[][src]Crate relm

Asynchronous GUI library based on GTK+.

This library provides a Widget trait that you can use to create asynchronous GUI components. This is the trait you will need to implement for your application. It helps you to implement MVC (Model, View, Controller) in an elegant way.

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
gtk = "^0.6.0"
relm = "^0.16.0"
relm-derive = "^0.16.0"

More info can be found in the readme.

Macros

connect

Connect events to sending a message.

connect_async

Connect an asynchronous method call to send a message. The variants with $fail_msg will send this message when there's an error. Those without this argument will ignore the error.

connect_async_full

Like connect_async!, but also return a Cancellable to control the asynchronous request.

connect_async_func

Connect an asynchronous function call to send a message. The variants with $fail_msg will send this message when there's an error. Those without this argument will ignore the error.

connect_async_func_full

Like connect_async_func!, but also return a Cancellable to control the asynchronous request.

connect_stream

Connect events to sending a message. Similar to connect! but wants a stream instead of a component.

impl_widget

Dummy macro to be used with #[derive(Widget)].

Structs

Channel

A channel to send a message to a relm widget from another thread.

Component

Widget that was added by the ContainerWidget::add_widget() method.

ContainerComponent

Struct for relm containers to add GTK+ and relm Widgets.

DrawHandler

Manager for drawing operations.

EventStream

A stream of messages to be used for widget/signal communication and inter-widget communication. EventStream cannot be send to another thread. Use a Channel Sender instead.

Relm

Handle event stream to send messages to the update() method.

Sender

A wrapper over a std::sync::mpsc::Sender to wakeup the glib event loop when sending a message.

Traits

Container

Trait to implement relm container widget.

ContainerWidget

Extension trait for GTK+ containers to add and remove relm Widgets.

DisplayVariant

Format trait for enum variants.

Update

Trait for a basic (non-widget) component. A component has a model (data) associated with it and can mutate it when it receives a message (in the update() method).

UpdateNew

Trait for an Update object that can be created directly. This is useful for non-widget component.

Widget

Trait to implement to manage widget's events.

WidgetTest

Trait implemented by the generator to ease the creation of tests of relm widgets using the view! macro.

Functions

create_component

Create a new relm widget without adding it to an existing widget. This is useful when a relm widget is at the root of another relm widget.

create_container

Create a new relm container widget without adding it to an existing widget. This is useful when a relm widget is at the root of another relm widget.

execute

Create a bare component, i.e. a component only implementing the Update trait, not the Widget trait.

init

Initialize a widget.

init_test

Initialize a widget for a test.

interval

Emit the msg every duration ms.

run

Create the specified relm Widget and run the main event loops.

timeout

After duration ms, emit msg.
