vt102 is an in memory vt1xx terminal emulator. It supports all the most common terminal escape sequences, including text attributes and color.
It's an in memory vt1XX-compatible terminal emulator. The XX stands for a series video terminals, developed by DEC between 1970 and 1995. The first, and most famous one, was VT100 terminal, which is now a de-facto standard for all virtual terminal emulators. vt102 is one such emulator.
Why would you want to use a terminal emulator?
- Screen scraping some terminal or curses app.
- Writing your own graphical terminal emulator.
- ... seriously, that's about it.
Installation from pypi:
pip install vt102
Installation from source:
git clone https://github.com/samfoo/vt102.git
cd vt102 && python setup.py install
There are two important classes in vt102: screen and stream. The screen is the terminal screen emulator. It maintains an in-memory buffer of text and text-attributes to display on screen.
The stream is the stream processor. It manages the state of the input and dispatches events to anything that's listening about things that are going on. Events are things like 'linefeed', 'print "a"', or 'cursor-position 10,10'. See the API for more details.
In general, if you just want to know what's being displayed on screen you can do something like the following:
>>> import vt102
>>> stream = vt102.stream()
>>> screen = vt102.screen((24,80))
>>> screen.attach(stream)
>>> stream.process(u"\u001b7\u001b[?47h\u001b)0\u001b[H\u001b[2J\u001b[H" +
