Crate miniwrap

A wrapper around minifb that makes managing windows as simple as possible, with hexidecimal RGB rather than raw u32.

Window elements like buffers and dimensions are linked together in the WindowContainer struct. To keep the window alive, call update() from within a loop. This has a built-in graceful exit by pressing ESC.

let window = window!(?500, 500, "Window", "FFFFFF");

loop {
    window.update();
}

Heres an example of a UV map generated from pixel coordinates:

let window = window!(?500, 500, "Window", "FFFFFF");

//iterates with the value and position
for (_, pos) in window.iter() {
    let r = to_hex2(pos.0 as u8).unwrap();
    let g = to_hex2(pos.1 as u8).unwrap();
    let string = format!("{r}{g}00");

    window.set(pos, &string)?;
}

//pressing escape will close the window
loop {
    window.update();
}

Note with the hexidecimal conversions: functions that take hexidecimal will take a &str for convenience, but functions that return hexidecimal will return a String.

Macros

window

Initializes a WindowContainer. Optional background color. Begin with ? to unwrap.

Structs

WindowContainer

Contains a Window, pixel buffer, and properties.

Enums

WinErr

Errors concerning the WindowContainer.

Functions

from_hex8

Converts an (up to) 8-wide hexidecimal string to a u8.

hex_to_rgb

converts a 0F0F0F format hex string into a u32.

to_hex2

Converts a u8 to a 2-wide hexidecimal string, to concatenate into a RGB hex string. Note that this includes leading zero.

to_hex6

Converts a u32 to a 6-wide hexidecimal string. Note that this includes leading zeros.
