# Crate [Focusable](https://crates.io/crates/focusable)
A library for managing focusable elements in an application.
STATUS: Experimental - expect breaking changes.
This crate implements a generic focus handling approach for use in any application. This was
specifically crafted with the idea of providing a way to add focusable behavior widgets in
Ratatui, but does not depend on it.
Documentation is available at [docs.rs](https://docs.rs/focusable).
## Usage
```shell
cargo add focusable
```
And then implement or derive the [`Focus`] and [`FocusContainer`] traits for your types.
Inspired by [iced_focus](https://crates.io/crates/iced_focus) and
[rat-focus](https://crates.io/crates/rat-focus).
## Example
```rust
use focusable::{Focus, FocusContainer};
#[derive(Focus)]
struct Button {
is_focused: bool,
}
#[derive(Focus)]
struct TextBox {
is_focused: bool,
}
#[derive(Clone, Focus)]
struct Label;
#[derive(FocusContainer)]
struct App {
children: Vec<Box<dyn Focus>>,
}
let label = Box::new(Label);
assert!(!label.can_focus(), "Label should not be focusable");
let button = Box::new(Button { is_focused: false });
assert!(button.can_focus());
let text_box = Box::new(TextBox { is_focused: false });
assert!(text_box.can_focus());
let mut app = App {
children: vec![label.clone(), button, label, text_box],
};
app.focus_first();
assert!(app.children[1].is_focused()); // skip the first label
app.focus_next();
assert!(app.children[3].is_focused()); // skip the second label
```
