Bubbles UI Components

Name: tessl/maven-com-williamcallahan--tui4j
Author: tessl

Bubbles is TUI4J's collection of pre-built UI components for creating rich terminal interfaces. All components implement the Model interface and can be used standalone or composed within larger applications. This document covers all available components with complete API signatures, configuration options, and usage examples.

Spinner

Animated loading spinner component.

package com.williamcallahan.tui4j.compat.bubbles.spinner;

class Spinner implements Model {
    // Constructors
    Spinner();
    Spinner(SpinnerType type);

    // Configuration
    void setType(SpinnerType type);
    Spinner setStyle(Style style);

    // Model implementation
    Command init();
    UpdateResult<Spinner> update(Message msg);
    String view();

    // State accessors
    int id();
    int tag();
    int frame();
}

enum SpinnerType {
    Line, Dot, MiniDot, Jump, Pulse, Points,
    Globe, Moon, Monkey, Meter, Hamburger
}

Basic Usage:

// Create default spinner
Spinner spinner = new Spinner();

// Create with specific type
Spinner dotSpinner = new Spinner(SpinnerType.Dot);

// Style the spinner
spinner.setStyle(Style.newStyle()
    .foreground("#00FF00")
    .bold());

// Use in a model
class LoadingModel implements Model {
    private final Spinner spinner;
    private final String message;

    public LoadingModel() {
        this.spinner = new Spinner(SpinnerType.Dot);
        this.message = "Loading...";
    }

    @Override
    public Command init() {
        return spinner.init();
    }

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        // Update spinner
        UpdateResult<Spinner> spinnerResult = spinner.update(msg);

        return UpdateResult.from(
            new LoadingModel(spinnerResult.model(), this.message),
            spinnerResult.command()
        );
    }

    @Override
    public String view() {
        return spinner.view() + " " + message;
    }
}

Spinner Types:

Line - Rotating line (- \ | /)
Dot - Animated dots
MiniDot - Smaller dot animation
Jump - Jumping animation
Pulse - Pulsing circle
Points - Animated points
Globe - Globe rotation
Moon - Moon phases
Monkey - Monkey animation
Meter - Meter bars
Hamburger - Hamburger menu animation

Integration Patterns:

// Spinner with timeout
class TimedLoadingModel implements Model {
    private final Spinner spinner;
    private final long startTime;

    @Override
    public Command init() {
        return Command.batch(
            spinner.init(),
            Command.tick(Duration.ofSeconds(5), id -> new TimeoutMessage())
        );
    }

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        if (msg instanceof TimeoutMessage) {
            return UpdateResult.from(new ErrorModel("Timeout"));
        }

        UpdateResult<Spinner> spinnerResult = spinner.update(msg);
        return UpdateResult.from(
            new TimedLoadingModel(spinnerResult.model(), this.startTime),
            spinnerResult.command()
        );
    }
}

Progress

Progress bar component with customizable appearance.

package com.williamcallahan.tui4j.compat.bubbles.progress;

class Progress implements Model {
    // Constructor
    Progress();

    // Builder methods
    Progress withWidth(int width);
    Progress withFull(char full);
    Progress withEmpty(char empty);
    Progress withFullColor(String color);
    Progress withEmptyColor(String color);
    Progress withPercentage(boolean show);
    Progress withPercentFormat(String format);

    // Model implementation
    Command init();
    UpdateResult<Progress> update(Message msg);
    String view();

    // State accessors
    double percent();

    // Message factory
    SetPercentMessage setPercent(double percent);
}

Basic Usage:

// Create and configure progress bar
Progress progress = new Progress()
    .withWidth(40)
    .withFull('█')
    .withEmpty('░')
    .withFullColor("#00FF00")
    .withEmptyColor("#333333")
    .withPercentage(true)
    .withPercentFormat("%.1f%%");

// Use in a model
class DownloadModel implements Model {
    private final Progress progress;
    private final double downloadPercent;

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        if (msg instanceof DownloadProgressMessage download) {
            // Update progress
            UpdateResult<Progress> progressResult = progress.update(
                progress.setPercent(download.percent())
            );

            return UpdateResult.from(
                new DownloadModel(progressResult.model(), download.percent())
            );
        }

        return UpdateResult.from(this);
    }

    @Override
    public String view() {
        return "Downloading:\n" + progress.view();
    }
}

Configuration Options:

// Default ASCII progress bar
Progress simpleProgress = new Progress()
    .withWidth(30)
    .withPercentage(true);

// Custom characters
Progress customProgress = new Progress()
    .withWidth(50)
    .withFull('▰')
    .withEmpty('▱')
    .withFullColor("#00AAFF")
    .withEmptyColor("#666666");

// Hide percentage
Progress noPercentProgress = new Progress()
    .withWidth(40)
    .withPercentage(false);

// Custom percentage format
Progress formattedProgress = new Progress()
    .withWidth(40)
    .withPercentage(true)
    .withPercentFormat("Progress: %.0f%%");

Integration Example:

class MultiStepProgress implements Model {
    private final Progress progress;
    private final int currentStep;
    private final int totalSteps;

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        if (msg instanceof StepCompleteMessage) {
            int newStep = currentStep + 1;
            double percent = (double) newStep / totalSteps;

            UpdateResult<Progress> progressResult = progress.update(
                progress.setPercent(percent)
            );

            if (newStep >= totalSteps) {
                return UpdateResult.from(
                    new CompleteModel(),
                    Command.none()
                );
            }

            return UpdateResult.from(
                new MultiStepProgress(progressResult.model(), newStep, totalSteps)
            );
        }

        return UpdateResult.from(this);
    }

    @Override
    public String view() {

List Fuzzy Matching and Data Types:

package com.williamcallahan.tui4j.compat.bubbles.list;

// Rank - Result ranking for fuzzy matching
class Rank {
    int index;
    int score;
    int[] matchedIndexes;

    Rank(int index, int score, int[] matchedIndexes);
}

// FilteredItem - Item with ranking information
class FilteredItem {
    Item item;
    Rank rank;

    FilteredItem(Item item, Rank rank);
}

// FetchedCurrentPageItems - Result of fetching current page
class FetchedCurrentPageItems {
    List<Item> items;
    int startIndex;
    int endIndex;

    FetchedCurrentPageItems(List<Item> items, int startIndex, int endIndex);
}

// FetchedItems - Result of fetching items
class FetchedItems {
    List<Item> items;
    int totalCount;

    FetchedItems(List<Item> items, int totalCount);
}

Fuzzy Matching Utilities:

package com.williamcallahan.tui4j.compat.bubbles.list.fuzzy;

// Match - Fuzzy match result
class Match {
    String str;
    int index;
    int[] matchedIndexes;

    Match(String str, int index, int[] matchedIndexes);
}

// FuzzyFilter - Fuzzy string matching
class FuzzyFilter {
    static List<Match> filter(String pattern, List<String> candidates);
    static List<Match> filterWithLimit(String pattern, List<String> candidates, int limit);
}

Fuzzy Matching Usage:

// Filter items with fuzzy matching
List<Item> allItems = loadAllItems();
String searchTerm = "foo";

// Convert items to strings for matching
List<String> itemStrings = allItems.stream()
    .map(Item::filterValue)
    .toList();

// Perform fuzzy match
List<Match> matches = FuzzyFilter.filter(searchTerm, itemStrings);

// Create filtered items with ranks
List<FilteredItem> filteredItems = matches.stream()
    .map(match -> new FilteredItem(
        allItems.get(match.index),
        new Rank(match.index, calculateScore(match), match.matchedIndexes)
    ))
    .toList();

// Custom filtering with ranking
list.filteredItems((items, filter) -> {
    List<String> values = items.stream()
        .map(Item::filterValue)
        .toList();

    List<Match> results = FuzzyFilter.filterWithLimit(filter, values, 100);

    return results.stream()
        .map(m -> items.get(m.index))
        .toList();
});

class FileManagerModel implements Model {
    private final FilePicker filePicker;
    private final String operation;  // "open", "save", "delete"

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        if (msg instanceof KeyPressMessage keyMsg) {
            Key key = keyMsg.key();

            if (key.type() == KeyType.KeyEnter) {
                File selected = filePicker.selectedFile();

                return switch (operation) {
                    case "open" -> UpdateResult.from(
                        new FileOpenedModel(selected),
                        loadFile(selected)
                    );
                    case "save" -> UpdateResult.from(
                        new FileSavedModel(selected),
                        saveFile(selected)
                    );
                    case "delete" -> UpdateResult.from(
                        new ConfirmDeleteModel(selected),
                        Command.none()
                    );
                    default -> UpdateResult.from(this);
                };
            }
        }

        UpdateResult<FilePicker> result = filePicker.update(msg);
        return UpdateResult.from(
            new FileManagerModel(result.model(), operation),
            result.command()
        );
    }
}

Cursor

Cursor rendering for text input components.

package com.williamcallahan.tui4j.compat.bubbles.cursor;

class Cursor {
    // Mode control
    void setMode(CursorMode mode);

    // Rendering
    String view();
}

enum CursorMode {
    CursorBlink,   // Blinking cursor
    CursorStatic,  // Solid cursor
    CursorHide     // Hidden cursor
}

Usage:

// The Cursor class is typically used internally by TextInput and Textarea
// components. For custom text input, you can use it directly:

class CustomInputModel implements Model {
    private final Cursor cursor;
    private final String text;
    private final int cursorPos;

    public CustomInputModel() {
        this.cursor = new Cursor();
        cursor.setMode(CursorMode.CursorBlink);
        this.text = "";
        this.cursorPos = 0;
    }

    @Override
    public String view() {
        String beforeCursor = text.substring(0, cursorPos);
        String afterCursor = text.substring(cursorPos);

        return beforeCursor + cursor.view() + afterCursor;
    }
}

Cursor Modes:

// Blinking cursor (default)
cursor.setMode(CursorMode.CursorBlink);

// Static cursor (no blink)
cursor.setMode(CursorMode.CursorStatic);

// Hidden cursor
cursor.setMode(CursorMode.CursorHide);

Help

Key binding help display component.

package com.williamcallahan.tui4j.compat.bubbles.help;

class Help implements Model {
    // Constructor
    Help();

    // Model implementation
    Command init();
    UpdateResult<Help> update(Message msg);
    String view(KeyMap keyMap);
}

record Binding(Key keys, String help) { }

Basic Usage:

// Create help component
Help help = new Help();

// Define key bindings
KeyMap keyMap = new KeyMap()
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyUp), "Move up"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyDown), "Move down"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyEnter), "Select"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyEsc), "Cancel"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyRunes, new char[]{'q'}), "Quit"));

// Use in a model
class HelpfulModel implements Model {
    private final Help help;
    private final boolean showHelp;

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        if (msg instanceof KeyPressMessage keyMsg) {
            Key key = keyMsg.key();

            // F1 to toggle help
            if (key.type() == KeyType.KeyF1) {
                return UpdateResult.from(
                    new HelpfulModel(help, !showHelp)
                );
            }
        }

        return UpdateResult.from(this);
    }

    @Override
    public String view() {
        if (showHelp) {
            return help.view(keyMap);
        }

        return "Press F1 for help\n\n" + mainContent();
    }
}

Advanced Help System:

class ApplicationWithHelp implements Model {
    private final Help help;
    private final KeyMap mainKeyMap;
    private final KeyMap editKeyMap;
    private final String currentMode;

    @Override
    public String view() {
        // Show different help based on current mode
        KeyMap currentKeyMap = currentMode.equals("edit") ?
            editKeyMap : mainKeyMap;

        Style helpStyle = Style.newStyle()
            .border(StandardBorder.roundedBorder())
            .borderForeground("#00FF00")
            .padding(1);

        String helpText = help.view(currentKeyMap);

        return VerticalJoinDecorator.join(
            Position.Left,
            renderMainContent(),
            "",
            helpStyle.render(helpText)
        );
    }
}

// Define key maps for different modes
KeyMap mainKeyMap = new KeyMap()
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyUp), "Navigate up"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyDown), "Navigate down"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyEnter), "Select item"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyRunes, new char[]{'e'}), "Edit mode"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyRunes, new char[]{'q'}), "Quit"));

KeyMap editKeyMap = new KeyMap()
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyCtrlS), "Save"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyCtrlX), "Cut"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyCtrlC), "Copy"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyCtrlV), "Paste"))
    .add(new Binding(new Key(KeyType.KeyEsc), "Exit edit mode"));

Component Integration Patterns

Composing Multiple Components

class ComplexFormModel implements Model {
    private final TextInput nameInput;
    private final TextInput emailInput;
    private final Textarea bioTextarea;
    private final List countryList;
    private final int focusedComponent;  // 0-3

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        if (msg instanceof KeyPressMessage keyMsg) {
            Key key = keyMsg.key();

            // Tab to switch focus
            if (key.type() == KeyType.KeyTab) {
                return UpdateResult.from(switchFocus());
            }

            // Delegate to focused component
            Model focused = getFocusedComponent();
            UpdateResult<?> result = focused.update(msg);

            return UpdateResult.from(
                updateComponent(result.model()),
                result.command()
            );
        }

        return UpdateResult.from(this);
    }

    @Override
    public String view() {
        return VerticalJoinDecorator.join(
            Position.Left,
            "User Profile Form",
            "",
            nameInput.view(),
            emailInput.view(),
            "Biography:",
            bioTextarea.view(),
            "Country:",
            countryList.view(),
            "",
            "Tab: Next field | Enter: Submit"
        );
    }
}

Component State Management

class StatefulComponentModel implements Model {
    private final Spinner loadingSpinner;
    private final Progress downloadProgress;
    private final TextInput userInput;
    private final ViewState state;

    enum ViewState {
        INPUT, LOADING, DOWNLOADING, COMPLETE
    }

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        return switch (state) {
            case INPUT -> handleInputState(msg);
            case LOADING -> handleLoadingState(msg);
            case DOWNLOADING -> handleDownloadingState(msg);
            case COMPLETE -> handleCompleteState(msg);
        };
    }

    @Override
    public String view() {
        return switch (state) {
            case INPUT -> userInput.view();
            case LOADING -> loadingSpinner.view() + " Processing...";
            case DOWNLOADING -> "Downloading:\n" + downloadProgress.view();
            case COMPLETE -> "Complete!";
        };
    }
}

Responsive Component Layout

class ResponsiveLayout implements Model {
    private final Table table;
    private final List list;
    private final int terminalWidth;
    private final int terminalHeight;

    @Override
    public UpdateResult<? extends Model> update(Message msg) {
        if (msg instanceof WindowSizeMessage size) {
            // Rebuild components with new dimensions
            Table resizedTable = table
                .withWidth(size.width() - 4)
                .withHeight(size.height() - 10);

            return UpdateResult.from(
                new ResponsiveLayout(resizedTable, list, size.width(), size.height())
            );
        }

        return UpdateResult.from(this);
    }
}

Best Practices

Component Lifecycle: Always call init() on components in your model's init() method
Message Delegation: Delegate unhandled messages to child components
Immutability: Components return new instances on update - always use the returned model
Command Batching: Use Command.batch() when components need multiple commands
Focus Management: Manually manage focus for multi-component forms
Responsive Design: Update component dimensions on WindowSizeMessage
State Composition: Keep component state in parent model constructors
Error Handling: Check for null returns from selection methods
Performance: Use high-performance mode for large viewports
Accessibility: Always provide help text and keyboard shortcuts
