X11 TypeScript Bindings.
Wip, although probably already quite usable.
Works in Node and browser.
Originally created for use in Greenfield.
yarn install
example:
import { connect, EventMask, WindowClass } from 'xtsb'
async function main() {
// create a new connection to the x server using the default environment variable DISPLAY
const connection = await connect()
// allocate a new windowId
const windowId = connection.allocateID()
// create a new window in a non-blocking way, we can optionally call 'check()' on the returned result so we receive a 'Promsise<void>' that can be 'await'ed.
connection.createWindow(
0,
windowId,
connection.setup.roots[0].root,
0,
0,
150,
150,
0,
WindowClass.InputOutput,
0,
{ eventMask: EventMask.StructureNotify }
)
// query the window child tree and wait for the reply
const queryTreeReply = await connection.queryTree(windowId)
console.log(queryTreeReply.parent)
// set the on destroy notify event listener
connection.onDestroyNotifyEvent = event => {
console.log(event.window)
}
// destroy the window and explicitly block & check if the request succeeded
await connection.destroyWindow(windowId).check()
}
main()MIT
