BUN UI

This is a library which is a javascript glfw binding and a tool for rendering graphs, plots and pie charts in javascript using bun or node(because bun fired me pretty disgustingly)

Explanation

This uses bun or nodes FFI api to create GLFW windows using a RGBA shader which can render buffers from a cpu, it further provides a api for various interactions with the window and functions to render plots and the likes.

Installation

Add this as a git based dependency.

Node

By default it only build the bun c library, to make it work for node cd into node_modules/bun-ui and run npm run build-node, which will build the required module, from there you can use the api normally.

Building Manually

You need CMake and a compiler which can compile C11. Then building is pretty easy.

> mkdir build
> cd build
> cmake ..
> make

API

Graph

import {graph} from "bun-ui";
// graph = (name:string, graphs: [[]number], markers: ?[][n:number, name: string], options: ?{width: number, height: number}): {canvas:Canvas, w: number, h: number}
const {canvas, w, h} = graph("Title", [[0.4, 0.2, 0.5, 0.1]], [[0, "0"], [1, "100"]]);

Plot

Colors is rgb 0-255

import {plot} from "bun-ui";
// plot = (name:string, bars: [number|[number, string]], markers: ?[][n:number, name: string], color: [number, number, number], options: ?{width: number, height: number}): {canvas:Canvas, w: number, h: number}
const {canvas, w, h} = plot("Title", [0.4, 0.2, 0.5, [0.1, "10%"]], [[0, "0"], [1, "100"]]);

Pie

Note that the addition of the values needs to end at 1

import {pie} from "bun-ui";
// pie = (name:string, parts: [number|[number, string]], options: ?{width: number, height: number}): {canvas:Canvas, w: number, h: number}
const {canvas, w, h} = pie("Title", [[0.4, "40%"], [0.6, "60%"]]);

Automap

Normalizes a range of values for plots

import {autoMap, plot} from "bun-ui";
// autoMap = (values: []number): [[]numbers, [[number, string]]]
const values = [3456,6345,2345,5756];
const [normalized, markers] = autoMap(values);
const {canvas, w, h } = plot("Plot", normalized, markers);

toWindow

Display a window based on a render, the promise resolves when the window is closed

import {toWindow, plot} from "bun-ui";
// toWindow = (title:string, in: {canvas: Canvas, w: number, h: number}): Promise<void>
const p = plot("Plot Title", [0.4, 0.2, 0.5, [0.1, "10%"]], [[0, "0"], [1, "100"]]);
await toWindow("Window Title", p);

toPNG

Export a render to a PNG and save it to the filesystem.

import {toPNG, plot} from "bun-ui";
// toPNG = (path:string, in: {canvas: Canvas}, background: ?string = "rgb(200, 200, 200)"): Promise<void>
const p = plot("Plot Title", [0.4, 0.2, 0.5, [0.1, "10%"]], [[0, "0"], [1, "100"]]);
await toPNG("foo/bar/out.png", p);

toJPEG

Export a render to a JPEG and save it to the filesystem.

import {toJPEG, plot} from "bun-ui";
// toJPEG = (path:string, in: {canvas: Canvas}, quality: ?Number = 0.95): Promise<void>
const p = plot("Plot Title", [0.4, 0.2, 0.5, [0.1, "10%"]], [[0, "0"], [1, "100"]]);
await toJPEG("foo/bar/out.png", p);

iterativeWindow

Display a window based on a render and a index, this is a "easy way" to update a exiting buffer of a window based on an index

import {iterativeWindow, plot} from "bun-ui";
// iterativeCallback = (index: number): {buffer: Buffer, w: number, h: number, index: ?number, type: ?"rgb"|"rgba"|"bgra"}
// iterativeWindow = (windowTitle:string, w: number, h: number, callback: iterativeCallback, initial_index: ?number = 1): Promise<void>

await iterativeWindow(
    "Window title",
    400,
    400,
    (givenIndex) => {
        const { canvas, w, h } = plot(
            "Plot Title",
            [1 / givenIndex],
            [
                [0, "0"],
                [1, "100"],
            ],
            [0, 50, 200],
            {
                width: 400,
                height: 400,
            },
        );
        return { buffer: canvas.toBuffer("raw"), w, h };
    },
    1,
);

easyWindowWithBounds

Easy wrapper for creating a single buffer window, toWindow uses this under the hood.

import {easyWindowWithBounds} from "bun-ui";
// easyWindowWithBounds: (name:string, buffer:Buffer, buffer_w: number, buffer_h: number, window_w: number, window_h: number, type: ?"rgb"|"rgba"|"bgra" = "rgba")
const { canvas, w, h } = o;
return easyWindowWithBounds(
    name,
    canvas.toBuffer("raw"),
    w,
    h,
    w,
    h,
    "bgra",
);

Window

Window is the underlying class on which all apis build upon, it gives you very low level control.

import Window, {plot} from "bun-ui";
/* 
class Window {
    constructor(windowTitle:string, windowWidth: number, windowHeight: number);
    setCloseCallback((): void): void;
    close(): void;
    setClearColor(red: number, green: number, blue: number): void;
    updateBuffer(buffer: Buffer, bufferWidth: number, bufferHeight: number, type: ?"rgb"|"rgba"|"bgra" = "rgba"): void;
    setKeyCallback(({key: number, scancode: number, action: number, mods: number}):void):void;
    setTextCallback((codepoint: number):void):void;
    setMousePositionCallback((x: number, y:number):void):void
    setMouseButtonCallback((button: number, action: number, mods: number):void):void
    setFocusCallback((window_focused:boolean):void):void
    setSizeCallback((width: number, height: number, xScale: number, yScale: number):void):void
    updateTitle(title:string):void;
    getClipboard():string;
    setClipboard(content: string): void;
    dangerouslyAwaitEvents():void // this will call into glfw blocking the main thread since the ui is executed on the main js thread.
    dangerouslyAwaitEventsTimeout(seconds: number):void // this will call into glfw blocking the main thread since the ui is executed on the main js thread.

    create():void;
}
*/
const window = new Window("Window title", 600, 400);
window.create();
window.setClearColor(200, 200, 200);
const { canvas, w, h } = plot(
    "Plot Title",
    [1 / givenIndex],
    [
        [0, "0"],
        [1, "100"],
    ],
    [0, 50, 200],
    {
        width: 400,
        height: 400,
    },
);
window.updateBuffer(canvas.toBuffer("raw"), w, h, "bgra");
window.setTextCallback(codepoint => {
    console.log(codepoint);
});

// do something else
window.close();
