHub issue mentions 5 variants for the placeholder:
     
       
    • a variant that just shows a label or the placeholder ID;
      •  
    • a variant that shows the size and location of the placeholder;
      •  
    • a variant that shows the state of the placeholder (does it have focus? is the mouse over it?);
      •  
    • a variant that shows the CSS that is applied to the placeholder itself; and
      •  
    • a variant that shows some text inside the placeholder.
      •  
     
    The variant can be assigned when the placeholder is first instantiated, for example, Placeholder(\"css\") would create a placeholder that shows its own CSS. However, we also want to have an on_click handler that cycles through all the possible variants. I was getting ready to reinvent the wheel when I remembered that the standard module itertools has a lovely tool that does exactly what I needed! Thus, all I needed to do was create a new cycle through the variants each time a placeholder is created and then grab the next variant whenever the placeholder is clicked:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\ndef __init__(\nself,\nvariant: PlaceholderVariant = \"default\",\n*,\nlabel: str | None = None,\nname: str | None = None,\nid: str | None = None,\nclasses: str | None = None,\n) -> None:\n# ...\nself.variant = self.validate_variant(variant)\n# Set a cycle through the variants with the correct starting point.\nself._variants_cycle = cycle(_VALID_PLACEHOLDER_VARIANTS_ORDERED)\nwhile next(self._variants_cycle) != self.variant:\npass\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Click handler to cycle through the placeholder variants.\"\"\"\nself.cycle_variant()\ndef cycle_variant(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Get the next variant in the cycle.\"\"\"\nself.variant = next(self._variants_cycle)\n
     
    I am just happy that I had the insight to add this little while loop when a placeholder is instantiated:
     
    from itertools import cycle\n# ...\nclass Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef __init__(...):\n# ...\nself._variants_cycle = cycle(_VALID_PLACEHOLDER_VARIANTS_ORDERED)\nwhile next(self._variants_cycle) != self.variant:\npass\n
     
    Can you see what would be wrong if this loop wasn't there?

    If the variant of the placeholder is supposed to determine what information the placeholder shows, then that information must be updated every time the variant of the placeholder changes. Thankfully, Textual has reactive attributes and watcher methods, so all I needed to do was... Defer the problem to another method:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\nvariant = reactive(\"default\")\n# ...\ndef watch_variant(\nself, old_variant: PlaceholderVariant, variant: PlaceholderVariant\n) -> None:\nself.validate_variant(variant)\nself.remove_class(f\"-{old_variant}\")\nself.add_class(f\"-{variant}\")\nself.call_variant_update()  # <-- let this method do the heavy lifting!\n
     
    Doing this properly required some thinking. Not that the current proposed solution is the best possible, but I did think of worse alternatives while I was thinking how to tackle this. I wasn't entirely sure how I would manage the variant-dependant rendering because I am not a fan of huge conditional statements that look like switch statements:
     
    if variant == \"default\":\n# render the default placeholder\nelif variant == \"size\":\n# render the placeholder with its size\nelif variant == \"state\":\n# render the state of the placeholder\nelif variant == \"css\":\n# render the placeholder with its CSS rules\nelif variant == \"text\":\n# render the placeholder with some text inside\n
     
    However, I am a fan of using the built-in getattr and I thought of creating a rendering method for each different variant. Then, all I needed to do was make sure the variant is part of the name of the method so that I can programmatically determine the name of the method that I need to call. This means that the method Placeholder.call_variant_update is just this:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef call_variant_update(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Calls the appropriate method to update the render of the placeholder.\"\"\"\nupdate_variant_method = getattr(self, f\"_update_{self.variant}_variant\")\nupdate_variant_method()\n
     
    If self.variant is, say, \"size\", then update_variant_method refers to _update_size_variant:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef _update_size_variant(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the placeholder with the size of the placeholder.\"\"\"\nwidth, height = self.size\nself._placeholder_label.update(f\"[b]{width} x {height}[/b]\")\n
     
    This variant \"size\" also interacts with resizing events, so we have to watch out for those:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef on_resize(self, event: events.Resize) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the placeholder \"size\" variant with the new placeholder size.\"\"\"\nif self.variant == \"size\":\nself._update_size_variant()\n

    To conclude this blog post, let me muse about the fact that the original issue mentioned five placeholder variants and that my PR only includes two and a half.
     
    After careful consideration and after coming up with the getattr mechanism to update the display of the placeholder according to the active variant, I started showing the \u201cfinal\u201d product to Will and my other colleagues. Eventually, we ended up getting rid of the variant for CSS and the variant that shows the placeholder state. This means that I had to delete part of my code even before it saw the light of day.
     
    On the one hand, deleting those chunks of code made me a bit sad. After all, I had spent quite some time thinking about how to best implement that functionality! But then, it was time to write documentation and tests, and I verified that the best code is the code that you don't even write! The code you don't write is guaranteed to have zero bugs and it also does not need any documentation whatsoever!
     
    So, it was a shame that some lines of code I poured my heart and keyboard into did not get merged into the Textual code base. On the other hand, I am quite grateful that I won't have to fix the bugs that will certainly reveal themselves in a couple of weeks or months from now. Heck, the code hasn't been merged yet and just by writing this blog post I noticed a couple of tweaks that were missing!

    Broadly speaking, there are two types of contributions you can make to an Open Source project.
     
    The first type is typically a bug fix, but could also be a documentation update, linting fix, or other change which doesn't impact core functionality. Such a contribution is like cake. It's a simple, delicious, gift to the project.
     
    The second type of contribution often comes in the form of a new feature. This contribution likely represents a greater investment of time and effort than a bug fix. It is still a gift to the project, but this contribution is not cake.
     
    A feature PR has far more in common with a puppy. The maintainer(s) may really like the feature but hesitate to merge all the same. They may even reject the contribution entirely. This is because a feature PR requires an ongoing burden to maintain. In the same way that a puppy needs food and walkies, a new feature will require updates and fixes long after the original contribution. Even if it is an amazing feature, the maintainer may not want to commit to that ongoing work.
     
     
    The chances of a feature being merged can depend on the maturity of the project. At the beginning of a project, a maintainer may be delighted with a new feature contribution. After all, having others join you to build something is the joy of Open Source. And yet when a project gets more mature there may be a growing resistance to adding new features, and a greater risk that a feature PR is rejected or sits unappreciated in the PR queue.
     
    So how should a contributor avoid this? If there is any doubt, it's best to propose the feature to the maintainers before undertaking the work. In all likelihood they will be happy for your contribution, just be prepared for them to say \"thanks but no thanks\". Don't take it as a rejection of your gift: it's just that the maintainer can't commit to taking on a puppy.
     
    There are other ways to contribute code to a project that don't require the code to be merged in to the core. You could publish your change as a third party library. Take it from me: maintainers love it when their project spawns an ecosystem. You could also blog about how you solved your problem without an update to the core project. Having a resource that can be googled for, or a maintainer can direct people to, can be a huge help.
     
    What prompted me to think about this is that my two main projects, Rich and Textual, are at quite different stages in their lifetime. Rich is relatively mature, and I'm unlikely to accept a puppy. If you can achieve what you need without adding to the core library, I am probably going to decline a new feature. Textual is younger and still accepting puppies \u2014 in addition to stick insects, gerbils, capybaras and giraffes.

    Tip
     
    You can generate these SVG screenshots for your app with textual run my_app.py --screenshot 5 which will export a screenshot after 5 seconds.
     
    There are actually 2 new widgets: Markdown for a simple Markdown document, and MarkdownViewer which adds browser-like navigation and a table of contents.
     
    Textual has had support for Markdown since day one by embedding a Rich Markdown object -- which still gives decent results! This new widget adds dynamic controls such as scrollable code fences and tables, in addition to working links.
     
    In future releases we plan on adding more Markdown extensions, and the ability to easily embed custom widgets within the document. I'm sure there are plenty of interesting applications that could be powered by dynamically generated Markdown documents.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/15/textual-0110-adds-a-beautiful-markdown-widget/#datatable-improvements","title":"DataTable improvements","text":"
    There has been a lot of work on the DataTable API. We've added the ability to sort the data, which required that we introduce the concept of row and column keys. You can now reference rows / columns / cells by their coordinate or by row / column key.
     
    Additionally there are new update_cell and update_cell_at methods to update cells after the data has been populated. Future releases will have more methods to manipulate table data, which will make it a very general purpose (and powerful) widget.

    The Tree widget has grown a few methods to programmatically expand, collapse and toggle tree nodes.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/15/textual-0110-adds-a-beautiful-markdown-widget/#breaking-changes","title":"Breaking changes","text":"
    There are a few breaking changes in this release. These are mostly naming and import related, which should be easy to fix if you are affected. Here's a few notable examples:
     
       
    • Checkbox has been renamed to Switch. This is because we plan to introduce complimentary Checkbox and RadioButton widgets in a future release, but we loved the look of Switches too much to drop them.
      •  
    • We've dropped the emit and emit_no_wait methods. These methods posted message to the parent widget, but we found that made it problematic to subclass widgets. In almost all situations you want to replace these with self.post_message (or self.post_message_no_wait).
      •  
     
    Be sure to check the CHANGELOG for the full details on potential breaking changes.

    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/24/textual-0120-adds-syntactical-sugar-and-batch-updates/#better-compose","title":"Better compose","text":"
    We've added a little syntactical sugar to Textual's compose methods, which aids both readability and editability (that might not be a word).
     
    First, let's look at the old way of building compose methods. This snippet is taken from the textual colors command.
     
    for color_name in ColorSystem.COLOR_NAMES:\nitems: list[Widget] = [ColorLabel(f'\"{color_name}\"')]\nfor level in LEVELS:\ncolor = f\"{color_name}-{level}\" if level else color_name\nitem = ColorItem(\nColorBar(f\"${color}\", classes=\"text label\"),\nColorBar(\"$text-muted\", classes=\"muted\"),\nColorBar(\"$text-disabled\", classes=\"disabled\"),\nclasses=color,\n)\nitems.append(item)\nyield ColorGroup(*items, id=f\"group-{color_name}\")\n
     
    This code composes the following color swatches:

    Tip
     
    You can see this by running textual colors from the command line.
     
    The old way was not all that bad, but it did make it hard to see the structure of your app at-a-glance, and editing compose methods always felt a little laborious.
     
    Here's the new syntax, which uses context managers to add children to containers:
     
    for color_name in ColorSystem.COLOR_NAMES:\nwith ColorGroup(id=f\"group-{color_name}\"):\nyield Label(f'\"{color_name}\"')\nfor level in LEVELS:\ncolor = f\"{color_name}-{level}\" if level else color_name\nwith ColorItem(classes=color):\nyield ColorBar(f\"${color}\", classes=\"text label\")\nyield ColorBar(\"$text-muted\", classes=\"muted\")\nyield ColorBar(\"$text-disabled\", classes=\"disabled\")\n
     
    The context manager approach generally results in fewer lines of code, and presents attributes on the same line as containers themselves. Additionally, adding widgets to a container can be as simple is indenting them.
     
    You can still construct widgets and containers with positional arguments, but this new syntax is preferred. It's not documented yet, but you can start using it now. We will be updating our examples in the next few weeks.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/24/textual-0120-adds-syntactical-sugar-and-batch-updates/#batch-updates","title":"Batch updates","text":"
    Textual is smart about performing updates to the screen. When you make a change that might repaint the screen, those changes don't happen immediately. Textual makes a note of them, and repaints the screen a short time later (around a 1/60th of a second). Multiple updates are combined so that Textual does less work overall, and there is none of the flicker you might get with multiple repaints.
     
    Although this works very well, it is possible to introduce a little flicker if you make changes across multiple widgets. And especially if you add or remove many widgets at once. To combat this we have added a batch_update context manager which tells Textual to disable screen updates until the end of the with block.
     
    The new Markdown widget uses this context manager when it updates its content. Here's the code:
     
    with self.app.batch_update():\nawait self.query(\"MarkdownBlock\").remove()\nawait self.mount_all(output)\n
     
    Without the batch update there are a few frames where the old markdown blocks are removed and the new blocks are added (which would be perceived as a brief flicker). With the update, the update appears instant.

    A few widgets (such as Button) had a disabled attribute which would fade the widget a little and make it unselectable. We've extended this to all widgets. Although it is particularly applicable to input controls, anything may be disabled. Disabling a container makes its children disabled, so you could use this for disabling a form, for example.
     
    Tip
     
    Disabled widgets may be styled with the :disabled CSS pseudo-selector.

    Textual version 0.14.0 has landed just a week after 0.13.0.
     
    Note
     
    We like fast releases for Textual. Fast releases means quicker feedback, which means better code.
     
    What's new?
     
    We did a little shake-up of posting messages which will simplify building widgets. But this does mean a few breaking changes.
     
    There are two methods in Textual to post messages: post_message and post_message_no_wait. The former was asynchronous (you needed to await it), and the latter was a regular method call. These two methods have been replaced with a single post_message method.
     
    To upgrade your project to Textual 0.14.0, you will need to do the following:
     
       
    • Remove await keywords from any calls to post_message.
      •  
    • Replace any calls to post_message_no_wait with post_message.
      •  
     
    Additionally, we've simplified constructing messages classes. Previously all messages required a sender argument, which had to be manually set. This was a clear violation of our \"no boilerplate\" policy, and has been dropped. There is still a sender property on messages / events, but it is set automatically.
     
    So prior to 0.14.0 you might have posted messages like the following:
     
    await self.post_message(self.Changed(self, item=self.item))\n
     
    You can now replace it with this simpler function call:
     
    self.post_message(self.Change(item=self.item))\n
     
    This also means that you will need to drop the sender from any custom messages you have created.
     
    If this was code pre-0.14.0:
     
    class MyWidget(Widget):\nclass Changed(Message):\n\"\"\"My widget change event.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, sender:MessageTarget, item_index:int) -> None:\nself.item_index = item_index\nsuper().__init__(sender)\n
     
    You would need to make the following change (dropping sender).
     
    class MyWidget(Widget):\nclass Changed(Message):\n\"\"\"My widget change event.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, item_index:int) -> None:\nself.item_index = item_index\nsuper().__init__()\n
     
    If you have any problems upgrading, join our Discord server, we would be happy to help.

    We've just pushed Textual 0.15.0, only 4 days after the previous version. That's a little faster than our typical release cadence of 1 to 2 weeks.

    The highlight of this release is a new Tabs widget to display tabs which can be navigated much like tabs in a browser. Here's a screenshot:

    I like to tweet progress with widgets on Twitter. See the #textualtabs hashtag which documents progress on this widget.
     
    Also in this release is a new LoadingIndicator widget to display a simple animation while waiting for data. Here's a screenshot:

    Textual 0.16.0 lands 9 days after the previous release. We have some new features to show you.
     
    There are two highlights in this release. In no particular order, the first is TabbedContent which uses a row of tabs to navigate content. You will have likely encountered this UI in the desktop and web. I think in Windows they are known as \"Tabbed Dialogs\".
     
    This widget combines existing Tabs and ContentSwitcher widgets and adds an expressive interface for composing. Here's a trivial example to use content tabs to navigate a set of three markdown documents:
     
    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nwith TabbedContent(\"Leto\", \"Jessica\", \"Paul\"):\nyield Markdown(LETO)\nyield Markdown(JESSICA)\nyield Markdown(PAUL)\n

    The second highlight is a frequently requested feature (FRF?). Widgets now have the two new string properties, border_title and border_subtitle, which will be displayed within the widget's border.
     
    You can set the alignment of these titles via border-title-align and border-subtitle-align. Titles may contain Console Markup, so you can add additional color and style to the labels.

    Breaking change
     
    If you have an app that uses any container classes, you should read this section.
     
    We've made a change to containers in this release. Previously all containers had auto scrollbars, which means that any container would scroll if its children didn't fit. With nested layouts, it could be tricky to understand exactly which containers were scrolling. In 0.16.0 we split containers in to scrolling and non-scrolling versions. So Horizontal will now not scroll by default, but HorizontalScroll will have automatic scrollbars.

    Textual has a concept of \"screens\" which you can think of as independent UI modes, each with their own user interface and logic. The App class keeps a stack of these screens so you can switch to a new screen and later return to the previous screen.

    Screens can be used to build modal dialogs by pushing a screen with controls / buttons, and popping the screen when the user has finished with it. The problem with this approach is that there was nothing to indicate to the user that the original screen was still there, and could be returned to.
     
    In this release we have added alpha support to the Screen's background color which allows the screen underneath to show through, typically blended with a little color. Applying this to a screen makes it clear than the user can return to the previous screen when they have finished interacting with the modal.
     
    Here's how you can enable this effect with CSS:
     
    DialogScreen {\nalign: center middle;\nbackground: $primary 30%;\n}\n
     
    Setting the background to $primary will make the background blue (with the default theme). The addition of 30% sets the alpha so that it will be blended with the background. Here's the kind of effect this creates:

    There are 4 screens in the above screenshot, one for the base screen and one for each of the three dialogs. Note how each screen modifies the color of the screen below, but leaves everything visible.

    Textual has had a ListView widget for a while, which is an excellent way of navigating a list of items (actually other widgets). In this release we've added an OptionList which is similar in appearance, but uses the line api under the hood. The Line API makes it more efficient when you approach thousands of items.

    There's also a new logging handler, and a \"thick\" border type.

    Next week we plan to take a break from building Textual to building apps with Textual. We do this now and again to give us an opportunity to step back and understand things from the perspective of a developer using Textual. We will hopefully have something interesting to show from the exercise, and new Open Source apps to share.

    Less than a week since the last release, and we have a new API to show you.
     
    This release adds a new Worker API designed to manage concurrency, both asyncio tasks and threads.
     
    An API to manage concurrency may seem like a strange addition to a library for building user interfaces, but on reflection it makes a lot of sense. People are building Textual apps to interface with REST APIs, websockets, and processes; and they are running into predictable issues. These aren't specifically Textual problems, but rather general problems related to async tasks and threads. It's not enough for us to point users at the asyncio docs, we needed a better answer.
     
    The new run_worker method provides an easy way of launching \"Workers\" (a wrapper over async tasks and threads) which also manages their lifetime.
     
    One of the challenges I've found with tasks and threads is ensuring that they are shut down in an orderly manner. Interestingly enough, Textual already implemented an orderly shutdown procedure to close the tasks that power widgets: children are shut down before parents, all the way up to the App (the root node). The new API piggybacks on to that existing mechanism to ensure that worker tasks are also shut down in the same order.
     
    Tip
     
    You won't need to worry about this gnarly issue with the new Worker API.
     
    I'm particularly pleased with the new @work decorator which can turn a coroutine OR a regular function into a Textual Worker object, by scheduling it as either an asyncio task or a thread. I suspect this will solve 90% of the concurrency issues we see with Textual apps.
     
    See the Worker API for the details.

    It's been a busy couple of weeks at Textualize. We've been building apps with Textual, as part of our dog-fooding week. The first app, Frogmouth, was released at the weekend and already has 1K GitHub stars! Expect two more such apps this month.

    We haven't stopped developing Textual in that time. Today we released version 0.23.0 which has a really interesting API update I'd like to introduce.
     
    Textual widgets can send messages to each other. To respond to those messages, you implement a message handler with a naming convention. For instance, the Button widget sends a Pressed event. To handle that event, you implement a method called on_button_pressed.
     
    Simple enough, but handler methods are called to handle pressed events from all Buttons. To manage multiple buttons you typically had to write a large if statement to wire up each button to the code it should run. It didn't take many Buttons before the handler became hard to follow.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/05/03/textual-0230-improves-message-handling/#on-decorator","title":"On decorator","text":"
    Version 0.23.0 introduces the @on decorator which allows you to dispatch events based on the widget that initiated them.
     
    This is probably best explained in code. The following two listings respond to buttons being pressed. The first uses a single message handler, the second uses the decorator approach:
     on_decorator01.pyon_decorator02.pyOutput on_decorator01.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:  # (1)!\n\"\"\"Handle all button pressed events.\"\"\"\nif event.button.id == \"bell\":\nself.bell()\nelif event.button.has_class(\"toggle\", \"dark\"):\nself.dark = not self.dark\nelif event.button.id == \"quit\":\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The message handler is called when any button is pressed
      2.  
     on_decorator02.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#bell\")  # (1)!\ndef play_bell(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the bell button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.bell()\n@on(Button.Pressed, \".toggle.dark\")  # (2)!\ndef toggle_dark(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the 'toggle dark' button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#quit\")  # (3)!\ndef quit(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the quit button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Matches the button with an id of \"bell\" (note the # to match the id)
      2.  
    2. Matches the button with class names \"toggle\" and \"dark\"
      3.

    The decorator dispatches events based on a CSS selector. This means that you could have a handler per button, or a handler for buttons with a shared class, or parent.
     
    We think this is a very flexible mechanism that will help keep code readable and maintainable.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/05/03/textual-0230-improves-message-handling/#why-didnt-we-do-this-earlier","title":"Why didn't we do this earlier?","text":"
    It's a reasonable question to ask: why didn't we implement this in an earlier version? We were certainly aware there was a deficiency in the API.
     
    The truth is simply that we didn't have an elegant solution in mind until recently. The @on decorator is, I believe, an elegant and powerful mechanism for dispatching handlers. It might seem obvious in hindsight, but it took many iterations and brainstorming in the office to come up with it!

    This one required new functionality in Textual itself. The \"pull-down\" overlay with options presented a difficulty with the previous API. The overlay needed to appear over any content below it. This is possible (using layers), but there was no simple way of positioning it directly under the parent widget.
     
    We solved this with a new \"overlay\" concept, which can considered a special layer for user interactions like this Select, but also pop-up menus, tooltips, etc. Widgets styled to use the overlay appear in their natural place in the \"document\", but on top of everything else.
     
    A second problem we tackled was ensuring that an overlay widget was never clipped. This was also solved with a new rule called \"constrain\". Applying constrain to a widget will keep the widget within the bounds of the screen. In the case of Select, if you expand the options while at the bottom of the screen, then the overlay will be moved up so that you can see all the options.
     
    These new rules are currently undocumented as they are still subject to change, but you can see them in the Select source if you are interested.
     
    In a future release these will be finalized and you can confidently use them in your own projects.

    The new @on decorator is proving popular. To recap, it is a more declarative and finely grained way of dispatching messages. Here's a snippet from the calculator example which uses @on:
     
        @on(Button.Pressed, \"#plus,#minus,#divide,#multiply\")\ndef pressed_op(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Pressed one of the arithmetic operations.\"\"\"\nself.right = Decimal(self.value or \"0\")\nself._do_math()\nassert event.button.id is not None\nself.operator = event.button.id\n
     
    The decorator arranges for the method to be called when any of the four math operation buttons are pressed.
     
    In 0.24.0 we've fixed some missing attributes which prevented the decorator from working with some messages. We've also extended the decorator to use keywords arguments, so it will match attributes other than control.

    We've been a little distracted with our \"dogfood\" projects: Frogmouth and Trogon. Both of which hit 1000 Github stars in 24 hours. We will be maintaining / updating those, but it is business as usual for this Textual release (and it's a big one). We have such sights to show you.

    It's been a slow week or two at Textualize, with Textual devs taking well-earned annual leave, but we still managed to get a new version out.
     
    Version 0.29.0 has shipped with a number of fixes (see the release notes for details), but I'd like to use this post to explain a change we made to how Textual developer tools are distributed.
     
    Previously if you installed textual[dev] you would get the Textual dev tools plus the library itself. If you were distributing Textual apps and didn't need the developer tools you could drop the [dev].
     
    We did this because the less dependencies a package has, the fewer installation issues you can expect to get in the future. And Textual is surprisingly lean if you only need to run apps, and not build them.
     
    Alas, this wasn't quite as elegant solution as we hoped. The dependencies defined in extras wouldn't install commands, so textual was bundled with the core library. This meant that if you installed the Textual package without the [dev] you would still get the textual command on your path but it wouldn't run.
     
    We solved this by creating two packages: textual contains the core library (with minimal dependencies) and textual-dev contains the developer tools. If you are building Textual apps, you should install both as follows:
     
    pip install textual textual-dev\n
     
    That's the only difference. If you run in to any issues feel free to ask on the Discord server!

    We have a new release of Textual to talk about, but before that I'd like to cover a little Textual news.
     
    By sheer coincidence we reached 20,000 stars on GitHub today. Now stars don't mean all that much (at least until we can spend them on coffee), but its nice to know that twenty thousand developers thought Textual was interesting enough to hit the \u2605 button. Thank you!
     
    In other news: we moved office. We are now a stone's throw away from Edinburgh Castle. The office is around three times as big as the old place, which means we have room for wide standup desks and dual monitors. But more importantly we have room for new employees. Don't send your CVs just yet, but we hope to grow the team before the end of the year.

    And now, for the main feature. Version 0.30 adds a new notification system. Similar to desktop notifications, it displays a small window with a title and message (called a toast) for a pre-defined number of seconds.
     
    Notifications are great for short timely messages to add supplementary information for the user. Here it is in action:
     
    The API is super simple. To display a notification, call notify() with a message and an optional title.

    We've released version 0.4.0 of Textual.
     
    As this is the first post tagged with release let me first explain where the blog fits in with releases. We plan on doing a post for every note-worthy release. Which likely means all but the most trivial updates (typos just aren't that interesting). Blog posts will be supplementary to release notes which you will find on the Textual repository.
     
    Blog posts will give a little more background for the highlights in a release, and a rationale for changes and new additions. We embrace building in public, which means that we would like you to be as up-to-date with new developments as if you were sitting in our office. It's a small office, and you might not be a fan of the Scottish weather (it's dreich), but you can at least be here virtually.
     
    Release 0.4.0 follows 0.3.0, released on October 31st. Here are the highlights of the update.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/08/version-040/#updated-mount-method","title":"Updated Mount Method","text":"
    The mount method has seen some work. We've dropped the ability to assign an id via keyword attributes, which wasn't terribly useful. Now, an id must be assigned via the constructor. 
     
    The mount method has also grown before and after parameters which tell Textual where to add a new Widget (the default was to add it to the end). Here are a few examples:
     
    # Mount at the start\nself.mount(Button(id=\"Buy Coffee\"), before=0)\n# Mount after a selector\nself.mount(Static(\"Password is incorrect\"), after=\"Dialog Input.-error\")\n# Mount after a specific widget\ntweet = self.query_one(\"Tweet\")\nself.mount(Static(\"Consider switching to Mastodon\"), after=tweet)\n
     
    Textual needs much of the same kind of operations as the JS API exposed by the browser. But we are determined to make this way more intuitive. The new mount method is a step towards that. 
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/08/version-040/#faster-updates","title":"Faster Updates","text":"
    Textual now writes to stdout in a thread. The upshot of this is that Textual can work on the next update before the terminal has displayed the previous frame.
     
    This means smoother updates all round! You may notice this when scrolling and animating, but even if you don't, you will have more CPU cycles to play with in your Textual app.

    A new release of Textual lands 3 weeks after the previous release -- and it's a big one.
     
    Information
     
    If you're new here, Textual is TUI framework for Python.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/12/11/version-060/#tree-control","title":"Tree Control","text":"
    The headline feature of version 0.6.0 is a new tree control built from the ground-up. The previous Tree control suffered from an overly complex API and wasn't scalable (scrolling slowed down with 1000s of nodes).
     
    This new version has a simpler API and is highly scalable (no slowdown with larger trees). There are also a number of visual enhancements in this version.
     
    Here's a very simple example:
     Outputtree.py 
     TreeApp \u25bc\u00a0Dune \u2517\u2501\u2501\u00a0\u25bc\u00a0Characters \u2523\u2501\u2501\u00a0Paul \u2523\u2501\u2501\u00a0Jessica \u2517\u2501\u2501\u00a0Chani 
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Tree\nclass TreeApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\ntree: Tree[dict] = Tree(\"Dune\")\ntree.root.expand()\ncharacters = tree.root.add(\"Characters\", expand=True)\ncharacters.add_leaf(\"Paul\")\ncharacters.add_leaf(\"Jessica\")\ncharacters.add_leaf(\"Chani\")\nyield tree\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = TreeApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here's the tree control being used to navigate some JSON (json_tree.py in the examples directory).
     
    I'm biased of course, but I think this terminal based tree control is more usable (and even prettier) than just about anything I've seen on the web or desktop. So much of computing tends to organize itself in to a tree that I think this widget will find a lot of uses. 
     
    The Tree control forms the foundation of the DirectoryTree widget, which has also been updated. Here it is used in the code_browser.py example:

    Textual version 0.37.0 has landed! The highlight of this release is the new command palette.
     
    A command palette gives users quick access to features in your app. If you hit ctrl+backslash in a Textual app, it will bring up the command palette where you can start typing commands. The commands are matched with a fuzzy search, so you only need to type two or three characters to get to any command.
     
    Here's a video of it in action:
     
    Adding your own commands to the command palette is a piece of cake. Here's the (command) Provider class used in the example above:
     
    class ColorCommands(Provider):\n\"\"\"A command provider to select colors.\"\"\"\nasync def search(self, query: str) -> Hits:\n\"\"\"Called for each key.\"\"\"\nmatcher = self.matcher(query)\nfor color in COLOR_NAME_TO_RGB.keys():\nscore = matcher.match(color)\nif score > 0:\nyield Hit(\nscore,\nmatcher.highlight(color),\npartial(self.app.post_message, SwitchColor(color)),\n)\n
     
    And here is how you add a provider to your app:
     
    class ColorApp(App):\n\"\"\"Experiment with the command palette.\"\"\"\nCOMMANDS = App.COMMANDS | {ColorCommands}\n
     
    We're excited about this feature because it is a step towards bringing a common user interface to Textual apps.
     
    Quote
     
    It's a Textual app. I know this.
     
    \u2014 You, maybe.
     
    The goal is to be able to build apps that may look quite different, but take no time to learn, because once you learn how to use one Textual app, you can use them all.
     
    See the Guide for details on how to work with the command palette.

    Whenever you are cooking a time-consuming meal, you want to multitask as much as possible. For example, you do not want to stand still while you wait for a pot of water to start boiling. Similarly, you want your applications to remain responsive (i.e., you want the cook to \u201cmultitask\u201d) while they do some time-consuming operations in the background (e.g., while the water heats up).
     
    The animation below shows an example of an application that remains responsive (colours on the left still change on click) even while doing a bunch of time-consuming operations (shown on the right).

Suppose we have an application that needs to display a huge amount of data that needs to be read and parsed from a file. The first time I had to do something like this, I ended up writing an application that \u201cblocked\u201d. This means that while the application was reading and parsing the data, nothing else worked.
     
    To exemplify this type of scenario, I created a simple application that spends five seconds preparing some data. After the data is ready, we display a Label on the right that says that the data has been loaded. On the left, the app has a big rectangle (a custom widget called ColourChanger) that you can click and that changes background colours randomly.
     
    When you start the application, you can click the rectangle on the left to change the background colour of the ColourChanger, as the animation below shows:
     
     
    However, as soon as you press l to trigger the data loading process, clicking the ColourChanger widget doesn't do anything. The app doesn't respond because it is busy working on the data. This is the code of the app so you can try it yourself:
     
    import time\nfrom random import randint\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.containers import Grid, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Label\nclass ColourChanger(Widget):  # (1)!\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\nself.styles.background = Color(\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\n)\nclass MyApp(App[None]):\nBINDINGS = [(\"l\", \"load\", \"Load data\")]  # (2)!\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Grid {\n        grid-size: 2;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Grid(\nColourChanger(),\nVerticalScroll(id=\"log\"),\n)\nyield Footer()\ndef action_load(self) -> None:  # (3)!\ntime.sleep(5)  # (4)!\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Data loaded \u2705\"))\nMyApp().run()\n
     
       
    1. The widget ColourChanger changes colours, randomly, when clicked.
      2.  
    2. We create a binding to the key l that runs an action that we know will take some time (for example, reading and parsing a huge file).
      3.  
    3. The method action_load is responsible for starting our time-consuming task and then reporting back.
      4.  
    4. To simplify things a bit, our \u201ctime-consuming task\u201d is just standing still for 5 seconds.
      5.  
     
    I think it is easy to understand why the widget ColourChanger stops working when we hit the time.sleep call if we consider the cooking analogy I have written about before in my blog. In short, Python behaves like a lone cook in a kitchen:
     
       
    • the cook can be clever and multitask. For example, while water is heating up and being brought to a boil, the cook can go ahead and chop some vegetables.
      •  
    • however, there is only one cook in the kitchen, so if the cook is chopping up vegetables, they can't be seasoning a salad.
      •  
     
    Things like \u201cchopping up vegetables\u201d and \u201cseasoning a salad\u201d are blocking, i.e., they need the cook's time and attention. In the app that I showed above, the call to time.sleep is blocking, so the cook can't go and do anything else until the time interval elapses.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/12/07/letting-your-cook-multitask-while-bringing-water-to-a-boil/#how-can-a-cook-multitask","title":"How can a cook multitask?","text":"
    It makes a lot of sense to think that a cook would multitask in their kitchen, but Python isn't like a smart cook. Python is like a very dumb cook who only ever does one thing at a time and waits until each thing is completely done before doing the next thing. So, by default, Python would act like a cook who fills up a pan with water, starts heating the water, and then stands there staring at the water until it starts boiling instead of doing something else. It is by using the module asyncio from the standard library that our cook learns to do other tasks while awaiting the completion of the things they already started doing.
     
    Textual is an async framework, which means it knows how to interoperate with the module asyncio and this will be the solution to our problem. By using asyncio with the tasks we want to run in the background, we will let the application remain responsive while we load and parse the data we need, or while we crunch the numbers we need to crunch, or while we connect to some slow API over the Internet, or whatever it is you want to do.
     
    The module asyncio uses the keyword async to know which functions can be run asynchronously. In other words, you use the keyword async to identify functions that contain tasks that would otherwise force the cook to waste time. (Functions with the keyword async are called coroutines.)
     
    The module asyncio also introduces a function asyncio.create_task that you can use to run coroutines concurrently. So, if we create a coroutine that is in charge of doing the time-consuming operation and then run it with asyncio.create_task, we are well on our way to fix our issues.
     
    However, the keyword async and asyncio.create_task alone aren't enough. Consider this modification of the previous app, where the method action_load now uses asyncio.create_task to run a coroutine who does the sleeping:
     
    import asyncio\nimport time\nfrom random import randint\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.containers import Grid, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Label\nclass ColourChanger(Widget):\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\nself.styles.background = Color(\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\n)\nclass MyApp(App[None]):\nBINDINGS = [(\"l\", \"load\", \"Load data\")]\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Grid {\n        grid-size: 2;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Grid(\nColourChanger(),\nVerticalScroll(id=\"log\"),\n)\nyield Footer()\ndef action_load(self) -> None:  # (1)!\nasyncio.create_task(self._do_long_operation())  # (2)!\nasync def _do_long_operation(self) -> None:  # (3)!\ntime.sleep(5)\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Data loaded \u2705\"))\nMyApp().run()\n
     
       
    1. The action method action_load now defers the heavy lifting to another method we created.
      2.  
    2. The time-consuming operation can be run concurrently with asyncio.create_task because it is a coroutine.
      3.  
    3. The method _do_long_operation has the keyword async, so it is a coroutine.
      4.  
     
    This modified app also works but it suffers from the same issue as the one before! The keyword async tells Python that there will be things inside that function that can be awaited by the cook. That is, the function will do some time-consuming operation that doesn't require the cook's attention. However, we need to tell Python which time-consuming operation doesn't require the cook's attention, i.e., which time-consuming operation can be awaited, with the keyword await.
     
    Whenever we want to use the keyword await, we need to do it with objects that are compatible with it. For many things, that means using specialised libraries:
     
       
    • instead of time.sleep, one can use await asyncio.sleep;
      •  
    • instead of the module requests to make Internet requests, use aiohttp; or
      •  
    • instead of using the built-in tools to read files, use aiofiles.
      •

    To fix the last example application, all we need to do is replace the call to time.sleep with a call to asyncio.sleep and then use the keyword await to signal Python that we can be doing something else while we sleep. The animation below shows that we can still change colours while the application is completing the time-consuming operation.
     CodeAnimation 
    import asyncio\nimport time\nfrom random import randint\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.containers import Grid, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Label\nclass ColourChanger(Widget):\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\nself.styles.background = Color(\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\n)\nclass MyApp(App[None]):\nBINDINGS = [(\"l\", \"load\", \"Load data\")]\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Grid {\n        grid-size: 2;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Grid(\nColourChanger(),\nVerticalScroll(id=\"log\"),\n)\nyield Footer()\ndef action_load(self) -> None:\nasyncio.create_task(self._do_long_operation())\nasync def _do_long_operation(self) -> None:\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Starting \u23f3\"))  # (1)!\nawait asyncio.sleep(5)  # (2)!\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Data loaded \u2705\"))  # (3)!\nMyApp().run()\n
     
       
    1. We create a label that tells the user that we are starting our time-consuming operation.
      2.  
    2. We await the time-consuming operation so that the application remains responsive.
      3.  
    3. We create a label that tells the user that the time-consuming operation has been concluded.
      4.  
     
     
    Because our time-consuming operation runs concurrently, everything else in the application still works while we await for the time-consuming operation to finish. In particular, we can keep changing colours (like the animation above showed) but we can also keep activating the binding with the key l to start multiple instances of the same time-consuming operation! The animation below shows just this:

    The Rich library has a few functions that are admittedly a little out of scope for a terminal color library. One such function is inspect which is so useful you may want to pip install rich just for this feature.
     
    The easiest way to describe inspect is that it is Python's builtin help() but easier on the eye (and with a few more features). If you invoke it with any object, inspect will display a nicely formatted report on that object \u2014 which makes it great for interrogating objects from the REPL. Here's an example:
     
    >>> from rich import inspect\n>>> text_file = open(\"foo.txt\", \"w\")\n>>> inspect(text_file)\n

    I have been playing around with Textual and recently I decided I needed an indeterminate progress bar to show that some data was loading. Textual is likely to get progress bars in the future, but I don't want to wait for the future! I want my progress bars now!

    Creating a progress bar in Rich is as easy as opening up the documentation for Progress and copying & pasting the code.
     CodeOutput 
    import time\nfrom rich.progress import track\nfor _ in track(range(20), description=\"Processing...\"):\ntime.sleep(0.5)  # Simulate work being done\n
     
     
    The function track provides a very convenient interface for creating progress bars that keep track of a well-specified number of steps. In the example above, we were keeping track of some task that was going to take 20 steps to complete. (For example, if we had to process a list with 20 elements.) However, I am looking for indeterminate progress bars.
     
    Scrolling further down the documentation for rich.progress I found what I was looking for:
     CodeOutput 
    import time\nfrom rich.progress import Progress\nwith Progress() as progress:\n_ = progress.add_task(\"Loading...\", total=None)  # (1)!\nwhile True:\ntime.sleep(0.01)\n
     
       
    1. Setting total=None is what makes it an indeterminate progress bar.
      2.  
     
     
    So, putting an indeterminate progress bar on the screen is easy. Now, I only needed to glue that together with the little I know about Textual to put an indeterminate progress bar in a Textual app.

    What I want is to have an indeterminate progress bar inside my Textual app. Something that looks like this:
     
     
    The GIF above shows just the progress bar. Obviously, the end goal is to have the progress bar be part of a Textual app that does something.
     
    So, when I set out to do this, my first thought went to the stopwatch app in the Textual tutorial because it has a widget that updates automatically, the TimeDisplay. Below you can find the essential part of the code for the TimeDisplay widget and a small animation of it updating when the stopwatch is started.
     TimeDisplay widgetOutput 
    from time import monotonic\nfrom textual.reactive import reactive\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nstart_time = reactive(monotonic)\ntime = reactive(0.0)\ntotal = reactive(0.0)\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when widget is added to the app.\"\"\"\nself.update_timer = self.set_interval(1 / 60, self.update_time, pause=True)\ndef update_time(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Method to update time to current.\"\"\"\nself.time = self.total + (monotonic() - self.start_time)\ndef watch_time(self, time: float) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the time attribute changes.\"\"\"\nminutes, seconds = divmod(time, 60)\nhours, minutes = divmod(minutes, 60)\nself.update(f\"{hours:02,.0f}:{minutes:02.0f}:{seconds:05.2f}\")\n
     
     
    The reason the time display updates magically is due to the three methods that I highlighted in the code above:
     
       
    1. The method on_mount is called when the TimeDisplay widget is mounted on the app and, in it, we use the method set_interval to let Textual know that every 1 / 60 seconds we would like to call the method update_time. (In other words, we would like update_time to be called 60 times per second.)
      2.  
    2. In turn, the method update_time (which is called automatically a bunch of times per second) will update the reactive attribute time. When this attribute update happens, the method watch_time kicks in.
      3.  
    3. The method watch_time is a watcher method and gets called whenever the attribute self.time is assigned to.  So, if the method update_time is called a bunch of times per second, the watcher method watch_time is also called a bunch of times per second. In it, we create a nice representation of the time that has elapsed and we use the method update to update the time that is being displayed.
      4.  
     
    I thought it would be reasonable if a similar mechanism needed to be in place for my progress bar, but then I realised that the progress bar seems to update itself... Looking at the indeterminate progress bar example from before, the only thing going on was that we used time.sleep to stop our program for a bit. We didn't do anything to update the progress bar... Look:
     
    with Progress() as progress:\n_ = progress.add_task(\"Loading...\", total=None)  # (1)!\nwhile True:\ntime.sleep(0.01)\n
     
    After pondering about this for a bit, I realised I would not need a watcher method for anything. The watcher method would only make sense if I needed to update an attribute related to some sort of artificial progress, but that clearly isn't needed to get the bar going...
     
    At some point, I realised that the object progress is the object of interest. At first, I thought progress.add_task would return the progress bar, but it actually returns the integer ID of the task added, so the object of interest is progress. Because I am doing nothing to update the bar explicitly, the object progress must be updating itself.
     
    The Textual documentation also says that we can build widgets from Rich renderables, so I concluded that if Progress were a renderable, then I could inherit from Static and use the method update to update the widget with my instance of Progress directly. I gave it a try and I put together this code:
     
    from rich.progress import Progress, BarColumn\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass IndeterminateProgress(Static):\ndef __init__(self):\nsuper().__init__(\"\")\nself._bar = Progress(BarColumn())  # (1)!\nself._bar.add_task(\"\", total=None)  # (2)!\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\n# When the widget is mounted start updating the display regularly.\nself.update_render = self.set_interval(\n1 / 60, self.update_progress_bar\n)  # (3)!\ndef update_progress_bar(self) -> None:\nself.update(self._bar)  # (4)!\nclass MyApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield IndeterminateProgress()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MyApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Create an instance of Progress that just cares about the bar itself (Rich progress bars can have a label, an indicator for the time left, etc).
      2.  
    2. We add the indeterminate task with total=None for the indeterminate progress bar.
      3.  
    3. When the widget is mounted on the app, we want to start calling update_progress_bar 60 times per second.
      4.  
    4. To update the widget of the progress bar we just call the method Static.update with the Progress object because self._bar is a Rich renderable.
      5.  
     
    And lo and behold, it worked:

    A day after creating my basic IndeterminateProgress widget, I found someone that was trying to display a Rich spinner in a Textual app. Actually, it was someone that had filed an issue against Rich. They didn't ask \u201chow can I display a Rich spinner in a Textual app?\u201d, but they filed an alleged bug that crept up on them when they tried displaying a spinner in a Textual app.
     
    When reading the issue I realised that displaying a Rich spinner looked very similar to displaying a Rich progress bar, so I made a tiny change to my code and tried to run it:
     CodeSpinner running

    1. Instead of creating an instance of Progress, we create an instance of Spinner and save it so we can call self.update(self._spinner) later on.

    After creating the progress bar and spinner widgets I thought of creating the little display that was shown at the beginning of the blog post:
     
     
    When writing the code for this app, I realised both widgets had a lot of shared code and logic and I tried abstracting away their common functionality. That led to the code shown below (more or less) where I implemented the updating functionality in IntervalUpdater and then let the IndeterminateProgressBar and SpinnerWidget instantiate the correct Rich renderable.
     
    from rich.progress import Progress, BarColumn\nfrom rich.spinner import Spinner\nfrom textual.app import RenderableType\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Static\nclass IntervalUpdater(Static):\n_renderable_object: RenderableType  # (1)!\ndef update_rendering(self) -> None:  # (2)!\nself.update(self._renderable_object)\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:  # (3)!\nself.interval_update = self.set_interval(1 / 60, self.update_rendering)\nclass IndeterminateProgressBar(IntervalUpdater):\n\"\"\"Basic indeterminate progress bar widget based on rich.progress.Progress.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self) -> None:\nsuper().__init__(\"\")\nself._renderable_object = Progress(BarColumn())  # (4)!\nself._renderable_object.add_task(\"\", total=None)\nclass SpinnerWidget(IntervalUpdater):\n\"\"\"Basic spinner widget based on rich.spinner.Spinner.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, style: str) -> None:\nsuper().__init__(\"\")\nself._renderable_object = Spinner(style)  # (5)!\n
     
       
    1. Instances of IntervalUpdate should set the attribute _renderable_object to the instance of the Rich renderable that we want to animate.
      2.  
    2. The methods update_rendering and on_mount are exactly the same as what we had before, both in the progress bar widget and in the spinner widget.
      3.  
    3. The methods update_rendering and on_mount are exactly the same as what we had before, both in the progress bar widget and in the spinner widget.
      4.  
    4. For an indeterminate progress bar we set the attribute _renderable_object to an instance of Progress.
      5.  
    5. For a spinner we set the attribute _renderable_object to an instance of Spinner.
      6.  
     
    But I wanted something more! I wanted to make my app similar to the stopwatch app from the terminal and thus wanted to add a \u201cPause\u201d and a \u201cResume\u201d button. These buttons should, respectively, stop the progress bar and the spinner animations and resume them.
     
    Below you can see the code I wrote and a short animation of the app working.

    1. The method pause looks at the attribute interval_update (returned by the method set_interval) and tells it to stop calling the method update_rendering 60 times per second.
      2.  
    2. The method resume looks at the attribute interval_update (returned by the method set_interval) and tells it to resume calling the method update_rendering 60 times per second.
      3.  
    3. We set two distinct IDs for the two buttons so we can easily tell which button was pressed and what the press of that button means.
      4.  
    4. The event handler on_button_pressed will wait for button presses and will take care of pausing or resuming the animations.
      5.  
    5. We look for all of the instances of IntervalUpdater in our app and use a little bit of introspection to call the correct method (pause or resume) in our widgets. Notice this was only possible because the buttons were assigned IDs that matched the names of the methods. (I love Python !)
      6.  
    6. We go through our two buttons to disable the one that was just pressed and to enable the other one.
      7.  
     
    Screen {\nalign: center middle;\n}\nHorizontal {\nheight: 1fr;\nalign-horizontal: center;\n}\nButton {\nmargin: 0 3 0 3;\n}\nGrid {\nheight: 4fr;\nalign: center middle;\ngrid-size: 3 2;\ngrid-columns: 8;\ngrid-rows: 1;\ngrid-gutter: 1;\nborder: gray double;\n}\nIntervalUpdater {\ncontent-align: center middle;\n}\n
     
     
    If you think this was a lot, take a couple of deep breaths before moving on.
     
    The only issue with my app is that... it does not work! If you press the button to pause the animations, it looks like the widgets are paused. However, you can see that if I move my mouse over the paused widgets, they update:
     
     
    Obviously, that caught me by surprise, in the sense that I expected it work. On the other hand, this isn't surprising. After all, I thought I had guessed how I could solve the problem of displaying these Rich renderables that update live and I thought I knew how to pause and resume their animations, but I hadn't convinced myself I knew exactly why it worked.
     
    Warning
     
    This goes to show that sometimes it is not the best idea to commit code that you wrote and that works if you don't know why it works. The code might seem to work and yet have deficiencies that will hurt you further down the road.
     
    As it turns out, the reason why pausing is not working is that I did not grok why the rendering worked in the first place... So I had to go down that rabbit hole first.

    The most basic way of creating a Textual widget is to inherit from Widget and implement the method render that just returns the thing that must be printed on the screen. Then, the widget Static provides some functionality on top of that: the method update.
     
    The method Static.update(renderable) is used to tell the widget in question that its method render (called when the widget needs to be drawn) should just return renderable. So, if the implementation of the method IntervalUpdater.update_rendering (the method that gets called 60 times per second) is this:
     
    class IntervalUpdater(Static):\n# ...\ndef update_rendering(self) -> None:\nself.update(self._renderable_object)\n
     
    Then, we are essentially saying \u201chey, the thing in self._renderable_object is what must be returned whenever Textual asks you to render yourself. So, this really proves that both Progress and Spinner from Rich are renderables. But what is more, this shows that my implementation of IntervalUpdater can be simplified greatly! In fact, we can boil it down to just this:
     
    class IntervalUpdater(Static):\n_renderable_object: RenderableType\ndef __init__(self, renderable_object: RenderableType) -> None:  # (1)!\nsuper().__init__(renderable_object)  # (2)!\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.interval_update = self.set_interval(1 / 60, self.refresh)  # (3)!\n
     
       
    1. To create an instance of IntervalUpdater, now we give it the Rich renderable that we want displayed. If this Rich renderable is something that updates over time, then those changes will be reflected in the rendering.
      2.  
    2. We initialise Static with the renderable object itself, instead of initialising with the empty string \"\" and then updating repeatedly.
      3.  
    3. We call self.refresh 60 times per second. We don't need the auxiliary method update_rendering because this widget (an instance of Static) already knows what its renderable is.
      4.  
     
    Once you understand the code above you will realise that the previous implementation of update_rendering was actually doing superfluous work because the repeated calls to self.update always had the exact same object. Again, we see strong evidence that the Rich progress bars and the spinners have the inherent ability to display a different representation of themselves as time goes by.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/24/spinners-and-progress-bars-in-textual/#how-rich-spinners-get-updated","title":"How Rich spinners get updated","text":"
    I kept seeing strong evidence that Rich spinners and Rich progress bars updated their own rendering but I still did not have actual proof. So, I went digging around to see how Spinner was implemented and I found this code (from the file spinner.py at the time of writing):
     
    class Spinner:\n# ...\ndef __rich_console__(\nself, console: \"Console\", options: \"ConsoleOptions\"\n) -> \"RenderResult\":\nyield self.render(console.get_time())  # (1)!\n# ...\ndef render(self, time: float) -> \"RenderableType\":  # (2)!\n# ...\nframe_no = ((time - self.start_time) * self.speed) / (  # (3)!\nself.interval / 1000.0\n) + self.frame_no_offset\n# ...\n# ...\n
     
       
    1. The Rich spinner implements the function __rich_console__ that is supposed to return the result of rendering the spinner. Instead, it defers its work to the method render... However, to call the method render, we need to pass the argument console.get_time(), which the spinner uses to know in which state it is!
      2.  
    2. The method render takes a time and returns a renderable!
      3.  
    3. To determine the frame number (the current look of the spinner) we do some calculations with the \u201ccurrent time\u201d, given by the parameter time, and the time when the spinner started!
      4.  
     
    The snippet of code shown above, from the implementation of Spinner, explains why moving the mouse over a spinner (or a progress bar) that supposedly was paused makes it move. We no longer get repeated updates (60 times per second) because we told our app that we wanted to pause the result of set_interval, so we no longer get automatic updates. However, moving the mouse over the spinners and the progress bar makes Textual want to re-render them and, when it does, it figures out that time was not frozen (obviously!) and so the spinners and the progress bar have a different frame to show.
     
    To get a better feeling for this, do the following experiment:
     
       
    1. Run the command textual console in a terminal to open the Textual devtools console.
      2.  
    2. Add a print statement like print(\"Rendering from within spinner\") to the beginning of the method Spinner.render (from Rich).
      3.  
    3. Add a print statement like print(\"Rendering static\") to the beginning of the method Static.render (from Textual).
      4.  
    4. Put a blank terminal and the devtools console side by side.
      5.  
    5. Run the app: notice that you get a lot of both print statements.
      6.  
    6. Hit the Pause button: the print statements stop.
      7.  
    7. Move your mouse over a widget or two: you get a couple of print statements, one from the Static.render and another from the Spinner.render.
      8.  
     
    The result of steps 6 and 7 are shown below. Notice that, in the beginning of the animation, the screen on the right shows some prints but is quiet because no more prints are coming in. When the mouse enters the screen and starts going over widgets, the screen on the right gets new prints in pairs, first from Static.render (which Textual calls to render the widget) and then from Spinner.render because ultimately we need to know how the Spinner looks.
     
     
    Now, at this point, I made another educated guess and deduced that progress bars work in the same way! I still have to prove it, and I guess I will do so in another blog post, coming soon, where our spinner and progress bar widgets can be properly paused!
     
    I will see you soon

    I would like to talk about a serious issue in the Free and Open Source software world. Stealing code. You wouldn't steal a car would you?
     
    But you should steal code from Open Source projects. Respect the license (you may need to give attribution) but stealing code is not like stealing a car. If I steal your car, I have deprived you of a car. If you steal my open source code, I haven't lost anything.
     
    Warning
     
    I'm not advocating for piracy. Open source code gives you explicit permission to use it.
     
    From my point of view, I feel like code has greater value when it has been copied / modified in another project.
     
    There are a number of files and modules in Textual that could either be lifted as is, or wouldn't require much work to extract. I'd like to cover a few here. You might find them useful in your next project.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/20/stealing-open-source-code-from-textual/#loop-first-last","title":"Loop first / last","text":"
    How often do you find yourself looping over an iterable and needing to know if an element is the first and/or last in the sequence? It's a simple thing, but I find myself needing this a lot, so I wrote some helpers in _loop.py.
     
    I'm sure there is an equivalent implementation on PyPI, but steal this if you need it.
     
    Here's an example of use:
     
    for last, (y, line) in loop_last(enumerate(self.lines, self.region.y)):\nyield move_to(x, y)\nyield from line\nif not last:\nyield new_line\n
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/20/stealing-open-source-code-from-textual/#lru-cache","title":"LRU Cache","text":"
    Python's lru_cache can be the one-liner that makes your code orders of magnitude faster. But it has a few gotchas.
     
    The main issue is managing the lifetime of these caches. The decorator keeps a single global cache, which will keep a reference to every object in the function call. On an instance method that means you keep references to self for the lifetime of your app.
     
    For a more flexibility you can use the LRUCache implementation from Textual. This uses essentially the same algorithm as the stdlib decorator, but it is implemented as a container.
     
    Here's a quick example of its use. It works like a dictionary until you reach a maximum size. After that, new elements will kick out the element that was used least recently.
     
    >>> from textual._cache import LRUCache\n>>> cache = LRUCache(maxsize=3)\n>>> cache[\"foo\"] = 1\n>>> cache[\"bar\"] = 2\n>>> cache[\"baz\"] = 3\n>>> dict(cache)\n{'foo': 1, 'bar': 2, 'baz': 3}\n>>> cache[\"egg\"] = 4\n>>> dict(cache)\n{'bar': 2, 'baz': 3, 'egg': 4}\n
     
    In Textual, we use a LRUCache to store the results of rendering content to the terminal. For example, in a datatable it is too costly to render everything up front. So Textual renders only the lines that are currently visible on the \"screen\". The cache ensures that scrolling only needs to render the newly exposed lines, and lines that haven't been displayed in a while are discarded to save memory.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/20/stealing-open-source-code-from-textual/#color","title":"Color","text":"
    Textual has a Color class which could be extracted in to a module of its own.
     
    The Color class can parse colors encoded in a variety of HTML and CSS formats. Color object support a variety of methods and operators you can use to manipulate colors, in a fairly natural way.
     
    Here's some examples in the REPL.
     
    >>> from textual.color import Color\n>>> color = Color.parse(\"lime\")\n>>> color\nColor(0, 255, 0, a=1.0)\n>>> color.darken(0.8)\nColor(0, 45, 0, a=1.0)\n>>> color + Color.parse(\"red\").with_alpha(0.1)\nColor(25, 229, 0, a=1.0)\n>>> color = Color.parse(\"#12a30a\")\n>>> color\nColor(18, 163, 10, a=1.0)\n>>> color.css\n'rgb(18,163,10)'\n>>> color.hex\n'#12A30A'\n>>> color.monochrome\nColor(121, 121, 121, a=1.0)\n>>> color.monochrome.hex\n'#797979'\n>>> color.hsl\nHSL(h=0.3246187363834423, s=0.8843930635838151, l=0.33921568627450976)\n>>>\n

    This may be my favorite module in Textual: geometry.py.
     
    The geometry module contains a number of classes responsible for storing and manipulating 2D geometry. There is an Offset class which is a two dimensional point. A Region class which is a rectangular region defined by a coordinate and dimensions. There is a Spacing class which defines additional space around a region. And there is a Size class which defines the dimensions of an area by its width and height.
     
    These objects are used by Textual's layout engine and compositor, which makes them the oldest and most thoroughly tested part of the project.

    If you know us, you will know that we are the team behind Rich and Textual \u2014 two popular Python libraries that work magic in the terminal.
     
    Note
     
    Not to mention Rich-CLI, Trogon, and Frogmouth
     
    Today we are adding one project more to that lineup: textual-web.
     
    Textual Web takes a Textual-powered TUI and turns it in to a web application. Here's a video of that in action:
     
    With the textual-web command you can publish any Textual app on the web, making it available to anyone you send the URL to. This works without creating a socket server on your machine, so you won't have to configure firewalls and ports to share your applications.
     
    We're excited about the possibilities here. Textual web apps are fast to spin up and tear down, and they can run just about anywhere that has an outgoing internet connection. They can be built by a single developer without any experience with a traditional web stack. All you need is proficiency in Python and a little time to read our lovely docs.
     
    Future releases will expose more of the Web platform APIs to Textual apps, such as notifications and file system access. We plan to do this in a way that allows the same (Python) code to drive those features. For instance, a Textual app might save a file to disk in a terminal, but offer to download it in the browser.
     
    Also in the pipeline is PWA support, so you can build terminal apps, web apps, and desktop apps with a single codebase.
     
    Textual Web is currently in a public beta. Join our Discord server if you would like to help us test, or if you have any questions.

    Tech moves pretty fast. If you don\u2019t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. And yet some technology feels like it has been around forever.
     
    Terminals are one of those forever-technologies.
     
    My interest is in Text User Interfaces:  interactive apps that run within a terminal. I spend lot of time thinking about where TUIs might fit within the tech ecosystem, and how much more they could be doing for developers. Hardly surprising, since that is what we do at Textualize.

    In April we took a break from building Textual, to building apps with Textual. We had three ideas to work on, and three devs to do the work. One idea we parked for later. The other two were so promising we devoted more time to them. Both projects took around three developer-weeks to build, which also included work on Textual itself and standard duties for responding to issues / community requests. We released them in May.
     
    The first project was Frogmouth, a Markdown browser. I think this TUI does better than the equivalent web experience in many ways. The only notable missing feature is images, and that will happen before too long.

    The second project was Trogon, a library this time. Trogon automatically creates a TUI for command line apps. Same deal: we released it on a Sunday morning, and it reached 1K stars even quicker than Frogmouth.

    With previous generations of software, TUIs have required a high degree of motivation to build. That has changed with the work that we (and others) have been doing. A TUI can be a powerful and maintainable piece of software which works as a standalone project, or as a value-add to an existing project.
     
    As a forever-technology, a TUI is a safe bet.

    CSS types define the values that Textual CSS styles accept.
     
    CSS types will be linked from within the styles reference in the \"Formal Syntax\" section of each style. The CSS types will be denoted by a keyword enclosed by angle brackets < and >.
     
    For example, the style align-horizontal references the CSS type <horizontal>:

    The official Textual CSS extension adds syntax highlighting for both external files and inline CSS.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#stylesheets","title":"Stylesheets","text":"
    CSS stands for Cascading Stylesheet. A stylesheet is a list of styles and rules about how those styles should be applied to a web page. In the case of Textual, the stylesheet applies styles to widgets, but otherwise it is the same idea.
     
    Let's look at some Textual CSS.
     
    Header {\ndock: top;\nheight: 3;\ncontent-align: center middle;\nbackground: blue;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    This is an example of a CSS rule set. There may be many such sections in any given CSS file.
     
    Let's break this CSS code down a bit.
     
    Header {\ndock: top;\nheight: 3;\ncontent-align: center middle;\nbackground: blue;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    The first line is a selector which tells Textual which widget(s) to modify. In the above example, the styles will be applied to a widget defined by the Python class Header.
     
    Header {\ndock: top;\nheight: 3;\ncontent-align: center middle;\nbackground: blue;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    The lines inside the curly braces contains CSS rules, which consist of a rule name and rule value separated by a colon and ending in a semicolon. Such rules are typically written one per line, but you could add additional rules as long as they are separated by semicolons.
     
    The first rule in the above example reads \"dock: top;\". The rule name is dock which tells Textual to place the widget on an edge of the screen. The text after the colon is top which tells Textual to dock to the top of the screen. Other valid values for dock are \"right\", \"bottom\", or \"left\"; but \"top\" is most appropriate for a header.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#the-dom","title":"The DOM","text":"
    The DOM, or Document Object Model, is a term borrowed from the web world. Textual doesn't use documents but the term has stuck. In Textual CSS, the DOM is an arrangement of widgets you can visualize as a tree-like structure.
     
    Some widgets contain other widgets: for instance, a list control widget will likely also have item widgets, or a dialog widget may contain button widgets. These child widgets form the branches of the tree.
     
    Let's look at a trivial Textual app.
     dom1.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App\nclass ExampleApp(App):\npass\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     ExampleApp 
     
    This example creates an instance of ExampleApp, which will implicitly create a Screen object. In DOM terms, the Screen is a child of ExampleApp.
     
    With the above example, the DOM will look like the following:

    This doesn't look much like a tree yet. Let's add a header and a footer to this application, which will create more branches of the tree:
     dom2.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass ExampleApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     ExampleApp \u2b58ExampleApp 
     
    With a header and a footer widget the DOM looks like this:

    Note
     
    We've simplified the above example somewhat. Both the Header and Footer widgets contain children of their own. When building an app with pre-built widgets you rarely need to know how they are constructed unless you plan on changing the styles of individual components.
     
    Both Header and Footer are children of the Screen object.
     
    To further explore the DOM, we're going to build a simple dialog with a question and two buttons. To do this we're going to import and use a few more builtin widgets:
     
       
    • textual.layout.Container For our top-level dialog.
      •  
    • textual.layout.Horizontal To arrange widgets left to right.
      •  
    • textual.widgets.Static For simple content.
      •  
    • textual.widgets.Button For a clickable button.
      •  
     dom3.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Container, Horizontal\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nQUESTION = \"Do you want to learn about Textual CSS?\"\nclass ExampleApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield Container(\nStatic(QUESTION, classes=\"question\"),\nHorizontal(\nButton(\"Yes\", variant=\"success\"),\nButton(\"No\", variant=\"error\"),\nclasses=\"buttons\",\n),\nid=\"dialog\",\n)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    We've added a Container to our DOM which (as the name suggests) is a container for other widgets. The container has a number of other widgets passed as positional arguments which will be added as the children of the container. Not all widgets accept child widgets in this way. A Button widget doesn't require any children, for example.

    You may recognize some elements in the above screenshot, but it doesn't quite look like a dialog. This is because we haven't added a stylesheet.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#css-files","title":"CSS files","text":"
    To add a stylesheet set the CSS_PATH classvar to a relative path:
     
    Note
     
    Textual CSS files are typically given the extension .tcss to differentiate them from browser CSS (.css).
     dom4.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Container, Horizontal\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nQUESTION = \"Do you want to learn about Textual CSS?\"\nclass ExampleApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"dom4.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield Container(\nStatic(QUESTION, classes=\"question\"),\nHorizontal(\nButton(\"Yes\", variant=\"success\"),\nButton(\"No\", variant=\"error\"),\nclasses=\"buttons\",\n),\nid=\"dialog\",\n)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    You may have noticed that some constructors have additional keyword arguments: id and classes. These are used by the CSS to identify parts of the DOM. We will cover these in the next section.
     
    Here's the CSS file we are applying:
     dom4.tcss
    /* The top level dialog (a Container) */\n#dialog {\nheight: 100%;\nmargin: 4 8;\nbackground: $panel;\ncolor: $text;\nborder: tall $background;\npadding: 1 2;\n}\n/* The button class */\nButton {\nwidth: 1fr;\n}\n/* Matches the question text */\n.question {\ntext-style: bold;\nheight: 100%;\ncontent-align: center middle;\n}\n/* Matches the button container */\n.buttons {\nwidth: 100%;\nheight: auto;\ndock: bottom;\n}\n
     
    The CSS contains a number of rule sets with a selector and a list of rules. You can also add comments with text between /* and */ which will be ignored by Textual. Add comments to leave yourself reminders or to temporarily disable selectors.
     
    With the CSS in place, the output looks very different:

    You can also set the CSS_PATH class variable to a list of paths. Textual will combine the rules from all of the supplied paths.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#why-css","title":"Why CSS?","text":"
    It is reasonable to ask why use CSS at all? Python is a powerful and expressive language. Wouldn't it be easier to set styles in your .py files?
     
    A major advantage of CSS is that it separates how your app looks from how it works. Setting styles in Python can generate a lot of spaghetti code which can make it hard to see the important logic in your application.
     
    A second advantage of CSS is that you can customize builtin and third-party widgets just as easily as you can your own app or widgets.
     
    Finally, Textual CSS allows you to live edit the styles in your app. If you run your application with the following command, any changes you make to the CSS file will be instantly updated in the terminal:
     
    textual run my_app.py --dev\n
     
    Being able to iterate on the design without restarting the application makes it easier and faster to design beautiful interfaces.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#selectors","title":"Selectors","text":"
    A selector is the text which precedes the curly braces in a set of rules. It tells Textual which widgets it should apply the rules to.
     
    Selectors can target a kind of widget or a very specific widget. For instance, you could have a selector that modifies all buttons, or you could target an individual button used in one dialog. This gives you a lot of flexibility in customizing your user interface.
     
    Let's look at the selectors supported by Textual CSS.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#type-selector","title":"Type selector","text":"
    The type selector matches the name of the (Python) class. For example, the following widget can be matched with a Button selector:
     
    from textual.widgets import Static\nclass Button(Static):\npass\n
     
    The following rule applies a border to this widget:
     
    Button {\nborder: solid blue;\n}\n
     
    The type selector will also match a widget's base classes. Consequently, a Static selector will also style the button because the Button Python class extends Static.
     
    Static {\nbackground: blue;\nborder: rounded white;\n}\n
     
    Note
     
    The fact that the type selector matches base classes is a departure from browser CSS which doesn't have the same concept.
     
    You may have noticed that the border rule exists in both Static and Button. When this happens, Textual will use the most recently defined sub-class within a list of bases. So Button wins over Static, and Static wins over Widget (the base class of all widgets). Hence if both rules were in a stylesheet, the buttons would be \"solid blue\" and not \"rounded white\".
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#id-selector","title":"ID selector","text":"
    Every Widget can have a single id attribute, which is set via the constructor. The ID should be unique to its container.
     
    Here's an example of a widget with an ID:
     
    yield Button(id=\"next\")\n
     
    You can match an ID with a selector starting with a hash (#). Here is how you might draw a red outline around the above button:
     
    #next {\noutline: red;\n}\n
     
    A Widget's id attribute can not be changed after the Widget has been constructed.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#class-name-selector","title":"Class-name selector","text":"
    Every widget can have a number of class names applied. The term \"class\" here is borrowed from web CSS, and has a different meaning to a Python class. You can think of a CSS class as a tag of sorts. Widgets with the same tag will share styles.
     
    CSS classes are set via the widget's classes parameter in the constructor. Here's an example:
     
    yield Button(classes=\"success\")\n
     
    This button will have a single class called \"success\" which we could target via CSS to make the button a particular color.
     
    You may also set multiple classes separated by spaces. For instance, here is a button with both an error class and a disabled class:
     
    yield Button(classes=\"error disabled\")\n
     
    To match a Widget with a given class in CSS you can precede the class name with a dot (.). Here's a rule with a class selector to match the \"success\" class name:
     
    .success {\nbackground: green;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    Note
     
    You can apply a class name to any widget, which means that widgets of different types could share classes.
     
    Class name selectors may be chained together by appending another full stop and class name. The selector will match a widget that has all of the class names set. For instance, the following sets a red background on widgets that have both error and disabled class names.
     
    .error.disabled {\nbackground: darkred;\n}\n
     
    Unlike the id attribute, a widget's classes can be changed after the widget was created. Adding and removing CSS classes is the recommended way of changing the display while your app is running. There are a few methods you can use to manage CSS classes.
     
       
    • add_class() Adds one or more classes to a widget.
      •  
    • remove_class() Removes class name(s) from a widget.
      •  
    • toggle_class() Removes a class name if it is present, or adds the name if it's not already present.
      •  
    • has_class() Checks if one or more classes are set on a widget.
      •  
    • classes Is a frozen set of the class(es) set on a widget.
      •  
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#universal-selector","title":"Universal selector","text":"
    The universal selector is denoted by an asterisk and will match all widgets.
     
    For example, the following will draw a red outline around all widgets:
     
    * {\noutline: solid red;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#pseudo-classes","title":"Pseudo classes","text":"
    Pseudo classes can be used to match widgets in a particular state. Pseudo classes are set automatically by Textual. For instance, you might want a button to have a green background when the mouse cursor moves over it. We can do this with the :hover pseudo selector.
     
    Button:hover {\nbackground: green;\n}\n
     
    The background: green is only applied to the Button underneath the mouse cursor. When you move the cursor away from the button it will return to its previous background color.
     
    Here are some other pseudo classes:
     
       
    • :disabled Matches widgets which are in a disabled state.
      •  
    • :enabled Matches widgets which are in an enabled state.
      •  
    • :focus Matches widgets which have input focus.
      •  
    • :focus-within Matches widgets with a focused a child widget.
      •

    More sophisticated selectors can be created by combining simple selectors. The logic used to combine selectors is know as a combinator.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#descendant-combinator","title":"Descendant combinator","text":"
    If you separate two selectors with a space it will match widgets with the second selector that have an ancestor that matches the first selector.

    Let's say we want to make the text of the buttons in the dialog bold, but we don't want to change the Button in the sidebar. We can do this with the following rule:
     
    #dialog Button {\ntext-style: bold;\n}\n
     
    The #dialog Button selector matches all buttons that are below the widget with an ID of \"dialog\". No other buttons will be matched.
     
    As with all selectors, you can combine as many as you wish. The following will match a Button that is under a Horizontal widget and under a widget with an id of \"dialog\":
     
    #dialog Horizontal Button {\ntext-style: bold;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#child-combinator","title":"Child combinator","text":"
    The child combinator is similar to the descendant combinator but will only match an immediate child. To create a child combinator, separate two selectors with a greater than symbol (>). Any whitespace around the > will be ignored.

    We can use the following CSS to style all buttons which have a parent with an ID of sidebar:
     
    #sidebar > Button {\ntext-style: underline;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#specificity","title":"Specificity","text":"
    It is possible that several selectors match a given widget. If the same style is applied by more than one selector then Textual needs a way to decide which rule wins. It does this by following these rules:
     
       
    •  
      The selector with the most IDs wins. For instance #next beats .button and #dialog #next beats #next. If the selectors have the same number of IDs then move to the next rule.
       
      •  
    •  
      The selector with the most class names wins. For instance .button.success beats .success. For the purposes of specificity, pseudo classes are treated the same as regular class names, so .button:hover counts as 2 class names. If the selectors have the same number of class names then move to the next rule.
       
      •  
    •  
      The selector with the most types wins. For instance Container Button beats Button.
       
      •  
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#important-rules","title":"Important rules","text":"
    The specificity rules are usually enough to fix any conflicts in your stylesheets. There is one last way of resolving conflicting selectors which applies to individual rules. If you add the text !important to the end of a rule then it will \"win\" regardless of the specificity.
     
    Warning
     
    Use !important sparingly (if at all) as it can make it difficult to modify your CSS in the future.
     
    Here's an example that makes buttons blue when hovered over with the mouse, regardless of any other selectors that match Buttons:
     
    Button:hover {\nbackground: blue !important;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#css-variables","title":"CSS Variables","text":"
    You can define variables to reduce repetition and encourage consistency in your CSS. Variables in Textual CSS are prefixed with $. Here's an example of how you might define a variable called $border:
     
    $border: wide green;\n
     
    With our variable assigned, we can write $border and it will be substituted with wide green. Consider the following snippet:
     
    #foo {\nborder: $border;\n}\n
     
    This will be translated into:
     
    #foo {\nborder: wide green;\n}\n
     
    Variables allow us to define reusable styling in a single place. If we decide we want to change some aspect of our design in the future, we only have to update a single variable.
     
    Note
     
    Variables can only be used in the values of a CSS declaration. You cannot, for example, refer to a variable inside a selector.
     
    Variables can refer to other variables. Let's say we define a variable $success: lime;. Our $border variable could then be updated to $border: wide $success;, which will be translated to $border: wide lime;.
    "},{"location":"guide/actions/","title":"Actions","text":"
    Actions are allow-listed functions with a string syntax you can embed in links and bind to keys. In this chapter we will discuss how to create actions and how to run them.
    "},{"location":"guide/actions/#action-methods","title":"Action methods","text":"
    Action methods are methods on your app or widgets prefixed with action_. Aside from the prefix these are regular methods which you could call directly if you wished.
     
    Information
     
    Action methods may be coroutines (defined with the async keyword).
     
    Let's write an app with a simple action.
     actions01.py
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual import events\nclass ActionsApp(App):\ndef action_set_background(self, color: str) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = color\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nif event.key == \"r\":\nself.action_set_background(\"red\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ActionsApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The action_set_background method is an action which sets the background of the screen. The key handler above will call this action if you press the R key.
     
    Although it is possible (and occasionally useful) to call action methods in this way, they are intended to be parsed from an action string. For instance, the string \"set_background('red')\" is an action string which would call self.action_set_background('red').
     
    The following example replaces the immediate call with a call to run_action() which parses an action string and dispatches it to the appropriate method.
     actions02.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App\nclass ActionsApp(App):\ndef action_set_background(self, color: str) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = color\nasync def on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nif event.key == \"r\":\nawait self.run_action(\"set_background('red')\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ActionsApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Note that the run_action() method is a coroutine so on_key needs to be prefixed with the async keyword.
     
    You will not typically need this in a real app as Textual will run actions in links or key bindings. Before we discuss these, let's have a closer look at the syntax for action strings.
    "},{"location":"guide/actions/#syntax","title":"Syntax","text":"
    Action strings have a simple syntax, which for the most part replicates Python's function call syntax.
     
    Important
     
    As much as they look like Python code, Textual does not call Python's eval function to compile action strings.
     
    Action strings have the following format:
     
       
    • The name of an action on is own will call the action method with no parameters. For example, an action string of \"bell\" will call action_bell().
      •  
    • Actions may be followed by braces containing Python objects. For example, the action string set_background(\"red\") will call action_set_background(\"red\").
      •

    There are two instances of the custom widget mounted. If you click the links in either of them it will changed the background for that widget only. The R, G, and B key bindings are set on the App so will set the background for the screen.
     
    You can optionally prefix an action with a namespace, which tells Textual to run actions for a different object.
     
    Textual supports the following action namespaces:
     
       
    • app invokes actions on the App.
      •  
    • screen invokes actions on the screen.
      •

    Ths chapter discusses how to use Textual's animation system to create visual effects such as movement, blending, and fading.
    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#animating-styles","title":"Animating styles","text":"
    Textual's animator can change an attribute from one value to another in fixed increments over a period of time. You can apply animations to styles such as offset to move widgets around the screen, and opacity to create fading effects.
     
    Apps and widgets both have an animate method which will animate properties on those objects. Additionally, styles objects have an identical animate method which will animate styles.
     
    Let's look at an example of how we can animate the opacity of a widget to make it fade out. The following example app contains a single Static widget which is immediately animated to an opacity of 0.0 (making it invisible) over a duration of two seconds.
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass AnimationApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nself.box = Static(\"Hello, World!\")\nself.box.styles.background = \"red\"\nself.box.styles.color = \"black\"\nself.box.styles.padding = (1, 2)\nyield self.box\ndef on_mount(self):\nself.box.styles.animate(\"opacity\", value=0.0, duration=2.0)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = AnimationApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The animator updates the value of the opacity attribute on the styles object in small increments over two seconds. Here's what the output will look like after each half a second.
     After 0sAfter 0.5sAfter 1sAfter 1.5sAfter 2s

    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#duration-and-speed","title":"Duration and Speed","text":"
    When requesting an animation you can specify a duration or speed. The duration is how long the animation should take in seconds. The speed is how many units a value should change in one second. For instance, if you animate a value at 0 to 10 with a speed of 2, it will complete in 5 seconds.
    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#easing-functions","title":"Easing functions","text":"
    The easing function determines the journey a value takes on its way to the target value. It could move at a constant pace, or it might start off slow then accelerate towards its final value. Textual supports a number of easing functions.

    You can specify which easing method to use via the easing parameter on the animate method. The default easing method is \"in_out_cubic\" which accelerates and then decelerates to produce a pleasing organic motion.
     
    Note
     
    The textual easing preview requires the textual-dev package to be installed (using pip install textual-dev).

    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#delaying-animations","title":"Delaying animations","text":"
    You can delay the start of an animation with the delay parameter of the animate method. This parameter accepts a float value representing the number of seconds to delay the animation by. For example, self.box.styles.animate(\"opacity\", value=0.0, duration=2.0, delay=5.0) delays the start of the animation by five seconds, meaning the animation will start after 5 seconds and complete 2 seconds after that.

    In this chapter we will cover how to use Textual's App class to create an application. Just enough to get you up to speed. We will go in to more detail in the following chapters.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#the-app-class","title":"The App class","text":"
    The first step in building a Textual app is to import the App class and create a subclass. Let's look at the simplest app class:
     
    from textual.app import App\nclass MyApp(App):\npass\n
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#the-run-method","title":"The run method","text":"
    To run an app we create an instance and call run().
     simple02.py
    from textual.app import App\nclass MyApp(App):\npass\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MyApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Apps don't get much simpler than this\u2014don't expect it to do much.
     
    Tip
     
    The __name__ == \"__main__\": condition is true only if you run the file with python command. This allows us to import app without running the app immediately. It also allows the devtools run command to run the app in development mode. See the Python docs for more information.
     
    If we run this app with python simple02.py you will see a blank terminal, something like the following:
     
     MyApp 
     
    When you call App.run() Textual puts the terminal in to a special state called application mode. When in application mode the terminal will no longer echo what you type. Textual will take over responding to user input (keyboard and mouse) and will update the visible portion of the terminal (i.e. the screen).
     
    If you hit Ctrl+C Textual will exit application mode and return you to the command prompt. Any content you had in the terminal prior to application mode will be restored.
     
    Tip
     
    A side effect of application mode is that you may no longer be able to select and copy text in the usual way. Terminals typically offer a way to bypass this limit with a key modifier. On iTerm you can select text if you hold the Option key. See the documentation for your terminal software for how to select text in application mode.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#events","title":"Events","text":"
    Textual has an event system you can use to respond to key presses, mouse actions, and internal state changes. Event handlers are methods prefixed with on_ followed by the name of the event.
     
    One such event is the mount event which is sent to an application after it enters application mode. You can respond to this event by defining a method called on_mount.

    You may have noticed we use the term \"send\" and \"sent\" in relation to event handler methods in preference to \"calling\". This is because Textual uses a message passing system where events are passed (or sent) between components. See events for details.
     
    Another such event is the key event which is sent when the user presses a key. The following example contains handlers for both those events:
     event01.py
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual import events\nclass EventApp(App):\nCOLORS = [\n\"white\",\n\"maroon\",\n\"red\",\n\"purple\",\n\"fuchsia\",\n\"olive\",\n\"yellow\",\n\"navy\",\n\"teal\",\n\"aqua\",\n]\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = \"darkblue\"\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nif event.key.isdecimal():\nself.screen.styles.background = self.COLORS[int(event.key)]\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = EventApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The on_mount handler sets the self.screen.styles.background attribute to \"darkblue\" which (as you can probably guess) turns the background blue. Since the mount event is sent immediately after entering application mode, you will see a blue screen when you run this code.
     
     EventApp 
     
    The key event handler (on_key) has an event parameter which will receive a Key instance. Every event has an associated event object which will be passed to the handler method if it is present in the method's parameter list.
     
    Note
     
    It is unusual (but not unprecedented) for a method's parameters to affect how it is called. Textual accomplishes this by inspecting the method prior to calling it.
     
    Some events contain additional information you can inspect in the handler. The Key event has a key attribute which is the name of the key that was pressed. The on_key method above uses this attribute to change the background color if any of the keys from 0 to 9 are pressed.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#async-events","title":"Async events","text":"
    Textual is powered by Python's asyncio framework which uses the async and await keywords.
     
    Textual knows to await your event handlers if they are coroutines (i.e. prefixed with the async keyword). Regular functions are generally fine unless you plan on integrating other async libraries (such as httpx for reading data from the internet).
     
    Tip
     
    For a friendly introduction to async programming in Python, see FastAPI's concurrent burgers article.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#widgets","title":"Widgets","text":"
    Widgets are self-contained components responsible for generating the output for a portion of the screen. Widgets respond to events in much the same way as the App. Most apps that do anything interesting will contain at least one (and probably many) widgets which together form a User Interface.
     
    Widgets can be as simple as a piece of text, a button, or a fully-fledged component like a text editor or file browser (which may contain widgets of their own).
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#composing","title":"Composing","text":"
    To add widgets to your app implement a compose() method which should return an iterable of Widget instances. A list would work, but it is convenient to yield widgets, making the method a generator.
     
    The following example imports a builtin Welcome widget and yields it from App.compose().
     widgets01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Welcome\nclass WelcomeApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Welcome()\ndef on_button_pressed(self) -> None:\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WelcomeApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    When you run this code, Textual will mount the Welcome widget which contains Markdown content and a button:

    While composing is the preferred way of adding widgets when your app starts it is sometimes necessary to add new widget(s) in response to events. You can do this by calling mount() which will add a new widget to the UI.

    When you mount a widget, Textual will mount everything the widget composes. Textual guarantees that the mounting will be complete by the next message handler, but not immediately after the call to mount(). This may be a problem if you want to make any changes to the widget in the same message handler.
     
    Let's first illustrate the problem with an example. The following code will mount the Welcome widget in response to a key press. It will also attempt to modify the Button in the Welcome widget by changing its label from \"OK\" to \"YES!\".
     
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Welcome\nclass WelcomeApp(App):\ndef on_key(self) -> None:\nself.mount(Welcome())\nself.query_one(Button).label = \"YES!\" # (1)!\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WelcomeApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. See queries for more information on the query_one method.
      2.  
     
    If you run this example, you will find that Textual raises a NoMatches exception when you press a key. This is because the mount process has not yet completed when we attempt to change the button.
     
    To solve this we can optionally await the result of mount(), which requires we make the function async. This guarantees that by the following line, the Button has been mounted, and we can change its label.
     
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Welcome\nclass WelcomeApp(App):\nasync def on_key(self) -> None:\nawait self.mount(Welcome())\nself.query_one(Button).label = \"YES!\"\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WelcomeApp()\napp.run()\n

    An app will run until you call App.exit() which will exit application mode and the run method will return. If this is the last line in your code you will return to the command prompt.
     
    The exit method will also accept an optional positional value to be returned by run(). The following example uses this to return the id (identifier) of a clicked button.

    You may have noticed that we subclassed App[str] rather than the usual App.

    The addition of [str] tells mypy that run() is expected to return a string. It may also return None if App.exit() is called without a return value, so the return type of run will be str | None. Replace the str in [str] with the type of the value you intend to call the exit method with.
     
    Note
     
    Type annotations are entirely optional (but recommended) with Textual.

    When you exit a Textual app with App.exit(), you can optionally specify a return code with the return_code parameter.
     
    What are return codes?
     
    Returns codes are a standard feature provided by your operating system. When any application exits it can return an integer to indicate if it was successful or not. A return code of 0 indicates success, any other value indicates that an error occurred. The exact meaning of a non-zero return code is application-dependant.
     
    When a Textual app exits normally, the return code will be 0. If there is an unhandled exception, Textual will set a return code of 1. You may want to set a different value for the return code if there is error condition that you want to differentiate from an unhandled exception.
     
    Here's an example of setting a return code for an error condition:
     
    if critical_error:\nself.exit(return_code=4, message=\"Critical error occurred\")\n
     
    The app's return code can be queried with app.return_code, which will be None if it hasn't been set, or an integer.
     
    Textual won't explicitly exit the process. To exit the app with a return code, you should call sys.exit. Here's how you might do that:
     
    if __name__ == \"__main__\"\napp = MyApp()\napp.run()\nimport sys\nsys.exit(app.return_code or 0)\n
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#css","title":"CSS","text":"
    Textual apps can reference CSS files which define how your app and widgets will look, while keeping your Python code free of display related code (which tends to be messy).
     
    Info
     
    Textual apps typically use the extension .tcss for external CSS files to differentiate them from browser (.css) files.
     
    The chapter on Textual CSS describes how to use CSS in detail. For now let's look at how your app references external CSS files.
     
    The following example enables loading of CSS by adding a CSS_PATH class variable:
     question02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Label\nclass QuestionApp(App[str]):\nCSS_PATH = \"question02.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Label(\"Do you love Textual?\", id=\"question\")\nyield Button(\"Yes\", id=\"yes\", variant=\"primary\")\nyield Button(\"No\", id=\"no\", variant=\"error\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\nself.exit(event.button.id)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = QuestionApp()\nreply = app.run()\nprint(reply)\n
     
    Note
     
    We also added an id to the Label, because we want to style it in the CSS.
     
    If the path is relative (as it is above) then it is taken as relative to where the app is defined. Hence this example references \"question01.tcss\" in the same directory as the Python code. Here is that CSS file:
     question02.tcss
    Screen {\nlayout: grid;\ngrid-size: 2;\ngrid-gutter: 2;\npadding: 2;\n}\n#question {\nwidth: 100%;\nheight: 100%;\ncolumn-span: 2;\ncontent-align: center bottom;\ntext-style: bold;\n}\nButton {\nwidth: 100%;\n}\n
     
    When \"question02.py\" runs it will load \"question02.tcss\" and update the app and widgets accordingly. Even though the code is almost identical to the previous sample, the app now looks quite different:
     
     QuestionApp Do\u00a0you\u00a0love\u00a0Textual? \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 \u00a0Yes\u00a0\u00a0No\u00a0 \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581

    While external CSS files are recommended for most applications, and enable some cool features like live editing, you can also specify the CSS directly within the Python code.
     
    To do this set a CSS class variable on the app to a string containing your CSS.
     
    Here's the question app with classvar CSS:
     question03.py

    "},{"location":"guide/app/#title-and-subtitle","title":"Title and subtitle","text":"
    Textual apps have a title attribute which is typically the name of your application, and an optional sub_title attribute which adds additional context (such as the file your are working on). By default, title will be set to the name of your App class, and sub_title is empty. You can change these defaults by defining TITLE and SUB_TITLE class variables. Here's an example of that:
     question_title01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Header, Label\nclass MyApp(App[str]):\nCSS_PATH = \"question02.tcss\"\nTITLE = \"A Question App\"\nSUB_TITLE = \"The most important question\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Label(\"Do you love Textual?\", id=\"question\")\nyield Button(\"Yes\", id=\"yes\", variant=\"primary\")\nyield Button(\"No\", id=\"no\", variant=\"error\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\nself.exit(event.button.id)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MyApp()\nreply = app.run()\nprint(reply)\n

    You can also set the title attributes dynamically within a method of your app. The following example sets the title and subtitle in response to a key press:
     question_title02.py

    Textual apps have a built-in command palette, which gives users a quick way to access certain functionality within your app.

    Press Ctrl + \\ (ctrl and backslash) to invoke the command palette screen, which contains of a single input widget. Textual will suggest commands as you type in that input. Press Up or Down to select a command from the list, and Enter to invoke it.
     
    Commands are looked up via a fuzzy search, which means Textual will show commands that match the keys you type in the same order, but not necessarily at the start of the command. For instance the \"Toggle light/dark mode\" command will be shown if you type \"to\" (for toggle), but you could also type \"dm\" (to match dark mode). This scheme allows the user to quickly get to a particular command with a minimum of key-presses.

      7.  
     
    There are three methods you can override in a command provider: startup, search, and shutdown. All of these methods should be coroutines (async def). Only search is required, the other methods are optional. Let's explore those methods in detail.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#startup-method","title":"startup method","text":"
    The startup method is called when the command palette is opened. You can use this method as way of performing work that needs to be done prior to searching. In the example, we use this method to get the Python (.py) files in the current working directory.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#search-method","title":"search method","text":"
    The search method is responsible for finding results (or hits) that match the user's input. This method should yield Hit objects for any command that matches the query argument.
     
    Exactly how the matching is implemented is up to the author of the command provider, but we recommend using the builtin fuzzy matcher object, which you can get by calling matcher. This object has a match() method which compares the user's search term against the potential command and returns a score. A score of zero means no hit, and you can discard the potential command. A score of above zero indicates the confidence in the result, where 1 is an exact match, and anything lower indicates a less confident match.
     
    The Hit contains information about the score (used in ordering) and how the hit should be displayed, and an optional help string. It also contains a callback, which will be run if the user selects that command.
     
    In the example above, the callback is a lambda which calls the open_file method in the example app.
     
    Note
     
    Unlike most other places in Textual, errors in command provider will not exit the app. This is a deliberate design decision taken to prevent a single broken Provider class from making the command palette unusable. Errors in command providers will be logged to the console.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#shutdown-method","title":"Shutdown method","text":"
    The shutdown method is called when the command palette is closed. You can use this as a hook to gracefully close any objects you created in startup.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#screen-commands","title":"Screen commands","text":"
    You can also associate commands with a screen by adding a COMMANDS class var to your Screen class.
     
    Commands defined on a screen are only considered when that screen is active. You can use this to implement commands that are specific to a particular screen, that wouldn't be applicable everywhere in the app.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#disabling-the-command-palette","title":"Disabling the command palette","text":"
    The command palette is enabled by default. If you would prefer not to have the command palette, you can set ENABLE_COMMAND_PALETTE = False on your app class.

    class NoPaletteApp(App):\nENABLE_COMMAND_PALETTE = False\n

    Textual's design system consists of a number of predefined colors and guidelines for how to use them in your app.
     
    You don't have to follow these guidelines, but if you do, you will be able to mix builtin widgets with third party widgets and your own creations, without worrying about clashing colors.
     
    Information
     
    Textual's color system is based on Google's Material design system, modified to suit the terminal.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#designing-with-colors","title":"Designing with Colors","text":"
    Textual pre-defines a number of colors as CSS variables. For instance, the CSS variable $primary is set to #004578 (the blue used in headers). You can use $primary in place of the color in the background and color rules, or other any other rule that accepts a color.
     
    Here's an example of CSS that uses color variables:
     
    MyWidget {\nbackground: $primary;\ncolor: $text;\n}\n
     
    Using variables rather than explicit colors allows Textual to apply color themes. Textual supplies a default light and dark theme, but in the future many more themes will be available.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#base-colors","title":"Base Colors","text":"
    There are 12 base colors defined in the color scheme. The following table lists each of the color names (as used in CSS) and a description of where to use them.
     Color Description $primary The primary color, can be considered the branding color. Typically used for titles, and backgrounds for strong emphasis. $secondary An alternative branding color, used for similar purposes as $primary, where an app needs to differentiate something from the primary color. $primary-background The primary color applied to a background. On light mode this is the same as $primary. In dark mode this is a dimmed version of $primary. $secondary-background The secondary color applied to a background. On light mode this is the same as $secondary. In dark mode this is a dimmed version of $secondary. $background A color used for the background, where there is no content. $surface The color underneath text. $panel A color used to differentiate a part of the UI form the main content. Typically used for dialogs or sidebars. $boost A color with alpha that can be used to create layers on a background. $warning Indicates a warning. Text or background. $error Indicates an error.  Text or background. $success Used to indicate success.  Text or background. $accent Used sparingly to draw attention to a part of the UI (typically borders around focused widgets)."},{"location":"guide/design/#shades","title":"Shades","text":"
    For every color, Textual generates 3 dark shades and 3 light shades.
     
       
    • Add -lighten-1, -lighten-2, or -lighten-3 to the color's variable name to get lighter shades (3 is the lightest).
      •  
    • Add -darken-1, -darken-2, and -darken-3 to a color to get the darker shades (3 is the darkest).
      •  
     
    For example, $secondary-darken-1 is a slightly darkened $secondary, and $error-lighten-3 is a very light version of the $error color.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#dark-mode","title":"Dark mode","text":"
    There are two color themes in Textual, a light mode and dark mode. You can switch between them by toggling the dark attribute on the App class.
     
    In dark mode $background and $surface are off-black. Dark mode also set $primary-background and $secondary-background to dark versions of $primary and $secondary.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#text-color","title":"Text color","text":"
    The design system defines three CSS variables you should use for text color.
     
       
    • $text sets the color of text in your app. Most text in your app should have this color.
      •  
    • $text-muted sets a slightly faded text color. Use this for text which has lower importance. For instance a sub-title or supplementary information.
      •  
    • $text-disabled sets faded out text which indicates it has been disabled. For instance, menu items which are not applicable and can't be clicked.
      •  
     
    You can set these colors via the color property. The design system uses auto colors for text, which means that Textual will pick either white or black (whichever has better contrast).
     
    Information
     
    These text colors all have some alpha applied, so that even $text isn't pure white or pure black. This is done because blending in a little of the background color produces text that is not so harsh on the eyes.

    The run sub-command runs Textual apps. If you supply a path to a Python file it will load and run the app.
     
    textual run my_app.py\n
     
    This is equivalent to running python my_app.py from the command prompt, but will allow you to set various switches which can help you debug, such as --dev which enable the Console.
     
    See the run subcommand's help for details:
     
    textual run --help\n
     
    You can also run Textual apps from a python import. The following command would import music.play and run a Textual app in that module:
     
    textual run music.play\n
     
    This assumes you have a Textual app instance called app in music.play. If your app has a different name, you can append it after a colon:
     
    textual run music.play:MusicPlayerApp\n

    One of the features of dev mode is live editing of CSS files: any changes to your CSS will be reflected in the terminal a few milliseconds later.
     
    This is a great feature for iterating on your app's look and feel. Open the CSS in your editor and have your app running in a terminal. Edits to your CSS will appear almost immediately after you save.
    "},{"location":"guide/devtools/#console","title":"Console","text":"
    When building a typical terminal application you are generally unable to use print when debugging (or log to the console). This is because anything you write to standard output will overwrite application content. Textual has a solution to this in the form of a debug console which restores print and adds a few additional features to help you debug.
     
    To use the console, open up two terminal emulators. Run the following in one of the terminals:
     
    textual console\n
     
    You should see the Textual devtools welcome message:
     
     textual\u00a0console \u258cTextual\u00a0Development\u00a0Console\u00a0v0.36.0 \u258cRun\u00a0a\u00a0Textual\u00a0app\u00a0with\u00a0textual\u00a0run\u00a0--dev\u00a0my_app.py\u00a0to\u00a0connect. \u258cPress\u00a0Ctrl+C\u00a0to\u00a0quit. 
     
    In the other console, run your application with textual run and the --dev switch:
     
    textual run --dev my_app.py\n
     
    Anything you print from your application will be displayed in the console window. Textual will also write log messages to this window which may be helpful when debugging your application.
    "},{"location":"guide/devtools/#increasing-verbosity","title":"Increasing verbosity","text":"
    Textual writes log messages to inform you about certain events, such as when the user presses a key or clicks on the terminal. To avoid swamping you with too much information, some events are marked as \"verbose\" and will be excluded from the logs. If you want to see these log messages, you can add the -v switch.
     
    textual console -v\n
    "},{"location":"guide/devtools/#decreasing-verbosity","title":"Decreasing verbosity","text":"
    Log messages are classififed in to groups, and the -x flag can be used to exclude all message from a group. The groups are: EVENT, DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, PRINT, SYSTEM, and LOGGING. The group a message belongs to is printed after its timestamp.
     
    Multiple groups may be excluded, for example to exclude everything except warning, errors, and print statements:
     
    textual console -x SYSTEM -x EVENT -x DEBUG -x INFO\n

    textual console --port 7342\n
     
    Then, use the command run with the same --port option:

    Use the log function to pretty-print data structures and anything that Rich can display.
     
    You can import the log function as follows:
     
    from textual import log\n
     
    Here's a few examples of writing to the console, with log:
     
    def on_mount(self) -> None:\nlog(\"Hello, World\")  # simple string\nlog(locals())  # Log local variables\nlog(children=self.children, pi=3.141592)  # key/values\nlog(self.tree)  # Rich renderables\n

    Textual has a logging handler which will write anything logged via the builtin logging library to the devtools. This may be useful if you have a third-party library that uses the logging module, and you want to see those logs with Textual logs.
     
    Note
     
    The logging library works with strings only, so you won't be able to log Rich renderables such as self.tree with the logging handler.
     
    Here's an example of configuring logging to use the TextualHandler.
     
    import logging\nfrom textual.app import App\nfrom textual.logging import TextualHandler\nlogging.basicConfig(\nlevel=\"NOTSET\",\nhandlers=[TextualHandler()],\n)\nclass LogApp(App):\n\"\"\"Using logging with Textual.\"\"\"\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nlogging.debug(\"Logged via TextualHandler\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nLogApp().run()\n

    We've used event handler methods in many of the examples in this guide. This chapter explores events and messages (see below) in more detail.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#messages","title":"Messages","text":"
    Events are a particular kind of message sent by Textual in response to input and other state changes. Events are reserved for use by Textual, but you can also create custom messages for the purpose of coordinating between widgets in your app.
     
    More on that later, but for now keep in mind that events are also messages, and anything that is true of messages is true of events.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#message-queue","title":"Message Queue","text":"
    Every App and Widget object contains a message queue. You can think of a message queue as orders at a restaurant. The chef takes an order and makes the dish. Orders that arrive while the chef is cooking are placed in a line. When the chef has finished a dish they pick up the next order in the line.
     
    Textual processes messages in the same way. Messages are picked off a queue and processed (cooked) by a handler method. This guarantees messages and events are processed even if your code can not handle them right away.
     
    This processing of messages is done within an asyncio Task which is started when you mount the widget. The task monitors a queue for new messages and dispatches them to the appropriate handler when they arrive.
     
    Tip
     
    The FastAPI docs have an excellent introduction to Python async programming.
     
    By way of an example, let's consider what happens if you were to type \"Text\" in to a Input widget. When you hit the T key, Textual creates a key event and sends it to the widget's message queue. Ditto for E, X, and T.
     
    The widget's task will pick the first message from the queue (a key event for the T key) and call the on_key method with the event as the first argument. In other words it will call Input.on_key(event), which updates the display to show the new letter.

events.Key(key=\"T\")events.Key(key=\"e\")events.Key(key=\"x\")Message queueon_key(event)Event handlerevents.Key(key=\"t\") 
    When the on_key method returns, Textual will get the next event from the queue and repeat the process for the remaining keys. At some point the queue will be empty and the widget is said to be in an idle state.
     
    Note
     
    This example illustrates a point, but a typical app will be fast enough to have processed a key before the next event arrives. So it is unlikely you will have so many key events in the message queue.

    You may be familiar with Python's super function to call a function defined in a base class. You will not have to use this in event handlers as Textual will automatically call handler methods defined in a widget's base class(es).
     
    For instance, let's say we are building the classic game of Pong and we have written a Paddle widget which extends Static. When a Key event arrives, Textual calls Paddle.on_key (to respond to Left and Right keys), then Static.on_key, and finally Widget.on_key.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#preventing-default-behaviors","title":"Preventing default behaviors","text":"
    If you don't want this behavior you can call prevent_default() on the event object. This tells Textual not to call any more handlers on base classes.
     
    Warning
     
    You won't need prevent_default very often. Be sure to know what your base classes do before calling it, or you risk disabling some core features builtin to Textual.

    Messages have a bubble attribute. If this is set to True then events will be sent to a widget's parent after processing. Input events typically bubble so that a widget will have the opportunity to respond to input events if they aren't handled by their children.
     
    The following diagram shows an (abbreviated) DOM for a UI with a container and two buttons. With the \"No\" button focused, it will receive the key event first.

    The App class is always the root of the DOM, so there is nowhere for the event to bubble to.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#stopping-bubbling","title":"Stopping bubbling","text":"
    Event handlers may stop this bubble behavior by calling the stop() method on the event or message. You might want to do this if a widget has responded to the event in an authoritative way. For instance when a text input widget responds to a key event it stops the bubbling so that the key doesn't also invoke a key binding.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#custom-messages","title":"Custom messages","text":"
    You can create custom messages for your application that may be used in the same way as events (recall that events are simply messages reserved for use by Textual).
     
    The most common reason to do this is if you are building a custom widget and you need to inform a parent widget about a state change.
     
    Let's look at an example which defines a custom message. The following example creates color buttons which\u2014when clicked\u2014send a custom message.

    Note the custom message class which extends Message. The constructor stores a color object which handler methods will be able to inspect.
     
    The message class is defined within the widget class itself. This is not strictly required but recommended, for these reasons:
     
       
    • It reduces the amount of imports. If you import ColorButton, you have access to the message class via ColorButton.Selected.
      •  
    • It creates a namespace for the handler. So rather than on_selected, the handler name becomes on_color_button_selected. This makes it less likely that your chosen name will clash with another message.
      •  
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#sending-messages","title":"Sending messages","text":"
    To send a message call the post_message() method. This will place a message on the widget's message queue and run any message handlers.
     
    It is common for widgets to send messages to themselves, and allow them to bubble. This is so a base class has an opportunity to handle the message. We do this in the example above, which means a subclass could add a on_color_button_selected if it wanted to handle the message itself.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#preventing-messages","title":"Preventing messages","text":"
    You can temporarily disable posting of messages of a particular type by calling prevent, which returns a context manager (used with Python's with keyword). This is typically used when updating data in a child widget and you don't want to receive notifications that something has changed.
     
    The following example will play the terminal bell as you type. It does this by handling Input.Changed and calling bell(). There is a Clear button which sets the input's value to an empty string. This would normally also result in a Input.Changed event being sent (and the bell playing). Since we don't want the button to make a sound, the assignment to value is wrapped within a prevent context manager.
     
    Tip
     
    In reality, playing the terminal bell as you type would be very irritating -- we don't recommend it!

    Messages have a namespace if they are defined as a child class of a Widget. The namespace is the name of the parent class. For instance, the builtin Input class defines it's Changed message as follow:
     
    class Input(Widget):\n...\nclass Changed(Message):\n\"\"\"Posted when the value changes.\"\"\"\n...\n
     
    Because Changed is a child class of Input, its namespace will be \"input\" (and the handler name will be on_input_changed). This allows you to have similarly named events, without clashing event handler names.
     
    Tip
     
    If you are ever in doubt about what the handler name should be for a given event, print the handler_name class variable for your event class.
     
    Here's how you would check the handler name for the Input.Changed event:
     
    >>> from textual.widgets import Input\n>>> Input.Changed.handler_name\n'on_input_changed'\n
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#on-decorator","title":"On decorator","text":"
    In addition to the naming convention, message handlers may be created with the on decorator, which turns a method into a handler for the given message or event.
     
    For instance, the two methods declared below are equivalent:
     
    @on(Button.Pressed)\ndef handle_button_pressed(self):\n...\ndef on_button_pressed(self):\n...\n
     
    While this allows you to name your method handlers anything you want, the main advantage of the decorator approach over the naming convention is that you can specify which widget(s) you want to handle messages for.
     
    Let's first explore where this can be useful. In the following example we have three buttons, each of which does something different; one plays the bell, one toggles dark mode, and the other quits the app.
     on_decorator01.pyOutput on_decorator01.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:  # (1)!\n\"\"\"Handle all button pressed events.\"\"\"\nif event.button.id == \"bell\":\nself.bell()\nelif event.button.has_class(\"toggle\", \"dark\"):\nself.dark = not self.dark\nelif event.button.id == \"quit\":\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The message handler is called when any button is pressed
      2.

    Note how the message handler has a chained if statement to match the action to the button. While this works just fine, it can be a little hard to follow when the number of buttons grows.
     
    The on decorator takes a CSS selector in addition to the event type which will be used to select which controls the handler should work with. We can use this to write a handler per control rather than manage them all in a single handler.
     
    The following example uses the decorator approach to write individual message handlers for each of the three buttons:
     on_decorator02.pyOutput on_decorator02.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#bell\")  # (1)!\ndef play_bell(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the bell button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.bell()\n@on(Button.Pressed, \".toggle.dark\")  # (2)!\ndef toggle_dark(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the 'toggle dark' button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#quit\")  # (3)!\ndef quit(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the quit button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Matches the button with an id of \"bell\" (note the # to match the id)
      2.  
    2. Matches the button with class names \"toggle\" and \"dark\"
      3.  
    3. Matches the button with an id of \"quit\"
      4.

    While there are a few more lines of code, it is clearer what will happen when you click any given button.
     
    Note that the decorator requires that the message class has a control attribute which should be the widget associated with the message. Messages from builtin controls will have this attribute, but you may need to add control to any custom messages you write.
     
    Note
     
    If multiple decorated handlers match the message, then they will all be called in the order they are defined.
     
    The naming convention handler will be called after any decorated handlers.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#applying-css-selectors-to-arbitrary-attributes","title":"Applying CSS selectors to arbitrary attributes","text":"
    The on decorator also accepts selectors as keyword arguments that may be used to match other attributes in a Message, provided those attributes are in Message.ALLOW_SELECTOR_MATCH.
     
    The snippet below shows how to match the message TabbedContent.TabActivated only when the tab with id home was activated:
     
    @on(TabbedContent.TabActivated, tab=\"#home\")\ndef home_tab(self) -> None:\nself.log(\"Switched back to home tab.\")\n...\n
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#handler-arguments","title":"Handler arguments","text":"
    Message handler methods can be written with or without a positional argument. If you add a positional argument, Textual will call the handler with the event object. The following handler (taken from custom01.py above) contains a message parameter. The body of the code makes use of the message to set a preset color.
     
        def on_color_button_selected(self, message: ColorButton.Selected) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.animate(\"background\", message.color, duration=0.5)\n
     
    A similar handler can be written using the decorator on:
     
        @on(ColorButton.Selected)\ndef animate_background_color(self, message: ColorButton.Selected) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.animate(\"background\", message.color, duration=0.5)\n
     
    If the body of your handler doesn't require any information in the message you can omit it from the method signature. If we just want to play a bell noise when the button is clicked, we could write our handler like this:
     
        def on_color_button_selected(self) -> None:\nself.app.bell()\n
     
    This pattern is a convenience that saves writing out a parameter that may not be used.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#async-handlers","title":"Async handlers","text":"
    Message handlers may be coroutines. If you prefix your handlers with the async keyword, Textual will await them. This lets your handler use the await keyword for asynchronous APIs.
     
    If your event handlers are coroutines it will allow multiple events to be processed concurrently, but bear in mind an individual widget (or app) will not be able to pick up a new message from its message queue until the handler has returned. This is rarely a problem in practice; as long as handlers return within a few milliseconds the UI will remain responsive. But slow handlers might make your app hard to use.
     
    Info
     
    To re-use the chef analogy, if an order comes in for beef wellington (which takes a while to cook), orders may start to pile up and customers may have to wait for their meal. The solution would be to have another chef work on the wellington while the first chef picks up new orders.
     
    Network access is a common cause of slow handlers. If you try to retrieve a file from the internet, the message handler may take anything up to a few seconds to return, which would prevent the widget or app from updating during that time. The solution is to launch a new asyncio task to do the network task in the background.

    The most fundamental way to receive input is via Key events which are sent to your app when the user presses a key. Let's write an app to show key events as you type.
     key01.pyOutput key01.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import RichLog\nclass InputApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display key events.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield RichLog()\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nself.query_one(RichLog).write(event)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = InputApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     InputApp Key(key='T',\u00a0character='T',\u00a0name='upper_t',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='e',\u00a0character='e',\u00a0name='e',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='x',\u00a0character='x',\u00a0name='x',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='t',\u00a0character='t',\u00a0name='t',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='u',\u00a0character='u',\u00a0name='u',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='a',\u00a0character='a',\u00a0name='a',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='l',\u00a0character='l',\u00a0name='l',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key( key='exclamation_mark', character='!', name='exclamation_mark', is_printable=True ) 
     
    When you press a key, the app will receive the event and write it to a RichLog widget. Try pressing a few keys to see what happens.
     
    Tip
     
    For a more feature rich version of this example, run textual keys from the command line.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#key-event","title":"Key Event","text":"
    The key event contains the following attributes which your app can use to know how to respond.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#key","title":"key","text":"
    The key attribute is a string which identifies the key that was pressed. The value of key will be a single character for letters and numbers, or a longer identifier for other keys.
     
    Some keys may be combined with the Shift key. In the case of letters, this will result in a capital letter as you might expect. For non-printable keys, the key attribute will be prefixed with shift+. For example, Shift+Home will produce an event with key=\"shift+home\".
     
    Many keys can also be combined with Ctrl which will prefix the key with ctrl+. For instance, Ctrl+P will produce an event with key=\"ctrl+p\".
     
    Warning
     
    Not all keys combinations are supported in terminals and some keys may be intercepted by your OS. If in doubt, run textual keys from the command line.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#character","title":"character","text":"
    If the key has an associated printable character, then character will contain a string with a single Unicode character. If there is no printable character for the key (such as for function keys) then character will be None.
     
    For example the P key will produce character=\"p\" but F2 will produce character=None.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#name","title":"name","text":"
    The name attribute is similar to key but, unlike key, is guaranteed to be valid within a Python function name. Textual derives name from the key attribute by lower casing it and replacing + with _. Upper case letters are prefixed with upper_ to distinguish them from lower case names.
     
    For example, Ctrl+P produces name=\"ctrl_p\" and Shift+P produces name=\"upper_p\".
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#is_printable","title":"is_printable","text":"
    The is_printable attribute is a boolean which indicates if the key would typically result in something that could be used in an input widget. If is_printable is False then the key is a control code or function key that you wouldn't expect to produce anything in an input.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#aliases","title":"aliases","text":"
    Some keys or combinations of keys can produce the same event. For instance, the Tab key is indistinguishable from Ctrl+I in the terminal. For such keys, Textual events will contain a list of the possible keys that may have produced this event. In the case of Tab, the aliases attribute will contain [\"tab\", \"ctrl+i\"]
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#key-methods","title":"Key methods","text":"
    Textual offers a convenient way of handling specific keys. If you create a method beginning with key_ followed by the key name (the event's name attribute), then that method will be called in response to the key press.
     
    Let's add a key method to the example code.
     key02.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import RichLog\nclass InputApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display key events.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield RichLog()\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nself.query_one(RichLog).write(event)\ndef key_space(self) -> None:\nself.bell()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = InputApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Note the addition of a key_space method which is called in response to the space key, and plays the terminal bell noise.
     
    Note
     
    Consider key methods to be a convenience for experimenting with Textual features. In nearly all cases, key bindings and actions are preferable.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#input-focus","title":"Input focus","text":"
    Only a single widget may receive key events at a time. The widget which is actively receiving key events is said to have input focus.
     
    The following example shows how focus works in practice.

    The app splits the screen in to quarters, with a RichLog widget in each quarter. If you click any of the text logs, you should see that it is highlighted to show that the widget has focus. Key events will be sent to the focused widget only.
     
    Tip
     
    the :focus CSS pseudo-selector can be used to apply a style to the focused widget.
     
    You can move focus by pressing the Tab key to focus the next widget. Pressing Shift+Tab moves the focus in the opposite direction.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#controlling-focus","title":"Controlling focus","text":"
    Textual will handle keyboard focus automatically, but you can tell Textual to focus a widget by calling the widget's focus() method.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#focus-events","title":"Focus events","text":"
    When a widget receives focus, it is sent a Focus event. When a widget loses focus it is sent a Blur event.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#bindings","title":"Bindings","text":"
    Keys may be associated with actions for a given widget. This association is known as a key binding.
     
    To create bindings, add a BINDINGS class variable to your app or widget. This should be a list of tuples of three strings. The first value is the key, the second is the action, the third value is a short human readable description.
     
    The following example binds the keys R, G, and B to an action which adds a bar widget to the screen.

    Note how the footer displays bindings and makes them clickable.
     
    Tip
     
    Multiple keys can be bound to a single action by comma-separating them. For example, (\"r,t\", \"add_bar('red')\", \"Add Red\") means both R and T are bound to add_bar('red').
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#binding-class","title":"Binding class","text":"
    The tuple of three strings may be enough for simple bindings, but you can also replace the tuple with a Binding instance which exposes a few more options.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#priority-bindings","title":"Priority bindings","text":"
    Individual bindings may be marked as a priority, which means they will be checked prior to the bindings of the focused widget. This feature is often used to create hot-keys on the app or screen. Such bindings can not be disabled by binding the same key on a widget.
     
    You can create priority key bindings by setting priority=True on the Binding object. Textual uses this feature to add a default binding for Ctrl+C so there is always a way to exit the app. Here's the bindings from the App base class. Note the first binding is set as a priority:
     
        BINDINGS = [\nBinding(\"ctrl+c\", \"quit\", \"Quit\", show=False, priority=True),\nBinding(\"tab\", \"focus_next\", \"Focus Next\", show=False),\nBinding(\"shift+tab\", \"focus_previous\", \"Focus Previous\", show=False),\n]\n
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#show-bindings","title":"Show bindings","text":"
    The footer widget can inspect bindings to display available keys. If you don't want a binding to display in the footer you can set show=False. The default bindings on App do this so that the standard Ctrl+C, Tab and Shift+Tab bindings don't typically appear in the footer.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#mouse-input","title":"Mouse Input","text":"
    Textual will send events in response to mouse movement and mouse clicks. These events contain the coordinates of the mouse cursor relative to the terminal or widget.
     
    Information
     
    The trackpad (and possibly other pointer devices) are treated the same as the mouse in terminals.
     
    Terminal coordinates are given by a pair values named x and y. The X coordinate is an offset in characters, extending from the left to the right of the screen. The Y coordinate is an offset in lines, extending from the top of the screen to the bottom.
     
    Coordinates may be relative to the screen, so (0, 0) would be the top left of the screen. Coordinates may also be relative to a widget, where (0, 0) would be the top left of the widget itself.

    When you move the mouse cursor over a widget it will receive MouseMove events which contain the coordinate of the mouse and information about what modifier keys (Ctrl, Shift etc) are held down.
     
    The following example shows mouse movements being used to attach a widget to the mouse cursor.
     mouse01.pymouse01.tcss mouse01.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Container\nfrom textual.widgets import RichLog, Static\nclass PlayArea(Container):\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.capture_mouse()\ndef on_mouse_move(self, event: events.MouseMove) -> None:\nself.screen.query_one(RichLog).write(event)\nself.query_one(Ball).offset = event.offset - (8, 2)\nclass Ball(Static):\npass\nclass MouseApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"mouse01.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield RichLog()\nyield PlayArea(Ball(\"Textual\"))\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MouseApp()\napp.run()\n
     mouse01.tcss
    Screen {\nlayers: log ball;\n}\nTextLog {\nlayer: log;\n}\nPlayArea {\nopacity: 0%;\nlayer: ball;\n}\nBall {\nlayer: ball;\nwidth: auto;\nheight: 1;\nbackground: $secondary;\nborder: tall $secondary;\ncolor: $background;\nbox-sizing: content-box;\ntext-style: bold;\npadding: 0 4;\n}\n
     
    If you run mouse01.py you should find that it logs the mouse move event, and keeps a widget pinned directly under the cursor.
     
    The on_mouse_move handler sets the offset style of the ball (a rectangular one) to match the mouse coordinates.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#mouse-capture","title":"Mouse capture","text":"
    In the mouse01.py example there was a call to capture_mouse() in the mount handler. Textual will send mouse move events to the widget directly under the cursor. You can tell Textual to send all mouse events to a widget regardless of the position of the mouse cursor by calling capture_mouse.
     
    Call release_mouse to restore the default behavior.
     
    Warning
     
    If you capture the mouse, be aware you might get negative mouse coordinates if the cursor is to the left of the widget.
     
    Textual will send a MouseCapture event when the mouse is captured, and a MouseRelease event when it is released.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#enter-and-leave-events","title":"Enter and Leave events","text":"
    Textual will send a Enter event to a widget when the mouse cursor first moves over it, and a Leave event when the cursor moves off a widget.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#click-events","title":"Click events","text":"
    There are three events associated with clicking a button on your mouse. When the button is initially pressed, Textual sends a MouseDown event, followed by MouseUp when the button is released. Textual then sends a final Click event.
     
    If you want your app to respond to a mouse click you should prefer the Click event (and not MouseDown or MouseUp). This is because a future version of Textual may support other pointing devices which don't have up and down states.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#scroll-events","title":"Scroll events","text":"
    Most mice have a scroll wheel which you can use to scroll the window underneath the cursor. Scrollable containers in Textual will handle these automatically, but you can handle MouseScrollDown and MouseScrollUp if you want build your own scrolling functionality.
     
    Information
     
    Terminal emulators will typically convert trackpad gestures in to scroll events.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/","title":"Layout","text":"
    In Textual, the layout defines how widgets will be arranged (or laid out) inside a container. Textual supports a number of layouts which can be set either via a widget's styles object or via CSS. Layouts can be used for both high-level positioning of widgets on screen, and for positioning of nested widgets.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#vertical","title":"Vertical","text":"
    The vertical layout arranges child widgets vertically, from top to bottom.

    Screen {\nlayout: vertical;\n}\n.box {\nheight: 1fr;\nborder: solid green;\n}\n
     
    Notice that the first widget yielded from the compose method appears at the top of the display, the second widget appears below it, and so on. Inside vertical_layout.tcss, we've assigned layout: vertical to Screen. Screen is the parent container of the widgets yielded from the App.compose method, and can be thought of as the terminal window itself.
     
    Note
     
    The layout: vertical CSS isn't strictly necessary in this case, since Screens use a vertical layout by default.
     
    We've assigned each child .box a height of 1fr, which ensures they're each allocated an equal portion of the available height.
     
    You might also have noticed that the child widgets are the same width as the screen, despite nothing in our CSS file suggesting this. This is because widgets expand to the width of their parent container (in this case, the Screen).
     
    Just like other styles, layout can be adjusted at runtime by modifying the styles of a Widget instance:
     
    widget.styles.layout = \"vertical\"\n
     
    Using fr units guarantees that the children fill the available height of the parent. However, if the total height of the children exceeds the available space, then Textual will automatically add a scrollbar to the parent Screen.
     
    Note
     
    A scrollbar is added automatically because Screen contains the declaration overflow-y: auto;.
     
    For example, if we swap out height: 1fr; for height: 10; in the example above, the child widgets become a fixed height of 10, and a scrollbar appears (assuming our terminal window is sufficiently small):

    We've changed the layout to horizontal inside our CSS file. As a result, the widgets are now arranged from left to right instead of top to bottom.
     
    We also adjusted the height of the child .box widgets to 100%. As mentioned earlier, widgets expand to fill the width of their parent container. They do not, however, expand to fill the container's height. Thus, we need explicitly assign height: 100% to achieve this.
     
    A consequence of this \"horizontal growth\" behaviour is that if we remove the width restriction from the above example (by deleting width: 1fr;), each child widget will grow to fit the width of the screen, and only the first widget will be visible. The other two widgets in our layout are offscreen, to the right-hand side of the screen. In the case of horizontal layout, Textual will not automatically add a scrollbar.
     
    To enable horizontal scrolling, we can use the overflow-x: auto; declaration:

    The example below shows how we can combine these containers to create a simple 2x2 grid. Inside a single Horizontal container, we place two Vertical containers. In other words, we have a single row containing two columns.

    You may be tempted to use many levels of nested utility containers in order to build advanced, grid-like layouts. However, Textual comes with a more powerful mechanism for achieving this known as grid layout, which we'll discuss below.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#composing-with-context-managers","title":"Composing with context managers","text":"
    In the previous section, we've shown how you add children to a container (such as Horizontal and Vertical) using positional arguments. It's fine to do it this way, but Textual offers a simplified syntax using context managers, which is generally easier to write and edit.
     
    When composing a widget, you can introduce a container using Python's with statement. Any widgets yielded within that block are added as a child of the container.
     
    Let's update the utility containers example to use the context manager approach.

    Note how the end result is the same, but the code with context managers is a little easier to read. It is up to you which method you want to use, and you can mix context managers with positional arguments if you like!

    Note
     
    Grid layouts in Textual have little in common with browser-based CSS Grid.
     
    To get started with grid layout, define the number of columns and rows in your grid with the grid-size CSS property and set layout: grid. Widgets are inserted into the \"cells\" of the grid from left-to-right and top-to-bottom order.
     
    The following example creates a 3 x 2 grid and adds six widgets to it

    If we were to yield a seventh widget from our compose method, it would not be visible as the grid does not contain enough cells to accommodate it. We can tell Textual to add new rows on demand to fit the number of widgets, by omitting the number of rows from grid-size.

    Since we specified that our grid has three columns (grid-size: 3), and we've yielded seven widgets in total, a third row has been created to accommodate the seventh widget.
     
    Now that we know how to define a simple uniform grid, let's look at how we can customize it to create more complex layouts.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#row-and-column-sizes","title":"Row and column sizes","text":"
    You can adjust the width of columns and the height of rows in your grid using the grid-columns and grid-rows properties. These properties can take multiple values, letting you specify dimensions on a column-by-column or row-by-row basis.
     
    Continuing on from our earlier 3x2 example grid, let's adjust the width of the columns using grid-columns. We'll make the first column take up half of the screen width, with the other two columns sharing the remaining space equally.

    Since our grid-size is 3 (meaning it has three columns), our grid-columns declaration has three space-separated values. Each of these values sets the width of a column. The first value refers to the left-most column, the second value refers to the next column, and so on. In the example above, we've given the left-most column a width of 2fr and the other columns widths of 1fr. As a result, the first column is allocated twice the width of the other columns.
     
    Similarly, we can adjust the height of a row using grid-rows. In the following example, we use % units to adjust the first row of our grid to 25% height, and the second row to 75% height (while retaining the grid-columns change from above).

    If you don't specify enough values in a grid-columns or grid-rows declaration, the values you have provided will be \"repeated\". For example, if your grid has four columns (i.e. grid-size: 4;), then grid-columns: 2 4; is equivalent to grid-columns: 2 4 2 4;. If it instead had three columns, then grid-columns: 2 4; would be equivalent to grid-columns: 2 4 2;.

    Cells may span multiple rows or columns, to create more interesting grid arrangements.
     
    To make a single cell span multiple rows or columns in the grid, we need to be able to select it using CSS. To do this, we'll add an ID to the widget inside our compose method so we can set the row-span and column-span properties using CSS.
     
    Let's add an ID of #two to the second widget yielded from compose, and give it a column-span of 2 to make that widget span two columns. We'll also add a slight tint using tint: magenta 40%; to draw attention to it.

    Notice that the widget expands to fill columns to the right of its original position. Since #two now spans two cells instead of one, all widgets that follow it are shifted along one cell in the grid to accommodate. As a result, the final widget wraps on to a new row at the bottom of the grid.
     
    Note
     
    In the example above, setting the column-span of #two to be 3 (instead of 2) would have the same effect, since there are only 2 columns available (including #two's original column).
     
    We can similarly adjust the row-span of a cell to have it span multiple rows. This can be used in conjunction with column-span, meaning one cell may span multiple rows and columns. The example below shows row-span in action. We again target widget #two in our CSS, and add a row-span: 2; declaration to it.

    Widget #two now spans two columns and two rows, covering a total of four cells. Notice how the other cells are moved to accommodate this change. The widget that previously occupied a single cell now occupies four cells, thus displacing three cells to a new row.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#gutter","title":"Gutter","text":"
    The spacing between cells in the grid can be adjusted using the grid-gutter CSS property. By default, cells have no gutter, meaning their edges touch each other. Gutter is applied across every cell in the grid, so grid-gutter must be used on a widget with layout: grid (not on a child/cell widget).
     
    To illustrate gutter let's set our Screen background color to lightgreen, and the background color of the widgets we yield to darkmagenta. Now if we add grid-gutter: 1; to our grid, one cell of spacing appears between the cells and reveals the light green background of the Screen.

    Notice that gutter only applies between the cells in a grid, pushing them away from each other. It doesn't add any spacing between cells and the edges of the parent container.
     
    Tip
     
    You can also supply two values to the grid-gutter property to set vertical and horizontal gutters respectively. Since terminal cells are typically two times taller than they are wide, it's common to set the horizontal gutter equal to double the vertical gutter (e.g. grid-gutter: 1 2;) in order to achieve visually consistent spacing around grid cells.

    Widgets may be docked. Docking a widget removes it from the layout and fixes its position, aligned to either the top, right, bottom, or left edges of a container. Docked widgets will not scroll out of view, making them ideal for sticky headers, footers, and sidebars.

    To dock a widget to an edge, add a dock: <EDGE>; declaration to it, where <EDGE> is one of top, right, bottom, or left. For example, a sidebar similar to that shown in the diagram above can be achieved using dock: left;. The code below shows a simple sidebar implementation.

    If we run the app above and scroll down, the body text will scroll but the sidebar does not (note the position of the scrollbar in the output shown above).
     
    Docking multiple widgets to the same edge will result in overlap. The first widget yielded from compose will appear below widgets yielded after it. Let's dock a second sidebar, #another-sidebar, to the left of the screen. This new sidebar is double the width of the one previous one, and has a deeppink background.

    Notice that the original sidebar (#sidebar) appears on top of the newly docked widget. This is because #sidebar was yielded after #another-sidebar inside the compose method.
     
    Of course, we can also dock widgets to multiple edges within the same container. The built-in Header widget contains some internal CSS which docks it to the top. We can yield it inside compose, and without any additional CSS, we get a header fixed to the top of the screen.

    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#layers","title":"Layers","text":"
    Textual has a concept of layers which gives you finely grained control over the order widgets are placed.
     
    When drawing widgets, Textual will first draw on lower layers, working its way up to higher layers. As such, widgets on higher layers will be drawn on top of those on lower layers.
     
    Layer names are defined with a layers style on a container (parent) widget. Descendants of this widget can then be assigned to one of these layers using a layer style.
     
    The layers style takes a space-separated list of layer names. The leftmost name is the lowest layer, and the rightmost is the highest layer. Therefore, if you assign a descendant to the rightmost layer name, it'll be drawn on the top layer and will be visible above all other descendants.
     
    An example layers declaration looks like: layers: one two three;. To add a widget to the topmost layer in this case, you'd add a declaration of layer: three; to it.
     
    In the example below, #box1 is yielded before #box2. Given our earlier discussion on yield order, you'd expect #box2 to appear on top. However, in this case, both #box1 and #box2 are assigned to layers which define the reverse order, so #box1 is on top of #box2

    Widgets have a relative offset which is added to the widget's location, after its location has been determined via its parent's layout. This means that if a widget hasn't had its offset modified using CSS or Python code, it will have an offset of (0, 0).

    • The first value defines the x (horizontal) offset. Positive values will shift the widget to the right. Negative values will shift the widget to the left.
      •  
    • The second value defines the y (vertical) offset. Positive values will shift the widget down. Negative values will shift the widget up.

    "},{"location":"guide/queries/","title":"DOM Queries","text":"
    In the previous chapter we introduced the DOM which is how Textual apps keep track of widgets. We saw how you can apply styles to the DOM with CSS selectors.
     
    Selectors are a very useful idea and can do more that apply styles. We can also find widgets in Python code with selectors, and make updates to widgets in a simple expressive way. Let's look at how!
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#query-one","title":"Query one","text":"
    The query_one method gets a single widget in an app or other widget. If you call it with a selector it will return the first matching widget.
     
    Let's say we have a widget with an ID of send and we want to get a reference to it in our app. We could do this with the following:
     
    send_button = self.query_one(\"#send\")\n
     
    If there is no widget with an ID of send, Textual will raise a NoMatches exception. Otherwise it will return the matched widget.
     
    You can also add a second parameter for the expected type.
     
    send_button = self.query_one(\"#send\", Button)\n
     
    If the matched widget is not a button (i.e. if isinstance(widget, Button) equals False), Textual will raise a WrongType exception.
     
    Tip
     
    The second parameter allows type-checkers like MyPy to know the exact return type. Without it, MyPy would only know the result of query_one is a Widget (the base class).
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#making-queries","title":"Making queries","text":"
    Apps and widgets have a query method which finds (or queries) widgets. This method returns a DOMQuery object which is a list-like container of widgets.
     
    If you call query with no arguments, you will get back a DOMQuery containing all widgets. This method is recursive, meaning it will also return child widgets (as many levels as required).
     
    Here's how you might iterate over all the widgets in your app:
     
    for widget in self.query():\nprint(widget)\n
     
    Called on the app, this will retrieve all widgets in the app. If you call the same method on a widget, it will return the children of that widget.
     
    Note
     
    All the query and related methods work on both App and Widget sub-classes.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#query-selectors","title":"Query selectors","text":"
    You can call query with a CSS selector. Let's look a few examples:
     
    If we want to find all the button widgets, we could do something like the following:
     
    for button in self.query(\"Button\"):\nprint(button)\n
     
    Any selector that works in CSS will work with the query method. For instance, if we want to find all the disabled buttons in a Dialog widget, we could do this:
     
    for button in self.query(\"Dialog Button.disabled\"):\nprint(button)\n
     
    Info
     
    The selector Dialog Button.disabled says find all the Button with a CSS class of disabled that are a child of a Dialog widget.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#results","title":"Results","text":"
    Query objects have a results method which is an alternative way of iterating over widgets. If you supply a type (i.e. a Widget class) then this method will generate only objects of that type.
     
    The following example queries for widgets with the disabled CSS class and iterates over just the Button objects.
     
    for button in self.query(\".disabled\").results(Button):\nprint(button)\n
     
    Tip
     
    This method allows type-checkers like MyPy to know the exact type of the object in the loop. Without it, MyPy would only know that button is a Widget (the base class).
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#query-objects","title":"Query objects","text":"
    We've seen that the query method returns a DOMQuery object you can iterate over in a for loop. Query objects behave like Python lists and support all of the same operations (such as query[0], len(query) ,reverse(query) etc). They also have a number of other methods to simplify retrieving and modifying widgets.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#first-and-last","title":"First and last","text":"
    The first and last methods return the first or last matching widget from the selector, respectively.
     
    Here's how we might find the last button in an app:
     
    last_button = self.query(\"Button\").last()\n
     
    If there are no buttons, Textual will raise a NoMatches exception. Otherwise it will return a button widget.
     
    Both first() and last() accept an expect_type argument that should be the class of the widget you are expecting. Let's say we want to get the last widget with class .disabled, and we want to check it really is a button. We could do this:
     
    disabled_button = self.query(\".disabled\").last(Button)\n
     
    The query selects all widgets with a disabled CSS class. The last method gets the last disabled widget and checks it is a Button and not any other kind of widget.
     
    If the last widget is not a button, Textual will raise a WrongType exception.
     
    Tip
     
    Specifying the expected type allows type-checkers like MyPy to know the exact return type.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#filter","title":"Filter","text":"
    Query objects have a filter method which further refines a query. This method will return a new query object with widgets that match both the original query and the new selector

    # Get all the Buttons\nbuttons_query = self.query(\"Button\")\n# Buttons with 'disabled' CSS class\ndisabled_buttons = buttons_query.filter(\".disabled\")\n
     
    Iterating over disabled_buttons will give us all the disabled buttons.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#exclude","title":"Exclude","text":"
    Query objects have an exclude method which is the logical opposite of filter. The exclude method removes any widgets from the query object which match a selector.

    # Get all the Buttons\nbuttons_query = self.query(\"Button\")\n# Remove all the Buttons with the 'disabled' CSS class\nenabled_buttons = buttons_query.exclude(\".disabled\")\n

    Once you have a query object, you can loop over it to call methods on the matched widgets. Query objects also support a number of methods which make an update to every matched widget without an explicit loop.
     
    For instance, let's say we want to disable all buttons in an app. We could do this by calling add_class() on a query object.
     
    self.query(\"Button\").add_class(\"disabled\")\n
     
    This single line is equivalent to the following:

    "},{"location":"guide/reactivity/#reactive-attributes","title":"Reactive attributes","text":"
    Textual provides an alternative way of adding attributes to your widget or App, which doesn't require adding them to your class constructor (__init__). To create these attributes import reactive from textual.reactive, and assign them in the class scope.
     
    The following code illustrates how to create reactive attributes:
     
    from textual.reactive import reactive\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass Reactive(Widget):\nname = reactive(\"Paul\")  # (1)!\ncount = reactive(0) # (2)!\nis_cool = reactive(True)  # (3)!\n
     
       
    1. Create a string attribute with a default of \"Paul\"
      2.  
    2. Creates an integer attribute with a default of 0.
      3.  
    3. Creates a boolean attribute with a default of True.
      4.  
     
    The reactive constructor accepts a default value as the first positional argument.
     
    Information
     
    Textual uses Python's descriptor protocol to create reactive attributes, which is the same protocol used by the builtin property decorator.
     
    You can get and set these attributes in the same way as if you had assigned them in an __init__ method. For instance self.name = \"Jessica\", self.count += 1, or print(self.is_cool).

    There is no need to specify a type hint if a reactive attribute has a default value, as type checkers will assume the attribute is the same type as the default.
     
    You may want to add explicit type hints if the attribute type is a superset of the default type. For instance if you want to make an attribute optional. Here's how you would create a reactive string attribute which may be None:

    If you don't want an attribute to prompt a refresh or layout but you still want other reactive superpowers, you can use var to create an attribute. You can import var from textual.reactive.

This method should accept the incoming value as a positional argument, and return the value to set (which may be the same or a different value).
     
    A common use for this is to restrict numbers to a given range. The following example keeps a count. There is a button to increase the count, and a button to decrease it. The validation ensures that the count will never go above 10 or below zero.

    Note the compute_color method which combines the color components into a Color object. It will be recalculated when any of the red , green, or blue attributes are modified.
     
    When the result of compute_color changes, Textual will also call watch_color since color still has the watch method superpower.
     
    Note
     
    Textual will first attempt to call the compute method for a reactive attribute, followed by the validate method, and finally the watch method.
     
    Note
     
    It is best to avoid doing anything slow or CPU-intensive in a compute method. Textual calls compute methods on an object when any reactive attribute changes.

    Screens are containers for widgets that occupy the dimensions of your terminal. There can be many screens in a given app, but only one screen is active at a time.
     
    Textual requires that there be at least one screen object and will create one implicitly in the App class. If you don't change the screen, any widgets you mount or compose will be added to this default screen.

    You can create a screen by extending the Screen class which you can import from textual.screen. The screen may be styled in the same way as other widgets, with the exception that you can't modify the screen's dimensions (as these will always be the size of your terminal).
     
    Let's look at a simple example of writing a screen class to simulate Window's blue screen of death.

    The BSOD class above defines a screen with a key binding and compose method. These should be familiar as they work in the same way as apps.
     
    The app class has a new SCREENS class variable. Textual uses this class variable to associate a name with screen object (the name is used to reference screens in the screen API). Also in the app is a key binding associated with the action \"push_screen('bsod')\". The screen class has a similar action \"pop_screen\" bound to the Esc key. We will cover these actions below.
    "},{"location":"guide/screens/#named-screens","title":"Named screens","text":"
    You can associate a screen with a name by defining a SCREENS class variable in your app, which should be a dict that maps names on to Screen objects. The name of the screen may be used interchangeably with screen objects in much of the screen API.
     
    You can also install new named screens dynamically with the install_screen method. The following example installs the BSOD screen in a mount handler rather than from the SCREENS variable.

    Screens defined in SCREENS or added with install_screen are installed screens. Textual will keep these screens in memory for the lifetime of your app.

    "},{"location":"guide/screens/#screen-stack","title":"Screen stack","text":"
    Textual apps keep a stack of screens. You can think of this screen stack as a stack of paper, where only the very top sheet is visible. If you remove the top sheet, the paper underneath becomes visible. Screens work in a similar way.
     
    Note
     
    You can also make parts of the top screen translucent, so that deeper screens show through. See Screen opacity.
     
    The active screen (top of the stack) will render the screen and receive input events. The following API methods on the App class can manipulate this stack, and let you decide which screen the user can interact with.

    Note the request_quit action in the app which pushes a new instance of QuitScreen. This makes the quit screen active. If you click Cancel, the quit screen calls pop_screen to return the default screen. This also removes and deletes the QuitScreen object.
     
    There are two flaws with this modal screen, which we can fix in the same way.
     
    The first flaw is that the app adds a new quit screen every time you press Q, even when the quit screen is still visible. Consequently if you press Q three times, you will have to click Cancel three times to get back to the main screen. This is because bindings defined on App are always checked, and we call push_screen for every press of Q.
     
    The second flaw is that the modal dialog doesn't look modal. There is no indication that the main interface is still there, waiting to become active again.
     
    We can solve both those issues by replacing our use of Screen with ModalScreen. This screen sub-class will prevent key bindings on the app from being processed. It also sets a background with a little alpha to allow the previous screen to show through.
     
    Let's see what happens when we use ModalScreen.

    It is a common requirement for screens to be able to return data. For instance, you may want a screen to show a dialog and have the result of that dialog processed after the screen has been popped.
     
    To return data from a screen, call dismiss() on the screen with the data you wish to return. This will pop the screen and invoke a callback set when the screen was pushed (with push_screen).
     
    Let's modify the previous example to use dismiss rather than an explicit pop_screen.

    In the on_button_pressed message handler we call dismiss with a boolean that indicates if the user has chosen to quit the app. This boolean is passed to the check_quit function we provided when QuitScreen was pushed.
     
    Although this example behaves the same as the previous code, it is more flexible because it has removed responsibility for exiting from the modal screen to the caller. This makes it easier for the app to perform any cleanup actions prior to exiting, for example.
     
    Returning data in this way can help keep your code manageable by making it easy to re-use your Screen classes in other contexts.

    You may have noticed in the previous example that we changed the base class to ModalScreen[bool]. The addition of [bool] adds typing information that tells the type checker to expect a boolean in the call to dismiss, and that any callback set in push_screen should also expect the same type. As always, typing is optional in Textual, but this may help you catch bugs.

    Some apps may benefit from having multiple screen stacks, rather than just one. Consider an app with a dashboard screen, a settings screen, and a help screen. These are independent in the sense that we don't want to prevent the user from switching between them, even if there are one or more modal screens on the screen stack. But we may still want each individual screen to have a navigation stack where we can push and pop screens.
     
    In Textual we can manage this with modes. A mode is simply a named screen stack, which we can switch between as required. When we switch modes, the topmost screen in the new mode becomes the active visible screen.
     
    The following diagram illustrates such an app with modes. On startup the app switches to the \"dashboard\" mode which makes the top of the stack visible.

    To add modes to your app, define a MODES class variable in your App class which should be a dict that maps the name of the mode on to either a screen object, a callable that returns a screen, or the name of an installed screen. However you specify it, the values in MODES set the base screen for each mode's screen stack.
     
    You can switch between these screens at any time by calling App.switch_mode. When you switch to a new mode, the topmost screen in the new stack becomes visible. Any calls to App.push_screen or App.pop_screen will affect only the active mode.
     
    Let's look at an example with modes:
     modes01.pyOutputOutput (after pressing S) 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Placeholder\nclass DashboardScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Placeholder(\"Dashboard Screen\")\nyield Footer()\nclass SettingsScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Placeholder(\"Settings Screen\")\nyield Footer()\nclass HelpScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Placeholder(\"Help Screen\")\nyield Footer()\nclass ModesApp(App):\nBINDINGS = [\n(\"d\", \"switch_mode('dashboard')\", \"Dashboard\"),  # (1)!\n(\"s\", \"switch_mode('settings')\", \"Settings\"),\n(\"h\", \"switch_mode('help')\", \"Help\"),\n]\nMODES = {\n\"dashboard\": DashboardScreen,  # (2)!\n\"settings\": SettingsScreen,\n\"help\": HelpScreen,\n}\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.switch_mode(\"dashboard\")  # (3)!\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ModesApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. switch_mode is a builtin action to switch modes.
      2.  
    2. Associates DashboardScreen with the name \"dashboard\".
      3.  
    3. Switches to the dashboard mode.
      4.

    Here we have defined three screens. One for a dashboard, one for settings, and one for help. We've bound keys to each of these screens, so the user can switch between the screens.
     
    Pressing D, S, or H switches between these modes.

    Every Textual widget class provides a styles object which contains a number of attributes. These attributes tell Textual how the widget should be displayed. Setting any of these attributes will update the screen accordingly.
     
    Note
     
    These docs use the term screen to describe the contents of the terminal, which will typically be a window on your desktop.
     
    Let's look at a simple example which sets styles on screen (a special widget that represents the screen).
     screen.py
    from textual.app import App\nclass ScreenApp(App):\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = \"darkblue\"\nself.screen.styles.border = (\"heavy\", \"white\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ScreenApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The first line sets the background style to \"darkblue\" which will change the background color to dark blue. There are a few other ways of setting color which we will explore later.
     
    The second line sets border to a tuple of (\"heavy\", \"white\") which tells Textual to draw a white border with a style of \"heavy\". Running this code will show the following:

    Setting styles on screen is useful, but to create most user interfaces we will also need to apply styles to other widgets.
     
    The following example adds a static widget which we will apply some styles to:
     widget.py

    Widgets will occupy the full width of their container and as many lines as required to fit in the vertical direction.
     
    Note how the combined height of the widget is three rows in the terminal. This is because a border adds two rows (and two columns). If you were to remove the line that sets the border style, the widget would occupy a single row.
     
    Information
     
    Widgets will wrap text by default. If you were to replace \"Textual\" with a long paragraph of text, the widget will expand downwards to fit.

    There are a number of style attributes which accept colors. The most commonly used are color which sets the default color of text on a widget, and background which sets the background color (beneath the text).
     
    You can set a color value to one of a number of pre-defined color constants, such as \"crimson\", \"lime\", and \"palegreen\". You can find a full list in the Color API.
     
    Here's how you would set the screen background to lime:
     
    self.screen.styles.background = \"lime\"\n
     
    In addition to color names, you can also use any of the following ways of expressing a color:
     
       
    • RGB hex colors starts with a # followed by three pairs of one or two hex digits; one for the red, green, and blue color components. For example, #f00 is an intense red color, and #9932CC is dark orchid.
      •  
    • RGB decimal color start with rgb followed by a tuple of three numbers in the range 0 to 255. For example rgb(255,0,0) is intense red, and rgb(153,50,204) is dark orchid.
      •  
    • HSL colors start with hsl followed by a angle between 0 and 360 and two percentage values, representing Hue, Saturation and Lightness. For example hsl(0,100%,50%) is intense red and hsl(280,60%,49%) is dark orchid.
      •  
     
    The background and color styles also accept a Color object which can be used to create colors dynamically.
     
    The following example adds three widgets and sets their color styles.
     colors01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass ColorApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nself.widget1 = Static(\"Textual One\")\nyield self.widget1\nself.widget2 = Static(\"Textual Two\")\nyield self.widget2\nself.widget3 = Static(\"Textual Three\")\nyield self.widget3\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.widget1.styles.background = \"#9932CC\"\nself.widget2.styles.background = \"hsl(150,42.9%,49.4%)\"\nself.widget2.styles.color = \"blue\"\nself.widget3.styles.background = Color(191, 78, 96)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ColorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here is the output:
     
     ColorApp Textual\u00a0One Textual\u00a0Two Textual\u00a0Three 
    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#alpha","title":"Alpha","text":"
    Textual represents color internally as a tuple of three values for the red, green, and blue components.
     
    Textual supports a common fourth value called alpha which can make a color translucent. If you set alpha on a background color, Textual will blend the background with the color beneath it. If you set alpha on the text color, then Textual will blend the text with the background color.
     
    There are a few ways you can set alpha on a color in Textual.
     
       
    • You can set the alpha value of a color by adding a fourth digit or pair of digits to a hex color. The extra digits form an alpha component which ranges from 0 for completely transparent to 255 (completely opaque). Any value between 0 and 255 will be translucent. For example \"#9932CC7f\" is a dark orchid which is roughly 50% translucent.
      •  
    • You can also set alpha with the rgba format, which is identical to rgb with the additional of a fourth value that should be between 0 and 1, where 0 is invisible and 1 is opaque. For example \"rgba(192,78,96,0.5)\".
      •  
    • You can add the a parameter on a Color object. For example Color(192, 78, 96, a=0.5) creates a translucent dark orchid.
      •  
     
    The following example shows what happens when you set alpha on background colors:
     colors01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass ColorApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nself.widgets = [Static(\"\") for n in range(10)]\nyield from self.widgets\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nfor index, widget in enumerate(self.widgets, 1):\nalpha = index * 0.1\nwidget.update(f\"alpha={alpha:.1f}\")\nwidget.styles.background = Color(191, 78, 96, a=alpha)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ColorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Notice that at an alpha of 0.1 the background almost matches the screen, but at 1.0 it is a solid color.
     
     ColorApp alpha=0.1 alpha=0.2 alpha=0.3 alpha=0.4 alpha=0.5 alpha=0.6 alpha=0.7 alpha=0.8 alpha=0.9 alpha=1.0

    Widgets occupy a rectangular region of the screen, which may be as small as a single character or as large as the screen (potentially larger if scrolling is enabled).
    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#box-model","title":"Box Model","text":"
    The following styles influence the dimensions of a widget.
     
       
    • width and height define the size of the widget.
      •  
    • padding adds optional space around the content area.
      •  
    • border draws an optional rectangular border around the padding and the content area.
      •  
     
    Additionally, the margin style adds space around a widget's border, which isn't technically part of the widget, but provides visual separation between widgets.
     
    Together these styles compose the widget's box model. The following diagram shows how these settings are combined:

    Setting the width restricts the number of columns used by a widget, and setting the height restricts the number of rows. Let's look at an example which sets both dimensions.
     dimensions01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nTEXT = \"\"\"I must not fear.\nFear is the mind-killer.\nFear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.\nI will face my fear.\nI will permit it to pass over me and through me.\nAnd when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.\nWhere the fear has gone there will be nothing.

    This code produces the following result.
     
     DimensionsApp I\u00a0must\u00a0not\u00a0fear. Fear\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0mind-killer. Fear\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0little-death\u00a0that\u00a0 brings\u00a0total\u00a0obliteration.

    Note how the text wraps in the widget, and is cropped because it doesn't fit in the space provided.
    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#auto-dimensions","title":"Auto dimensions","text":"
    In practice, we generally want the size of a widget to adapt to its content, which we can do by setting a dimension to \"auto\".
     
    Let's set the height to auto and see what happens.
     dimensions02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nTEXT = \"\"\"I must not fear.\nFear is the mind-killer.\nFear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.\nI will face my fear.\nI will permit it to pass over me and through me.\nAnd when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.\nWhere the fear has gone there will be nothing.

    If you run this you will see the height of the widget now grows to accommodate the full text:

    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#units","title":"Units","text":"
    Textual offers a few different units which allow you to specify dimensions relative to the screen or container. Relative units can better make use of available space if the user resizes the terminal.
     
       
    • Percentage units are given as a number followed by a percent (%) symbol and will set a dimension to a proportion of the widget's parent size. For instance, setting width to \"50%\" will cause a widget to be half the width of its parent.
      •  
    • View units are similar to percentage units, but explicitly reference a dimension. The vw unit sets a dimension to a percentage of the terminal width, and vh sets a dimension to a percentage of the terminal height.
      •  
    • The w unit sets a dimension to a percentage of the available width (which may be smaller than the terminal size if the widget is within another widget).
      •  
    • The h unit sets a dimension to a percentage of the available height.
      •  
     
    The following example demonstrates applying percentage units:
     dimensions03.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nTEXT = \"\"\"I must not fear.\nFear is the mind-killer.\nFear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.\nI will face my fear.\nI will permit it to pass over me and through me.\nAnd when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.\nWhere the fear has gone there will be nothing.

    With the width set to \"50%\" and the height set to \"80%\", the widget will keep those relative dimensions when resizing the terminal window:

    Percentage units can be problematic for some relative values. For instance, if we want to divide the screen into thirds, we would have to set a dimension to 33.3333333333% which is awkward. Textual supports fr units which are often better than percentage-based units for these situations.
     
    When specifying fr units for a given dimension, Textual will divide the available space by the sum of the fr units on that dimension. That space will then be divided amongst the widgets as a proportion of their individual fr values.
     
    Let's look at an example. We will create two widgets, one with a height of \"2fr\" and one with a height of \"1fr\".

    The total fr units for height is 3. The first widget will have a screen height of two thirds because its height style is set to 2fr. The second widget's height style is 1fr so its screen height will be one third. Here's what that looks like.

    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#box-sizing","title":"Box sizing","text":"
    When you set padding or border it reduces the size of the widget's content area. In other words, setting padding or border won't change the width or height of the widget.
     
    This is generally desirable when you arrange things on screen as you can add border or padding without breaking your layout. Occasionally though you may want to keep the size of the content area constant and grow the size of the widget to fit padding and border. The box-sizing style allows you to switch between these two modes.
     
    If you set box_sizing to \"content-box\" then space required for padding and border will be added to the widget dimensions. The default value of box_sizing is \"border-box\". Compare the box model diagram for content-box to the to the box model for border-box.

    The following example creates two widgets with a width of 30, a height of 6, and a border and padding of 1. The first widget has the default box_sizing (\"border-box\"). The second widget sets box_sizing to \"content-box\".

    The padding and border of the first widget is subtracted from the height leaving only 2 lines in the content area. The second widget also has a height of 6, but the padding and border adds additional height so that the content area remains 6 lines.

    Margin is similar to padding in that it adds space, but unlike padding, margin is outside of the widget's border. It is used to add space between widgets.
     
    The following example creates two widgets, each with a margin of 2.
     margin01.py

    Note
     
    In the above example both widgets have a margin of 2, but there are only 2 lines of space between the widgets. This is because margins of consecutive widgets overlap. In other words when there are two widgets next to each other Textual picks the greater of the two margins.

    We've covered the most fundamental styles used by Textual apps, but there are many more which you can use to customize many aspects of how your app looks. See the Styles reference for a comprehensive list.
     
    In the next chapter we will discuss Textual CSS which is a powerful way of applying styles to widgets that keeps your code free of style attributes.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/","title":"Widgets","text":"
    In this chapter we will explore widgets in more detail, and how you can create custom widgets of your own.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#what-is-a-widget","title":"What is a widget?","text":"
    A widget is a component of your UI responsible for managing a rectangular region of the screen. Widgets may respond to events in much the same way as an app. In many respects, widgets are like mini-apps.
     
    Information
     
    Every widget runs in its own asyncio task.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#custom-widgets","title":"Custom widgets","text":"
    There is a growing collection of builtin widgets in Textual, but you can build entirely custom widgets that work in the same way.
     
    The first step in building a widget is to import and extend a widget class. This can either be Widget which is the base class of all widgets, or one of its subclasses.
     
    Let's create a simple custom widget to display a greeting.
     hello01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult, RenderResult\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass Hello(Widget):\n\"\"\"Display a greeting.\"\"\"\ndef render(self) -> RenderResult:\nreturn \"Hello, [b]World[/b]!\"\nclass CustomApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Hello()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CustomApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The three highlighted lines define a custom widget class with just a render() method. Textual will display whatever is returned from render in the content area of your widget. We have returned a string in the code above, but there are other possible return types which we will cover later.
     
    Note that the text contains tags in square brackets, i.e. [b]. This is console markup which allows you to embed various styles within your content. If you run this you will find that World is in bold.
     
     CustomApp Hello,\u00a0World! 
     
    This (very simple) custom widget may be styled in the same way as builtin widgets, and targeted with CSS. Let's add some CSS to this app.
     hello02.pyhello02.tcss hello02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult, RenderResult\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass Hello(Widget):\n\"\"\"Display a greeting.\"\"\"\ndef render(self) -> RenderResult:\nreturn \"Hello, [b]World[/b]!\"\nclass CustomApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"hello02.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Hello()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CustomApp()\napp.run()\n
     hello02.tcss

    The addition of the CSS has completely transformed our custom widget.

    While you can extend the Widget class, a subclass will typically be a better starting point. The Static class is a widget subclass which caches the result of render, and provides an update() method to update the content area.
     
    Let's use Static to create a widget which cycles through \"hello\" in various languages.
     hello03.pyhello03.tcssOutput hello03.py

    Note that there is no render() method on this widget. The Static class is handling the render for us. Instead we call update() when we want to update the content within the widget.
     
    The next_word method updates the greeting. We call this method from the mount handler to get the first word, and from a click handler to cycle through the greetings when we click the widget.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#default-css","title":"Default CSS","text":"
    When building an app it is best to keep your CSS in an external file. This allows you to see all your CSS in one place, and to enable live editing. However if you intend to distribute a widget (via PyPI for instance) it can be convenient to bundle the code and CSS together. You can do this by adding a DEFAULT_CSS class variable inside your widget class.
     
    Textual's builtin widgets bundle CSS in this way, which is why you can see nicely styled widgets without having to copy any CSS code.
     
    Here's the Hello example again, this time the widget has embedded default CSS:

    CSS defined within DEFAULT_CSS has an automatically lower specificity than CSS read from either the App's CSS class variable or an external stylesheet. In practice this means that your app's CSS will take precedence over any CSS bundled with widgets.

    Text in a widget may be marked up with links which perform an action when clicked. Links in console markup use the following format:

    The @click tag introduces a click handler, which runs the app.bell action.

    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#border-titles","title":"Border titles","text":"
    Every widget has a border_title and border_subtitle attribute. Setting border_title will display text within the top border, and setting border_subtitle will display text within the bottom border.
     
    Note
     
    Border titles will only display if the widget has a border enabled.
     
    The default value for these attributes is empty string, which disables the title. You can change the default value for the title attributes with the BORDER_TITLE and BORDER_SUBTITLE class variables.
     
    Let's demonstrate setting a title, both as a class variable and a instance variable:

    Note that titles are limited to a single line of text. If the supplied text is too long to fit within the widget, it will be cropped (and an ellipsis added).
     
    There are a number of styles that influence how titles are displayed (color and alignment). See the style reference for details.

    In previous examples we've set strings as content for Widgets. You can also use special objects called renderables for advanced visuals. You can use any renderable defined in Rich or third party libraries.
     
    Lets make a widget that uses a Rich table for its content. The following app is a solution to the classic fizzbuzz problem often used to screen software engineers in job interviews. The problem is this: Count up from 1 to 100, when the number is divisible by 3, output \"fizz\"; when the number is divisible by 5, output \"buzz\"; and when the number is divisible by both 3 and 5 output \"fizzbuzz\".
     
    This app will \"play\" fizz buzz by displaying a table of the first 15 numbers and columns for fizz and buzz.

    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#line-api","title":"Line API","text":"
    A downside of widgets that return Rich renderables is that Textual will redraw the entire widget when its state is updated or it changes size. If a widget is large enough to require scrolling, or updates frequently, then this redrawing can make your app feel less responsive. Textual offers an alternative API which reduces the amount of work required to refresh a widget, and makes it possible to update portions of a widget (as small as a single character) without a full redraw. This is known as the line API.
     
    Note
     
    The Line API requires a little more work that typical Rich renderables, but can produce powerful widgets such as the builtin DataTable which can handle thousands or even millions of rows.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#render-line-method","title":"Render Line method","text":"
    To build a widget with the line API, implement a render_line method rather than a render method. The render_line method takes a single integer argument y which is an offset from the top of the widget, and should return a Strip object containing that line's content. Textual will call this method as required to get content for every row of characters in the widget.

    Let's look at an example before we go in to the details. The following Textual app implements a widget with the line API that renders a checkerboard pattern. This might form the basis of a chess / checkers game. Here's the code:
     checker01.pyOutput checker01.py
    from rich.segment import Segment\nfrom rich.style import Style\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.strip import Strip\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass CheckerBoard(Widget):\n\"\"\"Render an 8x8 checkerboard.\"\"\"\ndef render_line(self, y: int) -> Strip:\n\"\"\"Render a line of the widget. y is relative to the top of the widget.\"\"\"\nrow_index = y // 4  # A checkerboard square consists of 4 rows\nif row_index >= 8:  # Generate blank lines when we reach the end\nreturn Strip.blank(self.size.width)\nis_odd = row_index % 2  # Used to alternate the starting square on each row\nwhite = Style.parse(\"on white\")  # Get a style object for a white background\nblack = Style.parse(\"on black\")  # Get a style object for a black background\n# Generate a list of segments with alternating black and white space characters\nsegments = [\nSegment(\" \" * 8, black if (column + is_odd) % 2 else white)\nfor column in range(8)\n]\nstrip = Strip(segments, 8 * 8)\nreturn strip\nclass BoardApp(App):\n\"\"\"A simple app to show our widget.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield CheckerBoard()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = BoardApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     BoardApp 
     
    The render_line method above calculates a Strip for every row of characters in the widget. Each strip contains alternating black and white space characters which form the squares in the checkerboard.
     
    You may have noticed that the checkerboard widget makes use of some objects we haven't covered before. Let's explore those.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#segment-and-style","title":"Segment and Style","text":"
    A Segment is a class borrowed from the Rich project. It is small object (actually a named tuple) which bundles a string to be displayed and a Style which tells Textual how the text should look (color, bold, italic etc).
     
    Let's look at a simple segment which would produce the text \"Hello, World!\" in bold.

    Both Rich and Textual work with segments to generate content. A Textual app is the result of combining hundreds, or perhaps thousands, of segments,
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#strips","title":"Strips","text":"
    A Strip is a container for a number of segments covering a single line (or row) in the Widget. A Strip will contain at least one segment, but often many more.
     
    A Strip is constructed from a list of Segment objects. Here's now you might construct a strip that displays the text \"Hello, World!\", but with the second word in bold:
     
    segments = [\nSegment(\"Hello, \"),\nSegment(\"World\", Style(bold=True)),\nSegment(\"!\")\n]\nstrip = Strip(segments)\n
     
    The first and third Segment omit a style, which results in the widget's default style being used. The second segment has a style object which applies bold to the text \"World\". If this were part of a widget it would produce the text: Hello, World!
     
    The Strip constructor has an optional second parameter, which should be the cell length of the strip. The strip above has a length of 13, so we could have constructed it like this:
     
    strip = Strip(segments, 13)\n
     
    Note that the cell length parameter is not the total number of characters in the string. It is the number of terminal \"cells\". Some characters (such as Asian language characters and certain emoji) take up the space of two Western alphabet characters. If you don't know in advance the number of cells your segments will occupy, it is best to omit the length parameter so that Textual calculates it automatically.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#component-classes","title":"Component classes","text":"
    When applying styles to widgets we can use CSS to select the child widgets. Widgets rendered with the line API don't have children per-se, but we can still use CSS to apply styles to parts of our widget by defining component classes. Component classes are associated with a widget by defining a COMPONENT_CLASSES class variable which should be a set of strings containing CSS class names.
     
    In the checkerboard example above we hard-coded the color of the squares to \"white\" and \"black\". But what if we want to create a checkerboard with different colors? We can do this by defining two component classes, one for the \"white\" squares and one for the \"dark\" squares. This will allow us to change the colors with CSS.
     
    The following example replaces our hard-coded colors with component classes.

     BoardApp 
     
    The COMPONENT_CLASSES class variable above adds two class names: checkerboard--white-square and checkerboard--black-square. These are set in the DEFAULT_CSS but can modified in the app's CSS class variable or external CSS.
     
    Tip
     
    Component classes typically begin with the name of the widget followed by two hyphens. This is a convention to avoid potential name clashes.
     
    The render_line method calls get_component_rich_style to get Style objects from the CSS, which we apply to the segments to create a more colorful looking checkerboard.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#scrolling","title":"Scrolling","text":"
    A Line API widget can be made to scroll by extending the ScrollView class (rather than Widget). The ScrollView class will do most of the work, but we will need to manage the following details:
     
       
    1. The ScrollView class requires a virtual size, which is the size of the scrollable content and should be set via the virtual_size property. If this is larger than the widget then Textual will add scrollbars.
      2.  
    2. We need to update the render_line method to generate strips for the visible area of the widget, taking into account the current position of the scrollbars.
      3.  
     
    Let's add scrolling to our checkerboard example. A standard 8 x 8 board isn't sufficient to demonstrate scrolling so we will make the size of the board configurable and set it to 100 x 100, for a total of 10,000 squares.

     BoardApp \u2585\u2585 \u258b 
     
    The virtual size is set in the constructor to match the total size of the board, which will enable scrollbars (unless you have your terminal zoomed out very far). You can update the virtual_size attribute dynamically as required, but our checkerboard isn't going to change size so we only need to set it once.
     
    The render_line method gets the scroll offset which is an Offset containing the current position of the scrollbars. We add scroll_offset.y to the y argument because y is relative to the top of the widget, and we need a Y coordinate relative to the scrollable content.
     
    We also need to compensate for the position of the horizontal scrollbar. This is done in the call to strip.crop which crops the strip to the visible area between scroll_x and scroll_x + self.size.width.
     
    Tip

    The Line API makes it possible to refresh parts of a widget, as small as a single character. Refreshing smaller regions makes updates more efficient, and keeps your widget feeling responsive.
     
    To demonstrate this we will update the checkerboard to highlight the square under the mouse pointer. Here's the code:

    We've added a style to the checkerboard which is the color of the highlighted square, with a default of \"darkred\". We will need this when we come to render the highlighted square.
     
    We've also added a reactive variable called cursor_square which will hold the coordinate of the square underneath the mouse. Note that we have used var which gives us reactive superpowers but won't automatically refresh the whole widget, because we want to update only the squares under the cursor.
     
    The on_mouse_move handler takes the mouse coordinates from the MouseMove object and calculates the coordinate of the square underneath the mouse. There's a little math here, so let's break it down.
     
       
    • The event contains the coordinates of the mouse relative to the top left of the widget, but we need the coordinate relative to the top left of board which depends on the position of the scrollbars. We can perform this conversion by adding self.scroll_offset to event.offset.
      •  
    • Once we have the board coordinate underneath the mouse we divide the x coordinate by 8 and divide the y coordinate by 4 to give us the coordinate of a square.
      •  
     
    If the cursor square coordinate calculated in on_mouse_move changes, Textual will call watch_cursor_square with the previous coordinate and new coordinate of the square. This method works out the regions of the widget to update and essentially does the reverse of the steps we took to go from mouse coordinates to square coordinates. The get_square_region function calculates a Region object for each square and uses them as a positional argument in a call to refresh. Passing Region objects to refresh tells Textual to update only the cells underneath those regions, and not the entire widget.
     
    Note
     
    Textual is smart about performing updates. If you refresh multiple regions, Textual will combine them into as few non-overlapping regions as possible.
     
    The final step is to update the render_line method to use the cursor style when rendering the square underneath the mouse.
     
    You should find that if you move the mouse over the widget now, it will highlight the square underneath the mouse pointer in red.

    Widgets may be combined to create new widgets with additional features. Such widgets are known as compound widgets. The stopwatch in the tutorial is an example of a compound widget.
     
    A compound widget can be used like any other widget. The only thing that differs is that when you build a compound widget, you write a compose() method which yields child widgets, rather than implement a render or render_line method.
     
    The following is an example of a compound widget.
     compound01.pyOutput compound01.py

    Widgets rarely exist in isolation, and often need to communicate or exchange data with other parts of your app. This is not difficult to do, but there is a risk that widgets can become dependant on each other, making it impossible to reuse a widget without copying a lot of dependant code.
     
    In this section we will show how to design and build a fully-working app, while keeping widgets reusable.

    We are going to build a byte editor which allows you to enter a number in both decimal and binary. You could use this a teaching aid for binary numbers.
     
    Here's a sketch of what the app should ultimately look like:

    There are plenty of resources on the web, such as this excellent video from Khan Academy if you want to brush up on binary numbers.

    There are three types of built-in widget in the sketch, namely (Input, Label, and Switch). Rather than manage these as a single collection of widgets, we can arrange them in to logical groups with compound widgets. This will make our app easier to work with.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#identifying-components","title":"Identifying components","text":"
    We will divide this UI into three compound widgets:
     
       
    1. BitSwitch for a switch with a numeric label.
      2.  
    2. ByteInput which contains 8 BitSwitch widgets.
      3.  
    3. ByteEditor which contains a ByteInput and an Input to show the decimal value.
      4.  
     
    This is not the only way we could implement our design with compound widgets. So why these three widgets? As a rule of thumb, a widget should handle one piece of data, which is why we have an independent widget for a bit, a byte, and the decimal value.

    Note the compose() methods of each of the widgets.
     
       
    •  
      The BitSwitch yields a Label which displays the bit number, and a Switch control for that bit. The default CSS for BitSwitch aligns its children vertically, and sets the label's text-align to center.
       
      •  
    •  
      The ByteInput yields 8 BitSwitch widgets and arranges them horizontally. It also adds a focus-within style in its CSS to draw an accent border when any of the switches are focused.
       
      •  
    •  
      The ByteEditor yields a ByteInput and an Input control. The default CSS stacks the two controls on top of each other to divide the screen in to two parts.
       
      •  
     
    With these three widgets, the DOM for our app will look like this:

    Now that we have the design in place, we can implement the behavior.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#data-flow","title":"Data flow","text":"
    We want to ensure that our widgets are re-usable, which we can do by following the guideline of \"attributes down, messages up\". This means that a widget can update a child by setting its attributes or calling its methods, but widgets should only ever send messages to their parent (or other ancestors).
     
    Info
     
    This pattern of only setting attributes in one direction and using messages for the opposite direction is known as uni-directional data flow.
     
    In practice, this means that to update a child widget you get a reference to it and use it like any other Python object. Here's an example of an action that updates a child widget:
     
    def action_set_true(self):\nself.query_one(Switch).value = 1\n
     
    If a child needs to update a parent, it should send a message with post_message.
     
    Here's an example of posting message:
     
    def on_click(self):\nself.post_message(MyWidget.Change(active=True))\n
     
    Note that attributes down and messages up means that you can't modify widgets on the same level directly. If you want to modify a sibling, you will need to send a message to the parent, and the parent would make the changes.

    • The BitSwitch widget now has an on_switch_changed method which will handle a Switch.Changed message, sent when the user clicks a switch. We use this to store the new value of the bit, and sent a new custom message, BitSwitch.BitChanged.
      •  
    • The ByteEditor widget handles the BitSwitch.Changed message by calculating the decimal value and setting it on the input.
      •

    1. When the BitSwitch's value changed, we want to update the builtin Switch to match.
      2.  
    2. Ensure the value is in a the range of a byte.
      3.  
    3. Handle the Input.Changed event when the user modified the value in the input.
      4.  
    4. When the ByteEditor value changes, update all the switches to match.
      5.  
    5. Prevent the BitChanged message from being sent.
      6.

    • When the user edits the input, the Input widget sends a Changed event, which we handle with on_input_changed by setting self.value, which is a reactive value we added to ByteEditor.
      •  
    • If the value has changed, Textual will call watch_value which sets the value of each of the eight switches. Because we are working with children of the ByteEditor, we can set attributes directly without going via a message.

    In this chapter we will explore the topic of concurrency and how to use Textual's Worker API to make it easier.
     
    The Worker API was added in version 0.18.0
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#concurrency","title":"Concurrency","text":"
    There are many interesting uses for Textual which require reading data from an internet service. When an app requests data from the network it is important that it doesn't prevent the user interface from updating. In other words, the requests should be concurrent (happen at the same time) as the UI updates.
     
    Managing this concurrency is a tricky topic, in any language or framework. Even for experienced developers, there are gotchas which could make your app lock up or behave oddly. Textual's Worker API makes concurrency far less error prone and easier to reason about.

    If you were to run this app, you should see weather information update as you type. But you may find that the input is not as responsive as usual, with a noticeable delay between pressing a key and seeing it echoed in screen. This is because we are making a request to the weather API within a message handler, and the app will not be able to process other messages until the request has completed (which may be anything from a few hundred milliseconds to several seconds later).
     
    To resolve this we can use the run_worker method which runs the update_weather coroutine (async def function) in the background. Here's the code:
     weather02.py
    import httpx\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.run_worker(self.update_weather(message.value), exclusive=True)\nasync def update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nasync with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:\nresponse = await client.get(url)\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response.text)\nweather_widget.update(weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nweather_widget.update(\"\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    This one line change will make typing as responsive as you would expect from any app.
     
    The run_worker method schedules a new worker to run update_weather, and returns a Worker object. This happens almost immediately, so it won't prevent other messages from being processed. The update_weather function is now running concurrently, and will finish a second or two later.
     
    Tip
     
    The Worker object has a few useful methods on it, but you can often ignore it as we did in weather02.py.
     
    The call to run_worker also sets exclusive=True which solves an additional problem with concurrent network requests: when pulling data from the network, there is no guarantee that you will receive the responses in the same order as the requests. For instance, if you start typing \"Paris\", you may get the response for \"Pari\" after the response for \"Paris\", which could show the wrong weather information. The exclusive flag tells Textual to cancel all previous workers before starting the new one.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#work-decorator","title":"Work decorator","text":"
    An alternative to calling run_worker manually is the work decorator, which automatically generates a worker from the decorated method.
     
    Let's use this decorator in our weather app:
     weather03.py
    import httpx\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual import work\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.update_weather(message.value)\n@work(exclusive=True)\nasync def update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nasync with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:\nresponse = await client.get(url)\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response.text)\nweather_widget.update(weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nweather_widget.update(\"\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The addition of @work(exclusive=True) converts the update_weather coroutine into a regular function which when called will create and start a worker. Note that even though update_weather is an async def function, the decorator means that we don't need to use the await keyword when calling it.
     
    Tip
     
    The decorator takes the same arguments as run_worker.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#worker-return-values","title":"Worker return values","text":"
    When you run a worker, the return value of the function won't be available until the work has completed. You can check the return value of a worker with the worker.result attribute which will initially be None, but will be replaced with the return value of the function when it completes.
     
    If you need the return value you can call worker.wait which is a coroutine that will wait for the work to complete. But note that if you do this in a message handler it will also prevent the widget from updating until the worker returns. Often a better approach is to handle worker events which will notify your app when a worker completes, and the return value is available without waiting.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#cancelling-workers","title":"Cancelling workers","text":"
    You can cancel a worker at any time before it is finished by calling Worker.cancel. This will raise a CancelledError within the coroutine, and should cause it to exit prematurely.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#worker-errors","title":"Worker errors","text":"
    The default behavior when a worker encounters an exception is to exit the app and display the traceback in the terminal. You can also create workers which will not immediately exit on exception, by setting exit_on_error=False on the call to run_worker or the @work decorator.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#worker-lifetime","title":"Worker lifetime","text":"
    Workers are managed by a single WorkerManager instance, which you can access via app.workers. This is a container-like object which you iterate over to see your active workers.
     
    Workers are tied to the DOM node (widget, screen, or app) where they are created. This means that if you remove the widget or pop the screen where they are created, then the tasks will be cleaned up automatically. Similarly if you exit the app, any running tasks will be cancelled.
     
    Worker objects have a state attribute which will contain a WorkerState enumeration that indicates what the worker is doing at any given time. The state attribute will contain one of the following values:
     Value Description PENDING The worker was created, but not yet started. RUNNING The worker is currently running. CANCELLED The worker was cancelled and is no longer running. ERROR The worker raised an exception, and worker.error will contain the exception. SUCCESS The worker completed successful, and worker.result will contain the return value.

    When a worker changes state, it sends a Worker.StateChanged event to the widget where the worker was created. You can handle this message by defining an on_worker_state_changed event handler. For instance, here is how we might log the state of the worker that updates the weather:
     weather04.py
    import httpx\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual import work\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nfrom textual.worker import Worker\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.update_weather(message.value)\n@work(exclusive=True)\nasync def update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nasync with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:\nresponse = await client.get(url)\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response.text)\nweather_widget.update(weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nweather_widget.update(\"\")\ndef on_worker_state_changed(self, event: Worker.StateChanged) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the worker state changes.\"\"\"\nself.log(event)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    If you run the above code with textual you should see the worker lifetime events logged in the Textual console.
     
    textual run weather04.py --dev\n
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#thread-workers","title":"Thread workers","text":"
    In previous examples we used run_worker or the work decorator in conjunction with coroutines. This works well if you are using an async API like httpx, but if your API doesn't support async you may need to use threads.
     
    What are threads?
     
    Threads are a form of concurrency supplied by your Operating System. Threads allow your code to run more than a single function simultaneously.
     
    You can create threads by setting thread=True on the run_worker method or the work decorator. The API for thread workers is identical to async workers, but there are a few differences you need to be aware of when writing code for thread workers.
     
    The first difference is that you should avoid calling methods on your UI directly, or setting reactive variables. You can work around this with the App.call_from_thread method which schedules a call in the main thread.
     
    The second difference is that you can't cancel threads in the same way as coroutines, but you can manually check if the worker was cancelled.
     
    Let's demonstrate thread workers by replacing httpx with urllib.request (in the standard library). The urllib module is not async aware, so we will need to use threads:
     weather05.py
    from urllib.request import Request, urlopen\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual import work\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nfrom textual.worker import Worker, get_current_worker\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.update_weather(message.value)\n@work(exclusive=True, thread=True)\ndef update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nworker = get_current_worker()\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nrequest = Request(url)\nrequest.add_header(\"User-agent\", \"CURL\")\nresponse_text = urlopen(request).read().decode(\"utf-8\")\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response_text)\nif not worker.is_cancelled:\nself.call_from_thread(weather_widget.update, weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nif not worker.is_cancelled:\nself.call_from_thread(weather_widget.update, \"\")\ndef on_worker_state_changed(self, event: Worker.StateChanged) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the worker state changes.\"\"\"\nself.log(event)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    In this example, the update_weather is not asynchronous (i.e. a regular function). The @work decorator has thread=True which makes it a thread worker. Note the use of get_current_worker which the function uses to check if it has been cancelled or not.
     
    Important
     
    Textual will raise an exception if you add the work decorator to a regular function without thread=True.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#posting-messages","title":"Posting messages","text":"
    Most Textual functions are not thread-safe which means you will need to use call_from_thread to run them from a thread worker. An exception would be post_message which is thread-safe. If your worker needs to make multiple updates to the UI, it is a good idea to send custom messages and let the message handler update the state of the UI.

    If you have ever needed to center something in a web page, you will be glad to know it is much easier in Textual.
     
    This article discusses a few different ways in which things can be centered, and the differences between them.
    "},{"location":"how-to/center-things/#aligning-widgets","title":"Aligning widgets","text":"
    The align rule will center a widget relative to one or both edges. This rule is applied to a container, and will impact how the container's children are arranged. Let's see this in practice with a trivial app containing a Static widget:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"Hello, World!\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here's the output:
     
     CenterApp Hello,\u00a0World! 
     
    The container of the widget is the screen, which has the align: center middle; rule applied. The center part tells Textual to align in the horizontal direction, and middle tells Textual to align in the vertical direction.
     
    The output may surprise you. The text appears to be aligned in the middle (i.e. vertical edge), but left aligned on the horizontal. This isn't a bug \u2014 I promise. Let's make a small change to reveal what is happening here. In the next example, we will add a background and a border to our text:
     
    Tip
     
    Adding a border is a very good way of visualizing layout issues, if something isn't behaving as you would expect.
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    #hello {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"Hello, World!\", id=\"hello\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The static widget will now have a blue background and white border:
     
     CenterApp \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eHello,\u00a0World!\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 
     
    Note the static widget is as wide as the screen. Since the widget is as wide as its container, there is no room for it to move in the horizontal direction.
     
    Info
     
    The align rule applies to widgets, not the text.
     
    In order to see the center alignment, we will have to make the widget smaller than the width of the screen. Let's set the width of the Static widget to auto, which will make the widget just wide enough to fit the content:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    #hello {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"Hello, World!\", id=\"hello\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    If you run this now, you should see the widget is aligned on both axis:
     
     CenterApp \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eHello,\u00a0World!\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 
    "},{"location":"how-to/center-things/#aligning-text","title":"Aligning text","text":"
    In addition to aligning widgets, you may also want to align text. In order to demonstrate the difference, lets update the example with some longer text. We will also set the width of the widget to something smaller, to force the text to wrap.

    Note how the widget is centered, but the text within it is flushed to the left edge. Left aligned text is the default, but you can also center the text with the text-align rule. Let's center align the longer text by setting this rule:

    There is one last rule that can help us center things. The content-align rule aligns content within a widget. It treats the text as a rectangular region and positions it relative to the space inside a widget's border.
     
    In order to see why we might need this rule, we need to make the Static widget larger than required to fit the text. Let's set the height of the Static widget to 9 to give the content room to move:

    Textual aligns a widget's content to the top border by default, which is why the space is below the text. We can tell Textual to align the content to the center by setting content-align: center middle;
     
    Note
     
    Strictly speaking, we only need to align the content vertically here (there is no room to move the content left or right) So we could have done content-align-vertical: middle;

    It's just as easy to align multiple widgets as it is a single widget. Applying align: center middle; to the parent widget (screen or other container) will align all its children.
     
    Let's create an example with two widgets. The following code adds two widgets with auto dimensions:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    .words {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"How about a nice game\", classes=\"words\")\nyield Static(\"of chess?\", classes=\"words\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    This produces the following output:
     
     CenterApp \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eHow\u00a0about\u00a0a\u00a0nice\u00a0game\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eof\u00a0chess?\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 
     
    We can center both those widgets by applying the align rule as before:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    .words {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"How about a nice game\", classes=\"words\")\nyield Static(\"of chess?\", classes=\"words\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here's the output:

    Note how the widgets are aligned as if they are a single group. In other words, their position relative to each other didn't change, just their position relative to the screen.
     
    If you do want to center each widget independently, you can place each widget inside its own container, and set align for those containers. Textual has a builtin Center container for just this purpose.
     
    Let's wrap our two widgets in a Center container:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Center\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    .words {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nwith Center():\nyield Static(\"How about a nice game\", classes=\"words\")\nwith Center():\nyield Static(\"of chess?\", classes=\"words\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n

    Keep the following in mind when you want to center content in Textual:
     
       
    • In order to center a widget, it needs to be smaller than its container.
      •  
    • The align rule is applied to the parent of the widget you want to center (i.e. the widget's container).
      •  
    • The text-align rule aligns text on a line by line basis.
      •  
    • The content-align rule aligns content within a widget.
      •  
    • Use the Center container if you want to align multiple widgets relative to each other.
      •  
    • Add a border if the alignment isn't working as you would expect.

    It's rough, but it's all we need.

    Like a sculpture with a block of marble, it is best to work from the outside towards the center. If your design has fixed elements (like a header, footer, or sidebar), start with those first.
     
    In our sketch we have a header and footer. Since these are the outermost widgets, we will begin by adding them.
     
    Tip
     
    Textual has builtin Header and Footer widgets which you could use in a real application.
     
    The following example defines an app, a screen, and our header and footer widgets. Since we're starting from scratch and don't have any functionality for our widgets, we are going to use the Placeholder widget to help us visualize our design.
     
    In a real app, we would replace these placeholders with more useful content.
     layout01.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):  # (1)!\npass\nclass Footer(Placeholder):  # (2)!\npass\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")  # (3)!\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")  # (4)!\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The Header widget extends Placeholder.
      2.  
    2. The footer widget extends Placeholder.
      3.  
    3. Creates the header widget (the id will be displayed within the placeholder widget).
      4.  
    4. Creates the footer widget.
      5.  
     
     LayoutApp #Header

    This app works, but the header and footer don't behave as expected. We want both of these widgets to be fixed to an edge of the screen and limited in height. In Textual this is known as docking which you can apply with the dock rule.
     
    We will dock the header and footer to the top and bottom edges of the screen respectively, by adding a little CSS to the widget classes:
     layout02.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     LayoutApp #Header #Footer 
     
    The DEFAULT_CSS class variable is used to set CSS directly in Python code. We could define these in an external CSS file, but writing the CSS inline like this can be convenient if it isn't too complex.
     
    When you dock a widget, it reduces the available area for other widgets. This means that Textual will automatically compensate for the 6 additional lines reserved for the header and footer.
    "},{"location":"how-to/design-a-layout/#tip-4-use-fr-units-for-flexible-things","title":"Tip 4. Use FR Units for flexible things","text":"
    After we've added the header and footer, we want the remaining space to be used for the main interface, which will contain the columns in the sketch. This area is flexible (will change according to the size of the terminal), so how do we ensure that it takes up precisely the space needed?
     
    The simplest way is to use fr units. By setting both the width and height to 1fr, we are telling Textual to divide the space equally amongst the remaining widgets. There is only a single widget, so that widget will fill all of the remaining space.
     
    Let's make that change.
     layout03.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass ColumnsContainer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    ColumnsContainer {\n        width: 1fr;\n        height: 1fr;\n        border: solid white;\n    }\n    \"\"\"  # (1)!\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nyield ColumnsContainer(id=\"Columns\")\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Here's where we set the width and height to 1fr. We also add a border just to illustrate the dimensions better.

    As you can see, the central Columns area will resize with the terminal window.
    "},{"location":"how-to/design-a-layout/#tip-5-use-containers","title":"Tip 5. Use containers","text":"
    Before we add content to the Columns area, we have an opportunity to simplify. Rather than extend Placeholder for our ColumnsContainer widget, we can use one of the builtin containers. A container is simply a widget designed to contain other widgets. Containers are styled with fr units to fill the remaining space so we won't need to add any more CSS.
     
    Let's replace the ColumnsContainer class in the previous example with a HorizontalScroll container, which also adds an automatic horizontal scrollbar.
     layout04.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import HorizontalScroll\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nyield HorizontalScroll()  # (1)!\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The builtin container widget.
      2.  
     
     LayoutApp #Header #Footer 
     
    The container will appear as blank space until we add some widgets to it.
     
    Let's add the columns to the HorizontalScroll. A column is itself a container which will have a vertical scrollbar, so we will define our Column by subclassing VerticalScroll. In a real app, these columns will likely be added dynamically from some kind of configuration, but let's add 4 to visualize the layout.
     
    We will also define a Tweet placeholder and add a few to each column.
     layout05.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import HorizontalScroll, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Tweet(Placeholder):\npass\nclass Column(VerticalScroll):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nfor tweet_no in range(1, 20):\nyield Tweet(id=f\"Tweet{tweet_no}\")\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nwith HorizontalScroll():\nyield Column()\nyield Column()\nyield Column()\nyield Column()\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     LayoutApp #Header #Tweet1#Tweet1#Tweet1#Tweet1 #Footer 
     
    Note from the output that each Column takes a quarter of the screen width. This happens because Column extends a container which has a width of 1fr.
     
    It makes more sense for a column in a Twitter / Mastodon client to use a fixed width. Let's set the width of the columns to 32.
     
    We also want to reduce the height of each \"tweet\". In the real app, you might set the height to \"auto\" so it fits the content, but lets set it to 5 lines for now.
     
    Here's the final example and a reminder of the sketch.

    A layout like this is a great starting point. In a real app, you would start replacing each of the placeholders with builtin or custom widgets.
    "},{"location":"how-to/design-a-layout/#summary","title":"Summary","text":"
    Layout is the first thing you will tackle when building a Textual app. The following tips will help you get started.
     
       
    1. Make a sketch (pen and paper is fine).
      2.  
    2. Work outside in. Start with the entire space of the terminal, add the outermost content first.
      3.  
    3. Dock fixed widgets. If the content doesn't move or scroll, you probably want to dock it.
      4.  
    4. Make use of fr for flexible space within layouts.
      5.  
    5. Use containers to contain other widgets, particularly if they scroll!
      6.

    The next example makes the difference between border and outline clearer by having three labels side-by-side. They contain the same text, have the same width and height, and are styled exactly the same up to their border and outline styles.

    1. Border (sub)titles can contain nested markup.
      2.  
    2. Long (sub)titles get truncated and occupy as much space as possible.
      3.  
    3. (Sub)titles can be stylised with Rich markup.
      4.  
    4. An empty (sub)title isn't displayed.
      5.  
    5. The markup can even contain Rich links.
      6.  
    6. If the widget does not have a border, the title and subtitle are not shown.
      7.  
    7. When the side borders are not set, the (sub)title will align with the edge of the widget.
      8.  
    8. The title and subtitle are aligned on the left and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the rightmost character of the border edge.
      9.  
    9. The title and subtitle are centered and very long, so they get truncated and are centered with one character of padding on each side.
      10.  
    10. The title and subtitle are aligned on the right and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the leftmost character of the border edge.
      11.  
    11. An auxiliary function to create labels with border title and subtitle.
      12.

    1. The default alignment for the title is left and the default alignment for the subtitle is right.
      2.  
    2. Specifying an alignment when the (sub)title is too long has no effect. (Although, it will have an effect if the (sub)title is shortened or if the widget is widened.)
      3.  
    3. Setting the alignment does not affect empty (sub)titles.
      4.  
    4. If the border is not set, or set to none/hidden, the (sub)title is not shown.
      5.  
    5. If the (sub)title alignment is on a side which does not have a border edge, the (sub)title will be flush to that side.
      6.  
    6. Naturally, (sub)title positioning is affected by padding.

    1. Border (sub)titles can contain nested markup.
      2.  
    2. Long (sub)titles get truncated and occupy as much space as possible.
      3.  
    3. (Sub)titles can be stylised with Rich markup.
      4.  
    4. An empty (sub)title isn't displayed.
      5.  
    5. The markup can even contain Rich links.
      6.  
    6. If the widget does not have a border, the title and subtitle are not shown.
      7.  
    7. When the side borders are not set, the (sub)title will align with the edge of the widget.
      8.  
    8. The title and subtitle are aligned on the left and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the rightmost character of the border edge.
      9.  
    9. The title and subtitle are centered and very long, so they get truncated and are centered with one character of padding on each side.
      10.  
    10. The title and subtitle are aligned on the right and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the leftmost character of the border edge.
      11.  
    11. An auxiliary function to create labels with border title and subtitle.
      12.

    1. The default alignment for the title is left and the default alignment for the subtitle is right.
      2.  
    2. Specifying an alignment when the (sub)title is too long has no effect. (Although, it will have an effect if the (sub)title is shortened or if the widget is widened.)
      3.  
    3. Setting the alignment does not affect empty (sub)titles.
      4.  
    4. If the border is not set, or set to none/hidden, the (sub)title is not shown.
      5.  
    5. If the (sub)title alignment is on a side which does not have a border edge, the (sub)title will be flush to that side.
      6.  
    6. Naturally, (sub)title positioning is affected by padding.

    The margin specifies spacing around the four edges of the widget equal to the <integer> specified. The number of values given defines what edges get what margin:
     
       
    • 1 <integer> sets the same margin for the four edges of the widget;
      •  
    • 2 <integer> set margin for top/bottom and left/right edges, respectively.
      •  
    • 4 <integer> set margin for the top, right, bottom, and left edges, respectively.
      •  
     
    Tip
     
    To remember the order of the edges affected by the rule margin when it has 4 values, think of a clock. Its hand starts at the top and the goes clockwise: top, right, bottom, left.

    The opacity style sets the opacity of a widget.

    \nopacity: <number> | <percentage>;\n
     
    The opacity of a widget can be set as a <number> or a <percentage>. If given as a number, then opacity should be a value between 0 and 1, where 0 is the background color and 1 is fully opaque. If given as a percentage, 0% is the background color and 100% is fully opaque.
     
    Typically, if you set this value it would be somewhere between the two extremes. For instance, setting the opacity of a widget to 70% will make it appear dimmer than surrounding widgets, which could be used to display a disabled state.

    The style outline accepts an optional <border> that sets the visual style of the widget outline and an optional <color> to set the color of the outline.
     
    Unlike the style border, the frame of the outline is drawn over the content area of the widget. This rule can be useful to add temporary emphasis on the content of a widget, if you want to draw the user's attention to it.

    \npadding: <integer> # one value for all edges\n       | <integer> <integer>\n       # top/bot   left/right\n       | <integer> <integer> <integer> <integer>;\n       # top       right     bot       left\n\npadding-top: <integer>;\npadding-right: <integer>;\npadding-bottom: <integer>;\npadding-left: <integer>;\n
     
    The padding specifies spacing around the content of a widget, thus this spacing is added inside the widget. The values of the <integer> determine how much spacing is added and the number of values define what edges get what padding:
     
       
    • 1 <integer> sets the same padding for the four edges of the widget;
      •  
    • 2 <integer> set padding for top/bottom and left/right edges, respectively.
      •  
    • 4 <integer> set padding for the top, right, bottom, and left edges, respectively.
      •  
     
    Tip
     
    To remember the order of the edges affected by the rule padding when it has 4 values, think of a clock. Its hand starts at the top and then goes clockwise: top, right, bottom, left.
     
    Alternatively, padding can be set for each edge individually through the rules padding-top, padding-right, padding-bottom, and padding-left, respectively.

    \ntext-opacity: <number> | <percentage>;\n
     
    The text opacity of a widget can be set as a <number> or a <percentage>. If given as a number, then text-opacity should be a value between 0 and 1, where 0 makes the foreground color match the background (effectively making text invisible) and 1 will display text as normal. If given as a percentage, 0% will result in invisible text, and 100% will display fully opaque text.
     
    Typically, if you set this value it would be somewhere between the two extremes. For instance, setting text-opacity to 70% would result in slightly faded text. Setting it to 0.3 would result in very dim text.

    Be careful not to set text opacity so low as to make it hard to read.

    The example below shows a grid with 10 labels laid out in a grid with 5 rows and 2 columns.
     
    We set grid-rows: 1fr 6 25%. Because there are more rows than scalars in the style definition, the scalars will be reused:
     
       
    • rows 1 and 4 have height 1fr;
      •

    The grid-size style sets the number of columns and rows in a grid layout.

    When adding a row to the table, you can supply a key to add_row. A key is a unique identifier for that row. If you don't supply a key, Textual will generate one for you and return it from add_row. This key can later be used to reference the row, regardless of its current position in the table.
     
    When working with data from a database, for example, you may wish to set the row key to the primary key of the data to ensure uniqueness. The method add_column also accepts a key argument and works similarly.
     
    Keys are important because cells in a data table can change location due to factors like row deletion and sorting. Thus, using keys instead of coordinates allows us to refer to data without worrying about its current location in the table.
     
    If you want to change the table based solely on coordinates, you can use the coordinate_to_cell_key method to convert a coordinate to a cell key, which is a (row_key, column_key) pair.
    "},{"location":"widgets/data_table/#cursors","title":"Cursors","text":"
    The coordinate of the cursor is exposed via the cursor_coordinate reactive attribute. Three types of cursors are supported: cell, row, and column. Change the cursor type by assigning to the cursor_type reactive attribute.

    The DataTable can be sorted using the sort method. In order to sort your data by a column, you must have supplied a key to the add_column method when you added it. You can then pass this key to the sort method to sort by that column. Additionally, you can sort by multiple columns by passing multiple keys to sort.

    A \"label\" can be attached to a row using the add_row method. This will add an extra column to the left of the table which the cursor cannot interact with.

    You can supply one or more validators to the Input widget to validate the value.
     
    All the supplied validators will run when the value changes, the Input is submitted, or focus moves out of the Input. The values \"changed\", \"submitted\", and \"blur\", can be passed as an iterable to the Input parameter validate_on to request that validation occur only on the respective mesages. (See InputValidationOn and Input.validate_on.) For example, the code below creates an Input widget that only gets validated when the value is submitted explicitly:
     
    input = Input(validate_on=[\"submitted\"])\n
     
    Validation is considered to have failed if any of the validators fail.
     
    You can check whether the validation succeeded or failed inside an Input.Changed or Input.Submitted handler by looking at the validation_result attribute on these events.
     
    In the example below, we show how to combine multiple validators and update the UI to tell the user why validation failed. Click the tabs to see the output for validation failures and successes.

    1. Number is a built-in Validator. It checks that the value in the Input is a valid number, and optionally can check that it falls within a range.
      2.  
    2. Function lets you quickly define custom validation constraints. In this case, we check the value in the Input is even.
      3.  
    3. Palindrome is a custom Validator defined below.
      4.  
    4. The Input.Changed event has a validation_result attribute which contains information about the validation that occurred when the value changed.
      5.  
    5. Here's how we can implement a custom validator which checks if a string is a palindrome. Note how the description passed into self.failure corresponds to the message seen on UI.
      6.  
    6. Textual offers default styling for the -invalid CSS class (a red border), which is automatically applied to Input when validation fails. We can also provide custom styling for the -valid class, as seen here. In this case, we add a green border around the Input to indicate successful validation.

    A Select widget is a compact control to allow the user to select between a number of possible options.
     
       
    •  Focusable
      •  
    •  Container
      •  
     
    The options in a select control may be passed in to the constructor or set later with set_options. Options should be given as a sequence of tuples consisting of two values: the first is the string (or Rich Renderable) to display in the control and list of options, the second is the value of option.
     
    The value of the currently selected option is stored in the value attribute of the widget, and the value attribute of the Changed message.
    "},{"location":"widgets/select/#typing","title":"Typing","text":"
    The Select control is a typing Generic which allows you to set the type of the option values. For instance, if the data type for your values is an integer, you would type the widget as follows:
     
    options = [(\"First\", 1), (\"Second\", 2)]\nmy_select: Select[int] =  Select(options)\n
     
    Note
     
    Typing is entirely optional.

    The example below illustrates the relationship between the data, its length, the width of the sparkline, and the number of bars displayed.
     
    Tip
     
    The sparkline data is split into equally-sized chunks. Each chunk is represented by a bar and the width of the sparkline dictates how many bars there are.

    1. We have 12 data points.
      2.  
    2. This sparkline will have its width set to 3 via CSS.
      3.  
    3. The data (12 numbers) will be split across 3 bars, so 4 data points are associated with each bar.
      4.  
    4. Each bar will represent its largest value. The largest value of each chunk is 2, 4, and 8, respectively. That explains why the first bar is half the height of the second and the second bar is half the height of the third.
      5.  
     
    Screen {\nalign: center middle;\n}\nSparkline {\nwidth: 3;  /* (1)! */\nmargin: 2;\n}\n

    Construct a Tabs widget with strings or Text objects as positional arguments, which will set the labels in the tabs. Here's an example with three tabs:
     
    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Tabs(\"First tab\", \"Second tab\", Text.from_markup(\"[u]Third[/u] tab\"))\n
     
    This will create Tab widgets internally, with auto-incrementing id attributes (\"tab-1\", \"tab-2\" etc). You can also supply Tab objects directly in the constructor, which will allow you to explicitly set an id. Here's an example:
     
    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Tabs(\nTab(\"First tab\", id=\"one\"),\nTab(\"Second tab\", id=\"two\"),\n)\n
     
    When the user switches to a tab by clicking or pressing keys, then Tabs will send a Tabs.TabActivated message which contains the tab that was activated. You can then use event.tab.id attribute to perform any related actions.

    You can customize the style of Toasts by targeting the Toast CSS type. For example:
     
    Toast {\npadding: 3;\n}\n
     
    The three severity levels also have corresponding classes, allowing you to target the different styles of notification. They are:
     
       
    • -information
      •  
    • -warning
      •  
    • -error
      •  
     
    If you wish to tailor the notifications for your application you can add rules to your CSS like this:
     
    Toast.-information {\n/* Styling here. */\n}\nToast.-warning {\n/* Styling here. */\n}\nToast.-error {\n/* Styling here. */\n}\n
     
    You can customize just the title wih the toast--title class. The following would make the title italic for an information toast:

    Running a Textual app puts your terminal in to application mode which disables clicking and dragging to select text. Most terminal emulators offer a modifier key which you can hold while you click and drag to restore the behavior you may expect from the command line. The exact modifier key depends on the terminal and platform you are running on.
     
       
    • iTerm Hold the OPTION key.
      •  
    • Gnome Terminal Hold the SHIFT key.
      •  
    • Windows Terminal Hold the SHIFT key.

    Some terminal emulators have a translucent background feature which allows the desktop underneath to be partially visible.
     
    This feature is unlikely to work with Textual, as the translucency effect requires the use of ANSI background colors, which Textual doesn't use. Textual uses 16.7 million colors where available which enables consistent colors across all platforms and additional effects which aren't possible with ANSI colors.

    Tip
     
    See How To Center Things in the Textual documentation for a more comprensive answer to this question.
     
    To center a widget within a container use align. But remember that align works on the children of a container, it isn't something you use on the child you want centered.
     
    For example, here's an app that shows a Button in the middle of a Screen:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass ButtonApp(App):\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Button(\"PUSH ME!\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nButtonApp().run()\n
     
    If you use the above on multiple widgets, you'll find they appear to \"left-align\" in the center of the screen, like this:
     
    +-----+\n|     |\n+-----+\n\n+---------+\n|         |\n+---------+\n\n+---------------+\n|               |\n+---------------+\n
     
    If you want them more like this:
     
         +-----+\n     |     |\n     +-----+\n\n   +---------+\n   |         |\n   +---------+\n\n+---------------+\n|               |\n+---------------+\n
     
    the best approach is to wrap each widget in a Center container that individually centers it. For example:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Center\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass ButtonApp(App):\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Center(Button(\"PUSH ME!\"))\nyield Center(Button(\"AND ME!\"))\nyield Center(Button(\"ALSO PLEASE PUSH ME!\"))\nyield Center(Button(\"HEY ME ALSO!!\"))\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nButtonApp().run()\n
     
    "},{"location":"FAQ/#how-do-i-fix-workerdeclarationerror","title":"How do I fix WorkerDeclarationError?","text":"
    Textual version 0.31.0 requires that you set thread=True on the @work decorator if you want to run a threaded worker.
     
    If you want a threaded worker, you would declare it in the following way:
     
    @work(thread=True)\ndef run_in_background():\n...\n
     
    If you don't want a threaded worker, you should make your work function async:
     
    @work()\nasync def run_in_background():\n...\n
     
    This change was made because it was too easy to accidentally create a threaded worker, which may produce unexpected results.
     
    "},{"location":"FAQ/#how-do-i-pass-arguments-to-an-app","title":"How do I pass arguments to an app?","text":"
    When creating your App class, override __init__ as you would when inheriting normally. For example:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass Greetings(App[None]):\ndef __init__(self, greeting: str=\"Hello\", to_greet: str=\"World\") -> None:\nself.greeting = greeting\nself.to_greet = to_greet\nsuper().__init__()\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(f\"{self.greeting}, {self.to_greet}\")\n
     
    Then the app can be run, passing in various arguments; for example:
     
    # Running with default arguments.\nGreetings().run()\n# Running with a keyword argument.\nGreetings(to_greet=\"davep\").run()\n# Running with both positional arguments.\nGreetings(\"Well hello\", \"there\").run()\n

    Textual can only ever support key combinations that are passed on by your terminal application. Which keys get passed on can differ from terminal to terminal, and from operating system to operating system.
     
    Because of this it's best to stick to key combinations that are known to be universally-supported; these include the likes of:
     
       
    • Letters
      •  
    • Numbers
      •  
    • Numbered function keys (especially F1 through F10)
      •  
    • Space
      •  
    • Return
      •  
    • Arrow, home, end and page keys
      •  
    • Control
      •  
    • Shift
      •  
     
    When creating bindings for your application we recommend picking keys and key combinations from the above.
     
    Keys that aren't normally passed through by terminals include Cmd and Option on macOS, and the Windows key on Windows.
     
    If you need to test what key combinations work in different environments you can try them out with textual keys.

    You may find that the default macOS Terminal.app doesn't render Textual apps (and likely other TUIs) very well, particuarily when it comes to box characters. For instance, you may find it displays misaligned blocks and lines like this:
     
     
    You can (mostly) fix this by opening settings -> profiles > Text tab, and changing the font settings. We have found that Menlo Regular font, with a character spacing of 1 and line spacing of 0.805 produces reasonable results. If you want to use another font, you may have to tweak the line spacing until you get good results.
     
     
    With these changes, Textual apps render more as intended:
     
     
    Even with this fix, Terminal.app has a few limitations. It is limited to 256 colors, and can be a little slow compared to more modern alternatives. Fortunately there are a number of free terminal emulators for macOS which produces high quality results.

There is very little an app author or Textual can do to resolve this. Asking users to simply pick a better theme is not a good solution, since not all users will know how.
      •  
    • ANSI colors can't be manipulated in the way Textual can do with other colors. Textual can blend colors and produce light and dark shades from an original color, which is used to create more readable text and user interfaces. Color blending will also be used to power future accessibility features.
      •  
     
    Textual has a design system which guarantees apps will be readable on all platforms and terminals, and produces better results than ANSI colors.
     
    There is currently a light and dark version of the design system, but more are planned. It will also be possible for users to customize the source colors on a per-app or per-system basis. This means that in the future you will be able to modify the core colors to blend in with your chosen terminal theme.
     
    "},{"location":"FAQ/#why-doesnt-the-datatable-scroll-programmatically","title":"Why doesn't the DataTable scroll programmatically?","text":"
    If scrolling in your DataTable is apparently broken, it may be because your DataTable is using the default value of height: auto. This means that the table will be sized to fit its rows without scrolling, which may cause the container (typically the screen) to scroll. If you would like the table itself to scroll, set the height to something other than auto, like 100%.
     
    NOTE: As of Textual v0.31.0 the max-height of a DataTable is set to 100%, this will mean that the above is no longer the default experience.

    We're going to build a stopwatch application. This application should show a list of stopwatches with buttons to start, stop, and reset the stopwatches. We also want the user to be able to add and remove stopwatches as required.
     
    This will be a simple yet fully featured app \u2014 you could distribute this app if you wanted to!
     
    Here's what the finished app will look like:

    If you want to try the finished Stopwatch app and follow along with the code, first make sure you have Textual installed then check out the Textual repository:
     HTTPSSSHGitHub CLI 
    git clone https://github.com/Textualize/textual.git\n
     
    git clone git@github.com:Textualize/textual.git\n
     
    gh repo clone Textualize/textual\n
     
    With the repository cloned, navigate to docs/examples/tutorial and run stopwatch.py.
     
    cd textual/docs/examples/tutorial\npython stopwatch.py\n

    Tip
     
    Type hints are entirely optional in Textual. We've included them in the example code but it's up to you whether you add them to your own projects.
     
    We're a big fan of Python type hints at Textualize. If you haven't encountered type hinting, it's a way to express the types of your data, parameters, and return values. Type hinting allows tools like mypy to catch bugs before your code runs.
     
    The following function contains type hints:
     
    def repeat(text: str, count: int) -> str:\n\"\"\"Repeat a string a given number of times.\"\"\"\nreturn text * count\n
     
    Parameter types follow a colon. So text: str indicates that text requires a string and count: int means that count requires an integer.
     
    Return types follow ->. So -> str: indicates this method returns a string.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#the-app-class","title":"The App class","text":"
    The first step in building a Textual app is to import and extend the App class. Here's a basic app class we will use as a starting point for the stopwatch app.
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    If you run this code, you should see something like the following:
     
     stopwatch01.py \u2b58StopwatchApp \u00a0D\u00a0\u00a0Toggle\u00a0dark\u00a0mode\u00a0 
     
    Hit the D key to toggle between light and dark mode.
     
     stopwatch01.py \u2b58StopwatchApp \u00a0D\u00a0\u00a0Toggle\u00a0dark\u00a0mode\u00a0 
     
    Hit Ctrl+C to exit the app and return to the command prompt.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#a-closer-look-at-the-app-class","title":"A closer look at the App class","text":"
    Let's examine stopwatch01.py in more detail.
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The first line imports the Textual App class, which we will use as the base class for our App. The second line imports two builtin widgets: Footer which shows a bar at the bottom of the screen with bound keys, and Header which shows a title at the top of the screen. Widgets are re-usable components responsible for managing a part of the screen. We will cover how to build widgets in this tutorial.
     
    The following lines define the app itself:
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The App class is where most of the logic of Textual apps is written. It is responsible for loading configuration, setting up widgets, handling keys, and more.
     
    Here's what the above app defines:
     
       
    •  
      BINDINGS is a list of tuples that maps (or binds) keys to actions in your app. The first value in the tuple is the key; the second value is the name of the action; the final value is a short description. We have a single binding which maps the D key on to the \"toggle_dark\" action. See key bindings in the guide for details.
       
      •  
    •  
      compose() is where we construct a user interface with widgets. The compose() method may return a list of widgets, but it is generally easier to yield them (making this method a generator). In the example code we yield an instance of each of the widget classes we imported, i.e. Header() and Footer().
       
      •  
    •  
      action_toggle_dark() defines an action method. Actions are methods beginning with action_ followed by the name of the action. The BINDINGS list above tells Textual to run this action when the user hits the D key. See actions in the guide for details.
       
      •  
     stopwatch01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The final three lines create an instance of the app and calls the run() method which puts your terminal in to application mode and runs the app until you exit with Ctrl+C. This happens within a __name__ == \"__main__\" block so we could run the app with python stopwatch01.py or import it as part of a larger project.

    Textual comes with a number of builtin widgets, like Header and Footer, which are versatile and re-usable. We will need to build some custom widgets for the stopwatch. Before we dive in to that, let's first sketch a design for the app \u2014 so we know what we're aiming for.

      •  
     
    Textual has a builtin Button widget which takes care of the first three components. All we need to build is the time display widget which will show the elapsed time and the stopwatch widget itself.
     
    Let's add those to the app. Just a skeleton for now, we will add the rest of the features as we go.
     stopwatch02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import ScrollableContainer\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nclass Stopwatch(Static):\n\"\"\"A stopwatch widget.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets of a stopwatch.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Start\", id=\"start\", variant=\"success\")\nyield Button(\"Stop\", id=\"stop\", variant=\"error\")\nyield Button(\"Reset\", id=\"reset\")\nyield TimeDisplay(\"00:00:00.00\")\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield ScrollableContainer(Stopwatch(), Stopwatch(), Stopwatch())\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    We've imported two new widgets in this code: Button, which creates a clickable button, and Static which is a base class for a simple control. We've also imported ScrollableContainer from textual.containers which (as the name suggests) is a Widget which contains other widgets.
     
    We've defined an empty TimeDisplay widget by extending Static. We will flesh this out later.
     
    The Stopwatch widget class also extends Static. This class has a compose() method which yields child widgets, consisting of three Button objects and a single TimeDisplay object. These widgets will form the stopwatch in our sketch.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#the-buttons","title":"The buttons","text":"
    The Button constructor takes a label to be displayed in the button (\"Start\", \"Stop\", or \"Reset\"). Additionally, some of the buttons set the following parameters:
     
       
    • id is an identifier we can use to tell the buttons apart in code and apply styles. More on that later.
      •  
    • variant is a string which selects a default style. The \"success\" variant makes the button green, and the \"error\" variant makes it red.
      •  
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#composing-the-widgets","title":"Composing the widgets","text":"
    To add widgets to our application we first need to yield them from the app's compose() method:
     
    The new line in StopwatchApp.compose() yields a single ScrollableContainer object which will create a scrolling list of stopwatches. When classes contain other widgets (like ScrollableContainer) they will typically accept their child widgets as positional arguments. We want to start the app with three stopwatches, so we construct three Stopwatch instances and pass them to the container's constructor.

    The elements of the stopwatch application are there. The buttons are clickable and you can scroll the container but it doesn't look like the sketch. This is because we have yet to apply any styles to our new widgets.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#writing-textual-css","title":"Writing Textual CSS","text":"
    Every widget has a styles object with a number of attributes that impact how the widget will appear. Here's how you might set white text and a blue background for a widget:
     
    self.styles.background = \"blue\"\nself.styles.color = \"white\"\n
     
    While it's possible to set all styles for an app this way, it is rarely necessary. Textual has support for CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), a technology used by web browsers. CSS files are data files loaded by your app which contain information about styles to apply to your widgets.
     
    Info
     
    The dialect of CSS used in Textual is greatly simplified over web based CSS and much easier to learn.
     
    CSS makes it easy to iterate on the design of your app and enables live-editing \u2014 you can edit CSS and see the changes without restarting the app!
     
    Let's add a CSS file to our application.
     stopwatch03.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import ScrollableContainer\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nclass Stopwatch(Static):\n\"\"\"A stopwatch widget.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets of a stopwatch.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Start\", id=\"start\", variant=\"success\")\nyield Button(\"Stop\", id=\"stop\", variant=\"error\")\nyield Button(\"Reset\", id=\"reset\")\nyield TimeDisplay(\"00:00:00.00\")\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"stopwatch03.tcss\"\nBINDINGS = [(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\")]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets for the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield ScrollableContainer(Stopwatch(), Stopwatch(), Stopwatch())\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Adding the CSS_PATH class variable tells Textual to load the following file when the app starts:
     stopwatch03.tcss
    Stopwatch {\nlayout: horizontal;\nbackground: $boost;\nheight: 5;\nmargin: 1;\nmin-width: 50;\npadding: 1;\n}\nTimeDisplay {\ncontent-align: center middle;\ntext-opacity: 60%;\nheight: 3;\n}\nButton {\nwidth: 16;\n}\n#start {\ndock: left;\n}\n#stop {\ndock: left;\ndisplay: none;\n}\n#reset {\ndock: right;\n}\n
     
    If we run the app now, it will look very different.

    This app looks much more like our sketch. Let's look at how Textual uses stopwatch03.tcss to apply styles.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#css-basics","title":"CSS basics","text":"
    CSS files contain a number of declaration blocks. Here's the first such block from stopwatch03.tcss again:
     
    Stopwatch {\nlayout: horizontal;\nbackground: $boost;\nheight: 5;\nmargin: 1;\nmin-width: 50;\npadding: 1;\n}\n
     
    The first line tells Textual that the styles should apply to the Stopwatch widget. The lines between the curly brackets contain the styles themselves.
     
    Here's how this CSS code changes how the Stopwatch widget is displayed.

    • layout: horizontal aligns child widgets horizontally from left to right.
      •  
    • background: $boost sets the background color to $boost. The $ prefix picks a pre-defined color from the builtin theme. There are other ways to specify colors such as \"blue\" or rgb(20,46,210).
      •  
    • height: 5 sets the height of our widget to 5 lines of text.
      •  
    • margin: 1 sets a margin of 1 cell around the Stopwatch widget to create a little space between widgets in the list.
      •  
    • min-width: 50 sets the minimum width of our widget to 50 cells.
      •  
    • padding: 1 sets a padding of 1 cell around the child widgets.
      •  
     
    Here's the rest of stopwatch03.tcss which contains further declaration blocks:
     
    TimeDisplay {\ncontent-align: center middle;\nopacity: 60%;\nheight: 3;\n}\nButton {\nwidth: 16;\n}\n#start {\ndock: left;\n}\n#stop {\ndock: left;\ndisplay: none;\n}\n#reset {\ndock: right;\n}\n
     
    The TimeDisplay block aligns text to the center (content-align), fades it slightly (opacity), and sets its height (height) to 3 lines.
     
    The Button block sets the width (width) of buttons to 16 cells (character widths).
     
    The last 3 blocks have a slightly different format. When the declaration begins with a # then the styles will be applied to widgets with a matching \"id\" attribute. We've set an ID on the Button widgets we yielded in compose. For instance the first button has id=\"start\" which matches #start in the CSS.
     
    The buttons have a dock style which aligns the widget to a given edge. The start and stop buttons are docked to the left edge, while the reset button is docked to the right edge.
     
    You may have noticed that the stop button (#stop in the CSS) has display: none;. This tells Textual to not show the button. We do this because we don't want to display the stop button when the timer is not running. Similarly, we don't want to show the start button when the timer is running. We will cover how to manage such dynamic user interfaces in the next section.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#dynamic-css","title":"Dynamic CSS","text":"
    We want our Stopwatch widget to have two states: a default state with a Start and Reset button; and a started state with a Stop button. When a stopwatch is started it should also have a green background and bold text.

    We can accomplish this with a CSS class. Not to be confused with a Python class, a CSS class is like a tag you can add to a widget to modify its styles.
     
    Here's the new CSS:
     stopwatch04.tcss
    Stopwatch {\nlayout: horizontal;\nbackground: $boost;\nheight: 5;\nmargin: 1;\nmin-width: 50;\npadding: 1;\n}\nTimeDisplay {\ncontent-align: center middle;\ntext-opacity: 60%;\nheight: 3;\n}\nButton {\nwidth: 16;\n}\n#start {\ndock: left;\n}\n#stop {\ndock: left;\ndisplay: none;\n}\n#reset {\ndock: right;\n}\n.started {\ntext-style: bold;\nbackground: $success;\ncolor: $text;\n}\n.started TimeDisplay {\ntext-opacity: 100%;\n}\n.started #start {\ndisplay: none\n}\n.started #stop {\ndisplay: block\n}\n.started #reset {\nvisibility: hidden\n}\n
     
    These new rules are prefixed with .started. The . indicates that .started refers to a CSS class called \"started\". The new styles will be applied only to widgets that have this CSS class.
     
    Some of the new styles have more than one selector separated by a space. The space indicates that the rule should match the second selector if it is a child of the first. Let's look at one of these styles:
     
    .started #start {\ndisplay: none\n}\n
     
    The .started selector matches any widget with a \"started\" CSS class. While #start matches a child widget with an ID of \"start\". So it matches the Start button only for Stopwatches in a started state.
     
    The rule is \"display: none\" which tells Textual to hide the button.
    "},{"location":"tutorial/#manipulating-classes","title":"Manipulating classes","text":"
    Modifying a widget's CSS classes is a convenient way to update visuals without introducing a lot of messy display related code.
     
    You can add and remove CSS classes with the add_class() and remove_class() methods. We will use these methods to connect the started state to the Start / Stop buttons.

    The on_button_pressed method is an event handler. Event handlers are methods called by Textual in response to an event such as a key press, mouse click, etc. Event handlers begin with on_ followed by the name of the event they will handle. Hence on_button_pressed will handle the button pressed event.
     
    If you run stopwatch04.py now you will be able to toggle between the two states by clicking the first button:

    A recurring theme in Textual is that you rarely need to explicitly update a widget. It is possible: you can call refresh() to display new data. However, Textual prefers to do this automatically via reactive attributes.
     
    You can declare a reactive attribute with reactive. Let's use this feature to create a timer that displays elapsed time and keeps it updated.

    We have added two reactive attributes to the TimeDisplay widget: start_time will contain the time (in seconds) the stopwatch was started, and time will contain the time to be displayed on the Stopwatch.
     
    Both attributes will be available on self as if you had assigned them in __init__. If you write to either of these attributes the widget will update automatically.
     
    Info
     
    The monotonic function in this example is imported from the standard library time module. It is similar to time.time but won't go backwards if the system clock is changed.
     
    The first argument to reactive may be a default value for the attribute or a callable that returns a default value. We set the default for start_time to the monotonic function which will be called to initialize the attribute with the current time when the TimeDisplay is added to the app. The time attribute has a simple float as the default, so self.time will be initialized to 0.
     
    The on_mount method is an event handler called when the widget is first added to the application (or mounted in Textual terminology). In this method we call set_interval() to create a timer which calls self.update_time sixty times a second. This update_time method calculates the time elapsed since the widget started and assigns it to self.time \u2014 which brings us to one of Reactive's super-powers.
     
    If you implement a method that begins with watch_ followed by the name of a reactive attribute, then the method will be called when the attribute is modified. Such methods are known as watch methods.
     
    Because watch_time watches the time attribute, when we update self.time 60 times a second we also implicitly call watch_time which converts the elapsed time to a string and updates the widget with a call to self.update. Because this happens automatically, we don't need to pass in an initial argument to TimeDisplay.
     
    The end result is that the Stopwatch widgets show the time elapsed since the widget was created:

    Here's a summary of the changes made to TimeDisplay.
     
       
    • We've added a total reactive attribute to store the total time elapsed between clicking the start and stop buttons.
      •  
    • The call to set_interval has grown a pause=True argument which starts the timer in pause mode (when a timer is paused it won't run until resume() is called). This is because we don't want the time to update until the user hits the start button.
      •  
    • The update_time method now adds total to the current time to account for the time between any previous clicks of the start and stop buttons.
      •  
    • We've stored the result of set_interval which returns a Timer object. We will use this later to resume the timer when we start the Stopwatch.
      •  
    • We've added start(), stop(), and reset() methods.
      •  
     
    In addition, the on_button_pressed method on Stopwatch has grown some code to manage the time display when the user clicks a button. Let's look at that in detail:
     
        def on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when a button is pressed.\"\"\"\nbutton_id = event.button.id\ntime_display = self.query_one(TimeDisplay)\nif button_id == \"start\":\ntime_display.start()\nself.add_class(\"started\")\nelif button_id == \"stop\":\ntime_display.stop()\nself.remove_class(\"started\")\nelif button_id == \"reset\":\ntime_display.reset()\n
     
    This code supplies missing features and makes our app useful. We've made the following changes.
     
       
    • The first line retrieves id attribute of the button that was pressed. We can use this to decide what to do in response.
      •  
    • The second line calls query_one to get a reference to the TimeDisplay widget.
      •  
    • We call the method on TimeDisplay that matches the pressed button.
      •  
    • We add the \"started\" class when the Stopwatch is started (self.add_class(\"started\")), and remove it (self.remove_class(\"started\")) when it is stopped. This will update the Stopwatch visuals via CSS.
      •  
     
    If you run stopwatch06.py you will be able to use the stopwatches independently.

    from time import monotonic\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import ScrollableContainer\nfrom textual.reactive import reactive\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nstart_time = reactive(monotonic)\ntime = reactive(0.0)\ntotal = reactive(0.0)\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when widget is added to the app.\"\"\"\nself.update_timer = self.set_interval(1 / 60, self.update_time, pause=True)\ndef update_time(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Method to update time to current.\"\"\"\nself.time = self.total + (monotonic() - self.start_time)\ndef watch_time(self, time: float) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the time attribute changes.\"\"\"\nminutes, seconds = divmod(time, 60)\nhours, minutes = divmod(minutes, 60)\nself.update(f\"{hours:02,.0f}:{minutes:02.0f}:{seconds:05.2f}\")\ndef start(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Method to start (or resume) time updating.\"\"\"\nself.start_time = monotonic()\nself.update_timer.resume()\ndef stop(self):\n\"\"\"Method to stop the time display updating.\"\"\"\nself.update_timer.pause()\nself.total += monotonic() - self.start_time\nself.time = self.total\ndef reset(self):\n\"\"\"Method to reset the time display to zero.\"\"\"\nself.total = 0\nself.time = 0\nclass Stopwatch(Static):\n\"\"\"A stopwatch widget.\"\"\"\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when a button is pressed.\"\"\"\nbutton_id = event.button.id\ntime_display = self.query_one(TimeDisplay)\nif button_id == \"start\":\ntime_display.start()\nself.add_class(\"started\")\nelif button_id == \"stop\":\ntime_display.stop()\nself.remove_class(\"started\")\nelif button_id == \"reset\":\ntime_display.reset()\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Create child widgets of a stopwatch.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Start\", id=\"start\", variant=\"success\")\nyield Button(\"Stop\", id=\"stop\", variant=\"error\")\nyield Button(\"Reset\", id=\"reset\")\nyield TimeDisplay()\nclass StopwatchApp(App):\n\"\"\"A Textual app to manage stopwatches.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"stopwatch.tcss\"\nBINDINGS = [\n(\"d\", \"toggle_dark\", \"Toggle dark mode\"),\n(\"a\", \"add_stopwatch\", \"Add\"),\n(\"r\", \"remove_stopwatch\", \"Remove\"),\n]\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Called to add widgets to the app.\"\"\"\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield ScrollableContainer(Stopwatch(), Stopwatch(), Stopwatch(), id=\"timers\")\ndef action_add_stopwatch(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to add a timer.\"\"\"\nnew_stopwatch = Stopwatch()\nself.query_one(\"#timers\").mount(new_stopwatch)\nnew_stopwatch.scroll_visible()\ndef action_remove_stopwatch(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called to remove a timer.\"\"\"\ntimers = self.query(\"Stopwatch\")\nif timers:\ntimers.last().remove()\ndef action_toggle_dark(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"An action to toggle dark mode.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = StopwatchApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here's a summary of the changes:
     
       
    • The ScrollableContainer object in StopWatchApp grew a \"timers\" ID.
      •  
    • Added action_add_stopwatch to add a new stopwatch.
      •  
    • Added action_remove_stopwatch to remove a stopwatch.
      •  
    • Added keybindings for the actions.
      •  
     
    The action_add_stopwatch method creates and mounts a new stopwatch. Note the call to query_one() with a CSS selector of \"#timers\" which gets the timer's container via its ID. Once mounted, the new Stopwatch will appear in the terminal. That last line in action_add_stopwatch calls scroll_visible() which will scroll the container to make the new Stopwatch visible (if required).
     
    The action_remove_stopwatch function calls query() with a CSS selector of \"Stopwatch\" which gets all the Stopwatch widgets. If there are stopwatches then the action calls last() to get the last stopwatch, and remove() to remove it.
     
    If you run stopwatch.py now you can add a new stopwatch with the A key and remove a stopwatch with R.

    To implement your own Validator, subclass this class.

    A (reasonable) criticism of async is that it tends to proliferate in your code. In order to await something, your functions must be async all the way up the call-stack. This tends to result in you making things async just to support that one call that needs it or, worse, adding async just-in-case. Given that going from def to async def is a breaking change there is a strong incentive to go straight there.
     
    Before you know it, you have adopted a policy of \"async all the things\".
     
    Textual is an async framework, but doesn't require the app developer to use the async and await keywords (but you can if you need to). This post is about how Textual accomplishes this async-agnosticism.

    But first, an apology! In a previous post I said Textual \"doesn't do any IO of its own\". This is not accurate. Textual responds to keys and mouse events (Input) and writes content to the terminal (Output).
     
    Although Textual clearly does do IO, it uses asyncio mainly for concurrency. It allows each widget to update its part of the screen independently from the rest of the app.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/03/15/no-async-async-with-python/#await-me-maybe","title":"Await me (maybe)","text":"
    The first no-async async technique is the \"Await me maybe\" pattern, a term first coined by Simon Willison. This is particularly applicable to callbacks (or in Textual terms, message handlers).
     
    The await_me_maybe function below can run a callback that is either a plain old function or a coroutine (async def). It does this by awaiting the result of the callback if it is awaitable, or simply returning the result if it is not.
     
    import asyncio\nimport inspect\ndef plain_old_function():\nreturn \"Plain old function\"\nasync def async_function():\nreturn \"Async function\"\nasync def await_me_maybe(callback):\nresult = callback()\nif inspect.isawaitable(result):\nreturn await result\nreturn result\nasync def run_framework():\nprint(\nawait await_me_maybe(plain_old_function)\n)\nprint(\nawait await_me_maybe(async_function)\n)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nasyncio.run(run_framework())\n
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/03/15/no-async-async-with-python/#optionally-awaitable","title":"Optionally awaitable","text":"
    The \"await me maybe\" pattern is great when an async framework calls the app's code. The app developer can choose to write async code or not. Things get a little more complicated when the app wants to call the framework's API. If the API has asynced all the things, then it would force the app to do the same.
     
    Textual's API consists of regular methods for the most part, but there are a few methods which are optionally awaitable. These are not coroutines (which must be awaited to do anything).
     
    In practice, this means that those API calls initiate something which will complete a short time later. If you discard the return value then it won't prevent it from working. You only need to await if you want to know when it has finished.
     
    The mount method is one such method. Calling it will add a widget to the screen:
     
    def on_key(self):\n# Add MyWidget to the screen\nself.mount(MyWidget(\"Hello, World!\"))\n
     
    In this example we don't care that the widget hasn't been mounted immediately, only that it will be soon.
     
    Note
     
    Textual awaits the result of mount after the message handler, so even if you don't explicitly await it, it will have been completed by the time the next message handler runs.
     
    We might care if we want to mount a widget then make some changes to it. By making the handler async and awaiting the result of mount, we can be sure that the widget has been initialized before we update it:
     
    async def on_key(self):\n# Add MyWidget to the screen\nawait self.mount(MyWidget(\"Hello, World!\"))\n# add a border\nself.query_one(MyWidget).styles.border = (\"heavy\", \"red\")\n
     
    Incidentally, I found there were very few examples of writing awaitable objects in Python. So here is the code for AwaitMount which is returned by the mount method:
     
    class AwaitMount:\n\"\"\"An awaitable returned by mount() and mount_all().\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, parent: Widget, widgets: Sequence[Widget]) -> None:\nself._parent = parent\nself._widgets = widgets\nasync def __call__(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Allows awaiting via a call operation.\"\"\"\nawait self\ndef __await__(self) -> Generator[None, None, None]:\nasync def await_mount() -> None:\nif self._widgets:\naws = [\ncreate_task(widget._mounted_event.wait(), name=\"await mount\")\nfor widget in self._widgets\n]\nif aws:\nawait wait(aws)\nself._parent.refresh(layout=True)\nreturn await_mount().__await__()\n

    Textual did initially \"async all the things\", which you might see if you find some old Textual code. Now async is optional.
     
    This is not because I dislike async. I'm a fan! But it does place a small burden on the developer (more to type and think about). With the current API you generally don't need to write coroutines, or remember to await things. But async is there if you need it.
     
    We're finding that Textual is increasingly becoming a UI to things which are naturally concurrent, so async was a good move. Concurrency can be a tricky subject, so we're planning some API magic to take the pain out of running tasks, threads, and processes. Stay tuned!

    Ahh, yes, about that... So one of the handy things I'm finding about Textual is its key binding system. The more I build Textual apps, the more I appreciate the bindings, how they can be associated with specific widgets, the use of actions (which can be used from other places too), etc.
     
    But... (there's always a \"but\" right -- I mean, there'd be no blog post to be had here otherwise).
     
    The terminal doesn't have access to all the key combinations you may want to use, and also, because some keys can't necessarily be \"typed\", at least not easily (think about it: there's no F1 character, you have to type F1), many keys and key combinations need to be bound with specific names.
     
    So there's two problems here: how do I discover what keys even turn up in my application, and when they do, what should I call them when I pass them to Binding?
     
    That felt like a \"well Dave just build an app for it!\" problem. So I did:
     
    If you're building apps with Textual and you want to discover what keys turn up from your terminal and are available to your application, you can:
     
    $ pipx install textual-keys\n
     
    and then just run textual-keys and start mashing the keyboard to find out.
     
    There's a good chance that this app, or at least a version of it, will make it into Textual itself (very likely as one of the devtools). But for now it's just an easy install away.
     
    I think there's a call to be made here too: have you built anything to help speed up how you work with Textual, or just make the development experience \"just so\"? If so, do let us know, and come yell about it on the #show-and-tell channel in our Discord server.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/12/30/a-better-asyncio-sleep-for-windows-to-fix-animation/","title":"A better asyncio sleep for Windows to fix animation","text":"
    I spent some time optimizing Textual on Windows recently, and discovered something which may be of interest to anyone working with async code on that platform.
     
    Animation, scrolling, and fading had always been unsatisfactory on Windows. Textual was usable, but the lag when scrolling made apps feel far less snappy that other platforms. On macOS and Linux, scrolling is fast enough that it feels close to a native app, not something running in a terminal. Yet the Windows experience never improved, even as Textual got faster with each release.
     
    I had chalked this up to Windows Terminal being slow to render updates. After all, the classic Windows terminal was (and still is) glacially slow. Perhaps Microsoft just weren't focusing on performance.
     
    In retrospect, that was highly improbable. Like all modern terminals, Windows Terminal uses the GPU to render updates. Even without focussing on performance, it should be fast.
     
    I figured I'd give it one last attempt to speed up Textual on Windows. If I failed, Windows would forever be a third-class platform for Textual apps.
     
    It turned out that it was nothing to do with performance, per se. The issue was with a single asyncio function: asyncio.sleep.
     
    Textual has a Timer class which creates events at regular intervals. It powers the JS-like set_interval and set_timer functions. It is also used internally to do animation (such as smooth scrolling). This Timer class calls asyncio.sleep to wait the time between one event and the next.
     
    On macOS and Linux, calling asynco.sleep is fairly accurate. If you call sleep(3.14), it will return within 1% of 3.14 seconds. This is not the case for Windows, which for historical reasons uses a timer with a granularity of 15 milliseconds. The upshot is that sleep times will be rounded up to the nearest multiple of 15 milliseconds.
     
    This limit appears to hold true for all async primitives on Windows. If you wait for something with a timeout, it will return on a multiple of 15 milliseconds. Fortunately there is work in the CPython pipeline to make this more accurate. Thanks to Steve Dower for pointing this out.
     
    This lack of accuracy in the timer meant that timer events were created at a far slower rate than intended. Animation was slower because Textual was waiting too long between updates.
     
    Once I had figured that out, I needed an alternative to asyncio.sleep for Textual's Timer class. And I found one. The following version of sleep is accurate to well within 1%:
     
    from time import sleep as time_sleep\nfrom asyncio import get_running_loop\nasync def sleep(sleep_for: float) -> None:\n\"\"\"An asyncio sleep.\n    On Windows this achieves a better granularity than asyncio.sleep\n    Args:\n        sleep_for (float): Seconds to sleep for.\n    \"\"\"    \nawait get_running_loop().run_in_executor(None, time_sleep, sleep_for)\n
     
    That is a drop-in replacement for sleep on Windows. With it, Textual runs a lot smoother. Easily on par with macOS and Linux.
     
    It's not quite perfect. There is a little tearing during full \"screen\" updates, but performance is decent all round. I suspect when this bug is fixed (big thanks to Paul Moore for looking in to that), and Microsoft implements this protocol then Textual on Windows will be A+.
     
    This Windows improvement will be in v0.9.0 of Textual, which will be released in a few days.

    I'm taking a brief break from blogging about Textual to bring you this brief PSA for Python developers who work with async code. I wanted to expand a little on this tweet.
     
    If you have ever used asyncio.create_task you may have created a bug for yourself that is challenging (read almost impossible) to reproduce. If it occurs, your code will likely fail in unpredictable ways.
     
    The root cause of this Heisenbug is that if you don't hold a reference to the task object returned by create_task then the task may disappear without warning when Python runs garbage collection. In other words, the code in your task will stop running with no obvious indication why.
     
    This behavior is well documented, as you can see from this excerpt (emphasis mine):
     
     
    But who reads all the docs? And who has perfect recall if they do? A search on GitHub indicates that there are a lot of projects where this bug is waiting for just the right moment to ruin somebody's day.
     
    I suspect the reason this mistake is so common is that tasks are a lot like threads (conceptually at least). With threads you can just launch them and forget. Unless you mark them as \"daemon\" threads they will exist for the lifetime of your app. Not so with Tasks.
     
    The solution recommended in the docs is to keep a reference to the task for as long as you need it to live. On modern Python you could use TaskGroups which will keep references to your tasks. As long as all the tasks you spin up are in TaskGroups, you should be fine.

    Every widget in Textual, be it a button, tree view, or a text input, runs an asyncio task. There is even a task for scrollbar corners (the little space formed when horizontal and vertical scrollbars meet).
     
    Info
     
    It may be IO that gives AsyncIO its name, but Textual doesn't do any IO of its own. Those tasks are used to power message queues, so that widgets (UI components) can do whatever they do at their own pace.
     
    Its fair to say that Textual apps launch a lot of tasks. Which is why when I was trying to optimize startup (for apps with 1000s of widgets) I suspected it was task related.
     
    I needed to know how much of an overhead it was to launch tasks. Tasks are lighter weight than threads, but how much lighter? The only way to know for certain was to profile.
     
    The following code launches a load of do nothing tasks, then waits for them to shut down. This would give me an idea of how performant create_task is, and also a baseline for optimizations. I would know the absolute limit of any optimizations I make.
     
    from asyncio import create_task, wait, run\nfrom time import process_time as time\nasync def time_tasks(count=100) -> float:\n\"\"\"Time creating and destroying tasks.\"\"\"\nasync def nop_task() -> None:\n\"\"\"Do nothing task.\"\"\"\npass\nstart = time()\ntasks = [create_task(nop_task()) for _ in range(count)]\nawait wait(tasks)\nelapsed = time() - start\nreturn elapsed\nfor count in range(100_000, 1000_000 + 1, 100_000):\ncreate_time = run(time_tasks(count))\ncreate_per_second = 1 / (create_time / count)\nprint(f\"{count:,} tasks \\t {create_per_second:0,.0f} tasks per/s\")\n
     
    And here is the output:
     
    100,000 tasks    280,003 tasks per/s\n200,000 tasks    255,275 tasks per/s\n300,000 tasks    248,713 tasks per/s\n400,000 tasks    248,383 tasks per/s\n500,000 tasks    241,624 tasks per/s\n600,000 tasks    260,660 tasks per/s\n700,000 tasks    244,510 tasks per/s\n800,000 tasks    247,455 tasks per/s\n900,000 tasks    242,744 tasks per/s\n1,000,000 tasks          259,715 tasks per/s\n
     
    Info
     
    Running on an M1 MacBook Pro.
     
    This tells me I can create, run, and shutdown 260K tasks per second.
     
    That's fast.
     
    Clearly create_task is as close as you get to free in the Python world, and I would need to look elsewhere for optimizations. Turns out Textual spends far more time processing CSS rules than creating tasks (obvious in retrospect). I've noticed some big wins there, so the next version of Textual will be faster to start apps with a metric tonne of widgets.
     
    But I still need to know what to do with those scrollbar corners. A task for two characters. I don't even...

    By creating a new layer above all others and assigning a widget to that layer, we can ensure that widget is painted above everything else.
     
    In order to determine where to place the dropdown, we can track the current value in the dropdown by watching the reactive input \u201cvalue\u201d inside the Input widget.

    The exact characters that form the bar are \"\u257a\", \"\u2501\" and \"\u2578\". When the bar sits perfectly within cell boundaries, every character is \u201c\u2501\u201d.

    One of the great features we added to Rich this year was the ability to export console contents to an SVG. This feature was later exposed to Textual, allowing users to capture screenshots of their running Textual apps. Ultimately, I ended up creating a tool for snapshot testing in the Textual codebase.
     
    Snapshot testing is used to ensure that Textual output doesn\u2019t unexpectedly change. On disk, we store what we expect the output to look like. Then, when we run our unit tests, we get immediately alerted if the output has changed.
     
    This essentially automates the process of manually spinning up several apps and inspecting them for unexpected visual changes. It\u2019s great for catching subtle regressions!
     
    In Textual, each CSS property has its own canonical example and an associated snapshot test. If we accidentally break a property in a way that affects the visual output, the chances of it sneaking into a release are greatly reduced, because the corresponding snapshot test will fail.
     
    As part of this work, I built a web interface for comparing snapshots with test output. There\u2019s even a little toggle which highlights the differences, since they\u2019re sometimes rather subtle.
     
    Since the terminal output shown in the video above is just an SVG image, I was able to add the \"Show difference\" functionality by overlaying the two images and applying a single CSS property: mix-blend-mode: difference;.
     
    The snapshot testing functionality itself is implemented as a pytest plugin, and it builds on top of a snapshot testing framework called syrupy.
     
     
    It's quite likely that this will eventually be exposed to end-users of Textual.

    It\u2019s particularly good for displaying simple pixel art images. The SVG image below is also a good example of the SVG export functionality I touched on earlier.
     Rich 
    Since the library generates an object which is renderable using Rich, these can easily be embedded inside Textual applications.
     
    Here's an example of that in a scrapped \"Pok\u00e9dex\" app I threw together:
     
    This is a rather naive approach to the problem... but I did it for fun!
     
    Other methods for displaying images in the terminal include:
     
       
    • A more advanced library like chafa, which uses a range of Unicode characters to achieve a more accurate representation of the image.
      •  
    • One of the available terminal image protocols, such as Sixel, Kitty\u2019s Terminal Graphics Protocol, and iTerm Inline Images Protocol.
      •

    Welcome to the first post on the Textual blog.
     
    I plan on using this as a place to make announcements regarding new releases of Textual, and any other relevant news.
     
    The first piece of news is that we've reorganized this site a little. The Events, Styles, and Widgets references are now under \"Reference\", and what used to be under \"Reference\" is now \"API\" which contains API-level documentation. I hope that's a little clearer than it used to be!

    As of the time of writing, I'm a couple or so days off having been with Textualize for 3 months. It's been fun, and educational, and every bit as engaging as I'd hoped, and more. One thing I hadn't quite prepared for though, but which I really love, is how so many other people are learning Textual along with me.
     
    Even in those three months the library has changed and expanded quite a lot, and it continues to do so. Meanwhile, more people are turning up and using the framework; you can see this online in social media, blogs and of course in the ever-growing list of projects on GitHub which depend on Textual.
     
    This inevitably means there's a lot of people getting to grips with a new tool, and one that is still a bit of a moving target. This in turn means lots of people are coming to us to get help.
     
    As I've watched this happen I've noticed a few patterns emerging. Some of these good or neutral, some... let's just say not really beneficial to those seeking the help, or to those trying to provide the help. So I wanted to write a little bit about the different ways you can get help with Textual and your Textual-based projects, and to also try and encourage people to take the most helpful and positive approach to getting that help.
     
    Now, before I go on, I want to make something very clear: I'm writing this as an individual. This is my own personal view, and my own advice from me to anyone who wishes to take it. It's not Textual (the project) or Textualize (the company) policy, rules or guidelines. This is just some ageing hacker's take on how best to go about asking for help, informed by years of asking for and also providing help in email, on Usenet, on forums, etc.
     
    Or, put another way: if what you read in here seems sensible to you, I figure we'll likely have already hit it off over on GitHub or in the Discord server. ;-)

    At this point this is almost a bit of an FAQ itself, so I thought I'd address it here: where's the best place to ask for help about Textual, and what's the difference between GitHub Issues, Discussions and our Discord server?
     
    I'd suggest thinking of them like this:
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/01/09/so-youre-looking-for-a-wee-bit-of-textual-help/#discord","title":"Discord","text":"
    You have a question, or need help with something, and perhaps you could do with a reply as soon as possible. But, and this is the really important part, it doesn't matter if you don't get a response. If you're in this situation then the Discord server is possibly a good place to start. If you're lucky someone will be hanging about who can help out.
     
    I can't speak for anyone else, but keep this in mind: when I look in on Discord I tend not to go scrolling back much to see if anything has been missed. If something catches my eye, I'll try and reply, but if it doesn't... well, it's mostly an instant chat thing so I don't dive too deeply back in time.
     
    Going from Discord to a GitHub issue
     
    As a slight aside here: sometimes people will pop up in Discord, ask a question about something that turns out looking like a bug, and that's the last we hear of it. Please, please, please, if this happens, the most helpful thing you can do is go raise an issue for us. It'll help us to keep track of problems, it'll help get your problem fixed, it'll mean everyone benefits.
     
    My own advice would be to treat Discord as an ephemeral resource. It happens in the moment but fades away pretty quickly. It's like knocking on a friend's door to see if they're in. If they're not in, you might leave them a note, which is sort of like going to...
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/01/09/so-youre-looking-for-a-wee-bit-of-textual-help/#github","title":"GitHub","text":"
    On the other hand, if you have a question or need some help or something where you want to stand a good chance of the Textual developers (amongst others) seeing it and responding, I'd recommend that GitHub is the place to go. Dropping something into the discussions there, or leaving an issue, ensures it'll get seen. It won't get lost.
     
    As for which you should use -- a discussion or an issue -- I'd suggest this: if you need help with something, or you want to check your understanding of something, or you just want to be sure something is a problem before taking it further, a discussion might be the best thing. On the other hand, if you've got a clear bug or feature request on your hands, an issue makes a lot of sense.
     
    Don't worry if you're not sure which camp your question or whatever falls into though; go with what you think is right. There's no harm done either way (I may move an issue to a discussion first before replying, if it's really just a request for help -- but that's mostly so everyone can benefit from finding it in the right place later on down the line).

    Now on to the fun part. This is where I get a bit preachy. Ish. Kinda. A little bit. Again, please remember, this isn't a set of rules, this isn't a set of official guidelines, this is just a bunch of \"if you want my advice, and I know you didn't ask but you've read this far so you actually sort of did don't say I didn't warn you!\" waffle.
     
    This isn't going to be an exhaustive collection, far from it. But I feel these are some important highlights.

    When looking for help, in any of the locations mentioned above, I'd totally encourage:

    Too much detail is almost always way better than not enough. \"My program didn't run\", often even with some of the code supplied, is so much harder to help than \"I ran this code I'm posting here, and I expected this particular outcome, and I expected it because I'd read this particular thing in the docs and had comprehended it to mean this, but instead the outcome was this exception here, and I'm a bit stuck -- can someone offer some pointers?\"
     
    The former approach means there often ends up having to be a back and forth which can last a long time, and which can sometimes be frustrating for the person asking. Manage frustration: be clear, tell us everything you can.

    If you've read the potions of the documentation that relate to what you're trying to do, it's going to be really helpful if you say so. If you don't, it might be assumed you haven't and you may end up being pointed at them.
     
    So, please, if you've checked the documentation, looked in the FAQ, done a search of past issues or discussions or perhaps even done a search on the Discord server... please say so.

    This one can go a long way when looking for help. Look, I get it, programming is bloody frustrating at times. We've all rage-quit some code at some point, I'm sure. It's likely going to be your moment of greatest frustration when you go looking for help. But if you turn up looking for help acting all grumpy and stuff it's not going to come over well. Folk are less likely to be motivated to lend a hand to someone who seems rather annoyed.
     
    If you throw in a please and thank-you here and there that makes it all the better.

    You could find yourself getting a reply that you're sure won't help at all. That's fair. But be sure to fully consider it first. Perhaps you missed the obvious along the way and this is 100% the course correction you'd unknowingly come looking for in the first place. Sure, the person replying might have totally misunderstood what was being asked, or might be giving a wrong answer (it me! I've totally done that and will again!), but even then a reply along the lines of \"I'm not sure that's what I'm looking for, because...\" gets everyone to the solution faster than \"lol nah\".

    Aye, I get it, being asked questions when you're looking for an answer can be a bit frustrating. But if you find yourself on the receiving end of a small series of questions about your question, keep this in mind: Textual is still rather new and still developing and it's possible that what you're trying to do isn't the correct way to do that thing. To the person looking to help you it may seem to them you have an XY problem.
     
    Entertaining those questions might just get you to the real solution to your problem.

    You don't need me to tell you that a project such as Textual has a global audience. With that rather obvious fact comes the other fact that we don't all share the same first language. So, please, as much as possible, try and allow for that. If someone is trying to help you out, and they make it clear they're struggling to follow you, keep this in mind.

    I suppose this is a variation on \"be polite\" (really, a thanks can go a long way), but there's more to this than a friendly acknowledgement. If someone has gone to the trouble of offering some help, it's helpful to everyone who comes after you to acknowledge if it worked or not. That way a future help-seeker will know if the answer they're reading stands a chance of being the right one.

    Of course the aim is to have every release of Textual be stable and useful, but things will break. So, please, do keep in mind things like:
     
       
    • Textual likely doesn't have your feature of choice just yet.
      •  
    • We might accidentally break something (perhaps pinning Textual and testing   each release is a good plan here?).
      •  
    • We might deliberately break something because we've decided to take a   particular feature or way of doing things in a better direction.

    Of course it can be a bit frustrating a times, but overall the aim is to have the best framework possible in the long run.

    Sure, it can be annoying. You're in your flow, you've got a neat idea for a thing you want to build, you're stuck on one particular thing and you really need help right now!

Badgering individuals, or a whole resource, to reply right now, or complaining that it's been $TIME_PERIOD since you asked and nobody has replied... that's just going to make people less likely to reply.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/01/09/so-youre-looking-for-a-wee-bit-of-textual-help/#unnecessarily-tag-individuals","title":"Unnecessarily tag individuals","text":"
    This one often goes hand in hand with the \"lack patience\" thing: Be it asking on Discord, or in GitHub issues, discussions or even PRs, unnecessarily tagging individuals is a bit rude. Speaking for myself and only myself: I love helping folk with Textual. If I could help everyone all the time the moment they have a problem, I would. But it doesn't work like that. There's any number of reasons I might not be responding to a particular request, including but not limited to (here I'm talking personally because I don't want to speak for anyone else, but I'm sure I'm not alone here):
     
       
    • I have a job. Sure, my job is (in part) Textual, but there's more to it   than that particular issue. I might be doing other stuff.
      •  
    • I have my own projects to work on too. I like coding for fun as well (or   writing preaching old dude blog posts like this I guess, but you get the   idea).
      •  
    • I actually have other interests outside of work hours so I might actually   be out doing a 10k in the local glen, or battling headcrabs in VR, or   something.
      •  
    • Housework. :-/
      •  
     
    You get the idea though. So while I'm off having a well-rounded life, it's not good to get unnecessarily intrusive alerts to something that either a) doesn't actually directly involve me or b) could wait.

    Again, I'm going to speak totally for myself here, but I also feel the general case is polite for all: there's a lot of good support resources available already; sending DMs on Discord or Twitter or in the Fediverse, looking for direct personal support, isn't really the best way to get help. Using the public/collective resources is absolutely the best way to get that help. Why's it a bad idea to dive into DMs? Here's some reasons I think it's not a good idea:
     
       
    • It's a variation on \"unnecessarily tagging individuals\".
      •  
    • You're short-changing yourself when it comes to getting help. If you ask   somewhere more public you're asking a much bigger audience, who   collectively have more time, more knowledge and more experience than a   single individual.
      •  
    • Following on from that, any answers can be (politely) fact-checked or   enhanced by that audience, resulting in a better chance of getting the   best help possible.
      •  
    • The next seeker-of-help gets to miss out on your question and the answer.   If asked and answered in public, it's a record that can help someone else   in the future.

    I suppose this should really be phrased as a do rather than a don't, as here I want to encourage something positive. A few times I've helped people out who have been very apologetic about their questions being \"noob\" questions, or about how they're fairly new to Python, or programming in general. Really, please, don't feel the need to apologise and don't be ashamed of where you're at.
     
    If you've asked something that's obviously answered in the documentation, that's not a problem; you'll likely get pointed at the docs and it's what happens next that's the key bit. If the attitude is \"oh, cool, that's exactly what I needed to be reading, thanks!\" that's a really positive thing. The only time it's a problem is when there's a real reluctance to use the available resources. We've all seen that person somewhere at some point, right? ;-)

    So, that's my waffle over. As I said at the start: this is my own personal thoughts on how to get help with Textual, both as someone whose job it is to work on Textual and help people with Textual, and also as a FOSS advocate and supporter who can normally be found helping Textual users when he's not \"on the clock\" too.
     
    What I've written here isn't exhaustive. Neither is it novel. Plenty has been written on the general subject in the past, and I'm sure more will be written on the subject in the future. I do, however, feel that these are the most common things I notice. I'd say those dos and don'ts cover 90% of \"can I get some help?\" interactions; perhaps closer to 99%.
     
    Finally, and I think this is the most important thing to remember, the next time you are battling some issue while working with Textual: don't lose your head!

    Cutler, armed with a schedule, was urging the team to \"eat its own dog food\". Part macho stunt and part common sense, the \"dog food diet\" was the cornerstone of Cutler\u2019s philosophy.
     
    G. Pascal Zachary \u2014 Show-Stopper!
     
    I can't remember exactly when it was -- it was likely late in 1994 or some time in 1995 -- when I first came across the concept of, or rather the name for the concept of, \"eating your own dog food\". The idea and the name played a huge part in the book Show-Stopper! by G. Pascal Zachary. The idea wasn't new to me of course; I'd been writing code for over a decade by then and plenty of times I'd built things and then used those things to do things, but it was fascinating to a mostly-self-taught 20-something me to be reading this (excellent -- go read it if you care about the history of your craft) book and to see the idea written down and named.
     
    While Textualize isn't (thankfully -- really, I do recommend reading the book) anything like working on the team building Windows NT, the idea of taking a little time out from working on Textual, and instead work with Textual, makes a lot of sense. It's far too easy to get focused on adding things and improving things and tweaking things while losing sight of the fact that people will want to build with your product.
     
    So you can imagine how pleased I was when Will announced that he wanted all of us to spend a couple or so weeks building something with Textual. I had, of course, already written one small application with the library, and had plans for another (in part it's how I ended up working here), but I'd yet to really dive in and try and build something more involved.
     
    Giving it some thought: I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted to build though. I do want to use Textual to build a brand new terminal-based Norton Guide reader (not my first, not by a long way) but I felt that was possibly a bit too niche, and actually could take a bit too long anyway. Maybe not, it remains to be seen.
     
    Eventually I decided on this approach: try and do a quick prototype of some daft idea each day or each couple of days, do that for a week or so, and then finally try and settle down on something less trivial. This approach should work well in that it'll help introduce me to more of Textual, help try out a few different parts of the library, and also hopefully discover some real pain-points with working with it and highlight a list of issues we should address -- as seen from the perspective of a developer working with the library.
     
    So, here I am, at the end of week one. What I want to try and do is briefly (yes yes, I know, this introduction is the antithesis of brief) talk about what I built and perhaps try and highlight some lessons learnt, highlight some patterns I think are useful, and generally do an end-of-week version of a TIL. TWIL?
     
    Yeah. I guess this is a TWIL.

    I started the week by digging out a quick hack I'd done a couple of weeks earlier, with a view to cleaning it up. It started out as a fun attempt to do something with Rich Pixels while also making a terminal-based take on slstats.el. I'm actually pleased with the result and how quickly it came together.
     
    The point of the application itself is to show some general information about the current state of the Second Life grid (hello to any fellow residents of the original Metaverse!), and to also provide a simple region lookup screen that, using Rich Pixels, will display the object map (albeit in pretty low resolution -- but that's the fun of this!).
     
    So the opening screen looks like this:

    Here's a couple of things from the code that I think are worth a highlight, as things to consider when building Textual apps:

    Use of the default Screen that's provided by the App is handy enough, but I feel any non-trivial application should really put as much code as possible in screens that relate to key \"work\". Here's the entirety of my application code:
     
    class GridInfo( App[ None ] ):\n\"\"\"TUI app for showing information about the Second Life grid.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"gridinfo.css\"\n\"\"\"The name of the CSS file for the app.\"\"\"\nTITLE = \"Grid Information\"\n\"\"\"str: The title of the application.\"\"\"\nSCREENS = {\n\"main\": Main,\n\"region\": RegionInfo\n}\n\"\"\"The collection of application screens.\"\"\"\ndef on_mount( self ) -> None:\n\"\"\"Set up the application on startup.\"\"\"\nself.push_screen( \"main\" )\n
     
    You'll notice there's no work done in the app, other than to declare the screens, and to set the main screen running when the app is mounted.

    My initial version of the application had it loading up the data from the Second Life and GridSurvey APIs in Main.on_mount. This obviously wasn't a great idea as it made the startup appear slow. That's when I realised just how handy call_after_refresh is. This meant I could show some placeholder information and then fire off the requests (3 of them: one to get the main grid information, one to get the grid concurrency data, and one to get the grid size data), keeping the application looking active and updating the display when the replies came in.

    While building this app I think there was only really the one pain-point, and I suspect it's mostly more on me than on Textual itself: getting a good layout and playing whack-a-mole with CSS. I suspect this is going to be down to getting more and more familiar with CSS and the terminal (which is different from laying things out for the web), while also practising with various layout schemes -- which is where the revamped Placeholder class is going to be really useful.

    The next application was initially going to be a very quick hack, but actually turned into a less-trivial build than I'd initially envisaged; not in a negative way though. The more I played with it the more I explored and I feel that this ended up being my first really good exploration of some useful (personal -- your kilometerage may vary) patterns and approaches when working with Textual.
     
    The application itself is a terminal client for the Bored-API. I had initially intended to roll my own code for working with the API, but I noticed that someone had done a nice library for it and it seemed silly to not build on that. Not needing to faff with that, I could concentrate on the application itself.
     
    At first I was just going to let the user click away at a button that showed a random activity, but this quickly morphed into a \"why don't I make this into a sort of TODO list builder app, where you can add things to do when you are bored, and delete things you don't care for or have done\" approach.

    and here's a view of the filter pop-over:

    This came about from me overloading the use of the escape key. I wanted it to work more or less like this:
     
       
    • If you're inside an activity, move focus up to the activity type selection   buttons.
      •  
    • If the filter pop-over is visible, close that.
      •  
    • Otherwise exit the application.
      •  
     
    It was easy enough to do, and I had an action in the Main screen that escape was bound to (again, in the Main screen) that did all this logic with some if/elif work but it didn't feel elegant. Moreover, it meant that the Footer always displayed the same description for the key.
     
    That's when I realised that it made way more sense to have a Binding for escape in every widget that was the actual context for escape's use. So I went from one top-level binding to...
     
    ...\nclass Activity( Widget ):\n\"\"\"A widget that holds and displays a suggested activity.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [\n...\nBinding( \"escape\", \"deselect\", \"Switch to Types\" )\n]\n...\nclass Filters( Vertical ):\n\"\"\"Filtering sidebar.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [\nBinding( \"escape\", \"close\", \"Close Filters\" )\n]\n...\nclass Main( Screen ):\n\"\"\"The main application screen.\"\"\"\nBINDINGS = [\nBinding( \"escape\", \"quit\", \"Close\" )\n]\n\"\"\"The bindings for the main screen.\"\"\"\n
     
    This was so much cleaner and I got better Footer descriptions too. I'm going to be leaning hard on this approach from now on.

    Until I wrote this application I hadn't really had a need to define or use my own Messages. During work on this I realised how handy they really are. In the code I have an Activity widget which takes care of the job of moving itself amongst its siblings if the user asks to move an activity up or down. When this happens I also want the Main screen to save the activities to the filesystem as things have changed.
     
    Thing is: I don't want the screen to know what an Activity is capable of and I don't want an Activity to know what the screen is capable of; especially the latter as I really don't want a child of a screen to know what the screen can do (in this case \"save stuff\").
     
    This is where messages come in. Using a message I could just set things up so that the Activity could shout out \"HEY I JUST DID A THING THAT CHANGES ME\" and not care who is listening and not care what they do with that information.
     
    So, thanks to this bit of code in my Activity widget...
     
        class Moved( Message ):\n\"\"\"A message to indicate that an activity has moved.\"\"\"\ndef action_move_up( self ) -> None:\n\"\"\"Move this activity up one place in the list.\"\"\"\nif self.parent is not None and not self.is_first:\nparent = cast( Widget, self.parent )\nparent.move_child(\nself, before=parent.children.index( self ) - 1\n)\nself.emit_no_wait( self.Moved( self ) )\nself.scroll_visible( top=True )\n
     
    ...the Main screen can do this:
     
        def on_activity_moved( self, _: Activity.Moved ) -> None:\n\"\"\"React to an activity being moved.\"\"\"\nself.save_activity_list()\n

    The code above used emit_no_wait. Since this blog post was first published that method has been removed from Textual. You should use post_message_no_wait or post_message instead now.

    On top of the issues of getting to know terminal-based-CSS that I mentioned earlier:
     
       
    • Textual currently lacks any sort of selection list or radio-set widget.   This meant that I couldn't quite do the activity type picking how I would   have wanted. Of course I could have rolled my own widgets for this, but I   think I'd sooner wait until such things are in Textual   itself.
      •  
    • Similar to that, I could have used some validating Input widgets. They   too are on the roadmap but I managed to cobble together fairly good   working versions for my purposes. In doing so though I did further   highlight that the reactive attribute   facility   needs a wee bit more attention as I ran into some   (already-known) bugs.   Thankfully in my case it was a very easy   workaround.
      •  
    • Scrolling in general seems a wee bit off when it comes to widgets that are   more than one line tall. While there's nothing really obvious I can point   my finger at, I'm finding that scrolling containers sometimes get confused   about what should be in view. This becomes very obvious when forcing   things to scroll from code. I feel this deserves a dedicated test   application to explore this more.

I didn't quite manage my plan of \"one silly trivial prototype per day\", which means I've ended up with two (well technically one and a half I guess given that gridinfo already existed as a prototype) applications rather than four. I'm okay with that. I got a lot of utility out of this.

    It's 8:59 am and, by my Portuguese standards, it is freezing cold outside: 5 or 6 degrees Celsius. It is my second day at Textualize and I just got into the office. I undress my many layers of clothing to protect me from the Scottish cold and I sit down in my improvised corner of the Textualize office. As I sit down, I turn myself in my chair to face my boss and colleagues to ask \u201cSo, what should I do today?\u201d. I was not expecting Will's answer, but the challenge excited me:
     
    \u201cI thought I'll just throw you in the deep end and have you write some code.\u201d
     
    What happened next was that I spent two days working on PR #1229 to add a new widget to the Textual code base. At the time of writing, the pull request has not been merged yet. Well, to be honest with you, it hasn't even been reviewed by anyone... But that won't stop me from blogging about some of the things I learned while creating this PR.

    This PR adds a widget called Placeholder to Textual. As per the documentation, this widget \u201cis meant to have no complex functionality. Use the placeholder widget when studying the layout of your app before having to develop your custom widgets.\u201d
     
    The point of the placeholder widget is that you can focus on building the layout of your app without having to have all of your (custom) widgets ready. The placeholder widget also displays a couple of useful pieces of information to help you work out the layout of your app, namely the ID of the widget itself (or a custom label, if you provide one) and the width and height of the widget.

    The top left and top right widgets have custom labels. Immediately under the top right placeholder, you can see some placeholders identified as #p3, #p4, and #p5. Those are the IDs of the respective placeholders. Then, rows 2 and 3 contain some placeholders that show their respective size and some placeholders that just contain some text.

    So, how does a code monkey start working on a non-trivial PR within 24 hours of joining a company? The answer is simple: just copy and paste code! But instead of copying and pasting from Stack Overflow, I decided to copy and paste from the internal code base.
     
    My task was to create a new widget, so I thought it would be a good idea to take a look at the implementation of other Textual widgets. For some reason I cannot seem to recall, I decided to take a look at the implementation of the button widget that you can find in _button.py. By looking at how the button widget is implemented, I could immediately learn a few useful things about what I needed to do and some other things about how Textual works.
     
    For example, a widget can have a class attribute called DEFAULT_CSS that specifies the default CSS for that widget. I learned this just from staring at the code for the button widget.
     
    Studying the code base will also reveal the standards that are in place. For example, I learned that for a widget with variants (like the button with its \u201csuccess\u201d and \u201cerror\u201d variants), the widget gets a CSS class with the name of the variant prefixed by a dash. You can learn this by looking at the method Button.watch_variant:
     
    class Button(Static, can_focus=True):\n# ...\ndef watch_variant(self, old_variant: str, variant: str):\nself.remove_class(f\"-{old_variant}\")\nself.add_class(f\"-{variant}\")\n
     
    In short, looking at code and files that are related to the things you need to do is a great way to get information about things you didn't even know you needed.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/22/what-i-learned-from-my-first-non-trivial-pr/#handling-the-placeholder-variant","title":"Handling the placeholder variant","text":"
    A button widget can have a different variant, which is mostly used by Textual to determine the CSS that should apply to the given button. For the placeholder widget, we want the variant to determine what information the placeholder shows. The original GitHub issue mentions 5 variants for the placeholder:
     
       
    • a variant that just shows a label or the placeholder ID;
      •  
    • a variant that shows the size and location of the placeholder;
      •  
    • a variant that shows the state of the placeholder (does it have focus? is the mouse over it?);
      •  
    • a variant that shows the CSS that is applied to the placeholder itself; and
      •  
    • a variant that shows some text inside the placeholder.
      •  
     
    The variant can be assigned when the placeholder is first instantiated, for example, Placeholder(\"css\") would create a placeholder that shows its own CSS. However, we also want to have an on_click handler that cycles through all the possible variants. I was getting ready to reinvent the wheel when I remembered that the standard module itertools has a lovely tool that does exactly what I needed! Thus, all I needed to do was create a new cycle through the variants each time a placeholder is created and then grab the next variant whenever the placeholder is clicked:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\ndef __init__(\nself,\nvariant: PlaceholderVariant = \"default\",\n*,\nlabel: str | None = None,\nname: str | None = None,\nid: str | None = None,\nclasses: str | None = None,\n) -> None:\n# ...\nself.variant = self.validate_variant(variant)\n# Set a cycle through the variants with the correct starting point.\nself._variants_cycle = cycle(_VALID_PLACEHOLDER_VARIANTS_ORDERED)\nwhile next(self._variants_cycle) != self.variant:\npass\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Click handler to cycle through the placeholder variants.\"\"\"\nself.cycle_variant()\ndef cycle_variant(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Get the next variant in the cycle.\"\"\"\nself.variant = next(self._variants_cycle)\n
     
    I am just happy that I had the insight to add this little while loop when a placeholder is instantiated:
     
    from itertools import cycle\n# ...\nclass Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef __init__(...):\n# ...\nself._variants_cycle = cycle(_VALID_PLACEHOLDER_VARIANTS_ORDERED)\nwhile next(self._variants_cycle) != self.variant:\npass\n
     
    Can you see what would be wrong if this loop wasn't there?

    If the variant of the placeholder is supposed to determine what information the placeholder shows, then that information must be updated every time the variant of the placeholder changes. Thankfully, Textual has reactive attributes and watcher methods, so all I needed to do was... Defer the problem to another method:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\nvariant = reactive(\"default\")\n# ...\ndef watch_variant(\nself, old_variant: PlaceholderVariant, variant: PlaceholderVariant\n) -> None:\nself.validate_variant(variant)\nself.remove_class(f\"-{old_variant}\")\nself.add_class(f\"-{variant}\")\nself.call_variant_update()  # <-- let this method do the heavy lifting!\n
     
    Doing this properly required some thinking. Not that the current proposed solution is the best possible, but I did think of worse alternatives while I was thinking how to tackle this. I wasn't entirely sure how I would manage the variant-dependant rendering because I am not a fan of huge conditional statements that look like switch statements:
     
    if variant == \"default\":\n# render the default placeholder\nelif variant == \"size\":\n# render the placeholder with its size\nelif variant == \"state\":\n# render the state of the placeholder\nelif variant == \"css\":\n# render the placeholder with its CSS rules\nelif variant == \"text\":\n# render the placeholder with some text inside\n
     
    However, I am a fan of using the built-in getattr and I thought of creating a rendering method for each different variant. Then, all I needed to do was make sure the variant is part of the name of the method so that I can programmatically determine the name of the method that I need to call. This means that the method Placeholder.call_variant_update is just this:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef call_variant_update(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Calls the appropriate method to update the render of the placeholder.\"\"\"\nupdate_variant_method = getattr(self, f\"_update_{self.variant}_variant\")\nupdate_variant_method()\n
     
    If self.variant is, say, \"size\", then update_variant_method refers to _update_size_variant:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef _update_size_variant(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the placeholder with the size of the placeholder.\"\"\"\nwidth, height = self.size\nself._placeholder_label.update(f\"[b]{width} x {height}[/b]\")\n
     
    This variant \"size\" also interacts with resizing events, so we have to watch out for those:
     
    class Placeholder(Static):\n# ...\ndef on_resize(self, event: events.Resize) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the placeholder \"size\" variant with the new placeholder size.\"\"\"\nif self.variant == \"size\":\nself._update_size_variant()\n

    To conclude this blog post, let me muse about the fact that the original issue mentioned five placeholder variants and that my PR only includes two and a half.
     
    After careful consideration and after coming up with the getattr mechanism to update the display of the placeholder according to the active variant, I started showing the \u201cfinal\u201d product to Will and my other colleagues. Eventually, we ended up getting rid of the variant for CSS and the variant that shows the placeholder state. This means that I had to delete part of my code even before it saw the light of day.
     
    On the one hand, deleting those chunks of code made me a bit sad. After all, I had spent quite some time thinking about how to best implement that functionality! But then, it was time to write documentation and tests, and I verified that the best code is the code that you don't even write! The code you don't write is guaranteed to have zero bugs and it also does not need any documentation whatsoever!
     
    So, it was a shame that some lines of code I poured my heart and keyboard into did not get merged into the Textual code base. On the other hand, I am quite grateful that I won't have to fix the bugs that will certainly reveal themselves in a couple of weeks or months from now. Heck, the code hasn't been merged yet and just by writing this blog post I noticed a couple of tweaks that were missing!

    Broadly speaking, there are two types of contributions you can make to an Open Source project.
     
    The first type is typically a bug fix, but could also be a documentation update, linting fix, or other change which doesn't impact core functionality. Such a contribution is like cake. It's a simple, delicious, gift to the project.
     
    The second type of contribution often comes in the form of a new feature. This contribution likely represents a greater investment of time and effort than a bug fix. It is still a gift to the project, but this contribution is not cake.
     
    A feature PR has far more in common with a puppy. The maintainer(s) may really like the feature but hesitate to merge all the same. They may even reject the contribution entirely. This is because a feature PR requires an ongoing burden to maintain. In the same way that a puppy needs food and walkies, a new feature will require updates and fixes long after the original contribution. Even if it is an amazing feature, the maintainer may not want to commit to that ongoing work.
     
     
    The chances of a feature being merged can depend on the maturity of the project. At the beginning of a project, a maintainer may be delighted with a new feature contribution. After all, having others join you to build something is the joy of Open Source. And yet when a project gets more mature there may be a growing resistance to adding new features, and a greater risk that a feature PR is rejected or sits unappreciated in the PR queue.
     
    So how should a contributor avoid this? If there is any doubt, it's best to propose the feature to the maintainers before undertaking the work. In all likelihood they will be happy for your contribution, just be prepared for them to say \"thanks but no thanks\". Don't take it as a rejection of your gift: it's just that the maintainer can't commit to taking on a puppy.
     
    There are other ways to contribute code to a project that don't require the code to be merged in to the core. You could publish your change as a third party library. Take it from me: maintainers love it when their project spawns an ecosystem. You could also blog about how you solved your problem without an update to the core project. Having a resource that can be googled for, or a maintainer can direct people to, can be a huge help.
     
    What prompted me to think about this is that my two main projects, Rich and Textual, are at quite different stages in their lifetime. Rich is relatively mature, and I'm unlikely to accept a puppy. If you can achieve what you need without adding to the core library, I am probably going to decline a new feature. Textual is younger and still accepting puppies \u2014 in addition to stick insects, gerbils, capybaras and giraffes.

    Tip
     
    You can generate these SVG screenshots for your app with textual run my_app.py --screenshot 5 which will export a screenshot after 5 seconds.
     
    There are actually 2 new widgets: Markdown for a simple Markdown document, and MarkdownViewer which adds browser-like navigation and a table of contents.
     
    Textual has had support for Markdown since day one by embedding a Rich Markdown object -- which still gives decent results! This new widget adds dynamic controls such as scrollable code fences and tables, in addition to working links.
     
    In future releases we plan on adding more Markdown extensions, and the ability to easily embed custom widgets within the document. I'm sure there are plenty of interesting applications that could be powered by dynamically generated Markdown documents.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/15/textual-0110-adds-a-beautiful-markdown-widget/#datatable-improvements","title":"DataTable improvements","text":"
    There has been a lot of work on the DataTable API. We've added the ability to sort the data, which required that we introduce the concept of row and column keys. You can now reference rows / columns / cells by their coordinate or by row / column key.
     
    Additionally there are new update_cell and update_cell_at methods to update cells after the data has been populated. Future releases will have more methods to manipulate table data, which will make it a very general purpose (and powerful) widget.

    The Tree widget has grown a few methods to programmatically expand, collapse and toggle tree nodes.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/15/textual-0110-adds-a-beautiful-markdown-widget/#breaking-changes","title":"Breaking changes","text":"
    There are a few breaking changes in this release. These are mostly naming and import related, which should be easy to fix if you are affected. Here's a few notable examples:
     
       
    • Checkbox has been renamed to Switch. This is because we plan to introduce complimentary Checkbox and RadioButton widgets in a future release, but we loved the look of Switches too much to drop them.
      •  
    • We've dropped the emit and emit_no_wait methods. These methods posted message to the parent widget, but we found that made it problematic to subclass widgets. In almost all situations you want to replace these with self.post_message (or self.post_message_no_wait).
      •  
     
    Be sure to check the CHANGELOG for the full details on potential breaking changes.

    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/24/textual-0120-adds-syntactical-sugar-and-batch-updates/#better-compose","title":"Better compose","text":"
    We've added a little syntactical sugar to Textual's compose methods, which aids both readability and editability (that might not be a word).
     
    First, let's look at the old way of building compose methods. This snippet is taken from the textual colors command.
     
    for color_name in ColorSystem.COLOR_NAMES:\nitems: list[Widget] = [ColorLabel(f'\"{color_name}\"')]\nfor level in LEVELS:\ncolor = f\"{color_name}-{level}\" if level else color_name\nitem = ColorItem(\nColorBar(f\"${color}\", classes=\"text label\"),\nColorBar(\"$text-muted\", classes=\"muted\"),\nColorBar(\"$text-disabled\", classes=\"disabled\"),\nclasses=color,\n)\nitems.append(item)\nyield ColorGroup(*items, id=f\"group-{color_name}\")\n
     
    This code composes the following color swatches:

    Tip
     
    You can see this by running textual colors from the command line.
     
    The old way was not all that bad, but it did make it hard to see the structure of your app at-a-glance, and editing compose methods always felt a little laborious.
     
    Here's the new syntax, which uses context managers to add children to containers:
     
    for color_name in ColorSystem.COLOR_NAMES:\nwith ColorGroup(id=f\"group-{color_name}\"):\nyield Label(f'\"{color_name}\"')\nfor level in LEVELS:\ncolor = f\"{color_name}-{level}\" if level else color_name\nwith ColorItem(classes=color):\nyield ColorBar(f\"${color}\", classes=\"text label\")\nyield ColorBar(\"$text-muted\", classes=\"muted\")\nyield ColorBar(\"$text-disabled\", classes=\"disabled\")\n
     
    The context manager approach generally results in fewer lines of code, and presents attributes on the same line as containers themselves. Additionally, adding widgets to a container can be as simple is indenting them.
     
    You can still construct widgets and containers with positional arguments, but this new syntax is preferred. It's not documented yet, but you can start using it now. We will be updating our examples in the next few weeks.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/02/24/textual-0120-adds-syntactical-sugar-and-batch-updates/#batch-updates","title":"Batch updates","text":"
    Textual is smart about performing updates to the screen. When you make a change that might repaint the screen, those changes don't happen immediately. Textual makes a note of them, and repaints the screen a short time later (around a 1/60th of a second). Multiple updates are combined so that Textual does less work overall, and there is none of the flicker you might get with multiple repaints.
     
    Although this works very well, it is possible to introduce a little flicker if you make changes across multiple widgets. And especially if you add or remove many widgets at once. To combat this we have added a batch_update context manager which tells Textual to disable screen updates until the end of the with block.
     
    The new Markdown widget uses this context manager when it updates its content. Here's the code:
     
    with self.app.batch_update():\nawait self.query(\"MarkdownBlock\").remove()\nawait self.mount_all(output)\n
     
    Without the batch update there are a few frames where the old markdown blocks are removed and the new blocks are added (which would be perceived as a brief flicker). With the update, the update appears instant.

    A few widgets (such as Button) had a disabled attribute which would fade the widget a little and make it unselectable. We've extended this to all widgets. Although it is particularly applicable to input controls, anything may be disabled. Disabling a container makes its children disabled, so you could use this for disabling a form, for example.
     
    Tip
     
    Disabled widgets may be styled with the :disabled CSS pseudo-selector.

    Textual version 0.14.0 has landed just a week after 0.13.0.
     
    Note
     
    We like fast releases for Textual. Fast releases means quicker feedback, which means better code.
     
    What's new?
     
    We did a little shake-up of posting messages which will simplify building widgets. But this does mean a few breaking changes.
     
    There are two methods in Textual to post messages: post_message and post_message_no_wait. The former was asynchronous (you needed to await it), and the latter was a regular method call. These two methods have been replaced with a single post_message method.
     
    To upgrade your project to Textual 0.14.0, you will need to do the following:
     
       
    • Remove await keywords from any calls to post_message.
      •  
    • Replace any calls to post_message_no_wait with post_message.
      •  
     
    Additionally, we've simplified constructing messages classes. Previously all messages required a sender argument, which had to be manually set. This was a clear violation of our \"no boilerplate\" policy, and has been dropped. There is still a sender property on messages / events, but it is set automatically.
     
    So prior to 0.14.0 you might have posted messages like the following:
     
    await self.post_message(self.Changed(self, item=self.item))\n
     
    You can now replace it with this simpler function call:
     
    self.post_message(self.Change(item=self.item))\n
     
    This also means that you will need to drop the sender from any custom messages you have created.
     
    If this was code pre-0.14.0:
     
    class MyWidget(Widget):\nclass Changed(Message):\n\"\"\"My widget change event.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, sender:MessageTarget, item_index:int) -> None:\nself.item_index = item_index\nsuper().__init__(sender)\n
     
    You would need to make the following change (dropping sender).
     
    class MyWidget(Widget):\nclass Changed(Message):\n\"\"\"My widget change event.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, item_index:int) -> None:\nself.item_index = item_index\nsuper().__init__()\n
     
    If you have any problems upgrading, join our Discord server, we would be happy to help.

    We've just pushed Textual 0.15.0, only 4 days after the previous version. That's a little faster than our typical release cadence of 1 to 2 weeks.

    The highlight of this release is a new Tabs widget to display tabs which can be navigated much like tabs in a browser. Here's a screenshot:

    I like to tweet progress with widgets on Twitter. See the #textualtabs hashtag which documents progress on this widget.
     
    Also in this release is a new LoadingIndicator widget to display a simple animation while waiting for data. Here's a screenshot:

    Textual 0.16.0 lands 9 days after the previous release. We have some new features to show you.
     
    There are two highlights in this release. In no particular order, the first is TabbedContent which uses a row of tabs to navigate content. You will have likely encountered this UI in the desktop and web. I think in Windows they are known as \"Tabbed Dialogs\".
     
    This widget combines existing Tabs and ContentSwitcher widgets and adds an expressive interface for composing. Here's a trivial example to use content tabs to navigate a set of three markdown documents:
     
    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nwith TabbedContent(\"Leto\", \"Jessica\", \"Paul\"):\nyield Markdown(LETO)\nyield Markdown(JESSICA)\nyield Markdown(PAUL)\n

    The second highlight is a frequently requested feature (FRF?). Widgets now have the two new string properties, border_title and border_subtitle, which will be displayed within the widget's border.
     
    You can set the alignment of these titles via border-title-align and border-subtitle-align. Titles may contain Console Markup, so you can add additional color and style to the labels.

    Breaking change
     
    If you have an app that uses any container classes, you should read this section.
     
    We've made a change to containers in this release. Previously all containers had auto scrollbars, which means that any container would scroll if its children didn't fit. With nested layouts, it could be tricky to understand exactly which containers were scrolling. In 0.16.0 we split containers in to scrolling and non-scrolling versions. So Horizontal will now not scroll by default, but HorizontalScroll will have automatic scrollbars.

    Textual has a concept of \"screens\" which you can think of as independent UI modes, each with their own user interface and logic. The App class keeps a stack of these screens so you can switch to a new screen and later return to the previous screen.

    Screens can be used to build modal dialogs by pushing a screen with controls / buttons, and popping the screen when the user has finished with it. The problem with this approach is that there was nothing to indicate to the user that the original screen was still there, and could be returned to.
     
    In this release we have added alpha support to the Screen's background color which allows the screen underneath to show through, typically blended with a little color. Applying this to a screen makes it clear than the user can return to the previous screen when they have finished interacting with the modal.
     
    Here's how you can enable this effect with CSS:
     
    DialogScreen {\nalign: center middle;\nbackground: $primary 30%;\n}\n
     
    Setting the background to $primary will make the background blue (with the default theme). The addition of 30% sets the alpha so that it will be blended with the background. Here's the kind of effect this creates:

    There are 4 screens in the above screenshot, one for the base screen and one for each of the three dialogs. Note how each screen modifies the color of the screen below, but leaves everything visible.

    Textual has had a ListView widget for a while, which is an excellent way of navigating a list of items (actually other widgets). In this release we've added an OptionList which is similar in appearance, but uses the line api under the hood. The Line API makes it more efficient when you approach thousands of items.

    There's also a new logging handler, and a \"thick\" border type.

    Next week we plan to take a break from building Textual to building apps with Textual. We do this now and again to give us an opportunity to step back and understand things from the perspective of a developer using Textual. We will hopefully have something interesting to show from the exercise, and new Open Source apps to share.

    Less than a week since the last release, and we have a new API to show you.
     
    This release adds a new Worker API designed to manage concurrency, both asyncio tasks and threads.
     
    An API to manage concurrency may seem like a strange addition to a library for building user interfaces, but on reflection it makes a lot of sense. People are building Textual apps to interface with REST APIs, websockets, and processes; and they are running into predictable issues. These aren't specifically Textual problems, but rather general problems related to async tasks and threads. It's not enough for us to point users at the asyncio docs, we needed a better answer.
     
    The new run_worker method provides an easy way of launching \"Workers\" (a wrapper over async tasks and threads) which also manages their lifetime.
     
    One of the challenges I've found with tasks and threads is ensuring that they are shut down in an orderly manner. Interestingly enough, Textual already implemented an orderly shutdown procedure to close the tasks that power widgets: children are shut down before parents, all the way up to the App (the root node). The new API piggybacks on to that existing mechanism to ensure that worker tasks are also shut down in the same order.
     
    Tip
     
    You won't need to worry about this gnarly issue with the new Worker API.
     
    I'm particularly pleased with the new @work decorator which can turn a coroutine OR a regular function into a Textual Worker object, by scheduling it as either an asyncio task or a thread. I suspect this will solve 90% of the concurrency issues we see with Textual apps.
     
    See the Worker API for the details.

    It's been a busy couple of weeks at Textualize. We've been building apps with Textual, as part of our dog-fooding week. The first app, Frogmouth, was released at the weekend and already has 1K GitHub stars! Expect two more such apps this month.

    We haven't stopped developing Textual in that time. Today we released version 0.23.0 which has a really interesting API update I'd like to introduce.
     
    Textual widgets can send messages to each other. To respond to those messages, you implement a message handler with a naming convention. For instance, the Button widget sends a Pressed event. To handle that event, you implement a method called on_button_pressed.
     
    Simple enough, but handler methods are called to handle pressed events from all Buttons. To manage multiple buttons you typically had to write a large if statement to wire up each button to the code it should run. It didn't take many Buttons before the handler became hard to follow.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/05/03/textual-0230-improves-message-handling/#on-decorator","title":"On decorator","text":"
    Version 0.23.0 introduces the @on decorator which allows you to dispatch events based on the widget that initiated them.
     
    This is probably best explained in code. The following two listings respond to buttons being pressed. The first uses a single message handler, the second uses the decorator approach:
     on_decorator01.pyon_decorator02.pyOutput on_decorator01.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:  # (1)!\n\"\"\"Handle all button pressed events.\"\"\"\nif event.button.id == \"bell\":\nself.bell()\nelif event.button.has_class(\"toggle\", \"dark\"):\nself.dark = not self.dark\nelif event.button.id == \"quit\":\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The message handler is called when any button is pressed
      2.  
     on_decorator02.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#bell\")  # (1)!\ndef play_bell(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the bell button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.bell()\n@on(Button.Pressed, \".toggle.dark\")  # (2)!\ndef toggle_dark(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the 'toggle dark' button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#quit\")  # (3)!\ndef quit(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the quit button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Matches the button with an id of \"bell\" (note the # to match the id)
      2.  
    2. Matches the button with class names \"toggle\" and \"dark\"
      3.

    The decorator dispatches events based on a CSS selector. This means that you could have a handler per button, or a handler for buttons with a shared class, or parent.
     
    We think this is a very flexible mechanism that will help keep code readable and maintainable.
    "},{"location":"blog/2023/05/03/textual-0230-improves-message-handling/#why-didnt-we-do-this-earlier","title":"Why didn't we do this earlier?","text":"
    It's a reasonable question to ask: why didn't we implement this in an earlier version? We were certainly aware there was a deficiency in the API.
     
    The truth is simply that we didn't have an elegant solution in mind until recently. The @on decorator is, I believe, an elegant and powerful mechanism for dispatching handlers. It might seem obvious in hindsight, but it took many iterations and brainstorming in the office to come up with it!

    This one required new functionality in Textual itself. The \"pull-down\" overlay with options presented a difficulty with the previous API. The overlay needed to appear over any content below it. This is possible (using layers), but there was no simple way of positioning it directly under the parent widget.
     
    We solved this with a new \"overlay\" concept, which can considered a special layer for user interactions like this Select, but also pop-up menus, tooltips, etc. Widgets styled to use the overlay appear in their natural place in the \"document\", but on top of everything else.
     
    A second problem we tackled was ensuring that an overlay widget was never clipped. This was also solved with a new rule called \"constrain\". Applying constrain to a widget will keep the widget within the bounds of the screen. In the case of Select, if you expand the options while at the bottom of the screen, then the overlay will be moved up so that you can see all the options.
     
    These new rules are currently undocumented as they are still subject to change, but you can see them in the Select source if you are interested.
     
    In a future release these will be finalized and you can confidently use them in your own projects.

    The new @on decorator is proving popular. To recap, it is a more declarative and finely grained way of dispatching messages. Here's a snippet from the calculator example which uses @on:
     
        @on(Button.Pressed, \"#plus,#minus,#divide,#multiply\")\ndef pressed_op(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Pressed one of the arithmetic operations.\"\"\"\nself.right = Decimal(self.value or \"0\")\nself._do_math()\nassert event.button.id is not None\nself.operator = event.button.id\n
     
    The decorator arranges for the method to be called when any of the four math operation buttons are pressed.
     
    In 0.24.0 we've fixed some missing attributes which prevented the decorator from working with some messages. We've also extended the decorator to use keywords arguments, so it will match attributes other than control.

    We've been a little distracted with our \"dogfood\" projects: Frogmouth and Trogon. Both of which hit 1000 Github stars in 24 hours. We will be maintaining / updating those, but it is business as usual for this Textual release (and it's a big one). We have such sights to show you.

    It's been a slow week or two at Textualize, with Textual devs taking well-earned annual leave, but we still managed to get a new version out.
     
    Version 0.29.0 has shipped with a number of fixes (see the release notes for details), but I'd like to use this post to explain a change we made to how Textual developer tools are distributed.
     
    Previously if you installed textual[dev] you would get the Textual dev tools plus the library itself. If you were distributing Textual apps and didn't need the developer tools you could drop the [dev].
     
    We did this because the less dependencies a package has, the fewer installation issues you can expect to get in the future. And Textual is surprisingly lean if you only need to run apps, and not build them.
     
    Alas, this wasn't quite as elegant solution as we hoped. The dependencies defined in extras wouldn't install commands, so textual was bundled with the core library. This meant that if you installed the Textual package without the [dev] you would still get the textual command on your path but it wouldn't run.
     
    We solved this by creating two packages: textual contains the core library (with minimal dependencies) and textual-dev contains the developer tools. If you are building Textual apps, you should install both as follows:
     
    pip install textual textual-dev\n
     
    That's the only difference. If you run in to any issues feel free to ask on the Discord server!

    We have a new release of Textual to talk about, but before that I'd like to cover a little Textual news.
     
    By sheer coincidence we reached 20,000 stars on GitHub today. Now stars don't mean all that much (at least until we can spend them on coffee), but its nice to know that twenty thousand developers thought Textual was interesting enough to hit the \u2605 button. Thank you!
     
    In other news: we moved office. We are now a stone's throw away from Edinburgh Castle. The office is around three times as big as the old place, which means we have room for wide standup desks and dual monitors. But more importantly we have room for new employees. Don't send your CVs just yet, but we hope to grow the team before the end of the year.

    And now, for the main feature. Version 0.30 adds a new notification system. Similar to desktop notifications, it displays a small window with a title and message (called a toast) for a pre-defined number of seconds.
     
    Notifications are great for short timely messages to add supplementary information for the user. Here it is in action:
     
    The API is super simple. To display a notification, call notify() with a message and an optional title.

    We've released version 0.4.0 of Textual.
     
    As this is the first post tagged with release let me first explain where the blog fits in with releases. We plan on doing a post for every note-worthy release. Which likely means all but the most trivial updates (typos just aren't that interesting). Blog posts will be supplementary to release notes which you will find on the Textual repository.
     
    Blog posts will give a little more background for the highlights in a release, and a rationale for changes and new additions. We embrace building in public, which means that we would like you to be as up-to-date with new developments as if you were sitting in our office. It's a small office, and you might not be a fan of the Scottish weather (it's dreich), but you can at least be here virtually.
     
    Release 0.4.0 follows 0.3.0, released on October 31st. Here are the highlights of the update.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/08/version-040/#updated-mount-method","title":"Updated Mount Method","text":"
    The mount method has seen some work. We've dropped the ability to assign an id via keyword attributes, which wasn't terribly useful. Now, an id must be assigned via the constructor. 
     
    The mount method has also grown before and after parameters which tell Textual where to add a new Widget (the default was to add it to the end). Here are a few examples:
     
    # Mount at the start\nself.mount(Button(id=\"Buy Coffee\"), before=0)\n# Mount after a selector\nself.mount(Static(\"Password is incorrect\"), after=\"Dialog Input.-error\")\n# Mount after a specific widget\ntweet = self.query_one(\"Tweet\")\nself.mount(Static(\"Consider switching to Mastodon\"), after=tweet)\n
     
    Textual needs much of the same kind of operations as the JS API exposed by the browser. But we are determined to make this way more intuitive. The new mount method is a step towards that. 
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/08/version-040/#faster-updates","title":"Faster Updates","text":"
    Textual now writes to stdout in a thread. The upshot of this is that Textual can work on the next update before the terminal has displayed the previous frame.
     
    This means smoother updates all round! You may notice this when scrolling and animating, but even if you don't, you will have more CPU cycles to play with in your Textual app.

    A new release of Textual lands 3 weeks after the previous release -- and it's a big one.
     
    Information
     
    If you're new here, Textual is TUI framework for Python.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/12/11/version-060/#tree-control","title":"Tree Control","text":"
    The headline feature of version 0.6.0 is a new tree control built from the ground-up. The previous Tree control suffered from an overly complex API and wasn't scalable (scrolling slowed down with 1000s of nodes).
     
    This new version has a simpler API and is highly scalable (no slowdown with larger trees). There are also a number of visual enhancements in this version.
     
    Here's a very simple example:
     Outputtree.py 
     TreeApp \u25bc\u00a0Dune \u2517\u2501\u2501\u00a0\u25bc\u00a0Characters \u2523\u2501\u2501\u00a0Paul \u2523\u2501\u2501\u00a0Jessica \u2517\u2501\u2501\u00a0Chani 
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Tree\nclass TreeApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\ntree: Tree[dict] = Tree(\"Dune\")\ntree.root.expand()\ncharacters = tree.root.add(\"Characters\", expand=True)\ncharacters.add_leaf(\"Paul\")\ncharacters.add_leaf(\"Jessica\")\ncharacters.add_leaf(\"Chani\")\nyield tree\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = TreeApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here's the tree control being used to navigate some JSON (json_tree.py in the examples directory).
     
    I'm biased of course, but I think this terminal based tree control is more usable (and even prettier) than just about anything I've seen on the web or desktop. So much of computing tends to organize itself in to a tree that I think this widget will find a lot of uses. 
     
    The Tree control forms the foundation of the DirectoryTree widget, which has also been updated. Here it is used in the code_browser.py example:

    Textual version 0.37.0 has landed! The highlight of this release is the new command palette.
     
    A command palette gives users quick access to features in your app. If you hit ctrl+backslash in a Textual app, it will bring up the command palette where you can start typing commands. The commands are matched with a fuzzy search, so you only need to type two or three characters to get to any command.
     
    Here's a video of it in action:
     
    Adding your own commands to the command palette is a piece of cake. Here's the (command) Provider class used in the example above:
     
    class ColorCommands(Provider):\n\"\"\"A command provider to select colors.\"\"\"\nasync def search(self, query: str) -> Hits:\n\"\"\"Called for each key.\"\"\"\nmatcher = self.matcher(query)\nfor color in COLOR_NAME_TO_RGB.keys():\nscore = matcher.match(color)\nif score > 0:\nyield Hit(\nscore,\nmatcher.highlight(color),\npartial(self.app.post_message, SwitchColor(color)),\n)\n
     
    And here is how you add a provider to your app:
     
    class ColorApp(App):\n\"\"\"Experiment with the command palette.\"\"\"\nCOMMANDS = App.COMMANDS | {ColorCommands}\n
     
    We're excited about this feature because it is a step towards bringing a common user interface to Textual apps.
     
    Quote
     
    It's a Textual app. I know this.
     
    \u2014 You, maybe.
     
    The goal is to be able to build apps that may look quite different, but take no time to learn, because once you learn how to use one Textual app, you can use them all.
     
    See the Guide for details on how to work with the command palette.

    Whenever you are cooking a time-consuming meal, you want to multitask as much as possible. For example, you do not want to stand still while you wait for a pot of water to start boiling. Similarly, you want your applications to remain responsive (i.e., you want the cook to \u201cmultitask\u201d) while they do some time-consuming operations in the background (e.g., while the water heats up).
     
    The animation below shows an example of an application that remains responsive (colours on the left still change on click) even while doing a bunch of time-consuming operations (shown on the right).

Suppose we have an application that needs to display a huge amount of data that needs to be read and parsed from a file. The first time I had to do something like this, I ended up writing an application that \u201cblocked\u201d. This means that while the application was reading and parsing the data, nothing else worked.
     
    To exemplify this type of scenario, I created a simple application that spends five seconds preparing some data. After the data is ready, we display a Label on the right that says that the data has been loaded. On the left, the app has a big rectangle (a custom widget called ColourChanger) that you can click and that changes background colours randomly.
     
    When you start the application, you can click the rectangle on the left to change the background colour of the ColourChanger, as the animation below shows:
     
     
    However, as soon as you press l to trigger the data loading process, clicking the ColourChanger widget doesn't do anything. The app doesn't respond because it is busy working on the data. This is the code of the app so you can try it yourself:
     
    import time\nfrom random import randint\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.containers import Grid, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Label\nclass ColourChanger(Widget):  # (1)!\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\nself.styles.background = Color(\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\n)\nclass MyApp(App[None]):\nBINDINGS = [(\"l\", \"load\", \"Load data\")]  # (2)!\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Grid {\n        grid-size: 2;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Grid(\nColourChanger(),\nVerticalScroll(id=\"log\"),\n)\nyield Footer()\ndef action_load(self) -> None:  # (3)!\ntime.sleep(5)  # (4)!\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Data loaded \u2705\"))\nMyApp().run()\n
     
       
    1. The widget ColourChanger changes colours, randomly, when clicked.
      2.  
    2. We create a binding to the key l that runs an action that we know will take some time (for example, reading and parsing a huge file).
      3.  
    3. The method action_load is responsible for starting our time-consuming task and then reporting back.
      4.  
    4. To simplify things a bit, our \u201ctime-consuming task\u201d is just standing still for 5 seconds.
      5.  
     
    I think it is easy to understand why the widget ColourChanger stops working when we hit the time.sleep call if we consider the cooking analogy I have written about before in my blog. In short, Python behaves like a lone cook in a kitchen:
     
       
    • the cook can be clever and multitask. For example, while water is heating up and being brought to a boil, the cook can go ahead and chop some vegetables.
      •  
    • however, there is only one cook in the kitchen, so if the cook is chopping up vegetables, they can't be seasoning a salad.
      •  
     
    Things like \u201cchopping up vegetables\u201d and \u201cseasoning a salad\u201d are blocking, i.e., they need the cook's time and attention. In the app that I showed above, the call to time.sleep is blocking, so the cook can't go and do anything else until the time interval elapses.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/12/07/letting-your-cook-multitask-while-bringing-water-to-a-boil/#how-can-a-cook-multitask","title":"How can a cook multitask?","text":"
    It makes a lot of sense to think that a cook would multitask in their kitchen, but Python isn't like a smart cook. Python is like a very dumb cook who only ever does one thing at a time and waits until each thing is completely done before doing the next thing. So, by default, Python would act like a cook who fills up a pan with water, starts heating the water, and then stands there staring at the water until it starts boiling instead of doing something else. It is by using the module asyncio from the standard library that our cook learns to do other tasks while awaiting the completion of the things they already started doing.
     
    Textual is an async framework, which means it knows how to interoperate with the module asyncio and this will be the solution to our problem. By using asyncio with the tasks we want to run in the background, we will let the application remain responsive while we load and parse the data we need, or while we crunch the numbers we need to crunch, or while we connect to some slow API over the Internet, or whatever it is you want to do.
     
    The module asyncio uses the keyword async to know which functions can be run asynchronously. In other words, you use the keyword async to identify functions that contain tasks that would otherwise force the cook to waste time. (Functions with the keyword async are called coroutines.)
     
    The module asyncio also introduces a function asyncio.create_task that you can use to run coroutines concurrently. So, if we create a coroutine that is in charge of doing the time-consuming operation and then run it with asyncio.create_task, we are well on our way to fix our issues.
     
    However, the keyword async and asyncio.create_task alone aren't enough. Consider this modification of the previous app, where the method action_load now uses asyncio.create_task to run a coroutine who does the sleeping:
     
    import asyncio\nimport time\nfrom random import randint\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.containers import Grid, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Label\nclass ColourChanger(Widget):\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\nself.styles.background = Color(\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\n)\nclass MyApp(App[None]):\nBINDINGS = [(\"l\", \"load\", \"Load data\")]\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Grid {\n        grid-size: 2;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Grid(\nColourChanger(),\nVerticalScroll(id=\"log\"),\n)\nyield Footer()\ndef action_load(self) -> None:  # (1)!\nasyncio.create_task(self._do_long_operation())  # (2)!\nasync def _do_long_operation(self) -> None:  # (3)!\ntime.sleep(5)\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Data loaded \u2705\"))\nMyApp().run()\n
     
       
    1. The action method action_load now defers the heavy lifting to another method we created.
      2.  
    2. The time-consuming operation can be run concurrently with asyncio.create_task because it is a coroutine.
      3.  
    3. The method _do_long_operation has the keyword async, so it is a coroutine.
      4.  
     
    This modified app also works but it suffers from the same issue as the one before! The keyword async tells Python that there will be things inside that function that can be awaited by the cook. That is, the function will do some time-consuming operation that doesn't require the cook's attention. However, we need to tell Python which time-consuming operation doesn't require the cook's attention, i.e., which time-consuming operation can be awaited, with the keyword await.
     
    Whenever we want to use the keyword await, we need to do it with objects that are compatible with it. For many things, that means using specialised libraries:
     
       
    • instead of time.sleep, one can use await asyncio.sleep;
      •  
    • instead of the module requests to make Internet requests, use aiohttp; or
      •  
    • instead of using the built-in tools to read files, use aiofiles.
      •

    To fix the last example application, all we need to do is replace the call to time.sleep with a call to asyncio.sleep and then use the keyword await to signal Python that we can be doing something else while we sleep. The animation below shows that we can still change colours while the application is completing the time-consuming operation.
     CodeAnimation 
    import asyncio\nimport time\nfrom random import randint\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.containers import Grid, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Label\nclass ColourChanger(Widget):\ndef on_click(self) -> None:\nself.styles.background = Color(\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\nrandint(1, 255),\n)\nclass MyApp(App[None]):\nBINDINGS = [(\"l\", \"load\", \"Load data\")]\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Grid {\n        grid-size: 2;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Grid(\nColourChanger(),\nVerticalScroll(id=\"log\"),\n)\nyield Footer()\ndef action_load(self) -> None:\nasyncio.create_task(self._do_long_operation())\nasync def _do_long_operation(self) -> None:\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Starting \u23f3\"))  # (1)!\nawait asyncio.sleep(5)  # (2)!\nself.query_one(\"#log\").mount(Label(\"Data loaded \u2705\"))  # (3)!\nMyApp().run()\n
     
       
    1. We create a label that tells the user that we are starting our time-consuming operation.
      2.  
    2. We await the time-consuming operation so that the application remains responsive.
      3.  
    3. We create a label that tells the user that the time-consuming operation has been concluded.
      4.  
     
     
    Because our time-consuming operation runs concurrently, everything else in the application still works while we await for the time-consuming operation to finish. In particular, we can keep changing colours (like the animation above showed) but we can also keep activating the binding with the key l to start multiple instances of the same time-consuming operation! The animation below shows just this:

    The Rich library has a few functions that are admittedly a little out of scope for a terminal color library. One such function is inspect which is so useful you may want to pip install rich just for this feature.
     
    The easiest way to describe inspect is that it is Python's builtin help() but easier on the eye (and with a few more features). If you invoke it with any object, inspect will display a nicely formatted report on that object \u2014 which makes it great for interrogating objects from the REPL. Here's an example:
     
    >>> from rich import inspect\n>>> text_file = open(\"foo.txt\", \"w\")\n>>> inspect(text_file)\n

    I have been playing around with Textual and recently I decided I needed an indeterminate progress bar to show that some data was loading. Textual is likely to get progress bars in the future, but I don't want to wait for the future! I want my progress bars now!

    Creating a progress bar in Rich is as easy as opening up the documentation for Progress and copying & pasting the code.
     CodeOutput 
    import time\nfrom rich.progress import track\nfor _ in track(range(20), description=\"Processing...\"):\ntime.sleep(0.5)  # Simulate work being done\n
     
     
    The function track provides a very convenient interface for creating progress bars that keep track of a well-specified number of steps. In the example above, we were keeping track of some task that was going to take 20 steps to complete. (For example, if we had to process a list with 20 elements.) However, I am looking for indeterminate progress bars.
     
    Scrolling further down the documentation for rich.progress I found what I was looking for:
     CodeOutput 
    import time\nfrom rich.progress import Progress\nwith Progress() as progress:\n_ = progress.add_task(\"Loading...\", total=None)  # (1)!\nwhile True:\ntime.sleep(0.01)\n
     
       
    1. Setting total=None is what makes it an indeterminate progress bar.
      2.  
     
     
    So, putting an indeterminate progress bar on the screen is easy. Now, I only needed to glue that together with the little I know about Textual to put an indeterminate progress bar in a Textual app.

    What I want is to have an indeterminate progress bar inside my Textual app. Something that looks like this:
     
     
    The GIF above shows just the progress bar. Obviously, the end goal is to have the progress bar be part of a Textual app that does something.
     
    So, when I set out to do this, my first thought went to the stopwatch app in the Textual tutorial because it has a widget that updates automatically, the TimeDisplay. Below you can find the essential part of the code for the TimeDisplay widget and a small animation of it updating when the stopwatch is started.
     TimeDisplay widgetOutput 
    from time import monotonic\nfrom textual.reactive import reactive\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass TimeDisplay(Static):\n\"\"\"A widget to display elapsed time.\"\"\"\nstart_time = reactive(monotonic)\ntime = reactive(0.0)\ntotal = reactive(0.0)\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Event handler called when widget is added to the app.\"\"\"\nself.update_timer = self.set_interval(1 / 60, self.update_time, pause=True)\ndef update_time(self) -> None:\n\"\"\"Method to update time to current.\"\"\"\nself.time = self.total + (monotonic() - self.start_time)\ndef watch_time(self, time: float) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the time attribute changes.\"\"\"\nminutes, seconds = divmod(time, 60)\nhours, minutes = divmod(minutes, 60)\nself.update(f\"{hours:02,.0f}:{minutes:02.0f}:{seconds:05.2f}\")\n
     
     
    The reason the time display updates magically is due to the three methods that I highlighted in the code above:
     
       
    1. The method on_mount is called when the TimeDisplay widget is mounted on the app and, in it, we use the method set_interval to let Textual know that every 1 / 60 seconds we would like to call the method update_time. (In other words, we would like update_time to be called 60 times per second.)
      2.  
    2. In turn, the method update_time (which is called automatically a bunch of times per second) will update the reactive attribute time. When this attribute update happens, the method watch_time kicks in.
      3.  
    3. The method watch_time is a watcher method and gets called whenever the attribute self.time is assigned to.  So, if the method update_time is called a bunch of times per second, the watcher method watch_time is also called a bunch of times per second. In it, we create a nice representation of the time that has elapsed and we use the method update to update the time that is being displayed.
      4.  
     
    I thought it would be reasonable if a similar mechanism needed to be in place for my progress bar, but then I realised that the progress bar seems to update itself... Looking at the indeterminate progress bar example from before, the only thing going on was that we used time.sleep to stop our program for a bit. We didn't do anything to update the progress bar... Look:
     
    with Progress() as progress:\n_ = progress.add_task(\"Loading...\", total=None)  # (1)!\nwhile True:\ntime.sleep(0.01)\n
     
    After pondering about this for a bit, I realised I would not need a watcher method for anything. The watcher method would only make sense if I needed to update an attribute related to some sort of artificial progress, but that clearly isn't needed to get the bar going...
     
    At some point, I realised that the object progress is the object of interest. At first, I thought progress.add_task would return the progress bar, but it actually returns the integer ID of the task added, so the object of interest is progress. Because I am doing nothing to update the bar explicitly, the object progress must be updating itself.
     
    The Textual documentation also says that we can build widgets from Rich renderables, so I concluded that if Progress were a renderable, then I could inherit from Static and use the method update to update the widget with my instance of Progress directly. I gave it a try and I put together this code:
     
    from rich.progress import Progress, BarColumn\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass IndeterminateProgress(Static):\ndef __init__(self):\nsuper().__init__(\"\")\nself._bar = Progress(BarColumn())  # (1)!\nself._bar.add_task(\"\", total=None)  # (2)!\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\n# When the widget is mounted start updating the display regularly.\nself.update_render = self.set_interval(\n1 / 60, self.update_progress_bar\n)  # (3)!\ndef update_progress_bar(self) -> None:\nself.update(self._bar)  # (4)!\nclass MyApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield IndeterminateProgress()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MyApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Create an instance of Progress that just cares about the bar itself (Rich progress bars can have a label, an indicator for the time left, etc).
      2.  
    2. We add the indeterminate task with total=None for the indeterminate progress bar.
      3.  
    3. When the widget is mounted on the app, we want to start calling update_progress_bar 60 times per second.
      4.  
    4. To update the widget of the progress bar we just call the method Static.update with the Progress object because self._bar is a Rich renderable.
      5.  
     
    And lo and behold, it worked:

    A day after creating my basic IndeterminateProgress widget, I found someone that was trying to display a Rich spinner in a Textual app. Actually, it was someone that had filed an issue against Rich. They didn't ask \u201chow can I display a Rich spinner in a Textual app?\u201d, but they filed an alleged bug that crept up on them when they tried displaying a spinner in a Textual app.
     
    When reading the issue I realised that displaying a Rich spinner looked very similar to displaying a Rich progress bar, so I made a tiny change to my code and tried to run it:
     CodeSpinner running

    1. Instead of creating an instance of Progress, we create an instance of Spinner and save it so we can call self.update(self._spinner) later on.

    After creating the progress bar and spinner widgets I thought of creating the little display that was shown at the beginning of the blog post:
     
     
    When writing the code for this app, I realised both widgets had a lot of shared code and logic and I tried abstracting away their common functionality. That led to the code shown below (more or less) where I implemented the updating functionality in IntervalUpdater and then let the IndeterminateProgressBar and SpinnerWidget instantiate the correct Rich renderable.
     
    from rich.progress import Progress, BarColumn\nfrom rich.spinner import Spinner\nfrom textual.app import RenderableType\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Static\nclass IntervalUpdater(Static):\n_renderable_object: RenderableType  # (1)!\ndef update_rendering(self) -> None:  # (2)!\nself.update(self._renderable_object)\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:  # (3)!\nself.interval_update = self.set_interval(1 / 60, self.update_rendering)\nclass IndeterminateProgressBar(IntervalUpdater):\n\"\"\"Basic indeterminate progress bar widget based on rich.progress.Progress.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self) -> None:\nsuper().__init__(\"\")\nself._renderable_object = Progress(BarColumn())  # (4)!\nself._renderable_object.add_task(\"\", total=None)\nclass SpinnerWidget(IntervalUpdater):\n\"\"\"Basic spinner widget based on rich.spinner.Spinner.\"\"\"\ndef __init__(self, style: str) -> None:\nsuper().__init__(\"\")\nself._renderable_object = Spinner(style)  # (5)!\n
     
       
    1. Instances of IntervalUpdate should set the attribute _renderable_object to the instance of the Rich renderable that we want to animate.
      2.  
    2. The methods update_rendering and on_mount are exactly the same as what we had before, both in the progress bar widget and in the spinner widget.
      3.  
    3. The methods update_rendering and on_mount are exactly the same as what we had before, both in the progress bar widget and in the spinner widget.
      4.  
    4. For an indeterminate progress bar we set the attribute _renderable_object to an instance of Progress.
      5.  
    5. For a spinner we set the attribute _renderable_object to an instance of Spinner.
      6.  
     
    But I wanted something more! I wanted to make my app similar to the stopwatch app from the terminal and thus wanted to add a \u201cPause\u201d and a \u201cResume\u201d button. These buttons should, respectively, stop the progress bar and the spinner animations and resume them.
     
    Below you can see the code I wrote and a short animation of the app working.

    1. The method pause looks at the attribute interval_update (returned by the method set_interval) and tells it to stop calling the method update_rendering 60 times per second.
      2.  
    2. The method resume looks at the attribute interval_update (returned by the method set_interval) and tells it to resume calling the method update_rendering 60 times per second.
      3.  
    3. We set two distinct IDs for the two buttons so we can easily tell which button was pressed and what the press of that button means.
      4.  
    4. The event handler on_button_pressed will wait for button presses and will take care of pausing or resuming the animations.
      5.  
    5. We look for all of the instances of IntervalUpdater in our app and use a little bit of introspection to call the correct method (pause or resume) in our widgets. Notice this was only possible because the buttons were assigned IDs that matched the names of the methods. (I love Python !)
      6.  
    6. We go through our two buttons to disable the one that was just pressed and to enable the other one.
      7.  
     
    Screen {\nalign: center middle;\n}\nHorizontal {\nheight: 1fr;\nalign-horizontal: center;\n}\nButton {\nmargin: 0 3 0 3;\n}\nGrid {\nheight: 4fr;\nalign: center middle;\ngrid-size: 3 2;\ngrid-columns: 8;\ngrid-rows: 1;\ngrid-gutter: 1;\nborder: gray double;\n}\nIntervalUpdater {\ncontent-align: center middle;\n}\n
     
     
    If you think this was a lot, take a couple of deep breaths before moving on.
     
    The only issue with my app is that... it does not work! If you press the button to pause the animations, it looks like the widgets are paused. However, you can see that if I move my mouse over the paused widgets, they update:
     
     
    Obviously, that caught me by surprise, in the sense that I expected it work. On the other hand, this isn't surprising. After all, I thought I had guessed how I could solve the problem of displaying these Rich renderables that update live and I thought I knew how to pause and resume their animations, but I hadn't convinced myself I knew exactly why it worked.
     
    Warning
     
    This goes to show that sometimes it is not the best idea to commit code that you wrote and that works if you don't know why it works. The code might seem to work and yet have deficiencies that will hurt you further down the road.
     
    As it turns out, the reason why pausing is not working is that I did not grok why the rendering worked in the first place... So I had to go down that rabbit hole first.

    The most basic way of creating a Textual widget is to inherit from Widget and implement the method render that just returns the thing that must be printed on the screen. Then, the widget Static provides some functionality on top of that: the method update.
     
    The method Static.update(renderable) is used to tell the widget in question that its method render (called when the widget needs to be drawn) should just return renderable. So, if the implementation of the method IntervalUpdater.update_rendering (the method that gets called 60 times per second) is this:
     
    class IntervalUpdater(Static):\n# ...\ndef update_rendering(self) -> None:\nself.update(self._renderable_object)\n
     
    Then, we are essentially saying \u201chey, the thing in self._renderable_object is what must be returned whenever Textual asks you to render yourself. So, this really proves that both Progress and Spinner from Rich are renderables. But what is more, this shows that my implementation of IntervalUpdater can be simplified greatly! In fact, we can boil it down to just this:
     
    class IntervalUpdater(Static):\n_renderable_object: RenderableType\ndef __init__(self, renderable_object: RenderableType) -> None:  # (1)!\nsuper().__init__(renderable_object)  # (2)!\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.interval_update = self.set_interval(1 / 60, self.refresh)  # (3)!\n
     
       
    1. To create an instance of IntervalUpdater, now we give it the Rich renderable that we want displayed. If this Rich renderable is something that updates over time, then those changes will be reflected in the rendering.
      2.  
    2. We initialise Static with the renderable object itself, instead of initialising with the empty string \"\" and then updating repeatedly.
      3.  
    3. We call self.refresh 60 times per second. We don't need the auxiliary method update_rendering because this widget (an instance of Static) already knows what its renderable is.
      4.  
     
    Once you understand the code above you will realise that the previous implementation of update_rendering was actually doing superfluous work because the repeated calls to self.update always had the exact same object. Again, we see strong evidence that the Rich progress bars and the spinners have the inherent ability to display a different representation of themselves as time goes by.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/24/spinners-and-progress-bars-in-textual/#how-rich-spinners-get-updated","title":"How Rich spinners get updated","text":"
    I kept seeing strong evidence that Rich spinners and Rich progress bars updated their own rendering but I still did not have actual proof. So, I went digging around to see how Spinner was implemented and I found this code (from the file spinner.py at the time of writing):
     
    class Spinner:\n# ...\ndef __rich_console__(\nself, console: \"Console\", options: \"ConsoleOptions\"\n) -> \"RenderResult\":\nyield self.render(console.get_time())  # (1)!\n# ...\ndef render(self, time: float) -> \"RenderableType\":  # (2)!\n# ...\nframe_no = ((time - self.start_time) * self.speed) / (  # (3)!\nself.interval / 1000.0\n) + self.frame_no_offset\n# ...\n# ...\n
     
       
    1. The Rich spinner implements the function __rich_console__ that is supposed to return the result of rendering the spinner. Instead, it defers its work to the method render... However, to call the method render, we need to pass the argument console.get_time(), which the spinner uses to know in which state it is!
      2.  
    2. The method render takes a time and returns a renderable!
      3.  
    3. To determine the frame number (the current look of the spinner) we do some calculations with the \u201ccurrent time\u201d, given by the parameter time, and the time when the spinner started!
      4.  
     
    The snippet of code shown above, from the implementation of Spinner, explains why moving the mouse over a spinner (or a progress bar) that supposedly was paused makes it move. We no longer get repeated updates (60 times per second) because we told our app that we wanted to pause the result of set_interval, so we no longer get automatic updates. However, moving the mouse over the spinners and the progress bar makes Textual want to re-render them and, when it does, it figures out that time was not frozen (obviously!) and so the spinners and the progress bar have a different frame to show.
     
    To get a better feeling for this, do the following experiment:
     
       
    1. Run the command textual console in a terminal to open the Textual devtools console.
      2.  
    2. Add a print statement like print(\"Rendering from within spinner\") to the beginning of the method Spinner.render (from Rich).
      3.  
    3. Add a print statement like print(\"Rendering static\") to the beginning of the method Static.render (from Textual).
      4.  
    4. Put a blank terminal and the devtools console side by side.
      5.  
    5. Run the app: notice that you get a lot of both print statements.
      6.  
    6. Hit the Pause button: the print statements stop.
      7.  
    7. Move your mouse over a widget or two: you get a couple of print statements, one from the Static.render and another from the Spinner.render.
      8.  
     
    The result of steps 6 and 7 are shown below. Notice that, in the beginning of the animation, the screen on the right shows some prints but is quiet because no more prints are coming in. When the mouse enters the screen and starts going over widgets, the screen on the right gets new prints in pairs, first from Static.render (which Textual calls to render the widget) and then from Spinner.render because ultimately we need to know how the Spinner looks.
     
     
    Now, at this point, I made another educated guess and deduced that progress bars work in the same way! I still have to prove it, and I guess I will do so in another blog post, coming soon, where our spinner and progress bar widgets can be properly paused!
     
    I will see you soon

    I would like to talk about a serious issue in the Free and Open Source software world. Stealing code. You wouldn't steal a car would you?
     
    But you should steal code from Open Source projects. Respect the license (you may need to give attribution) but stealing code is not like stealing a car. If I steal your car, I have deprived you of a car. If you steal my open source code, I haven't lost anything.
     
    Warning
     
    I'm not advocating for piracy. Open source code gives you explicit permission to use it.
     
    From my point of view, I feel like code has greater value when it has been copied / modified in another project.
     
    There are a number of files and modules in Textual that could either be lifted as is, or wouldn't require much work to extract. I'd like to cover a few here. You might find them useful in your next project.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/20/stealing-open-source-code-from-textual/#loop-first-last","title":"Loop first / last","text":"
    How often do you find yourself looping over an iterable and needing to know if an element is the first and/or last in the sequence? It's a simple thing, but I find myself needing this a lot, so I wrote some helpers in _loop.py.
     
    I'm sure there is an equivalent implementation on PyPI, but steal this if you need it.
     
    Here's an example of use:
     
    for last, (y, line) in loop_last(enumerate(self.lines, self.region.y)):\nyield move_to(x, y)\nyield from line\nif not last:\nyield new_line\n
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/20/stealing-open-source-code-from-textual/#lru-cache","title":"LRU Cache","text":"
    Python's lru_cache can be the one-liner that makes your code orders of magnitude faster. But it has a few gotchas.
     
    The main issue is managing the lifetime of these caches. The decorator keeps a single global cache, which will keep a reference to every object in the function call. On an instance method that means you keep references to self for the lifetime of your app.
     
    For a more flexibility you can use the LRUCache implementation from Textual. This uses essentially the same algorithm as the stdlib decorator, but it is implemented as a container.
     
    Here's a quick example of its use. It works like a dictionary until you reach a maximum size. After that, new elements will kick out the element that was used least recently.
     
    >>> from textual._cache import LRUCache\n>>> cache = LRUCache(maxsize=3)\n>>> cache[\"foo\"] = 1\n>>> cache[\"bar\"] = 2\n>>> cache[\"baz\"] = 3\n>>> dict(cache)\n{'foo': 1, 'bar': 2, 'baz': 3}\n>>> cache[\"egg\"] = 4\n>>> dict(cache)\n{'bar': 2, 'baz': 3, 'egg': 4}\n
     
    In Textual, we use a LRUCache to store the results of rendering content to the terminal. For example, in a datatable it is too costly to render everything up front. So Textual renders only the lines that are currently visible on the \"screen\". The cache ensures that scrolling only needs to render the newly exposed lines, and lines that haven't been displayed in a while are discarded to save memory.
    "},{"location":"blog/2022/11/20/stealing-open-source-code-from-textual/#color","title":"Color","text":"
    Textual has a Color class which could be extracted in to a module of its own.
     
    The Color class can parse colors encoded in a variety of HTML and CSS formats. Color object support a variety of methods and operators you can use to manipulate colors, in a fairly natural way.
     
    Here's some examples in the REPL.
     
    >>> from textual.color import Color\n>>> color = Color.parse(\"lime\")\n>>> color\nColor(0, 255, 0, a=1.0)\n>>> color.darken(0.8)\nColor(0, 45, 0, a=1.0)\n>>> color + Color.parse(\"red\").with_alpha(0.1)\nColor(25, 229, 0, a=1.0)\n>>> color = Color.parse(\"#12a30a\")\n>>> color\nColor(18, 163, 10, a=1.0)\n>>> color.css\n'rgb(18,163,10)'\n>>> color.hex\n'#12A30A'\n>>> color.monochrome\nColor(121, 121, 121, a=1.0)\n>>> color.monochrome.hex\n'#797979'\n>>> color.hsl\nHSL(h=0.3246187363834423, s=0.8843930635838151, l=0.33921568627450976)\n>>>\n

    This may be my favorite module in Textual: geometry.py.
     
    The geometry module contains a number of classes responsible for storing and manipulating 2D geometry. There is an Offset class which is a two dimensional point. A Region class which is a rectangular region defined by a coordinate and dimensions. There is a Spacing class which defines additional space around a region. And there is a Size class which defines the dimensions of an area by its width and height.
     
    These objects are used by Textual's layout engine and compositor, which makes them the oldest and most thoroughly tested part of the project.

    If you know us, you will know that we are the team behind Rich and Textual \u2014 two popular Python libraries that work magic in the terminal.
     
    Note
     
    Not to mention Rich-CLI, Trogon, and Frogmouth
     
    Today we are adding one project more to that lineup: textual-web.
     
    Textual Web takes a Textual-powered TUI and turns it in to a web application. Here's a video of that in action:
     
    With the textual-web command you can publish any Textual app on the web, making it available to anyone you send the URL to. This works without creating a socket server on your machine, so you won't have to configure firewalls and ports to share your applications.
     
    We're excited about the possibilities here. Textual web apps are fast to spin up and tear down, and they can run just about anywhere that has an outgoing internet connection. They can be built by a single developer without any experience with a traditional web stack. All you need is proficiency in Python and a little time to read our lovely docs.
     
    Future releases will expose more of the Web platform APIs to Textual apps, such as notifications and file system access. We plan to do this in a way that allows the same (Python) code to drive those features. For instance, a Textual app might save a file to disk in a terminal, but offer to download it in the browser.
     
    Also in the pipeline is PWA support, so you can build terminal apps, web apps, and desktop apps with a single codebase.
     
    Textual Web is currently in a public beta. Join our Discord server if you would like to help us test, or if you have any questions.

    Tech moves pretty fast. If you don\u2019t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. And yet some technology feels like it has been around forever.
     
    Terminals are one of those forever-technologies.
     
    My interest is in Text User Interfaces:  interactive apps that run within a terminal. I spend lot of time thinking about where TUIs might fit within the tech ecosystem, and how much more they could be doing for developers. Hardly surprising, since that is what we do at Textualize.

    In April we took a break from building Textual, to building apps with Textual. We had three ideas to work on, and three devs to do the work. One idea we parked for later. The other two were so promising we devoted more time to them. Both projects took around three developer-weeks to build, which also included work on Textual itself and standard duties for responding to issues / community requests. We released them in May.
     
    The first project was Frogmouth, a Markdown browser. I think this TUI does better than the equivalent web experience in many ways. The only notable missing feature is images, and that will happen before too long.

    The second project was Trogon, a library this time. Trogon automatically creates a TUI for command line apps. Same deal: we released it on a Sunday morning, and it reached 1K stars even quicker than Frogmouth.

    With previous generations of software, TUIs have required a high degree of motivation to build. That has changed with the work that we (and others) have been doing. A TUI can be a powerful and maintainable piece of software which works as a standalone project, or as a value-add to an existing project.
     
    As a forever-technology, a TUI is a safe bet.

    CSS types define the values that Textual CSS styles accept.
     
    CSS types will be linked from within the styles reference in the \"Formal Syntax\" section of each style. The CSS types will be denoted by a keyword enclosed by angle brackets < and >.
     
    For example, the style align-horizontal references the CSS type <horizontal>:

    The official Textual CSS extension adds syntax highlighting for both external files and inline CSS.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#stylesheets","title":"Stylesheets","text":"
    CSS stands for Cascading Stylesheet. A stylesheet is a list of styles and rules about how those styles should be applied to a web page. In the case of Textual, the stylesheet applies styles to widgets, but otherwise it is the same idea.
     
    Let's look at some Textual CSS.
     
    Header {\ndock: top;\nheight: 3;\ncontent-align: center middle;\nbackground: blue;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    This is an example of a CSS rule set. There may be many such sections in any given CSS file.
     
    Let's break this CSS code down a bit.
     
    Header {\ndock: top;\nheight: 3;\ncontent-align: center middle;\nbackground: blue;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    The first line is a selector which tells Textual which widget(s) to modify. In the above example, the styles will be applied to a widget defined by the Python class Header.
     
    Header {\ndock: top;\nheight: 3;\ncontent-align: center middle;\nbackground: blue;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    The lines inside the curly braces contains CSS rules, which consist of a rule name and rule value separated by a colon and ending in a semicolon. Such rules are typically written one per line, but you could add additional rules as long as they are separated by semicolons.
     
    The first rule in the above example reads \"dock: top;\". The rule name is dock which tells Textual to place the widget on an edge of the screen. The text after the colon is top which tells Textual to dock to the top of the screen. Other valid values for dock are \"right\", \"bottom\", or \"left\"; but \"top\" is most appropriate for a header.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#the-dom","title":"The DOM","text":"
    The DOM, or Document Object Model, is a term borrowed from the web world. Textual doesn't use documents but the term has stuck. In Textual CSS, the DOM is an arrangement of widgets you can visualize as a tree-like structure.
     
    Some widgets contain other widgets: for instance, a list control widget will likely also have item widgets, or a dialog widget may contain button widgets. These child widgets form the branches of the tree.
     
    Let's look at a trivial Textual app.
     dom1.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App\nclass ExampleApp(App):\npass\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     ExampleApp 
     
    This example creates an instance of ExampleApp, which will implicitly create a Screen object. In DOM terms, the Screen is a child of ExampleApp.
     
    With the above example, the DOM will look like the following:

    This doesn't look much like a tree yet. Let's add a header and a footer to this application, which will create more branches of the tree:
     dom2.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Header, Footer\nclass ExampleApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     ExampleApp \u2b58ExampleApp 
     
    With a header and a footer widget the DOM looks like this:

    Note
     
    We've simplified the above example somewhat. Both the Header and Footer widgets contain children of their own. When building an app with pre-built widgets you rarely need to know how they are constructed unless you plan on changing the styles of individual components.
     
    Both Header and Footer are children of the Screen object.
     
    To further explore the DOM, we're going to build a simple dialog with a question and two buttons. To do this we're going to import and use a few more builtin widgets:
     
       
    • textual.layout.Container For our top-level dialog.
      •  
    • textual.layout.Horizontal To arrange widgets left to right.
      •  
    • textual.widgets.Static For simple content.
      •  
    • textual.widgets.Button For a clickable button.
      •  
     dom3.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Container, Horizontal\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nQUESTION = \"Do you want to learn about Textual CSS?\"\nclass ExampleApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield Container(\nStatic(QUESTION, classes=\"question\"),\nHorizontal(\nButton(\"Yes\", variant=\"success\"),\nButton(\"No\", variant=\"error\"),\nclasses=\"buttons\",\n),\nid=\"dialog\",\n)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    We've added a Container to our DOM which (as the name suggests) is a container for other widgets. The container has a number of other widgets passed as positional arguments which will be added as the children of the container. Not all widgets accept child widgets in this way. A Button widget doesn't require any children, for example.

    You may recognize some elements in the above screenshot, but it doesn't quite look like a dialog. This is because we haven't added a stylesheet.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#css-files","title":"CSS files","text":"
    To add a stylesheet set the CSS_PATH classvar to a relative path:
     
    Note
     
    Textual CSS files are typically given the extension .tcss to differentiate them from browser CSS (.css).
     dom4.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Container, Horizontal\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Footer, Header, Static\nQUESTION = \"Do you want to learn about Textual CSS?\"\nclass ExampleApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"dom4.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Footer()\nyield Container(\nStatic(QUESTION, classes=\"question\"),\nHorizontal(\nButton(\"Yes\", variant=\"success\"),\nButton(\"No\", variant=\"error\"),\nclasses=\"buttons\",\n),\nid=\"dialog\",\n)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ExampleApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    You may have noticed that some constructors have additional keyword arguments: id and classes. These are used by the CSS to identify parts of the DOM. We will cover these in the next section.
     
    Here's the CSS file we are applying:
     dom4.tcss
    /* The top level dialog (a Container) */\n#dialog {\nheight: 100%;\nmargin: 4 8;\nbackground: $panel;\ncolor: $text;\nborder: tall $background;\npadding: 1 2;\n}\n/* The button class */\nButton {\nwidth: 1fr;\n}\n/* Matches the question text */\n.question {\ntext-style: bold;\nheight: 100%;\ncontent-align: center middle;\n}\n/* Matches the button container */\n.buttons {\nwidth: 100%;\nheight: auto;\ndock: bottom;\n}\n
     
    The CSS contains a number of rule sets with a selector and a list of rules. You can also add comments with text between /* and */ which will be ignored by Textual. Add comments to leave yourself reminders or to temporarily disable selectors.
     
    With the CSS in place, the output looks very different:

    You can also set the CSS_PATH class variable to a list of paths. Textual will combine the rules from all of the supplied paths.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#why-css","title":"Why CSS?","text":"
    It is reasonable to ask why use CSS at all? Python is a powerful and expressive language. Wouldn't it be easier to set styles in your .py files?
     
    A major advantage of CSS is that it separates how your app looks from how it works. Setting styles in Python can generate a lot of spaghetti code which can make it hard to see the important logic in your application.
     
    A second advantage of CSS is that you can customize builtin and third-party widgets just as easily as you can your own app or widgets.
     
    Finally, Textual CSS allows you to live edit the styles in your app. If you run your application with the following command, any changes you make to the CSS file will be instantly updated in the terminal:
     
    textual run my_app.py --dev\n
     
    Being able to iterate on the design without restarting the application makes it easier and faster to design beautiful interfaces.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#selectors","title":"Selectors","text":"
    A selector is the text which precedes the curly braces in a set of rules. It tells Textual which widgets it should apply the rules to.
     
    Selectors can target a kind of widget or a very specific widget. For instance, you could have a selector that modifies all buttons, or you could target an individual button used in one dialog. This gives you a lot of flexibility in customizing your user interface.
     
    Let's look at the selectors supported by Textual CSS.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#type-selector","title":"Type selector","text":"
    The type selector matches the name of the (Python) class. For example, the following widget can be matched with a Button selector:
     
    from textual.widgets import Static\nclass Button(Static):\npass\n
     
    The following rule applies a border to this widget:
     
    Button {\nborder: solid blue;\n}\n
     
    The type selector will also match a widget's base classes. Consequently, a Static selector will also style the button because the Button Python class extends Static.
     
    Static {\nbackground: blue;\nborder: rounded white;\n}\n
     
    Note
     
    The fact that the type selector matches base classes is a departure from browser CSS which doesn't have the same concept.
     
    You may have noticed that the border rule exists in both Static and Button. When this happens, Textual will use the most recently defined sub-class within a list of bases. So Button wins over Static, and Static wins over Widget (the base class of all widgets). Hence if both rules were in a stylesheet, the buttons would be \"solid blue\" and not \"rounded white\".
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#id-selector","title":"ID selector","text":"
    Every Widget can have a single id attribute, which is set via the constructor. The ID should be unique to its container.
     
    Here's an example of a widget with an ID:
     
    yield Button(id=\"next\")\n
     
    You can match an ID with a selector starting with a hash (#). Here is how you might draw a red outline around the above button:
     
    #next {\noutline: red;\n}\n
     
    A Widget's id attribute can not be changed after the Widget has been constructed.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#class-name-selector","title":"Class-name selector","text":"
    Every widget can have a number of class names applied. The term \"class\" here is borrowed from web CSS, and has a different meaning to a Python class. You can think of a CSS class as a tag of sorts. Widgets with the same tag will share styles.
     
    CSS classes are set via the widget's classes parameter in the constructor. Here's an example:
     
    yield Button(classes=\"success\")\n
     
    This button will have a single class called \"success\" which we could target via CSS to make the button a particular color.
     
    You may also set multiple classes separated by spaces. For instance, here is a button with both an error class and a disabled class:
     
    yield Button(classes=\"error disabled\")\n
     
    To match a Widget with a given class in CSS you can precede the class name with a dot (.). Here's a rule with a class selector to match the \"success\" class name:
     
    .success {\nbackground: green;\ncolor: white;\n}\n
     
    Note
     
    You can apply a class name to any widget, which means that widgets of different types could share classes.
     
    Class name selectors may be chained together by appending another full stop and class name. The selector will match a widget that has all of the class names set. For instance, the following sets a red background on widgets that have both error and disabled class names.
     
    .error.disabled {\nbackground: darkred;\n}\n
     
    Unlike the id attribute, a widget's classes can be changed after the widget was created. Adding and removing CSS classes is the recommended way of changing the display while your app is running. There are a few methods you can use to manage CSS classes.
     
       
    • add_class() Adds one or more classes to a widget.
      •  
    • remove_class() Removes class name(s) from a widget.
      •  
    • toggle_class() Removes a class name if it is present, or adds the name if it's not already present.
      •  
    • has_class() Checks if one or more classes are set on a widget.
      •  
    • classes Is a frozen set of the class(es) set on a widget.
      •  
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#universal-selector","title":"Universal selector","text":"
    The universal selector is denoted by an asterisk and will match all widgets.
     
    For example, the following will draw a red outline around all widgets:
     
    * {\noutline: solid red;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#pseudo-classes","title":"Pseudo classes","text":"
    Pseudo classes can be used to match widgets in a particular state. Pseudo classes are set automatically by Textual. For instance, you might want a button to have a green background when the mouse cursor moves over it. We can do this with the :hover pseudo selector.
     
    Button:hover {\nbackground: green;\n}\n
     
    The background: green is only applied to the Button underneath the mouse cursor. When you move the cursor away from the button it will return to its previous background color.
     
    Here are some other pseudo classes:
     
       
    • :disabled Matches widgets which are in a disabled state.
      •  
    • :enabled Matches widgets which are in an enabled state.
      •  
    • :focus Matches widgets which have input focus.
      •  
    • :focus-within Matches widgets with a focused a child widget.
      •

    More sophisticated selectors can be created by combining simple selectors. The logic used to combine selectors is know as a combinator.
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#descendant-combinator","title":"Descendant combinator","text":"
    If you separate two selectors with a space it will match widgets with the second selector that have an ancestor that matches the first selector.

    Let's say we want to make the text of the buttons in the dialog bold, but we don't want to change the Button in the sidebar. We can do this with the following rule:
     
    #dialog Button {\ntext-style: bold;\n}\n
     
    The #dialog Button selector matches all buttons that are below the widget with an ID of \"dialog\". No other buttons will be matched.
     
    As with all selectors, you can combine as many as you wish. The following will match a Button that is under a Horizontal widget and under a widget with an id of \"dialog\":
     
    #dialog Horizontal Button {\ntext-style: bold;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#child-combinator","title":"Child combinator","text":"
    The child combinator is similar to the descendant combinator but will only match an immediate child. To create a child combinator, separate two selectors with a greater than symbol (>). Any whitespace around the > will be ignored.

    We can use the following CSS to style all buttons which have a parent with an ID of sidebar:
     
    #sidebar > Button {\ntext-style: underline;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#specificity","title":"Specificity","text":"
    It is possible that several selectors match a given widget. If the same style is applied by more than one selector then Textual needs a way to decide which rule wins. It does this by following these rules:
     
       
    •  
      The selector with the most IDs wins. For instance #next beats .button and #dialog #next beats #next. If the selectors have the same number of IDs then move to the next rule.
       
      •  
    •  
      The selector with the most class names wins. For instance .button.success beats .success. For the purposes of specificity, pseudo classes are treated the same as regular class names, so .button:hover counts as 2 class names. If the selectors have the same number of class names then move to the next rule.
       
      •  
    •  
      The selector with the most types wins. For instance Container Button beats Button.
       
      •  
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#important-rules","title":"Important rules","text":"
    The specificity rules are usually enough to fix any conflicts in your stylesheets. There is one last way of resolving conflicting selectors which applies to individual rules. If you add the text !important to the end of a rule then it will \"win\" regardless of the specificity.
     
    Warning
     
    Use !important sparingly (if at all) as it can make it difficult to modify your CSS in the future.
     
    Here's an example that makes buttons blue when hovered over with the mouse, regardless of any other selectors that match Buttons:
     
    Button:hover {\nbackground: blue !important;\n}\n
    "},{"location":"guide/CSS/#css-variables","title":"CSS Variables","text":"
    You can define variables to reduce repetition and encourage consistency in your CSS. Variables in Textual CSS are prefixed with $. Here's an example of how you might define a variable called $border:
     
    $border: wide green;\n
     
    With our variable assigned, we can write $border and it will be substituted with wide green. Consider the following snippet:
     
    #foo {\nborder: $border;\n}\n
     
    This will be translated into:
     
    #foo {\nborder: wide green;\n}\n
     
    Variables allow us to define reusable styling in a single place. If we decide we want to change some aspect of our design in the future, we only have to update a single variable.
     
    Note
     
    Variables can only be used in the values of a CSS declaration. You cannot, for example, refer to a variable inside a selector.
     
    Variables can refer to other variables. Let's say we define a variable $success: lime;. Our $border variable could then be updated to $border: wide $success;, which will be translated to $border: wide lime;.
    "},{"location":"guide/actions/","title":"Actions","text":"
    Actions are allow-listed functions with a string syntax you can embed in links and bind to keys. In this chapter we will discuss how to create actions and how to run them.
    "},{"location":"guide/actions/#action-methods","title":"Action methods","text":"
    Action methods are methods on your app or widgets prefixed with action_. Aside from the prefix these are regular methods which you could call directly if you wished.
     
    Information
     
    Action methods may be coroutines (defined with the async keyword).
     
    Let's write an app with a simple action.
     actions01.py
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual import events\nclass ActionsApp(App):\ndef action_set_background(self, color: str) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = color\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nif event.key == \"r\":\nself.action_set_background(\"red\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ActionsApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The action_set_background method is an action which sets the background of the screen. The key handler above will call this action if you press the R key.
     
    Although it is possible (and occasionally useful) to call action methods in this way, they are intended to be parsed from an action string. For instance, the string \"set_background('red')\" is an action string which would call self.action_set_background('red').
     
    The following example replaces the immediate call with a call to run_action() which parses an action string and dispatches it to the appropriate method.
     actions02.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App\nclass ActionsApp(App):\ndef action_set_background(self, color: str) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = color\nasync def on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nif event.key == \"r\":\nawait self.run_action(\"set_background('red')\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ActionsApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Note that the run_action() method is a coroutine so on_key needs to be prefixed with the async keyword.
     
    You will not typically need this in a real app as Textual will run actions in links or key bindings. Before we discuss these, let's have a closer look at the syntax for action strings.
    "},{"location":"guide/actions/#syntax","title":"Syntax","text":"
    Action strings have a simple syntax, which for the most part replicates Python's function call syntax.
     
    Important
     
    As much as they look like Python code, Textual does not call Python's eval function to compile action strings.
     
    Action strings have the following format:
     
       
    • The name of an action on is own will call the action method with no parameters. For example, an action string of \"bell\" will call action_bell().
      •  
    • Actions may be followed by braces containing Python objects. For example, the action string set_background(\"red\") will call action_set_background(\"red\").
      •

    There are two instances of the custom widget mounted. If you click the links in either of them it will changed the background for that widget only. The R, G, and B key bindings are set on the App so will set the background for the screen.
     
    You can optionally prefix an action with a namespace, which tells Textual to run actions for a different object.
     
    Textual supports the following action namespaces:
     
       
    • app invokes actions on the App.
      •  
    • screen invokes actions on the screen.
      •

    Ths chapter discusses how to use Textual's animation system to create visual effects such as movement, blending, and fading.
    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#animating-styles","title":"Animating styles","text":"
    Textual's animator can change an attribute from one value to another in fixed increments over a period of time. You can apply animations to styles such as offset to move widgets around the screen, and opacity to create fading effects.
     
    Apps and widgets both have an animate method which will animate properties on those objects. Additionally, styles objects have an identical animate method which will animate styles.
     
    Let's look at an example of how we can animate the opacity of a widget to make it fade out. The following example app contains a single Static widget which is immediately animated to an opacity of 0.0 (making it invisible) over a duration of two seconds.
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass AnimationApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nself.box = Static(\"Hello, World!\")\nself.box.styles.background = \"red\"\nself.box.styles.color = \"black\"\nself.box.styles.padding = (1, 2)\nyield self.box\ndef on_mount(self):\nself.box.styles.animate(\"opacity\", value=0.0, duration=2.0)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = AnimationApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The animator updates the value of the opacity attribute on the styles object in small increments over two seconds. Here's what the output will look like after each half a second.
     After 0sAfter 0.5sAfter 1sAfter 1.5sAfter 2s

    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#duration-and-speed","title":"Duration and Speed","text":"
    When requesting an animation you can specify a duration or speed. The duration is how long the animation should take in seconds. The speed is how many units a value should change in one second. For instance, if you animate a value at 0 to 10 with a speed of 2, it will complete in 5 seconds.
    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#easing-functions","title":"Easing functions","text":"
    The easing function determines the journey a value takes on its way to the target value. It could move at a constant pace, or it might start off slow then accelerate towards its final value. Textual supports a number of easing functions.

    You can specify which easing method to use via the easing parameter on the animate method. The default easing method is \"in_out_cubic\" which accelerates and then decelerates to produce a pleasing organic motion.
     
    Note
     
    The textual easing preview requires the textual-dev package to be installed (using pip install textual-dev).

    "},{"location":"guide/animation/#delaying-animations","title":"Delaying animations","text":"
    You can delay the start of an animation with the delay parameter of the animate method. This parameter accepts a float value representing the number of seconds to delay the animation by. For example, self.box.styles.animate(\"opacity\", value=0.0, duration=2.0, delay=5.0) delays the start of the animation by five seconds, meaning the animation will start after 5 seconds and complete 2 seconds after that.

    In this chapter we will cover how to use Textual's App class to create an application. Just enough to get you up to speed. We will go in to more detail in the following chapters.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#the-app-class","title":"The App class","text":"
    The first step in building a Textual app is to import the App class and create a subclass. Let's look at the simplest app class:
     
    from textual.app import App\nclass MyApp(App):\npass\n
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#the-run-method","title":"The run method","text":"
    To run an app we create an instance and call run().
     simple02.py
    from textual.app import App\nclass MyApp(App):\npass\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MyApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Apps don't get much simpler than this\u2014don't expect it to do much.
     
    Tip
     
    The __name__ == \"__main__\": condition is true only if you run the file with python command. This allows us to import app without running the app immediately. It also allows the devtools run command to run the app in development mode. See the Python docs for more information.
     
    If we run this app with python simple02.py you will see a blank terminal, something like the following:
     
     MyApp 
     
    When you call App.run() Textual puts the terminal in to a special state called application mode. When in application mode the terminal will no longer echo what you type. Textual will take over responding to user input (keyboard and mouse) and will update the visible portion of the terminal (i.e. the screen).
     
    If you hit Ctrl+C Textual will exit application mode and return you to the command prompt. Any content you had in the terminal prior to application mode will be restored.
     
    Tip
     
    A side effect of application mode is that you may no longer be able to select and copy text in the usual way. Terminals typically offer a way to bypass this limit with a key modifier. On iTerm you can select text if you hold the Option key. See the documentation for your terminal software for how to select text in application mode.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#events","title":"Events","text":"
    Textual has an event system you can use to respond to key presses, mouse actions, and internal state changes. Event handlers are methods prefixed with on_ followed by the name of the event.
     
    One such event is the mount event which is sent to an application after it enters application mode. You can respond to this event by defining a method called on_mount.

    You may have noticed we use the term \"send\" and \"sent\" in relation to event handler methods in preference to \"calling\". This is because Textual uses a message passing system where events are passed (or sent) between components. See events for details.
     
    Another such event is the key event which is sent when the user presses a key. The following example contains handlers for both those events:
     event01.py
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual import events\nclass EventApp(App):\nCOLORS = [\n\"white\",\n\"maroon\",\n\"red\",\n\"purple\",\n\"fuchsia\",\n\"olive\",\n\"yellow\",\n\"navy\",\n\"teal\",\n\"aqua\",\n]\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = \"darkblue\"\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nif event.key.isdecimal():\nself.screen.styles.background = self.COLORS[int(event.key)]\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = EventApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The on_mount handler sets the self.screen.styles.background attribute to \"darkblue\" which (as you can probably guess) turns the background blue. Since the mount event is sent immediately after entering application mode, you will see a blue screen when you run this code.
     
     EventApp 
     
    The key event handler (on_key) has an event parameter which will receive a Key instance. Every event has an associated event object which will be passed to the handler method if it is present in the method's parameter list.
     
    Note
     
    It is unusual (but not unprecedented) for a method's parameters to affect how it is called. Textual accomplishes this by inspecting the method prior to calling it.
     
    Some events contain additional information you can inspect in the handler. The Key event has a key attribute which is the name of the key that was pressed. The on_key method above uses this attribute to change the background color if any of the keys from 0 to 9 are pressed.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#async-events","title":"Async events","text":"
    Textual is powered by Python's asyncio framework which uses the async and await keywords.
     
    Textual knows to await your event handlers if they are coroutines (i.e. prefixed with the async keyword). Regular functions are generally fine unless you plan on integrating other async libraries (such as httpx for reading data from the internet).
     
    Tip
     
    For a friendly introduction to async programming in Python, see FastAPI's concurrent burgers article.
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#widgets","title":"Widgets","text":"
    Widgets are self-contained components responsible for generating the output for a portion of the screen. Widgets respond to events in much the same way as the App. Most apps that do anything interesting will contain at least one (and probably many) widgets which together form a User Interface.
     
    Widgets can be as simple as a piece of text, a button, or a fully-fledged component like a text editor or file browser (which may contain widgets of their own).
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#composing","title":"Composing","text":"
    To add widgets to your app implement a compose() method which should return an iterable of Widget instances. A list would work, but it is convenient to yield widgets, making the method a generator.
     
    The following example imports a builtin Welcome widget and yields it from App.compose().
     widgets01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Welcome\nclass WelcomeApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Welcome()\ndef on_button_pressed(self) -> None:\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WelcomeApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    When you run this code, Textual will mount the Welcome widget which contains Markdown content and a button:

    While composing is the preferred way of adding widgets when your app starts it is sometimes necessary to add new widget(s) in response to events. You can do this by calling mount() which will add a new widget to the UI.

    When you mount a widget, Textual will mount everything the widget composes. Textual guarantees that the mounting will be complete by the next message handler, but not immediately after the call to mount(). This may be a problem if you want to make any changes to the widget in the same message handler.
     
    Let's first illustrate the problem with an example. The following code will mount the Welcome widget in response to a key press. It will also attempt to modify the Button in the Welcome widget by changing its label from \"OK\" to \"YES!\".
     
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Welcome\nclass WelcomeApp(App):\ndef on_key(self) -> None:\nself.mount(Welcome())\nself.query_one(Button).label = \"YES!\" # (1)!\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WelcomeApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. See queries for more information on the query_one method.
      2.  
     
    If you run this example, you will find that Textual raises a NoMatches exception when you press a key. This is because the mount process has not yet completed when we attempt to change the button.
     
    To solve this we can optionally await the result of mount(), which requires we make the function async. This guarantees that by the following line, the Button has been mounted, and we can change its label.
     
    from textual.app import App\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Welcome\nclass WelcomeApp(App):\nasync def on_key(self) -> None:\nawait self.mount(Welcome())\nself.query_one(Button).label = \"YES!\"\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WelcomeApp()\napp.run()\n

    An app will run until you call App.exit() which will exit application mode and the run method will return. If this is the last line in your code you will return to the command prompt.
     
    The exit method will also accept an optional positional value to be returned by run(). The following example uses this to return the id (identifier) of a clicked button.

    You may have noticed that we subclassed App[str] rather than the usual App.

    The addition of [str] tells mypy that run() is expected to return a string. It may also return None if App.exit() is called without a return value, so the return type of run will be str | None. Replace the str in [str] with the type of the value you intend to call the exit method with.
     
    Note
     
    Type annotations are entirely optional (but recommended) with Textual.

    When you exit a Textual app with App.exit(), you can optionally specify a return code with the return_code parameter.
     
    What are return codes?
     
    Returns codes are a standard feature provided by your operating system. When any application exits it can return an integer to indicate if it was successful or not. A return code of 0 indicates success, any other value indicates that an error occurred. The exact meaning of a non-zero return code is application-dependant.
     
    When a Textual app exits normally, the return code will be 0. If there is an unhandled exception, Textual will set a return code of 1. You may want to set a different value for the return code if there is error condition that you want to differentiate from an unhandled exception.
     
    Here's an example of setting a return code for an error condition:
     
    if critical_error:\nself.exit(return_code=4, message=\"Critical error occurred\")\n
     
    The app's return code can be queried with app.return_code, which will be None if it hasn't been set, or an integer.
     
    Textual won't explicitly exit the process. To exit the app with a return code, you should call sys.exit. Here's how you might do that:
     
    if __name__ == \"__main__\"\napp = MyApp()\napp.run()\nimport sys\nsys.exit(app.return_code or 0)\n
    "},{"location":"guide/app/#css","title":"CSS","text":"
    Textual apps can reference CSS files which define how your app and widgets will look, while keeping your Python code free of display related code (which tends to be messy).
     
    Info
     
    Textual apps typically use the extension .tcss for external CSS files to differentiate them from browser (.css) files.
     
    The chapter on Textual CSS describes how to use CSS in detail. For now let's look at how your app references external CSS files.
     
    The following example enables loading of CSS by adding a CSS_PATH class variable:
     question02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Label\nclass QuestionApp(App[str]):\nCSS_PATH = \"question02.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Label(\"Do you love Textual?\", id=\"question\")\nyield Button(\"Yes\", id=\"yes\", variant=\"primary\")\nyield Button(\"No\", id=\"no\", variant=\"error\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\nself.exit(event.button.id)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = QuestionApp()\nreply = app.run()\nprint(reply)\n
     
    Note
     
    We also added an id to the Label, because we want to style it in the CSS.
     
    If the path is relative (as it is above) then it is taken as relative to where the app is defined. Hence this example references \"question01.tcss\" in the same directory as the Python code. Here is that CSS file:
     question02.tcss
    Screen {\nlayout: grid;\ngrid-size: 2;\ngrid-gutter: 2;\npadding: 2;\n}\n#question {\nwidth: 100%;\nheight: 100%;\ncolumn-span: 2;\ncontent-align: center bottom;\ntext-style: bold;\n}\nButton {\nwidth: 100%;\n}\n
     
    When \"question02.py\" runs it will load \"question02.tcss\" and update the app and widgets accordingly. Even though the code is almost identical to the previous sample, the app now looks quite different:
     
     QuestionApp Do\u00a0you\u00a0love\u00a0Textual? \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 \u00a0Yes\u00a0\u00a0No\u00a0 \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581

    While external CSS files are recommended for most applications, and enable some cool features like live editing, you can also specify the CSS directly within the Python code.
     
    To do this set a CSS class variable on the app to a string containing your CSS.
     
    Here's the question app with classvar CSS:
     question03.py

    "},{"location":"guide/app/#title-and-subtitle","title":"Title and subtitle","text":"
    Textual apps have a title attribute which is typically the name of your application, and an optional sub_title attribute which adds additional context (such as the file your are working on). By default, title will be set to the name of your App class, and sub_title is empty. You can change these defaults by defining TITLE and SUB_TITLE class variables. Here's an example of that:
     question_title01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button, Header, Label\nclass MyApp(App[str]):\nCSS_PATH = \"question02.tcss\"\nTITLE = \"A Question App\"\nSUB_TITLE = \"The most important question\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header()\nyield Label(\"Do you love Textual?\", id=\"question\")\nyield Button(\"Yes\", id=\"yes\", variant=\"primary\")\nyield Button(\"No\", id=\"no\", variant=\"error\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:\nself.exit(event.button.id)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MyApp()\nreply = app.run()\nprint(reply)\n

    You can also set the title attributes dynamically within a method of your app. The following example sets the title and subtitle in response to a key press:
     question_title02.py

    Textual apps have a built-in command palette, which gives users a quick way to access certain functionality within your app.

    Press Ctrl + \\ (ctrl and backslash) to invoke the command palette screen, which contains of a single input widget. Textual will suggest commands as you type in that input. Press Up or Down to select a command from the list, and Enter to invoke it.
     
    Commands are looked up via a fuzzy search, which means Textual will show commands that match the keys you type in the same order, but not necessarily at the start of the command. For instance the \"Toggle light/dark mode\" command will be shown if you type \"to\" (for toggle), but you could also type \"dm\" (to match dark mode). This scheme allows the user to quickly get to a particular command with a minimum of key-presses.

      7.  
     
    There are three methods you can override in a command provider: startup, search, and shutdown. All of these methods should be coroutines (async def). Only search is required, the other methods are optional. Let's explore those methods in detail.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#startup-method","title":"startup method","text":"
    The startup method is called when the command palette is opened. You can use this method as way of performing work that needs to be done prior to searching. In the example, we use this method to get the Python (.py) files in the current working directory.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#search-method","title":"search method","text":"
    The search method is responsible for finding results (or hits) that match the user's input. This method should yield Hit objects for any command that matches the query argument.
     
    Exactly how the matching is implemented is up to the author of the command provider, but we recommend using the builtin fuzzy matcher object, which you can get by calling matcher. This object has a match() method which compares the user's search term against the potential command and returns a score. A score of zero means no hit, and you can discard the potential command. A score of above zero indicates the confidence in the result, where 1 is an exact match, and anything lower indicates a less confident match.
     
    The Hit contains information about the score (used in ordering) and how the hit should be displayed, and an optional help string. It also contains a callback, which will be run if the user selects that command.
     
    In the example above, the callback is a lambda which calls the open_file method in the example app.
     
    Note
     
    Unlike most other places in Textual, errors in command provider will not exit the app. This is a deliberate design decision taken to prevent a single broken Provider class from making the command palette unusable. Errors in command providers will be logged to the console.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#shutdown-method","title":"Shutdown method","text":"
    The shutdown method is called when the command palette is closed. You can use this as a hook to gracefully close any objects you created in startup.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#screen-commands","title":"Screen commands","text":"
    You can also associate commands with a screen by adding a COMMANDS class var to your Screen class.
     
    Commands defined on a screen are only considered when that screen is active. You can use this to implement commands that are specific to a particular screen, that wouldn't be applicable everywhere in the app.
    "},{"location":"guide/command_palette/#disabling-the-command-palette","title":"Disabling the command palette","text":"
    The command palette is enabled by default. If you would prefer not to have the command palette, you can set ENABLE_COMMAND_PALETTE = False on your app class.

    class NoPaletteApp(App):\nENABLE_COMMAND_PALETTE = False\n

    Textual's design system consists of a number of predefined colors and guidelines for how to use them in your app.
     
    You don't have to follow these guidelines, but if you do, you will be able to mix builtin widgets with third party widgets and your own creations, without worrying about clashing colors.
     
    Information
     
    Textual's color system is based on Google's Material design system, modified to suit the terminal.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#designing-with-colors","title":"Designing with Colors","text":"
    Textual pre-defines a number of colors as CSS variables. For instance, the CSS variable $primary is set to #004578 (the blue used in headers). You can use $primary in place of the color in the background and color rules, or other any other rule that accepts a color.
     
    Here's an example of CSS that uses color variables:
     
    MyWidget {\nbackground: $primary;\ncolor: $text;\n}\n
     
    Using variables rather than explicit colors allows Textual to apply color themes. Textual supplies a default light and dark theme, but in the future many more themes will be available.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#base-colors","title":"Base Colors","text":"
    There are 12 base colors defined in the color scheme. The following table lists each of the color names (as used in CSS) and a description of where to use them.
     Color Description $primary The primary color, can be considered the branding color. Typically used for titles, and backgrounds for strong emphasis. $secondary An alternative branding color, used for similar purposes as $primary, where an app needs to differentiate something from the primary color. $primary-background The primary color applied to a background. On light mode this is the same as $primary. In dark mode this is a dimmed version of $primary. $secondary-background The secondary color applied to a background. On light mode this is the same as $secondary. In dark mode this is a dimmed version of $secondary. $background A color used for the background, where there is no content. $surface The color underneath text. $panel A color used to differentiate a part of the UI form the main content. Typically used for dialogs or sidebars. $boost A color with alpha that can be used to create layers on a background. $warning Indicates a warning. Text or background. $error Indicates an error.  Text or background. $success Used to indicate success.  Text or background. $accent Used sparingly to draw attention to a part of the UI (typically borders around focused widgets)."},{"location":"guide/design/#shades","title":"Shades","text":"
    For every color, Textual generates 3 dark shades and 3 light shades.
     
       
    • Add -lighten-1, -lighten-2, or -lighten-3 to the color's variable name to get lighter shades (3 is the lightest).
      •  
    • Add -darken-1, -darken-2, and -darken-3 to a color to get the darker shades (3 is the darkest).
      •  
     
    For example, $secondary-darken-1 is a slightly darkened $secondary, and $error-lighten-3 is a very light version of the $error color.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#dark-mode","title":"Dark mode","text":"
    There are two color themes in Textual, a light mode and dark mode. You can switch between them by toggling the dark attribute on the App class.
     
    In dark mode $background and $surface are off-black. Dark mode also set $primary-background and $secondary-background to dark versions of $primary and $secondary.
    "},{"location":"guide/design/#text-color","title":"Text color","text":"
    The design system defines three CSS variables you should use for text color.
     
       
    • $text sets the color of text in your app. Most text in your app should have this color.
      •  
    • $text-muted sets a slightly faded text color. Use this for text which has lower importance. For instance a sub-title or supplementary information.
      •  
    • $text-disabled sets faded out text which indicates it has been disabled. For instance, menu items which are not applicable and can't be clicked.
      •  
     
    You can set these colors via the color property. The design system uses auto colors for text, which means that Textual will pick either white or black (whichever has better contrast).
     
    Information
     
    These text colors all have some alpha applied, so that even $text isn't pure white or pure black. This is done because blending in a little of the background color produces text that is not so harsh on the eyes.

    The run sub-command runs Textual apps. If you supply a path to a Python file it will load and run the app.
     
    textual run my_app.py\n
     
    This is equivalent to running python my_app.py from the command prompt, but will allow you to set various switches which can help you debug, such as --dev which enable the Console.
     
    See the run subcommand's help for details:
     
    textual run --help\n
     
    You can also run Textual apps from a python import. The following command would import music.play and run a Textual app in that module:
     
    textual run music.play\n
     
    This assumes you have a Textual app instance called app in music.play. If your app has a different name, you can append it after a colon:
     
    textual run music.play:MusicPlayerApp\n

    One of the features of dev mode is live editing of CSS files: any changes to your CSS will be reflected in the terminal a few milliseconds later.
     
    This is a great feature for iterating on your app's look and feel. Open the CSS in your editor and have your app running in a terminal. Edits to your CSS will appear almost immediately after you save.
    "},{"location":"guide/devtools/#console","title":"Console","text":"
    When building a typical terminal application you are generally unable to use print when debugging (or log to the console). This is because anything you write to standard output will overwrite application content. Textual has a solution to this in the form of a debug console which restores print and adds a few additional features to help you debug.
     
    To use the console, open up two terminal emulators. Run the following in one of the terminals:
     
    textual console\n
     
    You should see the Textual devtools welcome message:
     
     textual\u00a0console \u258cTextual\u00a0Development\u00a0Console\u00a0v0.36.0 \u258cRun\u00a0a\u00a0Textual\u00a0app\u00a0with\u00a0textual\u00a0run\u00a0--dev\u00a0my_app.py\u00a0to\u00a0connect. \u258cPress\u00a0Ctrl+C\u00a0to\u00a0quit. 
     
    In the other console, run your application with textual run and the --dev switch:
     
    textual run --dev my_app.py\n
     
    Anything you print from your application will be displayed in the console window. Textual will also write log messages to this window which may be helpful when debugging your application.
    "},{"location":"guide/devtools/#increasing-verbosity","title":"Increasing verbosity","text":"
    Textual writes log messages to inform you about certain events, such as when the user presses a key or clicks on the terminal. To avoid swamping you with too much information, some events are marked as \"verbose\" and will be excluded from the logs. If you want to see these log messages, you can add the -v switch.
     
    textual console -v\n
    "},{"location":"guide/devtools/#decreasing-verbosity","title":"Decreasing verbosity","text":"
    Log messages are classififed in to groups, and the -x flag can be used to exclude all message from a group. The groups are: EVENT, DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, PRINT, SYSTEM, and LOGGING. The group a message belongs to is printed after its timestamp.
     
    Multiple groups may be excluded, for example to exclude everything except warning, errors, and print statements:
     
    textual console -x SYSTEM -x EVENT -x DEBUG -x INFO\n

    textual console --port 7342\n
     
    Then, use the command run with the same --port option:

    Use the log function to pretty-print data structures and anything that Rich can display.
     
    You can import the log function as follows:
     
    from textual import log\n
     
    Here's a few examples of writing to the console, with log:
     
    def on_mount(self) -> None:\nlog(\"Hello, World\")  # simple string\nlog(locals())  # Log local variables\nlog(children=self.children, pi=3.141592)  # key/values\nlog(self.tree)  # Rich renderables\n

    Textual has a logging handler which will write anything logged via the builtin logging library to the devtools. This may be useful if you have a third-party library that uses the logging module, and you want to see those logs with Textual logs.
     
    Note
     
    The logging library works with strings only, so you won't be able to log Rich renderables such as self.tree with the logging handler.
     
    Here's an example of configuring logging to use the TextualHandler.
     
    import logging\nfrom textual.app import App\nfrom textual.logging import TextualHandler\nlogging.basicConfig(\nlevel=\"NOTSET\",\nhandlers=[TextualHandler()],\n)\nclass LogApp(App):\n\"\"\"Using logging with Textual.\"\"\"\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nlogging.debug(\"Logged via TextualHandler\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\nLogApp().run()\n

    We've used event handler methods in many of the examples in this guide. This chapter explores events and messages (see below) in more detail.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#messages","title":"Messages","text":"
    Events are a particular kind of message sent by Textual in response to input and other state changes. Events are reserved for use by Textual, but you can also create custom messages for the purpose of coordinating between widgets in your app.
     
    More on that later, but for now keep in mind that events are also messages, and anything that is true of messages is true of events.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#message-queue","title":"Message Queue","text":"
    Every App and Widget object contains a message queue. You can think of a message queue as orders at a restaurant. The chef takes an order and makes the dish. Orders that arrive while the chef is cooking are placed in a line. When the chef has finished a dish they pick up the next order in the line.
     
    Textual processes messages in the same way. Messages are picked off a queue and processed (cooked) by a handler method. This guarantees messages and events are processed even if your code can not handle them right away.
     
    This processing of messages is done within an asyncio Task which is started when you mount the widget. The task monitors a queue for new messages and dispatches them to the appropriate handler when they arrive.
     
    Tip
     
    The FastAPI docs have an excellent introduction to Python async programming.
     
    By way of an example, let's consider what happens if you were to type \"Text\" in to a Input widget. When you hit the T key, Textual creates a key event and sends it to the widget's message queue. Ditto for E, X, and T.
     
    The widget's task will pick the first message from the queue (a key event for the T key) and call the on_key method with the event as the first argument. In other words it will call Input.on_key(event), which updates the display to show the new letter.

events.Key(key=\"T\")events.Key(key=\"e\")events.Key(key=\"x\")Message queueon_key(event)Event handlerevents.Key(key=\"t\") 
    When the on_key method returns, Textual will get the next event from the queue and repeat the process for the remaining keys. At some point the queue will be empty and the widget is said to be in an idle state.
     
    Note
     
    This example illustrates a point, but a typical app will be fast enough to have processed a key before the next event arrives. So it is unlikely you will have so many key events in the message queue.

    You may be familiar with Python's super function to call a function defined in a base class. You will not have to use this in event handlers as Textual will automatically call handler methods defined in a widget's base class(es).
     
    For instance, let's say we are building the classic game of Pong and we have written a Paddle widget which extends Static. When a Key event arrives, Textual calls Paddle.on_key (to respond to Left and Right keys), then Static.on_key, and finally Widget.on_key.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#preventing-default-behaviors","title":"Preventing default behaviors","text":"
    If you don't want this behavior you can call prevent_default() on the event object. This tells Textual not to call any more handlers on base classes.
     
    Warning
     
    You won't need prevent_default very often. Be sure to know what your base classes do before calling it, or you risk disabling some core features builtin to Textual.

    Messages have a bubble attribute. If this is set to True then events will be sent to a widget's parent after processing. Input events typically bubble so that a widget will have the opportunity to respond to input events if they aren't handled by their children.
     
    The following diagram shows an (abbreviated) DOM for a UI with a container and two buttons. With the \"No\" button focused, it will receive the key event first.

    The App class is always the root of the DOM, so there is nowhere for the event to bubble to.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#stopping-bubbling","title":"Stopping bubbling","text":"
    Event handlers may stop this bubble behavior by calling the stop() method on the event or message. You might want to do this if a widget has responded to the event in an authoritative way. For instance when a text input widget responds to a key event it stops the bubbling so that the key doesn't also invoke a key binding.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#custom-messages","title":"Custom messages","text":"
    You can create custom messages for your application that may be used in the same way as events (recall that events are simply messages reserved for use by Textual).
     
    The most common reason to do this is if you are building a custom widget and you need to inform a parent widget about a state change.
     
    Let's look at an example which defines a custom message. The following example creates color buttons which\u2014when clicked\u2014send a custom message.

    Note the custom message class which extends Message. The constructor stores a color object which handler methods will be able to inspect.
     
    The message class is defined within the widget class itself. This is not strictly required but recommended, for these reasons:
     
       
    • It reduces the amount of imports. If you import ColorButton, you have access to the message class via ColorButton.Selected.
      •  
    • It creates a namespace for the handler. So rather than on_selected, the handler name becomes on_color_button_selected. This makes it less likely that your chosen name will clash with another message.
      •  
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#sending-messages","title":"Sending messages","text":"
    To send a message call the post_message() method. This will place a message on the widget's message queue and run any message handlers.
     
    It is common for widgets to send messages to themselves, and allow them to bubble. This is so a base class has an opportunity to handle the message. We do this in the example above, which means a subclass could add a on_color_button_selected if it wanted to handle the message itself.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#preventing-messages","title":"Preventing messages","text":"
    You can temporarily disable posting of messages of a particular type by calling prevent, which returns a context manager (used with Python's with keyword). This is typically used when updating data in a child widget and you don't want to receive notifications that something has changed.
     
    The following example will play the terminal bell as you type. It does this by handling Input.Changed and calling bell(). There is a Clear button which sets the input's value to an empty string. This would normally also result in a Input.Changed event being sent (and the bell playing). Since we don't want the button to make a sound, the assignment to value is wrapped within a prevent context manager.
     
    Tip
     
    In reality, playing the terminal bell as you type would be very irritating -- we don't recommend it!

    Messages have a namespace if they are defined as a child class of a Widget. The namespace is the name of the parent class. For instance, the builtin Input class defines it's Changed message as follow:
     
    class Input(Widget):\n...\nclass Changed(Message):\n\"\"\"Posted when the value changes.\"\"\"\n...\n
     
    Because Changed is a child class of Input, its namespace will be \"input\" (and the handler name will be on_input_changed). This allows you to have similarly named events, without clashing event handler names.
     
    Tip
     
    If you are ever in doubt about what the handler name should be for a given event, print the handler_name class variable for your event class.
     
    Here's how you would check the handler name for the Input.Changed event:
     
    >>> from textual.widgets import Input\n>>> Input.Changed.handler_name\n'on_input_changed'\n
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#on-decorator","title":"On decorator","text":"
    In addition to the naming convention, message handlers may be created with the on decorator, which turns a method into a handler for the given message or event.
     
    For instance, the two methods declared below are equivalent:
     
    @on(Button.Pressed)\ndef handle_button_pressed(self):\n...\ndef on_button_pressed(self):\n...\n
     
    While this allows you to name your method handlers anything you want, the main advantage of the decorator approach over the naming convention is that you can specify which widget(s) you want to handle messages for.
     
    Let's first explore where this can be useful. In the following example we have three buttons, each of which does something different; one plays the bell, one toggles dark mode, and the other quits the app.
     on_decorator01.pyOutput on_decorator01.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\ndef on_button_pressed(self, event: Button.Pressed) -> None:  # (1)!\n\"\"\"Handle all button pressed events.\"\"\"\nif event.button.id == \"bell\":\nself.bell()\nelif event.button.has_class(\"toggle\", \"dark\"):\nself.dark = not self.dark\nelif event.button.id == \"quit\":\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The message handler is called when any button is pressed
      2.

    Note how the message handler has a chained if statement to match the action to the button. While this works just fine, it can be a little hard to follow when the number of buttons grows.
     
    The on decorator takes a CSS selector in addition to the event type which will be used to select which controls the handler should work with. We can use this to write a handler per control rather than manage them all in a single handler.
     
    The following example uses the decorator approach to write individual message handlers for each of the three buttons:
     on_decorator02.pyOutput on_decorator02.py
    from textual import on\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Button\nclass OnDecoratorApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"on_decorator.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\n\"\"\"Three buttons.\"\"\"\nyield Button(\"Bell\", id=\"bell\")\nyield Button(\"Toggle dark\", classes=\"toggle dark\")\nyield Button(\"Quit\", id=\"quit\")\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#bell\")  # (1)!\ndef play_bell(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the bell button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.bell()\n@on(Button.Pressed, \".toggle.dark\")  # (2)!\ndef toggle_dark(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the 'toggle dark' button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.dark = not self.dark\n@on(Button.Pressed, \"#quit\")  # (3)!\ndef quit(self):\n\"\"\"Called when the quit button is pressed.\"\"\"\nself.exit()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = OnDecoratorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Matches the button with an id of \"bell\" (note the # to match the id)
      2.  
    2. Matches the button with class names \"toggle\" and \"dark\"
      3.  
    3. Matches the button with an id of \"quit\"
      4.

    While there are a few more lines of code, it is clearer what will happen when you click any given button.
     
    Note that the decorator requires that the message class has a control attribute which should be the widget associated with the message. Messages from builtin controls will have this attribute, but you may need to add control to any custom messages you write.
     
    Note
     
    If multiple decorated handlers match the message, then they will all be called in the order they are defined.
     
    The naming convention handler will be called after any decorated handlers.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#applying-css-selectors-to-arbitrary-attributes","title":"Applying CSS selectors to arbitrary attributes","text":"
    The on decorator also accepts selectors as keyword arguments that may be used to match other attributes in a Message, provided those attributes are in Message.ALLOW_SELECTOR_MATCH.
     
    The snippet below shows how to match the message TabbedContent.TabActivated only when the tab with id home was activated:
     
    @on(TabbedContent.TabActivated, tab=\"#home\")\ndef home_tab(self) -> None:\nself.log(\"Switched back to home tab.\")\n...\n
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#handler-arguments","title":"Handler arguments","text":"
    Message handler methods can be written with or without a positional argument. If you add a positional argument, Textual will call the handler with the event object. The following handler (taken from custom01.py above) contains a message parameter. The body of the code makes use of the message to set a preset color.
     
        def on_color_button_selected(self, message: ColorButton.Selected) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.animate(\"background\", message.color, duration=0.5)\n
     
    A similar handler can be written using the decorator on:
     
        @on(ColorButton.Selected)\ndef animate_background_color(self, message: ColorButton.Selected) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.animate(\"background\", message.color, duration=0.5)\n
     
    If the body of your handler doesn't require any information in the message you can omit it from the method signature. If we just want to play a bell noise when the button is clicked, we could write our handler like this:
     
        def on_color_button_selected(self) -> None:\nself.app.bell()\n
     
    This pattern is a convenience that saves writing out a parameter that may not be used.
    "},{"location":"guide/events/#async-handlers","title":"Async handlers","text":"
    Message handlers may be coroutines. If you prefix your handlers with the async keyword, Textual will await them. This lets your handler use the await keyword for asynchronous APIs.
     
    If your event handlers are coroutines it will allow multiple events to be processed concurrently, but bear in mind an individual widget (or app) will not be able to pick up a new message from its message queue until the handler has returned. This is rarely a problem in practice; as long as handlers return within a few milliseconds the UI will remain responsive. But slow handlers might make your app hard to use.
     
    Info
     
    To re-use the chef analogy, if an order comes in for beef wellington (which takes a while to cook), orders may start to pile up and customers may have to wait for their meal. The solution would be to have another chef work on the wellington while the first chef picks up new orders.
     
    Network access is a common cause of slow handlers. If you try to retrieve a file from the internet, the message handler may take anything up to a few seconds to return, which would prevent the widget or app from updating during that time. The solution is to launch a new asyncio task to do the network task in the background.

    The most fundamental way to receive input is via Key events which are sent to your app when the user presses a key. Let's write an app to show key events as you type.
     key01.pyOutput key01.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import RichLog\nclass InputApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display key events.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield RichLog()\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nself.query_one(RichLog).write(event)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = InputApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     InputApp Key(key='T',\u00a0character='T',\u00a0name='upper_t',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='e',\u00a0character='e',\u00a0name='e',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='x',\u00a0character='x',\u00a0name='x',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='t',\u00a0character='t',\u00a0name='t',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='u',\u00a0character='u',\u00a0name='u',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='a',\u00a0character='a',\u00a0name='a',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key(key='l',\u00a0character='l',\u00a0name='l',\u00a0is_printable=True) Key( key='exclamation_mark', character='!', name='exclamation_mark', is_printable=True ) 
     
    When you press a key, the app will receive the event and write it to a RichLog widget. Try pressing a few keys to see what happens.
     
    Tip
     
    For a more feature rich version of this example, run textual keys from the command line.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#key-event","title":"Key Event","text":"
    The key event contains the following attributes which your app can use to know how to respond.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#key","title":"key","text":"
    The key attribute is a string which identifies the key that was pressed. The value of key will be a single character for letters and numbers, or a longer identifier for other keys.
     
    Some keys may be combined with the Shift key. In the case of letters, this will result in a capital letter as you might expect. For non-printable keys, the key attribute will be prefixed with shift+. For example, Shift+Home will produce an event with key=\"shift+home\".
     
    Many keys can also be combined with Ctrl which will prefix the key with ctrl+. For instance, Ctrl+P will produce an event with key=\"ctrl+p\".
     
    Warning
     
    Not all keys combinations are supported in terminals and some keys may be intercepted by your OS. If in doubt, run textual keys from the command line.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#character","title":"character","text":"
    If the key has an associated printable character, then character will contain a string with a single Unicode character. If there is no printable character for the key (such as for function keys) then character will be None.
     
    For example the P key will produce character=\"p\" but F2 will produce character=None.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#name","title":"name","text":"
    The name attribute is similar to key but, unlike key, is guaranteed to be valid within a Python function name. Textual derives name from the key attribute by lower casing it and replacing + with _. Upper case letters are prefixed with upper_ to distinguish them from lower case names.
     
    For example, Ctrl+P produces name=\"ctrl_p\" and Shift+P produces name=\"upper_p\".
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#is_printable","title":"is_printable","text":"
    The is_printable attribute is a boolean which indicates if the key would typically result in something that could be used in an input widget. If is_printable is False then the key is a control code or function key that you wouldn't expect to produce anything in an input.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#aliases","title":"aliases","text":"
    Some keys or combinations of keys can produce the same event. For instance, the Tab key is indistinguishable from Ctrl+I in the terminal. For such keys, Textual events will contain a list of the possible keys that may have produced this event. In the case of Tab, the aliases attribute will contain [\"tab\", \"ctrl+i\"]
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#key-methods","title":"Key methods","text":"
    Textual offers a convenient way of handling specific keys. If you create a method beginning with key_ followed by the key name (the event's name attribute), then that method will be called in response to the key press.
     
    Let's add a key method to the example code.
     key02.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import RichLog\nclass InputApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display key events.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield RichLog()\ndef on_key(self, event: events.Key) -> None:\nself.query_one(RichLog).write(event)\ndef key_space(self) -> None:\nself.bell()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = InputApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Note the addition of a key_space method which is called in response to the space key, and plays the terminal bell noise.
     
    Note
     
    Consider key methods to be a convenience for experimenting with Textual features. In nearly all cases, key bindings and actions are preferable.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#input-focus","title":"Input focus","text":"
    Only a single widget may receive key events at a time. The widget which is actively receiving key events is said to have input focus.
     
    The following example shows how focus works in practice.

    The app splits the screen in to quarters, with a RichLog widget in each quarter. If you click any of the text logs, you should see that it is highlighted to show that the widget has focus. Key events will be sent to the focused widget only.
     
    Tip
     
    the :focus CSS pseudo-selector can be used to apply a style to the focused widget.
     
    You can move focus by pressing the Tab key to focus the next widget. Pressing Shift+Tab moves the focus in the opposite direction.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#controlling-focus","title":"Controlling focus","text":"
    Textual will handle keyboard focus automatically, but you can tell Textual to focus a widget by calling the widget's focus() method.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#focus-events","title":"Focus events","text":"
    When a widget receives focus, it is sent a Focus event. When a widget loses focus it is sent a Blur event.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#bindings","title":"Bindings","text":"
    Keys may be associated with actions for a given widget. This association is known as a key binding.
     
    To create bindings, add a BINDINGS class variable to your app or widget. This should be a list of tuples of three strings. The first value is the key, the second is the action, the third value is a short human readable description.
     
    The following example binds the keys R, G, and B to an action which adds a bar widget to the screen.

    Note how the footer displays bindings and makes them clickable.
     
    Tip
     
    Multiple keys can be bound to a single action by comma-separating them. For example, (\"r,t\", \"add_bar('red')\", \"Add Red\") means both R and T are bound to add_bar('red').
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#binding-class","title":"Binding class","text":"
    The tuple of three strings may be enough for simple bindings, but you can also replace the tuple with a Binding instance which exposes a few more options.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#priority-bindings","title":"Priority bindings","text":"
    Individual bindings may be marked as a priority, which means they will be checked prior to the bindings of the focused widget. This feature is often used to create hot-keys on the app or screen. Such bindings can not be disabled by binding the same key on a widget.
     
    You can create priority key bindings by setting priority=True on the Binding object. Textual uses this feature to add a default binding for Ctrl+C so there is always a way to exit the app. Here's the bindings from the App base class. Note the first binding is set as a priority:
     
        BINDINGS = [\nBinding(\"ctrl+c\", \"quit\", \"Quit\", show=False, priority=True),\nBinding(\"tab\", \"focus_next\", \"Focus Next\", show=False),\nBinding(\"shift+tab\", \"focus_previous\", \"Focus Previous\", show=False),\n]\n
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#show-bindings","title":"Show bindings","text":"
    The footer widget can inspect bindings to display available keys. If you don't want a binding to display in the footer you can set show=False. The default bindings on App do this so that the standard Ctrl+C, Tab and Shift+Tab bindings don't typically appear in the footer.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#mouse-input","title":"Mouse Input","text":"
    Textual will send events in response to mouse movement and mouse clicks. These events contain the coordinates of the mouse cursor relative to the terminal or widget.
     
    Information
     
    The trackpad (and possibly other pointer devices) are treated the same as the mouse in terminals.
     
    Terminal coordinates are given by a pair values named x and y. The X coordinate is an offset in characters, extending from the left to the right of the screen. The Y coordinate is an offset in lines, extending from the top of the screen to the bottom.
     
    Coordinates may be relative to the screen, so (0, 0) would be the top left of the screen. Coordinates may also be relative to a widget, where (0, 0) would be the top left of the widget itself.

    When you move the mouse cursor over a widget it will receive MouseMove events which contain the coordinate of the mouse and information about what modifier keys (Ctrl, Shift etc) are held down.
     
    The following example shows mouse movements being used to attach a widget to the mouse cursor.
     mouse01.pymouse01.tcss mouse01.py
    from textual import events\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Container\nfrom textual.widgets import RichLog, Static\nclass PlayArea(Container):\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.capture_mouse()\ndef on_mouse_move(self, event: events.MouseMove) -> None:\nself.screen.query_one(RichLog).write(event)\nself.query_one(Ball).offset = event.offset - (8, 2)\nclass Ball(Static):\npass\nclass MouseApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"mouse01.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield RichLog()\nyield PlayArea(Ball(\"Textual\"))\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = MouseApp()\napp.run()\n
     mouse01.tcss
    Screen {\nlayers: log ball;\n}\nTextLog {\nlayer: log;\n}\nPlayArea {\nopacity: 0%;\nlayer: ball;\n}\nBall {\nlayer: ball;\nwidth: auto;\nheight: 1;\nbackground: $secondary;\nborder: tall $secondary;\ncolor: $background;\nbox-sizing: content-box;\ntext-style: bold;\npadding: 0 4;\n}\n
     
    If you run mouse01.py you should find that it logs the mouse move event, and keeps a widget pinned directly under the cursor.
     
    The on_mouse_move handler sets the offset style of the ball (a rectangular one) to match the mouse coordinates.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#mouse-capture","title":"Mouse capture","text":"
    In the mouse01.py example there was a call to capture_mouse() in the mount handler. Textual will send mouse move events to the widget directly under the cursor. You can tell Textual to send all mouse events to a widget regardless of the position of the mouse cursor by calling capture_mouse.
     
    Call release_mouse to restore the default behavior.
     
    Warning
     
    If you capture the mouse, be aware you might get negative mouse coordinates if the cursor is to the left of the widget.
     
    Textual will send a MouseCapture event when the mouse is captured, and a MouseRelease event when it is released.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#enter-and-leave-events","title":"Enter and Leave events","text":"
    Textual will send a Enter event to a widget when the mouse cursor first moves over it, and a Leave event when the cursor moves off a widget.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#click-events","title":"Click events","text":"
    There are three events associated with clicking a button on your mouse. When the button is initially pressed, Textual sends a MouseDown event, followed by MouseUp when the button is released. Textual then sends a final Click event.
     
    If you want your app to respond to a mouse click you should prefer the Click event (and not MouseDown or MouseUp). This is because a future version of Textual may support other pointing devices which don't have up and down states.
    "},{"location":"guide/input/#scroll-events","title":"Scroll events","text":"
    Most mice have a scroll wheel which you can use to scroll the window underneath the cursor. Scrollable containers in Textual will handle these automatically, but you can handle MouseScrollDown and MouseScrollUp if you want build your own scrolling functionality.
     
    Information
     
    Terminal emulators will typically convert trackpad gestures in to scroll events.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/","title":"Layout","text":"
    In Textual, the layout defines how widgets will be arranged (or laid out) inside a container. Textual supports a number of layouts which can be set either via a widget's styles object or via CSS. Layouts can be used for both high-level positioning of widgets on screen, and for positioning of nested widgets.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#vertical","title":"Vertical","text":"
    The vertical layout arranges child widgets vertically, from top to bottom.

    Screen {\nlayout: vertical;\n}\n.box {\nheight: 1fr;\nborder: solid green;\n}\n
     
    Notice that the first widget yielded from the compose method appears at the top of the display, the second widget appears below it, and so on. Inside vertical_layout.tcss, we've assigned layout: vertical to Screen. Screen is the parent container of the widgets yielded from the App.compose method, and can be thought of as the terminal window itself.
     
    Note
     
    The layout: vertical CSS isn't strictly necessary in this case, since Screens use a vertical layout by default.
     
    We've assigned each child .box a height of 1fr, which ensures they're each allocated an equal portion of the available height.
     
    You might also have noticed that the child widgets are the same width as the screen, despite nothing in our CSS file suggesting this. This is because widgets expand to the width of their parent container (in this case, the Screen).
     
    Just like other styles, layout can be adjusted at runtime by modifying the styles of a Widget instance:
     
    widget.styles.layout = \"vertical\"\n
     
    Using fr units guarantees that the children fill the available height of the parent. However, if the total height of the children exceeds the available space, then Textual will automatically add a scrollbar to the parent Screen.
     
    Note
     
    A scrollbar is added automatically because Screen contains the declaration overflow-y: auto;.
     
    For example, if we swap out height: 1fr; for height: 10; in the example above, the child widgets become a fixed height of 10, and a scrollbar appears (assuming our terminal window is sufficiently small):

    We've changed the layout to horizontal inside our CSS file. As a result, the widgets are now arranged from left to right instead of top to bottom.
     
    We also adjusted the height of the child .box widgets to 100%. As mentioned earlier, widgets expand to fill the width of their parent container. They do not, however, expand to fill the container's height. Thus, we need explicitly assign height: 100% to achieve this.
     
    A consequence of this \"horizontal growth\" behaviour is that if we remove the width restriction from the above example (by deleting width: 1fr;), each child widget will grow to fit the width of the screen, and only the first widget will be visible. The other two widgets in our layout are offscreen, to the right-hand side of the screen. In the case of horizontal layout, Textual will not automatically add a scrollbar.
     
    To enable horizontal scrolling, we can use the overflow-x: auto; declaration:

    The example below shows how we can combine these containers to create a simple 2x2 grid. Inside a single Horizontal container, we place two Vertical containers. In other words, we have a single row containing two columns.

    You may be tempted to use many levels of nested utility containers in order to build advanced, grid-like layouts. However, Textual comes with a more powerful mechanism for achieving this known as grid layout, which we'll discuss below.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#composing-with-context-managers","title":"Composing with context managers","text":"
    In the previous section, we've shown how you add children to a container (such as Horizontal and Vertical) using positional arguments. It's fine to do it this way, but Textual offers a simplified syntax using context managers, which is generally easier to write and edit.
     
    When composing a widget, you can introduce a container using Python's with statement. Any widgets yielded within that block are added as a child of the container.
     
    Let's update the utility containers example to use the context manager approach.

    Note how the end result is the same, but the code with context managers is a little easier to read. It is up to you which method you want to use, and you can mix context managers with positional arguments if you like!

    Note
     
    Grid layouts in Textual have little in common with browser-based CSS Grid.
     
    To get started with grid layout, define the number of columns and rows in your grid with the grid-size CSS property and set layout: grid. Widgets are inserted into the \"cells\" of the grid from left-to-right and top-to-bottom order.
     
    The following example creates a 3 x 2 grid and adds six widgets to it

    If we were to yield a seventh widget from our compose method, it would not be visible as the grid does not contain enough cells to accommodate it. We can tell Textual to add new rows on demand to fit the number of widgets, by omitting the number of rows from grid-size.

    Since we specified that our grid has three columns (grid-size: 3), and we've yielded seven widgets in total, a third row has been created to accommodate the seventh widget.
     
    Now that we know how to define a simple uniform grid, let's look at how we can customize it to create more complex layouts.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#row-and-column-sizes","title":"Row and column sizes","text":"
    You can adjust the width of columns and the height of rows in your grid using the grid-columns and grid-rows properties. These properties can take multiple values, letting you specify dimensions on a column-by-column or row-by-row basis.
     
    Continuing on from our earlier 3x2 example grid, let's adjust the width of the columns using grid-columns. We'll make the first column take up half of the screen width, with the other two columns sharing the remaining space equally.

    Since our grid-size is 3 (meaning it has three columns), our grid-columns declaration has three space-separated values. Each of these values sets the width of a column. The first value refers to the left-most column, the second value refers to the next column, and so on. In the example above, we've given the left-most column a width of 2fr and the other columns widths of 1fr. As a result, the first column is allocated twice the width of the other columns.
     
    Similarly, we can adjust the height of a row using grid-rows. In the following example, we use % units to adjust the first row of our grid to 25% height, and the second row to 75% height (while retaining the grid-columns change from above).

    If you don't specify enough values in a grid-columns or grid-rows declaration, the values you have provided will be \"repeated\". For example, if your grid has four columns (i.e. grid-size: 4;), then grid-columns: 2 4; is equivalent to grid-columns: 2 4 2 4;. If it instead had three columns, then grid-columns: 2 4; would be equivalent to grid-columns: 2 4 2;.

    Cells may span multiple rows or columns, to create more interesting grid arrangements.
     
    To make a single cell span multiple rows or columns in the grid, we need to be able to select it using CSS. To do this, we'll add an ID to the widget inside our compose method so we can set the row-span and column-span properties using CSS.
     
    Let's add an ID of #two to the second widget yielded from compose, and give it a column-span of 2 to make that widget span two columns. We'll also add a slight tint using tint: magenta 40%; to draw attention to it.

    Notice that the widget expands to fill columns to the right of its original position. Since #two now spans two cells instead of one, all widgets that follow it are shifted along one cell in the grid to accommodate. As a result, the final widget wraps on to a new row at the bottom of the grid.
     
    Note
     
    In the example above, setting the column-span of #two to be 3 (instead of 2) would have the same effect, since there are only 2 columns available (including #two's original column).
     
    We can similarly adjust the row-span of a cell to have it span multiple rows. This can be used in conjunction with column-span, meaning one cell may span multiple rows and columns. The example below shows row-span in action. We again target widget #two in our CSS, and add a row-span: 2; declaration to it.

    Widget #two now spans two columns and two rows, covering a total of four cells. Notice how the other cells are moved to accommodate this change. The widget that previously occupied a single cell now occupies four cells, thus displacing three cells to a new row.
    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#gutter","title":"Gutter","text":"
    The spacing between cells in the grid can be adjusted using the grid-gutter CSS property. By default, cells have no gutter, meaning their edges touch each other. Gutter is applied across every cell in the grid, so grid-gutter must be used on a widget with layout: grid (not on a child/cell widget).
     
    To illustrate gutter let's set our Screen background color to lightgreen, and the background color of the widgets we yield to darkmagenta. Now if we add grid-gutter: 1; to our grid, one cell of spacing appears between the cells and reveals the light green background of the Screen.

    Notice that gutter only applies between the cells in a grid, pushing them away from each other. It doesn't add any spacing between cells and the edges of the parent container.
     
    Tip
     
    You can also supply two values to the grid-gutter property to set vertical and horizontal gutters respectively. Since terminal cells are typically two times taller than they are wide, it's common to set the horizontal gutter equal to double the vertical gutter (e.g. grid-gutter: 1 2;) in order to achieve visually consistent spacing around grid cells.

    Widgets may be docked. Docking a widget removes it from the layout and fixes its position, aligned to either the top, right, bottom, or left edges of a container. Docked widgets will not scroll out of view, making them ideal for sticky headers, footers, and sidebars.

    To dock a widget to an edge, add a dock: <EDGE>; declaration to it, where <EDGE> is one of top, right, bottom, or left. For example, a sidebar similar to that shown in the diagram above can be achieved using dock: left;. The code below shows a simple sidebar implementation.

    If we run the app above and scroll down, the body text will scroll but the sidebar does not (note the position of the scrollbar in the output shown above).
     
    Docking multiple widgets to the same edge will result in overlap. The first widget yielded from compose will appear below widgets yielded after it. Let's dock a second sidebar, #another-sidebar, to the left of the screen. This new sidebar is double the width of the one previous one, and has a deeppink background.

    Notice that the original sidebar (#sidebar) appears on top of the newly docked widget. This is because #sidebar was yielded after #another-sidebar inside the compose method.
     
    Of course, we can also dock widgets to multiple edges within the same container. The built-in Header widget contains some internal CSS which docks it to the top. We can yield it inside compose, and without any additional CSS, we get a header fixed to the top of the screen.

    "},{"location":"guide/layout/#layers","title":"Layers","text":"
    Textual has a concept of layers which gives you finely grained control over the order widgets are placed.
     
    When drawing widgets, Textual will first draw on lower layers, working its way up to higher layers. As such, widgets on higher layers will be drawn on top of those on lower layers.
     
    Layer names are defined with a layers style on a container (parent) widget. Descendants of this widget can then be assigned to one of these layers using a layer style.
     
    The layers style takes a space-separated list of layer names. The leftmost name is the lowest layer, and the rightmost is the highest layer. Therefore, if you assign a descendant to the rightmost layer name, it'll be drawn on the top layer and will be visible above all other descendants.
     
    An example layers declaration looks like: layers: one two three;. To add a widget to the topmost layer in this case, you'd add a declaration of layer: three; to it.
     
    In the example below, #box1 is yielded before #box2. Given our earlier discussion on yield order, you'd expect #box2 to appear on top. However, in this case, both #box1 and #box2 are assigned to layers which define the reverse order, so #box1 is on top of #box2

    Widgets have a relative offset which is added to the widget's location, after its location has been determined via its parent's layout. This means that if a widget hasn't had its offset modified using CSS or Python code, it will have an offset of (0, 0).

    • The first value defines the x (horizontal) offset. Positive values will shift the widget to the right. Negative values will shift the widget to the left.
      •  
    • The second value defines the y (vertical) offset. Positive values will shift the widget down. Negative values will shift the widget up.

    "},{"location":"guide/queries/","title":"DOM Queries","text":"
    In the previous chapter we introduced the DOM which is how Textual apps keep track of widgets. We saw how you can apply styles to the DOM with CSS selectors.
     
    Selectors are a very useful idea and can do more that apply styles. We can also find widgets in Python code with selectors, and make updates to widgets in a simple expressive way. Let's look at how!
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#query-one","title":"Query one","text":"
    The query_one method gets a single widget in an app or other widget. If you call it with a selector it will return the first matching widget.
     
    Let's say we have a widget with an ID of send and we want to get a reference to it in our app. We could do this with the following:
     
    send_button = self.query_one(\"#send\")\n
     
    If there is no widget with an ID of send, Textual will raise a NoMatches exception. Otherwise it will return the matched widget.
     
    You can also add a second parameter for the expected type.
     
    send_button = self.query_one(\"#send\", Button)\n
     
    If the matched widget is not a button (i.e. if isinstance(widget, Button) equals False), Textual will raise a WrongType exception.
     
    Tip
     
    The second parameter allows type-checkers like MyPy to know the exact return type. Without it, MyPy would only know the result of query_one is a Widget (the base class).
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#making-queries","title":"Making queries","text":"
    Apps and widgets have a query method which finds (or queries) widgets. This method returns a DOMQuery object which is a list-like container of widgets.
     
    If you call query with no arguments, you will get back a DOMQuery containing all widgets. This method is recursive, meaning it will also return child widgets (as many levels as required).
     
    Here's how you might iterate over all the widgets in your app:
     
    for widget in self.query():\nprint(widget)\n
     
    Called on the app, this will retrieve all widgets in the app. If you call the same method on a widget, it will return the children of that widget.
     
    Note
     
    All the query and related methods work on both App and Widget sub-classes.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#query-selectors","title":"Query selectors","text":"
    You can call query with a CSS selector. Let's look a few examples:
     
    If we want to find all the button widgets, we could do something like the following:
     
    for button in self.query(\"Button\"):\nprint(button)\n
     
    Any selector that works in CSS will work with the query method. For instance, if we want to find all the disabled buttons in a Dialog widget, we could do this:
     
    for button in self.query(\"Dialog Button.disabled\"):\nprint(button)\n
     
    Info
     
    The selector Dialog Button.disabled says find all the Button with a CSS class of disabled that are a child of a Dialog widget.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#results","title":"Results","text":"
    Query objects have a results method which is an alternative way of iterating over widgets. If you supply a type (i.e. a Widget class) then this method will generate only objects of that type.
     
    The following example queries for widgets with the disabled CSS class and iterates over just the Button objects.
     
    for button in self.query(\".disabled\").results(Button):\nprint(button)\n
     
    Tip
     
    This method allows type-checkers like MyPy to know the exact type of the object in the loop. Without it, MyPy would only know that button is a Widget (the base class).
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#query-objects","title":"Query objects","text":"
    We've seen that the query method returns a DOMQuery object you can iterate over in a for loop. Query objects behave like Python lists and support all of the same operations (such as query[0], len(query) ,reverse(query) etc). They also have a number of other methods to simplify retrieving and modifying widgets.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#first-and-last","title":"First and last","text":"
    The first and last methods return the first or last matching widget from the selector, respectively.
     
    Here's how we might find the last button in an app:
     
    last_button = self.query(\"Button\").last()\n
     
    If there are no buttons, Textual will raise a NoMatches exception. Otherwise it will return a button widget.
     
    Both first() and last() accept an expect_type argument that should be the class of the widget you are expecting. Let's say we want to get the last widget with class .disabled, and we want to check it really is a button. We could do this:
     
    disabled_button = self.query(\".disabled\").last(Button)\n
     
    The query selects all widgets with a disabled CSS class. The last method gets the last disabled widget and checks it is a Button and not any other kind of widget.
     
    If the last widget is not a button, Textual will raise a WrongType exception.
     
    Tip
     
    Specifying the expected type allows type-checkers like MyPy to know the exact return type.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#filter","title":"Filter","text":"
    Query objects have a filter method which further refines a query. This method will return a new query object with widgets that match both the original query and the new selector

    # Get all the Buttons\nbuttons_query = self.query(\"Button\")\n# Buttons with 'disabled' CSS class\ndisabled_buttons = buttons_query.filter(\".disabled\")\n
     
    Iterating over disabled_buttons will give us all the disabled buttons.
    "},{"location":"guide/queries/#exclude","title":"Exclude","text":"
    Query objects have an exclude method which is the logical opposite of filter. The exclude method removes any widgets from the query object which match a selector.

    # Get all the Buttons\nbuttons_query = self.query(\"Button\")\n# Remove all the Buttons with the 'disabled' CSS class\nenabled_buttons = buttons_query.exclude(\".disabled\")\n

    Once you have a query object, you can loop over it to call methods on the matched widgets. Query objects also support a number of methods which make an update to every matched widget without an explicit loop.
     
    For instance, let's say we want to disable all buttons in an app. We could do this by calling add_class() on a query object.
     
    self.query(\"Button\").add_class(\"disabled\")\n
     
    This single line is equivalent to the following:

    "},{"location":"guide/reactivity/#reactive-attributes","title":"Reactive attributes","text":"
    Textual provides an alternative way of adding attributes to your widget or App, which doesn't require adding them to your class constructor (__init__). To create these attributes import reactive from textual.reactive, and assign them in the class scope.
     
    The following code illustrates how to create reactive attributes:
     
    from textual.reactive import reactive\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass Reactive(Widget):\nname = reactive(\"Paul\")  # (1)!\ncount = reactive(0) # (2)!\nis_cool = reactive(True)  # (3)!\n
     
       
    1. Create a string attribute with a default of \"Paul\"
      2.  
    2. Creates an integer attribute with a default of 0.
      3.  
    3. Creates a boolean attribute with a default of True.
      4.  
     
    The reactive constructor accepts a default value as the first positional argument.
     
    Information
     
    Textual uses Python's descriptor protocol to create reactive attributes, which is the same protocol used by the builtin property decorator.
     
    You can get and set these attributes in the same way as if you had assigned them in an __init__ method. For instance self.name = \"Jessica\", self.count += 1, or print(self.is_cool).

    There is no need to specify a type hint if a reactive attribute has a default value, as type checkers will assume the attribute is the same type as the default.
     
    You may want to add explicit type hints if the attribute type is a superset of the default type. For instance if you want to make an attribute optional. Here's how you would create a reactive string attribute which may be None:

    If you don't want an attribute to prompt a refresh or layout but you still want other reactive superpowers, you can use var to create an attribute. You can import var from textual.reactive.

This method should accept the incoming value as a positional argument, and return the value to set (which may be the same or a different value).
     
    A common use for this is to restrict numbers to a given range. The following example keeps a count. There is a button to increase the count, and a button to decrease it. The validation ensures that the count will never go above 10 or below zero.

    Note the compute_color method which combines the color components into a Color object. It will be recalculated when any of the red , green, or blue attributes are modified.
     
    When the result of compute_color changes, Textual will also call watch_color since color still has the watch method superpower.
     
    Note
     
    Textual will first attempt to call the compute method for a reactive attribute, followed by the validate method, and finally the watch method.
     
    Note
     
    It is best to avoid doing anything slow or CPU-intensive in a compute method. Textual calls compute methods on an object when any reactive attribute changes.

    Screens are containers for widgets that occupy the dimensions of your terminal. There can be many screens in a given app, but only one screen is active at a time.
     
    Textual requires that there be at least one screen object and will create one implicitly in the App class. If you don't change the screen, any widgets you mount or compose will be added to this default screen.

    You can create a screen by extending the Screen class which you can import from textual.screen. The screen may be styled in the same way as other widgets, with the exception that you can't modify the screen's dimensions (as these will always be the size of your terminal).
     
    Let's look at a simple example of writing a screen class to simulate Window's blue screen of death.

    The BSOD class above defines a screen with a key binding and compose method. These should be familiar as they work in the same way as apps.
     
    The app class has a new SCREENS class variable. Textual uses this class variable to associate a name with screen object (the name is used to reference screens in the screen API). Also in the app is a key binding associated with the action \"push_screen('bsod')\". The screen class has a similar action \"pop_screen\" bound to the Esc key. We will cover these actions below.
    "},{"location":"guide/screens/#named-screens","title":"Named screens","text":"
    You can associate a screen with a name by defining a SCREENS class variable in your app, which should be a dict that maps names on to Screen objects. The name of the screen may be used interchangeably with screen objects in much of the screen API.
     
    You can also install new named screens dynamically with the install_screen method. The following example installs the BSOD screen in a mount handler rather than from the SCREENS variable.

    Screens defined in SCREENS or added with install_screen are installed screens. Textual will keep these screens in memory for the lifetime of your app.

    "},{"location":"guide/screens/#screen-stack","title":"Screen stack","text":"
    Textual apps keep a stack of screens. You can think of this screen stack as a stack of paper, where only the very top sheet is visible. If you remove the top sheet, the paper underneath becomes visible. Screens work in a similar way.
     
    Note
     
    You can also make parts of the top screen translucent, so that deeper screens show through. See Screen opacity.
     
    The active screen (top of the stack) will render the screen and receive input events. The following API methods on the App class can manipulate this stack, and let you decide which screen the user can interact with.

    Note the request_quit action in the app which pushes a new instance of QuitScreen. This makes the quit screen active. If you click Cancel, the quit screen calls pop_screen to return the default screen. This also removes and deletes the QuitScreen object.
     
    There are two flaws with this modal screen, which we can fix in the same way.
     
    The first flaw is that the app adds a new quit screen every time you press Q, even when the quit screen is still visible. Consequently if you press Q three times, you will have to click Cancel three times to get back to the main screen. This is because bindings defined on App are always checked, and we call push_screen for every press of Q.
     
    The second flaw is that the modal dialog doesn't look modal. There is no indication that the main interface is still there, waiting to become active again.
     
    We can solve both those issues by replacing our use of Screen with ModalScreen. This screen sub-class will prevent key bindings on the app from being processed. It also sets a background with a little alpha to allow the previous screen to show through.
     
    Let's see what happens when we use ModalScreen.

    It is a common requirement for screens to be able to return data. For instance, you may want a screen to show a dialog and have the result of that dialog processed after the screen has been popped.
     
    To return data from a screen, call dismiss() on the screen with the data you wish to return. This will pop the screen and invoke a callback set when the screen was pushed (with push_screen).
     
    Let's modify the previous example to use dismiss rather than an explicit pop_screen.

    In the on_button_pressed message handler we call dismiss with a boolean that indicates if the user has chosen to quit the app. This boolean is passed to the check_quit function we provided when QuitScreen was pushed.
     
    Although this example behaves the same as the previous code, it is more flexible because it has removed responsibility for exiting from the modal screen to the caller. This makes it easier for the app to perform any cleanup actions prior to exiting, for example.
     
    Returning data in this way can help keep your code manageable by making it easy to re-use your Screen classes in other contexts.

    You may have noticed in the previous example that we changed the base class to ModalScreen[bool]. The addition of [bool] adds typing information that tells the type checker to expect a boolean in the call to dismiss, and that any callback set in push_screen should also expect the same type. As always, typing is optional in Textual, but this may help you catch bugs.

    Some apps may benefit from having multiple screen stacks, rather than just one. Consider an app with a dashboard screen, a settings screen, and a help screen. These are independent in the sense that we don't want to prevent the user from switching between them, even if there are one or more modal screens on the screen stack. But we may still want each individual screen to have a navigation stack where we can push and pop screens.
     
    In Textual we can manage this with modes. A mode is simply a named screen stack, which we can switch between as required. When we switch modes, the topmost screen in the new mode becomes the active visible screen.
     
    The following diagram illustrates such an app with modes. On startup the app switches to the \"dashboard\" mode which makes the top of the stack visible.

    To add modes to your app, define a MODES class variable in your App class which should be a dict that maps the name of the mode on to either a screen object, a callable that returns a screen, or the name of an installed screen. However you specify it, the values in MODES set the base screen for each mode's screen stack.
     
    You can switch between these screens at any time by calling App.switch_mode. When you switch to a new mode, the topmost screen in the new stack becomes visible. Any calls to App.push_screen or App.pop_screen will affect only the active mode.
     
    Let's look at an example with modes:
     modes01.pyOutputOutput (after pressing S) 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Footer, Placeholder\nclass DashboardScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Placeholder(\"Dashboard Screen\")\nyield Footer()\nclass SettingsScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Placeholder(\"Settings Screen\")\nyield Footer()\nclass HelpScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Placeholder(\"Help Screen\")\nyield Footer()\nclass ModesApp(App):\nBINDINGS = [\n(\"d\", \"switch_mode('dashboard')\", \"Dashboard\"),  # (1)!\n(\"s\", \"switch_mode('settings')\", \"Settings\"),\n(\"h\", \"switch_mode('help')\", \"Help\"),\n]\nMODES = {\n\"dashboard\": DashboardScreen,  # (2)!\n\"settings\": SettingsScreen,\n\"help\": HelpScreen,\n}\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.switch_mode(\"dashboard\")  # (3)!\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ModesApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. switch_mode is a builtin action to switch modes.
      2.  
    2. Associates DashboardScreen with the name \"dashboard\".
      3.  
    3. Switches to the dashboard mode.
      4.

    Here we have defined three screens. One for a dashboard, one for settings, and one for help. We've bound keys to each of these screens, so the user can switch between the screens.
     
    Pressing D, S, or H switches between these modes.

    Every Textual widget class provides a styles object which contains a number of attributes. These attributes tell Textual how the widget should be displayed. Setting any of these attributes will update the screen accordingly.
     
    Note
     
    These docs use the term screen to describe the contents of the terminal, which will typically be a window on your desktop.
     
    Let's look at a simple example which sets styles on screen (a special widget that represents the screen).
     screen.py
    from textual.app import App\nclass ScreenApp(App):\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.screen.styles.background = \"darkblue\"\nself.screen.styles.border = (\"heavy\", \"white\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ScreenApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The first line sets the background style to \"darkblue\" which will change the background color to dark blue. There are a few other ways of setting color which we will explore later.
     
    The second line sets border to a tuple of (\"heavy\", \"white\") which tells Textual to draw a white border with a style of \"heavy\". Running this code will show the following:

    Setting styles on screen is useful, but to create most user interfaces we will also need to apply styles to other widgets.
     
    The following example adds a static widget which we will apply some styles to:
     widget.py

    Widgets will occupy the full width of their container and as many lines as required to fit in the vertical direction.
     
    Note how the combined height of the widget is three rows in the terminal. This is because a border adds two rows (and two columns). If you were to remove the line that sets the border style, the widget would occupy a single row.
     
    Information
     
    Widgets will wrap text by default. If you were to replace \"Textual\" with a long paragraph of text, the widget will expand downwards to fit.

    There are a number of style attributes which accept colors. The most commonly used are color which sets the default color of text on a widget, and background which sets the background color (beneath the text).
     
    You can set a color value to one of a number of pre-defined color constants, such as \"crimson\", \"lime\", and \"palegreen\". You can find a full list in the Color API.
     
    Here's how you would set the screen background to lime:
     
    self.screen.styles.background = \"lime\"\n
     
    In addition to color names, you can also use any of the following ways of expressing a color:
     
       
    • RGB hex colors starts with a # followed by three pairs of one or two hex digits; one for the red, green, and blue color components. For example, #f00 is an intense red color, and #9932CC is dark orchid.
      •  
    • RGB decimal color start with rgb followed by a tuple of three numbers in the range 0 to 255. For example rgb(255,0,0) is intense red, and rgb(153,50,204) is dark orchid.
      •  
    • HSL colors start with hsl followed by a angle between 0 and 360 and two percentage values, representing Hue, Saturation and Lightness. For example hsl(0,100%,50%) is intense red and hsl(280,60%,49%) is dark orchid.
      •  
     
    The background and color styles also accept a Color object which can be used to create colors dynamically.
     
    The following example adds three widgets and sets their color styles.
     colors01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass ColorApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nself.widget1 = Static(\"Textual One\")\nyield self.widget1\nself.widget2 = Static(\"Textual Two\")\nyield self.widget2\nself.widget3 = Static(\"Textual Three\")\nyield self.widget3\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.widget1.styles.background = \"#9932CC\"\nself.widget2.styles.background = \"hsl(150,42.9%,49.4%)\"\nself.widget2.styles.color = \"blue\"\nself.widget3.styles.background = Color(191, 78, 96)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ColorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here is the output:
     
     ColorApp Textual\u00a0One Textual\u00a0Two Textual\u00a0Three 
    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#alpha","title":"Alpha","text":"
    Textual represents color internally as a tuple of three values for the red, green, and blue components.
     
    Textual supports a common fourth value called alpha which can make a color translucent. If you set alpha on a background color, Textual will blend the background with the color beneath it. If you set alpha on the text color, then Textual will blend the text with the background color.
     
    There are a few ways you can set alpha on a color in Textual.
     
       
    • You can set the alpha value of a color by adding a fourth digit or pair of digits to a hex color. The extra digits form an alpha component which ranges from 0 for completely transparent to 255 (completely opaque). Any value between 0 and 255 will be translucent. For example \"#9932CC7f\" is a dark orchid which is roughly 50% translucent.
      •  
    • You can also set alpha with the rgba format, which is identical to rgb with the additional of a fourth value that should be between 0 and 1, where 0 is invisible and 1 is opaque. For example \"rgba(192,78,96,0.5)\".
      •  
    • You can add the a parameter on a Color object. For example Color(192, 78, 96, a=0.5) creates a translucent dark orchid.
      •  
     
    The following example shows what happens when you set alpha on background colors:
     colors01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.color import Color\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass ColorApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nself.widgets = [Static(\"\") for n in range(10)]\nyield from self.widgets\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nfor index, widget in enumerate(self.widgets, 1):\nalpha = index * 0.1\nwidget.update(f\"alpha={alpha:.1f}\")\nwidget.styles.background = Color(191, 78, 96, a=alpha)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = ColorApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Notice that at an alpha of 0.1 the background almost matches the screen, but at 1.0 it is a solid color.
     
     ColorApp alpha=0.1 alpha=0.2 alpha=0.3 alpha=0.4 alpha=0.5 alpha=0.6 alpha=0.7 alpha=0.8 alpha=0.9 alpha=1.0

    Widgets occupy a rectangular region of the screen, which may be as small as a single character or as large as the screen (potentially larger if scrolling is enabled).
    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#box-model","title":"Box Model","text":"
    The following styles influence the dimensions of a widget.
     
       
    • width and height define the size of the widget.
      •  
    • padding adds optional space around the content area.
      •  
    • border draws an optional rectangular border around the padding and the content area.
      •  
     
    Additionally, the margin style adds space around a widget's border, which isn't technically part of the widget, but provides visual separation between widgets.
     
    Together these styles compose the widget's box model. The following diagram shows how these settings are combined:

    Setting the width restricts the number of columns used by a widget, and setting the height restricts the number of rows. Let's look at an example which sets both dimensions.
     dimensions01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nTEXT = \"\"\"I must not fear.\nFear is the mind-killer.\nFear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.\nI will face my fear.\nI will permit it to pass over me and through me.\nAnd when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.\nWhere the fear has gone there will be nothing.

    This code produces the following result.
     
     DimensionsApp I\u00a0must\u00a0not\u00a0fear. Fear\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0mind-killer. Fear\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0little-death\u00a0that\u00a0 brings\u00a0total\u00a0obliteration.

    Note how the text wraps in the widget, and is cropped because it doesn't fit in the space provided.
    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#auto-dimensions","title":"Auto dimensions","text":"
    In practice, we generally want the size of a widget to adapt to its content, which we can do by setting a dimension to \"auto\".
     
    Let's set the height to auto and see what happens.
     dimensions02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nTEXT = \"\"\"I must not fear.\nFear is the mind-killer.\nFear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.\nI will face my fear.\nI will permit it to pass over me and through me.\nAnd when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.\nWhere the fear has gone there will be nothing.

    If you run this you will see the height of the widget now grows to accommodate the full text:

    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#units","title":"Units","text":"
    Textual offers a few different units which allow you to specify dimensions relative to the screen or container. Relative units can better make use of available space if the user resizes the terminal.
     
       
    • Percentage units are given as a number followed by a percent (%) symbol and will set a dimension to a proportion of the widget's parent size. For instance, setting width to \"50%\" will cause a widget to be half the width of its parent.
      •  
    • View units are similar to percentage units, but explicitly reference a dimension. The vw unit sets a dimension to a percentage of the terminal width, and vh sets a dimension to a percentage of the terminal height.
      •  
    • The w unit sets a dimension to a percentage of the available width (which may be smaller than the terminal size if the widget is within another widget).
      •  
    • The h unit sets a dimension to a percentage of the available height.
      •  
     
    The following example demonstrates applying percentage units:
     dimensions03.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nTEXT = \"\"\"I must not fear.\nFear is the mind-killer.\nFear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.\nI will face my fear.\nI will permit it to pass over me and through me.\nAnd when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.\nWhere the fear has gone there will be nothing.

    With the width set to \"50%\" and the height set to \"80%\", the widget will keep those relative dimensions when resizing the terminal window:

    Percentage units can be problematic for some relative values. For instance, if we want to divide the screen into thirds, we would have to set a dimension to 33.3333333333% which is awkward. Textual supports fr units which are often better than percentage-based units for these situations.
     
    When specifying fr units for a given dimension, Textual will divide the available space by the sum of the fr units on that dimension. That space will then be divided amongst the widgets as a proportion of their individual fr values.
     
    Let's look at an example. We will create two widgets, one with a height of \"2fr\" and one with a height of \"1fr\".

    The total fr units for height is 3. The first widget will have a screen height of two thirds because its height style is set to 2fr. The second widget's height style is 1fr so its screen height will be one third. Here's what that looks like.

    "},{"location":"guide/styles/#box-sizing","title":"Box sizing","text":"
    When you set padding or border it reduces the size of the widget's content area. In other words, setting padding or border won't change the width or height of the widget.
     
    This is generally desirable when you arrange things on screen as you can add border or padding without breaking your layout. Occasionally though you may want to keep the size of the content area constant and grow the size of the widget to fit padding and border. The box-sizing style allows you to switch between these two modes.
     
    If you set box_sizing to \"content-box\" then space required for padding and border will be added to the widget dimensions. The default value of box_sizing is \"border-box\". Compare the box model diagram for content-box to the to the box model for border-box.

    The following example creates two widgets with a width of 30, a height of 6, and a border and padding of 1. The first widget has the default box_sizing (\"border-box\"). The second widget sets box_sizing to \"content-box\".

    The padding and border of the first widget is subtracted from the height leaving only 2 lines in the content area. The second widget also has a height of 6, but the padding and border adds additional height so that the content area remains 6 lines.

    Margin is similar to padding in that it adds space, but unlike padding, margin is outside of the widget's border. It is used to add space between widgets.
     
    The following example creates two widgets, each with a margin of 2.
     margin01.py

    Note
     
    In the above example both widgets have a margin of 2, but there are only 2 lines of space between the widgets. This is because margins of consecutive widgets overlap. In other words when there are two widgets next to each other Textual picks the greater of the two margins.

    You can often test Textual code in the same way as any other app, and use similar techniques. But when testing user interface interactions, you may need to use Textual's dedicated test features.
     
    Let's write a simple Textual app so we can demonstrate how to test it. The following app shows three buttons labelled \"red\", \"green\", and \"blue\". Clicking one of those buttons or pressing a corresponding R, G, and B key will change the background color.

    Although it is straightforward to test an app like this manually, it is not practical to click every button and hit every key in your app after changing a single line of code. Tests allow us to automate such testing so we can quickly simulate user interactions and check the result.
     
    To test our simple app we will use the run_test() method on the App class. This replaces the usual call to run() and will run the app in headless mode, which prevents Textual from updating the terminal but otherwise behaves as normal.
     
    The run_test() method is an async context manager which returns a Pilot object. You can use this object to interact with the app as if you were operating it with a keyboard and mouse.
     
    Let's look at the tests for the example above:
     test_rgb.py
    from rgb import RGBApp\nfrom textual.color import Color\nasync def test_keys():  # (1)!\n\"\"\"Test pressing keys has the desired result.\"\"\"\napp = RGBApp()\nasync with app.run_test() as pilot:  # (2)!\n# Test pressing the R key\nawait pilot.press(\"r\")  # (3)!\nassert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse(\"red\")  # (4)!\n# Test pressing the G key\nawait pilot.press(\"g\")\nassert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse(\"green\")\n# Test pressing the B key\nawait pilot.press(\"b\")\nassert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse(\"blue\")\n# Test pressing the X key\nawait pilot.press(\"x\")\n# No binding (so no change to the color)\nassert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse(\"blue\")\nasync def test_buttons():\n\"\"\"Test pressing keys has the desired result.\"\"\"\napp = RGBApp()\nasync with app.run_test() as pilot:\n# Test clicking the \"red\" button\nawait pilot.click(\"#red\")  # (5)!\nassert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse(\"red\")\n# Test clicking the \"green\" button\nawait pilot.click(\"#green\")\nassert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse(\"green\")\n# Test clicking the \"blue\" button\nawait pilot.click(\"#blue\")\nassert app.screen.styles.background == Color.parse(\"blue\")\n
     
       
    1. The run_test() method requires that it run in a coroutine, so test must use the async keyword.
      2.  
    2. This runs the app and returns a Pilot instance we can use to interact with it.
      3.  
    3. Simulates pressing the R key.
      4.  
    4. This checks that pressing the R key has resulted in the background color changing.
      5.  
    5. Simulates clicking on the widget with an id of red (the button labelled \"Red\").
      6.  
     
    There are two tests defined in test_rgb.py. One to test keys and one to test button clicks. Both tests first construct an instance of the app and call run_test() to get a Pilot object. The test_keys function simulates key presses with Pilot.press, and test_buttons simulates button clicks with Pilot.click.
     
    After simulating a user interaction, Textual tests will typically check the state has been updated with an assert statement. The pytest module will record any failures of these assert statements as a test fail.
     
    If you run the tests with pytest test_rgb.py you should get 2 passes, which will confirm that the user will be able to click buttons or press the keys to change the background color.
     
    If you later update this app, and accidentally break this functionality, one or more of your tests will fail. Knowing which test has failed will help you quickly track down where your code was broken.
    "},{"location":"guide/testing/#simulating-key-presses","title":"Simulating key presses","text":"
    We've seen how the press method simulates keys. You can also supply multiple keys to simulate the user typing in to the app. Here's an example of simulating the user typing the word \"hello\".
     
    await pilot.press(\"h\", \"e\", \"l\", \"l\", \"o\")\n
     
    Each string creates a single keypress. You can also use the name for non-printable keys (such as \"enter\") and the \"ctrl+\" modifier. These are the same identifiers as used for key events, which you can experiment with by running textual keys.

    "},{"location":"guide/testing/#clicking-the-screen","title":"Clicking the screen","text":"

    If you combine this with a selector, then the offset will be relative to the widget. Here's how you would click the line above a button.

    Some actions in a Textual app won't change the state immediately. For instance messages may take a moment to bubble from the widget that sent them. If you were to post a message and immediately assert you may find that it fails because the message hasn't yet been processed.
     
    You can generally solve this by calling pause() which will wait for all pending messages to be processed. You can also supply a delay parameter, which will insert a delay prior to waiting for pending messages.

    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#custom-widgets","title":"Custom widgets","text":"
    There is a growing collection of builtin widgets in Textual, but you can build entirely custom widgets that work in the same way.
     
    The first step in building a widget is to import and extend a widget class. This can either be Widget which is the base class of all widgets, or one of its subclasses.
     
    Let's create a simple custom widget to display a greeting.
     hello01.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult, RenderResult\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass Hello(Widget):\n\"\"\"Display a greeting.\"\"\"\ndef render(self) -> RenderResult:\nreturn \"Hello, [b]World[/b]!\"\nclass CustomApp(App):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Hello()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CustomApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The three highlighted lines define a custom widget class with just a render() method. Textual will display whatever is returned from render in the content area of your widget. We have returned a string in the code above, but there are other possible return types which we will cover later.
     
    Note that the text contains tags in square brackets, i.e. [b]. This is console markup which allows you to embed various styles within your content. If you run this you will find that World is in bold.
     
     CustomApp Hello,\u00a0World! 
     
    This (very simple) custom widget may be styled in the same way as builtin widgets, and targeted with CSS. Let's add some CSS to this app.
     hello02.pyhello02.tcss hello02.py
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult, RenderResult\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass Hello(Widget):\n\"\"\"Display a greeting.\"\"\"\ndef render(self) -> RenderResult:\nreturn \"Hello, [b]World[/b]!\"\nclass CustomApp(App):\nCSS_PATH = \"hello02.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Hello()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CustomApp()\napp.run()\n
     hello02.tcss

    While you can extend the Widget class, a subclass will typically be a better starting point. The Static class is a widget subclass which caches the result of render, and provides an update() method to update the content area.
     
    Let's use Static to create a widget which cycles through \"hello\" in various languages.

    Note that there is no render() method on this widget. The Static class is handling the render for us. Instead we call update() when we want to update the content within the widget.
     
    The next_word method updates the greeting. We call this method from the mount handler to get the first word, and from a click handler to cycle through the greetings when we click the widget.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#default-css","title":"Default CSS","text":"
    When building an app it is best to keep your CSS in an external file. This allows you to see all your CSS in one place, and to enable live editing. However if you intend to distribute a widget (via PyPI for instance) it can be convenient to bundle the code and CSS together. You can do this by adding a DEFAULT_CSS class variable inside your widget class.
     
    Textual's builtin widgets bundle CSS in this way, which is why you can see nicely styled widgets without having to copy any CSS code.
     
    Here's the Hello example again, this time the widget has embedded default CSS:

    CSS defined within DEFAULT_CSS has an automatically lower specificity than CSS read from either the App's CSS class variable or an external stylesheet. In practice this means that your app's CSS will take precedence over any CSS bundled with widgets.

    Text in a widget may be marked up with links which perform an action when clicked. Links in console markup use the following format:

    The @click tag introduces a click handler, which runs the app.bell action.
     
    Let's use markup links in the hello example so that the greeting becomes a link which updates the widget.

    Every widget has a border_title and border_subtitle attribute. Setting border_title will display text within the top border, and setting border_subtitle will display text within the bottom border.
     
    Note
     
    Border titles will only display if the widget has a border enabled.
     
    The default value for these attributes is empty string, which disables the title. You can change the default value for the title attributes with the BORDER_TITLE and BORDER_SUBTITLE class variables.

    Widgets can have tooltips which is content displayed when the user hovers the mouse over the widget. You can use tooltips to add supplementary information or help messages.
     
    Tip
     
    It is best not to rely on tooltips for essential information. Some users prefer to use the keyboard exclusively and may never see tooltips.
     
    To add a tooltip, assign to the widget's tooltip property. You can set text or any other Rich renderable.
     
    The following example adds a tooltip to a button:

    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#line-api","title":"Line API","text":"
    A downside of widgets that return Rich renderables is that Textual will redraw the entire widget when its state is updated or it changes size. If a widget is large enough to require scrolling, or updates frequently, then this redrawing can make your app feel less responsive. Textual offers an alternative API which reduces the amount of work required to refresh a widget, and makes it possible to update portions of a widget (as small as a single character) without a full redraw. This is known as the line API.
     
    Note
     
    The Line API requires a little more work that typical Rich renderables, but can produce powerful widgets such as the builtin DataTable which can handle thousands or even millions of rows.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#render-line-method","title":"Render Line method","text":"
    To build a widget with the line API, implement a render_line method rather than a render method. The render_line method takes a single integer argument y which is an offset from the top of the widget, and should return a Strip object containing that line's content.

...])Strip([segment, segment, ...])Strip([segment, segment, ...]) 
    Let's look at an example before we go in to the details. The following Textual app implements a widget with the line API that renders a checkerboard pattern. This might form the basis of a chess / checkers game. Here's the code:
     checker01.pyOutput checker01.py
    from rich.segment import Segment\nfrom rich.style import Style\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.strip import Strip\nfrom textual.widget import Widget\nclass CheckerBoard(Widget):\n\"\"\"Render an 8x8 checkerboard.\"\"\"\ndef render_line(self, y: int) -> Strip:\n\"\"\"Render a line of the widget. y is relative to the top of the widget.\"\"\"\nrow_index = y // 4  # A checkerboard square consists of 4 rows\nif row_index >= 8:  # Generate blank lines when we reach the end\nreturn Strip.blank(self.size.width)\nis_odd = row_index % 2  # Used to alternate the starting square on each row\nwhite = Style.parse(\"on white\")  # Get a style object for a white background\nblack = Style.parse(\"on black\")  # Get a style object for a black background\n# Generate a list of segments with alternating black and white space characters\nsegments = [\nSegment(\" \" * 8, black if (column + is_odd) % 2 else white)\nfor column in range(8)\n]\nstrip = Strip(segments, 8 * 8)\nreturn strip\nclass BoardApp(App):\n\"\"\"A simple app to show our widget.\"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield CheckerBoard()\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = BoardApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     BoardApp 
     
    The render_line method above calculates a Strip for every row of characters in the widget. Each strip contains alternating black and white space characters which form the squares in the checkerboard.
     
    You may have noticed that the checkerboard widget makes use of some objects we haven't covered before. Let's explore those.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#segment-and-style","title":"Segment and Style","text":"
    A Segment is a class borrowed from the Rich project. It is small object (actually a named tuple) which bundles a string to be displayed and a Style which tells Textual how the text should look (color, bold, italic etc).
     
    Let's look at a simple segment which would produce the text \"Hello, World!\" in bold.

    Both Rich and Textual work with segments to generate content. A Textual app is the result of combining hundreds, or perhaps thousands, of segments,
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#strips","title":"Strips","text":"
    A Strip is a container for a number of segments covering a single line (or row) in the Widget. A Strip will contain at least one segment, but often many more.
     
    A Strip is constructed from a list of Segment objects. Here's now you might construct a strip that displays the text \"Hello, World!\", but with the second word in bold:
     
    segments = [\nSegment(\"Hello, \"),\nSegment(\"World\", Style(bold=True)),\nSegment(\"!\")\n]\nstrip = Strip(segments)\n
     
    The first and third Segment omit a style, which results in the widget's default style being used. The second segment has a style object which applies bold to the text \"World\". If this were part of a widget it would produce the text: Hello, World!
     
    The Strip constructor has an optional second parameter, which should be the cell length of the strip. The strip above has a length of 13, so we could have constructed it like this:
     
    strip = Strip(segments, 13)\n
     
    Note that the cell length parameter is not the total number of characters in the string. It is the number of terminal \"cells\". Some characters (such as Asian language characters and certain emoji) take up the space of two Western alphabet characters. If you don't know in advance the number of cells your segments will occupy, it is best to omit the length parameter so that Textual calculates it automatically.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#component-classes","title":"Component classes","text":"
    When applying styles to widgets we can use CSS to select the child widgets. Widgets rendered with the line API don't have children per-se, but we can still use CSS to apply styles to parts of our widget by defining component classes. Component classes are associated with a widget by defining a COMPONENT_CLASSES class variable which should be a set of strings containing CSS class names.
     
    In the checkerboard example above we hard-coded the color of the squares to \"white\" and \"black\". But what if we want to create a checkerboard with different colors? We can do this by defining two component classes, one for the \"white\" squares and one for the \"dark\" squares. This will allow us to change the colors with CSS.
     
    The following example replaces our hard-coded colors with component classes.

     BoardApp 
     
    The COMPONENT_CLASSES class variable above adds two class names: checkerboard--white-square and checkerboard--black-square. These are set in the DEFAULT_CSS but can modified in the app's CSS class variable or external CSS.
     
    Tip
     
    Component classes typically begin with the name of the widget followed by two hyphens. This is a convention to avoid potential name clashes.
     
    The render_line method calls get_component_rich_style to get Style objects from the CSS, which we apply to the segments to create a more colorful looking checkerboard.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#scrolling","title":"Scrolling","text":"
    A Line API widget can be made to scroll by extending the ScrollView class (rather than Widget). The ScrollView class will do most of the work, but we will need to manage the following details:
     
       
    1. The ScrollView class requires a virtual size, which is the size of the scrollable content and should be set via the virtual_size property. If this is larger than the widget then Textual will add scrollbars.
      2.  
    2. We need to update the render_line method to generate strips for the visible area of the widget, taking into account the current position of the scrollbars.
      3.  
     
    Let's add scrolling to our checkerboard example. A standard 8 x 8 board isn't sufficient to demonstrate scrolling so we will make the size of the board configurable and set it to 100 x 100, for a total of 10,000 squares.

     BoardApp \u2585\u2585 \u258b 
     
    The virtual size is set in the constructor to match the total size of the board, which will enable scrollbars (unless you have your terminal zoomed out very far). You can update the virtual_size attribute dynamically as required, but our checkerboard isn't going to change size so we only need to set it once.
     
    The render_line method gets the scroll offset which is an Offset containing the current position of the scrollbars. We add scroll_offset.y to the y argument because y is relative to the top of the widget, and we need a Y coordinate relative to the scrollable content.
     
    We also need to compensate for the position of the horizontal scrollbar. This is done in the call to strip.crop which crops the strip to the visible area between scroll_x and scroll_x + self.size.width.
     
    Tip

    The Line API makes it possible to refresh parts of a widget, as small as a single character. Refreshing smaller regions makes updates more efficient, and keeps your widget feeling responsive.
     
    To demonstrate this we will update the checkerboard to highlight the square under the mouse pointer. Here's the code:

    We've added a style to the checkerboard which is the color of the highlighted square, with a default of \"darkred\". We will need this when we come to render the highlighted square.
     
    We've also added a reactive variable called cursor_square which will hold the coordinate of the square underneath the mouse. Note that we have used var which gives us reactive superpowers but won't automatically refresh the whole widget, because we want to update only the squares under the cursor.
     
    The on_mouse_move handler takes the mouse coordinates from the MouseMove object and calculates the coordinate of the square underneath the mouse. There's a little math here, so let's break it down.
     
       
    • The event contains the coordinates of the mouse relative to the top left of the widget, but we need the coordinate relative to the top left of board which depends on the position of the scrollbars. We can perform this conversion by adding self.scroll_offset to event.offset.
      •  
    • Once we have the board coordinate underneath the mouse we divide the x coordinate by 8 and divide the y coordinate by 4 to give us the coordinate of a square.
      •  
     
    If the cursor square coordinate calculated in on_mouse_move changes, Textual will call watch_cursor_square with the previous coordinate and new coordinate of the square. This method works out the regions of the widget to update and essentially does the reverse of the steps we took to go from mouse coordinates to square coordinates. The get_square_region function calculates a Region object for each square and uses them as a positional argument in a call to refresh. Passing Region objects to refresh tells Textual to update only the cells underneath those regions, and not the entire widget.
     
    Note
     
    Textual is smart about performing updates. If you refresh multiple regions, Textual will combine them into as few non-overlapping regions as possible.
     
    The final step is to update the render_line method to use the cursor style when rendering the square underneath the mouse.
     
    You should find that if you move the mouse over the widget now, it will highlight the square underneath the mouse pointer in red.

    Widgets may be combined to create new widgets with additional features. Such widgets are known as compound widgets. The stopwatch in the tutorial is an example of a compound widget.
     
    A compound widget can be used like any other widget. The only thing that differs is that when you build a compound widget, you write a compose() method which yields child widgets, rather than implement a render or render_line method.
     
    The following is an example of a compound widget.
     compound01.pyOutput compound01.py

    Widgets rarely exist in isolation, and often need to communicate or exchange data with other parts of your app. This is not difficult to do, but there is a risk that widgets can become dependant on each other, making it impossible to reuse a widget without copying a lot of dependant code.
     
    In this section we will show how to design and build a fully-working app, while keeping widgets reusable.

    We are going to build a byte editor which allows you to enter a number in both decimal and binary. You could use this a teaching aid for binary numbers.
     
    Here's a sketch of what the app should ultimately look like:

    There are plenty of resources on the web, such as this excellent video from Khan Academy if you want to brush up on binary numbers.

    There are three types of built-in widget in the sketch, namely (Input, Label, and Switch). Rather than manage these as a single collection of widgets, we can arrange them in to logical groups with compound widgets. This will make our app easier to work with.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#identifying-components","title":"Identifying components","text":"
    We will divide this UI into three compound widgets:
     
       
    1. BitSwitch for a switch with a numeric label.
      2.  
    2. ByteInput which contains 8 BitSwitch widgets.
      3.  
    3. ByteEditor which contains a ByteInput and an Input to show the decimal value.
      4.  
     
    This is not the only way we could implement our design with compound widgets. So why these three widgets? As a rule of thumb, a widget should handle one piece of data, which is why we have an independent widget for a bit, a byte, and the decimal value.

    Note the compose() methods of each of the widgets.
     
       
    •  
      The BitSwitch yields a Label which displays the bit number, and a Switch control for that bit. The default CSS for BitSwitch aligns its children vertically, and sets the label's text-align to center.
       
      •  
    •  
      The ByteInput yields 8 BitSwitch widgets and arranges them horizontally. It also adds a focus-within style in its CSS to draw an accent border when any of the switches are focused.
       
      •  
    •  
      The ByteEditor yields a ByteInput and an Input control. The default CSS stacks the two controls on top of each other to divide the screen in to two parts.
       
      •  
     
    With these three widgets, the DOM for our app will look like this:

    Now that we have the design in place, we can implement the behavior.
    "},{"location":"guide/widgets/#data-flow","title":"Data flow","text":"
    We want to ensure that our widgets are re-usable, which we can do by following the guideline of \"attributes down, messages up\". This means that a widget can update a child by setting its attributes or calling its methods, but widgets should only ever send messages to their parent (or other ancestors).
     
    Info
     
    This pattern of only setting attributes in one direction and using messages for the opposite direction is known as uni-directional data flow.
     
    In practice, this means that to update a child widget you get a reference to it and use it like any other Python object. Here's an example of an action that updates a child widget:
     
    def action_set_true(self):\nself.query_one(Switch).value = 1\n
     
    If a child needs to update a parent, it should send a message with post_message.
     
    Here's an example of posting message:
     
    def on_click(self):\nself.post_message(MyWidget.Change(active=True))\n
     
    Note that attributes down and messages up means that you can't modify widgets on the same level directly. If you want to modify a sibling, you will need to send a message to the parent, and the parent would make the changes.

    • The BitSwitch widget now has an on_switch_changed method which will handle a Switch.Changed message, sent when the user clicks a switch. We use this to store the new value of the bit, and sent a new custom message, BitSwitch.BitChanged.
      •  
    • The ByteEditor widget handles the BitSwitch.Changed message by calculating the decimal value and setting it on the input.
      •

    1. When the BitSwitch's value changed, we want to update the builtin Switch to match.
      2.  
    2. Ensure the value is in a the range of a byte.
      3.  
    3. Handle the Input.Changed event when the user modified the value in the input.
      4.  
    4. When the ByteEditor value changes, update all the switches to match.
      5.  
    5. Prevent the BitChanged message from being sent.
      6.

    • When the user edits the input, the Input widget sends a Changed event, which we handle with on_input_changed by setting self.value, which is a reactive value we added to ByteEditor.
      •  
    • If the value has changed, Textual will call watch_value which sets the value of each of the eight switches. Because we are working with children of the ByteEditor, we can set attributes directly without going via a message.

    In this chapter we will explore the topic of concurrency and how to use Textual's Worker API to make it easier.
     
    The Worker API was added in version 0.18.0
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#concurrency","title":"Concurrency","text":"
    There are many interesting uses for Textual which require reading data from an internet service. When an app requests data from the network it is important that it doesn't prevent the user interface from updating. In other words, the requests should be concurrent (happen at the same time) as the UI updates.
     
    Managing this concurrency is a tricky topic, in any language or framework. Even for experienced developers, there are gotchas which could make your app lock up or behave oddly. Textual's Worker API makes concurrency far less error prone and easier to reason about.

    If you were to run this app, you should see weather information update as you type. But you may find that the input is not as responsive as usual, with a noticeable delay between pressing a key and seeing it echoed in screen. This is because we are making a request to the weather API within a message handler, and the app will not be able to process other messages until the request has completed (which may be anything from a few hundred milliseconds to several seconds later).
     
    To resolve this we can use the run_worker method which runs the update_weather coroutine (async def function) in the background. Here's the code:
     weather02.py
    import httpx\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.run_worker(self.update_weather(message.value), exclusive=True)\nasync def update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nasync with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:\nresponse = await client.get(url)\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response.text)\nweather_widget.update(weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nweather_widget.update(\"\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    This one line change will make typing as responsive as you would expect from any app.
     
    The run_worker method schedules a new worker to run update_weather, and returns a Worker object. This happens almost immediately, so it won't prevent other messages from being processed. The update_weather function is now running concurrently, and will finish a second or two later.
     
    Tip
     
    The Worker object has a few useful methods on it, but you can often ignore it as we did in weather02.py.
     
    The call to run_worker also sets exclusive=True which solves an additional problem with concurrent network requests: when pulling data from the network, there is no guarantee that you will receive the responses in the same order as the requests. For instance, if you start typing \"Paris\", you may get the response for \"Pari\" after the response for \"Paris\", which could show the wrong weather information. The exclusive flag tells Textual to cancel all previous workers before starting the new one.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#work-decorator","title":"Work decorator","text":"
    An alternative to calling run_worker manually is the work decorator, which automatically generates a worker from the decorated method.
     
    Let's use this decorator in our weather app:
     weather03.py
    import httpx\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual import work\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.update_weather(message.value)\n@work(exclusive=True)\nasync def update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nasync with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:\nresponse = await client.get(url)\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response.text)\nweather_widget.update(weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nweather_widget.update(\"\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The addition of @work(exclusive=True) converts the update_weather coroutine into a regular function which when called will create and start a worker. Note that even though update_weather is an async def function, the decorator means that we don't need to use the await keyword when calling it.
     
    Tip
     
    The decorator takes the same arguments as run_worker.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#worker-return-values","title":"Worker return values","text":"
    When you run a worker, the return value of the function won't be available until the work has completed. You can check the return value of a worker with the worker.result attribute which will initially be None, but will be replaced with the return value of the function when it completes.
     
    If you need the return value you can call worker.wait which is a coroutine that will wait for the work to complete. But note that if you do this in a message handler it will also prevent the widget from updating until the worker returns. Often a better approach is to handle worker events which will notify your app when a worker completes, and the return value is available without waiting.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#cancelling-workers","title":"Cancelling workers","text":"
    You can cancel a worker at any time before it is finished by calling Worker.cancel. This will raise a CancelledError within the coroutine, and should cause it to exit prematurely.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#worker-errors","title":"Worker errors","text":"
    The default behavior when a worker encounters an exception is to exit the app and display the traceback in the terminal. You can also create workers which will not immediately exit on exception, by setting exit_on_error=False on the call to run_worker or the @work decorator.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#worker-lifetime","title":"Worker lifetime","text":"
    Workers are managed by a single WorkerManager instance, which you can access via app.workers. This is a container-like object which you iterate over to see your active workers.
     
    Workers are tied to the DOM node (widget, screen, or app) where they are created. This means that if you remove the widget or pop the screen where they are created, then the tasks will be cleaned up automatically. Similarly if you exit the app, any running tasks will be cancelled.
     
    Worker objects have a state attribute which will contain a WorkerState enumeration that indicates what the worker is doing at any given time. The state attribute will contain one of the following values:
     Value Description PENDING The worker was created, but not yet started. RUNNING The worker is currently running. CANCELLED The worker was cancelled and is no longer running. ERROR The worker raised an exception, and worker.error will contain the exception. SUCCESS The worker completed successful, and worker.result will contain the return value.

    When a worker changes state, it sends a Worker.StateChanged event to the widget where the worker was created. You can handle this message by defining an on_worker_state_changed event handler. For instance, here is how we might log the state of the worker that updates the weather:
     weather04.py
    import httpx\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual import work\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nfrom textual.worker import Worker\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.update_weather(message.value)\n@work(exclusive=True)\nasync def update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nasync with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:\nresponse = await client.get(url)\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response.text)\nweather_widget.update(weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nweather_widget.update(\"\")\ndef on_worker_state_changed(self, event: Worker.StateChanged) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the worker state changes.\"\"\"\nself.log(event)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    If you run the above code with textual you should see the worker lifetime events logged in the Textual console.
     
    textual run weather04.py --dev\n
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#thread-workers","title":"Thread workers","text":"
    In previous examples we used run_worker or the work decorator in conjunction with coroutines. This works well if you are using an async API like httpx, but if your API doesn't support async you may need to use threads.
     
    What are threads?
     
    Threads are a form of concurrency supplied by your Operating System. Threads allow your code to run more than a single function simultaneously.
     
    You can create threads by setting thread=True on the run_worker method or the work decorator. The API for thread workers is identical to async workers, but there are a few differences you need to be aware of when writing code for thread workers.
     
    The first difference is that you should avoid calling methods on your UI directly, or setting reactive variables. You can work around this with the App.call_from_thread method which schedules a call in the main thread.
     
    The second difference is that you can't cancel threads in the same way as coroutines, but you can manually check if the worker was cancelled.
     
    Let's demonstrate thread workers by replacing httpx with urllib.request (in the standard library). The urllib module is not async aware, so we will need to use threads:
     weather05.py
    from urllib.request import Request, urlopen\nfrom rich.text import Text\nfrom textual import work\nfrom textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.widgets import Input, Static\nfrom textual.worker import Worker, get_current_worker\nclass WeatherApp(App):\n\"\"\"App to display the current weather.\"\"\"\nCSS_PATH = \"weather.tcss\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Input(placeholder=\"Enter a City\")\nwith VerticalScroll(id=\"weather-container\"):\nyield Static(id=\"weather\")\nasync def on_input_changed(self, message: Input.Changed) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the input changes\"\"\"\nself.update_weather(message.value)\n@work(exclusive=True, thread=True)\ndef update_weather(self, city: str) -> None:\n\"\"\"Update the weather for the given city.\"\"\"\nweather_widget = self.query_one(\"#weather\", Static)\nworker = get_current_worker()\nif city:\n# Query the network API\nurl = f\"https://wttr.in/{city}\"\nrequest = Request(url)\nrequest.add_header(\"User-agent\", \"CURL\")\nresponse_text = urlopen(request).read().decode(\"utf-8\")\nweather = Text.from_ansi(response_text)\nif not worker.is_cancelled:\nself.call_from_thread(weather_widget.update, weather)\nelse:\n# No city, so just blank out the weather\nif not worker.is_cancelled:\nself.call_from_thread(weather_widget.update, \"\")\ndef on_worker_state_changed(self, event: Worker.StateChanged) -> None:\n\"\"\"Called when the worker state changes.\"\"\"\nself.log(event)\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = WeatherApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    In this example, the update_weather is not asynchronous (i.e. a regular function). The @work decorator has thread=True which makes it a thread worker. Note the use of get_current_worker which the function uses to check if it has been cancelled or not.
     
    Important
     
    Textual will raise an exception if you add the work decorator to a regular function without thread=True.
    "},{"location":"guide/workers/#posting-messages","title":"Posting messages","text":"
    Most Textual functions are not thread-safe which means you will need to use call_from_thread to run them from a thread worker. An exception would be post_message which is thread-safe. If your worker needs to make multiple updates to the UI, it is a good idea to send custom messages and let the message handler update the state of the UI.

    If you have ever needed to center something in a web page, you will be glad to know it is much easier in Textual.
     
    This article discusses a few different ways in which things can be centered, and the differences between them.
    "},{"location":"how-to/center-things/#aligning-widgets","title":"Aligning widgets","text":"
    The align rule will center a widget relative to one or both edges. This rule is applied to a container, and will impact how the container's children are arranged. Let's see this in practice with a trivial app containing a Static widget:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"Hello, World!\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here's the output:
     
     CenterApp Hello,\u00a0World! 
     
    The container of the widget is the screen, which has the align: center middle; rule applied. The center part tells Textual to align in the horizontal direction, and middle tells Textual to align in the vertical direction.
     
    The output may surprise you. The text appears to be aligned in the middle (i.e. vertical edge), but left aligned on the horizontal. This isn't a bug \u2014 I promise. Let's make a small change to reveal what is happening here. In the next example, we will add a background and a border to our text:
     
    Tip
     
    Adding a border is a very good way of visualizing layout issues, if something isn't behaving as you would expect.
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    #hello {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"Hello, World!\", id=\"hello\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    The static widget will now have a blue background and white border:
     
     CenterApp \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eHello,\u00a0World!\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 
     
    Note the static widget is as wide as the screen. Since the widget is as wide as its container, there is no room for it to move in the horizontal direction.
     
    Info
     
    The align rule applies to widgets, not the text.
     
    In order to see the center alignment, we will have to make the widget smaller than the width of the screen. Let's set the width of the Static widget to auto, which will make the widget just wide enough to fit the content:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    #hello {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"Hello, World!\", id=\"hello\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    If you run this now, you should see the widget is aligned on both axis:
     
     CenterApp \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eHello,\u00a0World!\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 
    "},{"location":"how-to/center-things/#aligning-text","title":"Aligning text","text":"
    In addition to aligning widgets, you may also want to align text. In order to demonstrate the difference, lets update the example with some longer text. We will also set the width of the widget to something smaller, to force the text to wrap.

    Note how the widget is centered, but the text within it is flushed to the left edge. Left aligned text is the default, but you can also center the text with the text-align rule. Let's center align the longer text by setting this rule:

    There is one last rule that can help us center things. The content-align rule aligns content within a widget. It treats the text as a rectangular region and positions it relative to the space inside a widget's border.
     
    In order to see why we might need this rule, we need to make the Static widget larger than required to fit the text. Let's set the height of the Static widget to 9 to give the content room to move:

    Textual aligns a widget's content to the top border by default, which is why the space is below the text. We can tell Textual to align the content to the center by setting content-align: center middle;
     
    Note
     
    Strictly speaking, we only need to align the content vertically here (there is no room to move the content left or right) So we could have done content-align-vertical: middle;

    It's just as easy to align multiple widgets as it is a single widget. Applying align: center middle; to the parent widget (screen or other container) will align all its children.
     
    Let's create an example with two widgets. The following code adds two widgets with auto dimensions:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    .words {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"How about a nice game\", classes=\"words\")\nyield Static(\"of chess?\", classes=\"words\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    This produces the following output:
     
     CenterApp \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eHow\u00a0about\u00a0a\u00a0nice\u00a0game\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 \u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581\u2581 \u258eof\u00a0chess?\u258a \u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594\u2594 
     
    We can center both those widgets by applying the align rule as before:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    .words {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Static(\"How about a nice game\", classes=\"words\")\nyield Static(\"of chess?\", classes=\"words\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n
     
    Here's the output:

    Note how the widgets are aligned as if they are a single group. In other words, their position relative to each other didn't change, just their position relative to the screen.
     
    If you do want to center each widget independently, you can place each widget inside its own container, and set align for those containers. Textual has a builtin Center container for just this purpose.
     
    Let's wrap our two widgets in a Center container:
     
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import Center\nfrom textual.widgets import Static\nclass CenterApp(App):\n\"\"\"How to center things.\"\"\"\nCSS = \"\"\"\n    Screen {\n        align: center middle;\n    }\n    .words {\n        background: blue 50%;\n        border: wide white;\n        width: auto;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nwith Center():\nyield Static(\"How about a nice game\", classes=\"words\")\nwith Center():\nyield Static(\"of chess?\", classes=\"words\")\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = CenterApp()\napp.run()\n

    Keep the following in mind when you want to center content in Textual:
     
       
    • In order to center a widget, it needs to be smaller than its container.
      •  
    • The align rule is applied to the parent of the widget you want to center (i.e. the widget's container).
      •  
    • The text-align rule aligns text on a line by line basis.
      •  
    • The content-align rule aligns content within a widget.
      •  
    • Use the Center container if you want to align multiple widgets relative to each other.
      •  
    • Add a border if the alignment isn't working as you would expect.

    It's rough, but it's all we need.

    Like a sculpture with a block of marble, it is best to work from the outside towards the center. If your design has fixed elements (like a header, footer, or sidebar), start with those first.
     
    In our sketch we have a header and footer. Since these are the outermost widgets, we will begin by adding them.
     
    Tip
     
    Textual has builtin Header and Footer widgets which you could use in a real application.
     
    The following example defines an app, a screen, and our header and footer widgets. Since we're starting from scratch and don't have any functionality for our widgets, we are going to use the Placeholder widget to help us visualize our design.
     
    In a real app, we would replace these placeholders with more useful content.
     layout01.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):  # (1)!\npass\nclass Footer(Placeholder):  # (2)!\npass\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")  # (3)!\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")  # (4)!\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_mount(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The Header widget extends Placeholder.
      2.  
    2. The footer widget extends Placeholder.
      3.  
    3. Creates the header widget (the id will be displayed within the placeholder widget).
      4.  
    4. Creates the footer widget.
      5.  
     
     LayoutApp #Header

    This app works, but the header and footer don't behave as expected. We want both of these widgets to be fixed to an edge of the screen and limited in height. In Textual this is known as docking which you can apply with the dock rule.
     
    We will dock the header and footer to the top and bottom edges of the screen respectively, by adding a little CSS to the widget classes:
     layout02.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     LayoutApp #Header #Footer 
     
    The DEFAULT_CSS class variable is used to set CSS directly in Python code. We could define these in an external CSS file, but writing the CSS inline like this can be convenient if it isn't too complex.
     
    When you dock a widget, it reduces the available area for other widgets. This means that Textual will automatically compensate for the 6 additional lines reserved for the header and footer.
    "},{"location":"how-to/design-a-layout/#tip-4-use-fr-units-for-flexible-things","title":"Tip 4. Use FR Units for flexible things","text":"
    After we've added the header and footer, we want the remaining space to be used for the main interface, which will contain the columns in the sketch. This area is flexible (will change according to the size of the terminal), so how do we ensure that it takes up precisely the space needed?
     
    The simplest way is to use fr units. By setting both the width and height to 1fr, we are telling Textual to divide the space equally amongst the remaining widgets. There is only a single widget, so that widget will fill all of the remaining space.
     
    Let's make that change.
     layout03.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass ColumnsContainer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    ColumnsContainer {\n        width: 1fr;\n        height: 1fr;\n        border: solid white;\n    }\n    \"\"\"  # (1)!\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nyield ColumnsContainer(id=\"Columns\")\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. Here's where we set the width and height to 1fr. We also add a border just to illustrate the dimensions better.

    As you can see, the central Columns area will resize with the terminal window.
    "},{"location":"how-to/design-a-layout/#tip-5-use-containers","title":"Tip 5. Use containers","text":"
    Before we add content to the Columns area, we have an opportunity to simplify. Rather than extend Placeholder for our ColumnsContainer widget, we can use one of the builtin containers. A container is simply a widget designed to contain other widgets. Containers are styled with fr units to fill the remaining space so we won't need to add any more CSS.
     
    Let's replace the ColumnsContainer class in the previous example with a HorizontalScroll container, which also adds an automatic horizontal scrollbar.
     layout04.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import HorizontalScroll\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nyield HorizontalScroll()  # (1)!\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
       
    1. The builtin container widget.
      2.  
     
     LayoutApp #Header #Footer 
     
    The container will appear as blank space until we add some widgets to it.
     
    Let's add the columns to the HorizontalScroll. A column is itself a container which will have a vertical scrollbar, so we will define our Column by subclassing VerticalScroll. In a real app, these columns will likely be added dynamically from some kind of configuration, but let's add 4 to visualize the layout.
     
    We will also define a Tweet placeholder and add a few to each column.
     layout05.pyOutput 
    from textual.app import App, ComposeResult\nfrom textual.containers import HorizontalScroll, VerticalScroll\nfrom textual.screen import Screen\nfrom textual.widgets import Placeholder\nclass Header(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Header {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: top;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Footer(Placeholder):\nDEFAULT_CSS = \"\"\"\n    Footer {\n        height: 3;\n        dock: bottom;\n    }\n    \"\"\"\nclass Tweet(Placeholder):\npass\nclass Column(VerticalScroll):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nfor tweet_no in range(1, 20):\nyield Tweet(id=f\"Tweet{tweet_no}\")\nclass TweetScreen(Screen):\ndef compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Header(id=\"Header\")\nyield Footer(id=\"Footer\")\nwith HorizontalScroll():\nyield Column()\nyield Column()\nyield Column()\nyield Column()\nclass LayoutApp(App):\ndef on_ready(self) -> None:\nself.push_screen(TweetScreen())\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\napp = LayoutApp()\napp.run()\n
     
     LayoutApp #Header #Tweet1#Tweet1#Tweet1#Tweet1 #Footer 
     
    Note from the output that each Column takes a quarter of the screen width. This happens because Column extends a container which has a width of 1fr.
     
    It makes more sense for a column in a Twitter / Mastodon client to use a fixed width. Let's set the width of the columns to 32.
     
    We also want to reduce the height of each \"tweet\". In the real app, you might set the height to \"auto\" so it fits the content, but lets set it to 5 lines for now.
     
    Here's the final example and a reminder of the sketch.

    A layout like this is a great starting point. In a real app, you would start replacing each of the placeholders with builtin or custom widgets.
    "},{"location":"how-to/design-a-layout/#summary","title":"Summary","text":"
    Layout is the first thing you will tackle when building a Textual app. The following tips will help you get started.
     
       
    1. Make a sketch (pen and paper is fine).
      2.  
    2. Work outside in. Start with the entire space of the terminal, add the outermost content first.
      3.  
    3. Dock fixed widgets. If the content doesn't move or scroll, you probably want to dock it.
      4.  
    4. Make use of fr for flexible space within layouts.
      5.  
    5. Use containers to contain other widgets, particularly if they scroll!
      6.

    The next example makes the difference between border and outline clearer by having three labels side-by-side. They contain the same text, have the same width and height, and are styled exactly the same up to their border and outline styles.

    1. Border (sub)titles can contain nested markup.
      2.  
    2. Long (sub)titles get truncated and occupy as much space as possible.
      3.  
    3. (Sub)titles can be stylised with Rich markup.
      4.  
    4. An empty (sub)title isn't displayed.
      5.  
    5. The markup can even contain Rich links.
      6.  
    6. If the widget does not have a border, the title and subtitle are not shown.
      7.  
    7. When the side borders are not set, the (sub)title will align with the edge of the widget.
      8.  
    8. The title and subtitle are aligned on the left and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the rightmost character of the border edge.
      9.  
    9. The title and subtitle are centered and very long, so they get truncated and are centered with one character of padding on each side.
      10.  
    10. The title and subtitle are aligned on the right and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the leftmost character of the border edge.
      11.  
    11. An auxiliary function to create labels with border title and subtitle.
      12.

    1. The default alignment for the title is left and the default alignment for the subtitle is right.
      2.  
    2. Specifying an alignment when the (sub)title is too long has no effect. (Although, it will have an effect if the (sub)title is shortened or if the widget is widened.)
      3.  
    3. Setting the alignment does not affect empty (sub)titles.
      4.  
    4. If the border is not set, or set to none/hidden, the (sub)title is not shown.
      5.  
    5. If the (sub)title alignment is on a side which does not have a border edge, the (sub)title will be flush to that side.
      6.  
    6. Naturally, (sub)title positioning is affected by padding.

    1. Border (sub)titles can contain nested markup.
      2.  
    2. Long (sub)titles get truncated and occupy as much space as possible.
      3.  
    3. (Sub)titles can be stylised with Rich markup.
      4.  
    4. An empty (sub)title isn't displayed.
      5.  
    5. The markup can even contain Rich links.
      6.  
    6. If the widget does not have a border, the title and subtitle are not shown.
      7.  
    7. When the side borders are not set, the (sub)title will align with the edge of the widget.
      8.  
    8. The title and subtitle are aligned on the left and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the rightmost character of the border edge.
      9.  
    9. The title and subtitle are centered and very long, so they get truncated and are centered with one character of padding on each side.
      10.  
    10. The title and subtitle are aligned on the right and very long, so they get truncated and we can still see the leftmost character of the border edge.
      11.  
    11. An auxiliary function to create labels with border title and subtitle.
      12.

    1. The default alignment for the title is left and the default alignment for the subtitle is right.
      2.  
    2. Specifying an alignment when the (sub)title is too long has no effect. (Although, it will have an effect if the (sub)title is shortened or if the widget is widened.)
      3.  
    3. Setting the alignment does not affect empty (sub)titles.
      4.  
    4. If the border is not set, or set to none/hidden, the (sub)title is not shown.
      5.  
    5. If the (sub)title alignment is on a side which does not have a border edge, the (sub)title will be flush to that side.
      6.  
    6. Naturally, (sub)title positioning is affected by padding.

    The margin specifies spacing around the four edges of the widget equal to the <integer> specified. The number of values given defines what edges get what margin:
     
       
    • 1 <integer> sets the same margin for the four edges of the widget;
      •  
    • 2 <integer> set margin for top/bottom and left/right edges, respectively.
      •  
    • 4 <integer> set margin for the top, right, bottom, and left edges, respectively.
      •  
     
    Tip
     
    To remember the order of the edges affected by the rule margin when it has 4 values, think of a clock. Its hand starts at the top and the goes clockwise: top, right, bottom, left.

    The opacity style sets the opacity of a widget.

    \nopacity: <number> | <percentage>;\n
     
    The opacity of a widget can be set as a <number> or a <percentage>. If given as a number, then opacity should be a value between 0 and 1, where 0 is the background color and 1 is fully opaque. If given as a percentage, 0% is the background color and 100% is fully opaque.
     
    Typically, if you set this value it would be somewhere between the two extremes. For instance, setting the opacity of a widget to 70% will make it appear dimmer than surrounding widgets, which could be used to display a disabled state.

    The style outline accepts an optional <border> that sets the visual style of the widget outline and an optional <color> to set the color of the outline.
     
    Unlike the style border, the frame of the outline is drawn over the content area of the widget. This rule can be useful to add temporary emphasis on the content of a widget, if you want to draw the user's attention to it.

    \npadding: <integer> # one value for all edges\n       | <integer> <integer>\n       # top/bot   left/right\n       | <integer> <integer> <integer> <integer>;\n       # top       right     bot       left\n\npadding-top: <integer>;\npadding-right: <integer>;\npadding-bottom: <integer>;\npadding-left: <integer>;\n
     
    The padding specifies spacing around the content of a widget, thus this spacing is added inside the widget. The values of the <integer> determine how much spacing is added and the number of values define what edges get what padding:
     
       
    • 1 <integer> sets the same padding for the four edges of the widget;
      •  
    • 2 <integer> set padding for top/bottom and left/right edges, respectively.
      •  
    • 4 <integer> set padding for the top, right, bottom, and left edges, respectively.
      •  
     
    Tip
     
    To remember the order of the edges affected by the rule padding when it has 4 values, think of a clock. Its hand starts at the top and then goes clockwise: top, right, bottom, left.
     
    Alternatively, padding can be set for each edge individually through the rules padding-top, padding-right, padding-bottom, and padding-left, respectively.

    \ntext-opacity: <number> | <percentage>;\n
     
    The text opacity of a widget can be set as a <number> or a <percentage>. If given as a number, then text-opacity should be a value between 0 and 1, where 0 makes the foreground color match the background (effectively making text invisible) and 1 will display text as normal. If given as a percentage, 0% will result in invisible text, and 100% will display fully opaque text.
     
    Typically, if you set this value it would be somewhere between the two extremes. For instance, setting text-opacity to 70% would result in slightly faded text. Setting it to 0.3 would result in very dim text.

    Be careful not to set text opacity so low as to make it hard to read.

    The example below shows a grid with 10 labels laid out in a grid with 5 rows and 2 columns.
     
    We set grid-rows: 1fr 6 25%. Because there are more rows than scalars in the style definition, the scalars will be reused:
     
       
    • rows 1 and 4 have height 1fr;
      •

    The grid-size style sets the number of columns and rows in a grid layout.

    When adding a row to the table, you can supply a key to add_row. A key is a unique identifier for that row. If you don't supply a key, Textual will generate one for you and return it from add_row. This key can later be used to reference the row, regardless of its current position in the table.
     
    When working with data from a database, for example, you may wish to set the row key to the primary key of the data to ensure uniqueness. The method add_column also accepts a key argument and works similarly.
     
    Keys are important because cells in a data table can change location due to factors like row deletion and sorting. Thus, using keys instead of coordinates allows us to refer to data without worrying about its current location in the table.
     
    If you want to change the table based solely on coordinates, you can use the coordinate_to_cell_key method to convert a coordinate to a cell key, which is a (row_key, column_key) pair.
    "},{"location":"widgets/data_table/#cursors","title":"Cursors","text":"
    The coordinate of the cursor is exposed via the cursor_coordinate reactive attribute. Three types of cursors are supported: cell, row, and column. Change the cursor type by assigning to the cursor_type reactive attribute.

    The DataTable can be sorted using the sort method. In order to sort your data by a column, you must have supplied a key to the add_column method when you added it. You can then pass this key to the sort method to sort by that column. Additionally, you can sort by multiple columns by passing multiple keys to sort.

    A \"label\" can be attached to a row using the add_row method. This will add an extra column to the left of the table which the cursor cannot interact with.

    You can supply one or more validators to the Input widget to validate the value.
     
    All the supplied validators will run when the value changes, the Input is submitted, or focus moves out of the Input. The values \"changed\", \"submitted\", and \"blur\", can be passed as an iterable to the Input parameter validate_on to request that validation occur only on the respective mesages. (See InputValidationOn and Input.validate_on.) For example, the code below creates an Input widget that only gets validated when the value is submitted explicitly:
     
    input = Input(validate_on=[\"submitted\"])\n
     
    Validation is considered to have failed if any of the validators fail.
     
    You can check whether the validation succeeded or failed inside an Input.Changed or Input.Submitted handler by looking at the validation_result attribute on these events.
     
    In the example below, we show how to combine multiple validators and update the UI to tell the user why validation failed. Click the tabs to see the output for validation failures and successes.

    1. Number is a built-in Validator. It checks that the value in the Input is a valid number, and optionally can check that it falls within a range.
      2.  
    2. Function lets you quickly define custom validation constraints. In this case, we check the value in the Input is even.
      3.  
    3. Palindrome is a custom Validator defined below.
      4.  
    4. The Input.Changed event has a validation_result attribute which contains information about the validation that occurred when the value changed.
      5.  
    5. Here's how we can implement a custom validator which checks if a string is a palindrome. Note how the description passed into self.failure corresponds to the message seen on UI.
      6.  
    6. Textual offers default styling for the -invalid CSS class (a red border), which is automatically applied to Input when validation fails. We can also provide custom styling for the -valid class, as seen here. In this case, we add a green border around the Input to indicate successful validation.

    A Select widget is a compact control to allow the user to select between a number of possible options.
     
       
    •  Focusable
      •  
    •  Container
      •  
     
    The options in a select control may be passed in to the constructor or set later with set_options. Options should be given as a sequence of tuples consisting of two values: the first is the string (or Rich Renderable) to display in the control and list of options, the second is the value of option.
     
    The value of the currently selected option is stored in the value attribute of the widget, and the value attribute of the Changed message.
    "},{"location":"widgets/select/#typing","title":"Typing","text":"
    The Select control is a typing Generic which allows you to set the type of the option values. For instance, if the data type for your values is an integer, you would type the widget as follows:
     
    options = [(\"First\", 1), (\"Second\", 2)]\nmy_select: Select[int] =  Select(options)\n
     
    Note
     
    Typing is entirely optional.

    The example below illustrates the relationship between the data, its length, the width of the sparkline, and the number of bars displayed.
     
    Tip
     
    The sparkline data is split into equally-sized chunks. Each chunk is represented by a bar and the width of the sparkline dictates how many bars there are.

    1. We have 12 data points.
      2.  
    2. This sparkline will have its width set to 3 via CSS.
      3.  
    3. The data (12 numbers) will be split across 3 bars, so 4 data points are associated with each bar.
      4.  
    4. Each bar will represent its largest value. The largest value of each chunk is 2, 4, and 8, respectively. That explains why the first bar is half the height of the second and the second bar is half the height of the third.
      5.  
     
    Screen {\nalign: center middle;\n}\nSparkline {\nwidth: 3;  /* (1)! */\nmargin: 2;\n}\n

    Construct a Tabs widget with strings or Text objects as positional arguments, which will set the labels in the tabs. Here's an example with three tabs:
     
    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Tabs(\"First tab\", \"Second tab\", Text.from_markup(\"[u]Third[/u] tab\"))\n
     
    This will create Tab widgets internally, with auto-incrementing id attributes (\"tab-1\", \"tab-2\" etc). You can also supply Tab objects directly in the constructor, which will allow you to explicitly set an id. Here's an example:
     
    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:\nyield Tabs(\nTab(\"First tab\", id=\"one\"),\nTab(\"Second tab\", id=\"two\"),\n)\n
     
    When the user switches to a tab by clicking or pressing keys, then Tabs will send a Tabs.TabActivated message which contains the tab that was activated. You can then use event.tab.id attribute to perform any related actions.

    You can customize the style of Toasts by targeting the Toast CSS type. For example:
     
    Toast {\npadding: 3;\n}\n
     
    The three severity levels also have corresponding classes, allowing you to target the different styles of notification. They are:
     
       
    • -information
      •  
    • -warning
      •  
    • -error
      •  
     
    If you wish to tailor the notifications for your application you can add rules to your CSS like this:
     
    Toast.-information {\n/* Styling here. */\n}\nToast.-warning {\n/* Styling here. */\n}\nToast.-error {\n/* Styling here. */\n}\n
     
    You can customize just the title wih the toast--title class. The following would make the title italic for an information toast:
