Termino.Logging 1.0.1

TerminoUI

A very simple but cool looking and customizable text UI for your console tools.

Interface interaction

You only need 3 keys to interact with it: Up, Down, Enter. Use the Up and Down arrow keys to navigate through options, then press Enter to select an option.

Customization

If you are not satisfied with the default theme you can tweak it's options using the Termino.Models.Themes.TerminoTheme class.

Some of the customization options are:

• Colors (for title, options, currently selected option)
• Top margin
• Left margin
• Options indicator character
• Display/Hide cursor
• Loop navigation between options

Code Examples

Print a menu and return the selected option

// Create an instance of TerminoUI
var terminoUI = new TerminoUI();

// Print a menu to the user
terminoUI.PrintMenu(Menu.Create("Choose an action", "Action 1", "Action 2", "Action 3"));

// Process the user selected option
var actionAnswer = terminoUI.ReadUserInput().Name;
switch (actionAnswer)
{
    case: "Action 1":
        // TODO: Execute action 1
        break;

    case: "Action 2":
        // TODO: Execute action 2
        break;
}

Change default theme options

// Create an instance of TerminoUI
var terminoUI = new TerminoUI();

// Declare a theme with custom options
var theme = new TerminoTheme
{
    TitleForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.DarkYellow
};

// Set the theme
terminoUI.SetTheme(theme);

// Print a menu to the user
terminoUI.PrintMenu(Menu.Create("Choose an action", "Action 1", "Action 2", "Action 3"));
