Quick Start:

import urwid

txt = urwid.Text(u"Hello World")
fill = urwid.Filler(txt, 'top') #'top', 'middle', 'bottom'
loop = urwid.MainLoop(fill)
loop.run()

Global Input

import urwid

def show_or_exit(key):
    if key in ('q', 'Q'):
        raise urwid.ExitMainLoop()
    txt.set_text(repr(key))

txt = urwid.Text(u"Hello World")
fill = urwid.Filler(txt, 'top')
loop = urwid.MainLoop(fill, unhandled_input=show_or_exit)
loop.run()

Display Attributes

import urwid

def exit_on_q(key):
    if key in ('q', 'Q'):
        raise urwid.ExitMainLoop()

palette = [
    ('banner', 'black', 'light gray'),
    ('streak', 'black', 'dark red'),
    ('bg', 'black', 'dark blue'),]

txt = urwid.Text(('banner', u" Hello World "), align='center')
map1 = urwid.AttrMap(txt, 'streak')
fill = urwid.Filler(map1)
map2 = urwid.AttrMap(fill, 'bg')
loop = urwid.MainLoop(map2, palette, unhandled_input=exit_on_q)
loop.run()

NtMszj.png
原图123.png
去掉‘bg’
NtMMdK.png
去掉‘streak’

解释：

txt， 最顶层，标签是‘banner’，获取palette中‘banner’的设置
map1， 和txt 一个道理。
txt 丢到map1， map1丢到 fill， fill丢到map2， 一层盖一层。

Question and Answer

import urwid

def exit_on_q(key):
    if key in ('q', 'Q'):
        raise urwid.ExitMainLoop()

class QuestionBox(urwid.Filler):
    def keypress(self, size, key):
        if key != 'enter':
            return super(QuestionBox, self).keypress(size, key)
        self.original_widget = urwid.Text(
            u"Nice to meet you,\n%s.\n\nPress Q to exit." %
            edit.edit_text)

edit = urwid.Edit(u"What is your name?\n")
fill = QuestionBox(edit)
loop = urwid.MainLoop(fill, unhandled_input=exit_on_q)
loop.run()

Signal Handlers

import urwid

palette = [('I say', 'default,bold', 'default', 'bold'),]
ask = urwid.Edit(('I say', u"What is your name?\n"))
reply = urwid.Text(u"")
button = urwid.Button(u'Exit')
div = urwid.Divider()
pile = urwid.Pile([ask, div, reply, div, button])
top = urwid.Filler(pile, valign='top')

def on_ask_change(edit, new_edit_text):
    reply.set_text(('I say', u"Nice to meet you, %s" % new_edit_text))

def on_exit_clicked(button):
    raise urwid.ExitMainLoop()

urwid.connect_signal(ask, 'change', on_ask_change)
urwid.connect_signal(button, 'click', on_exit_clicked)

urwid.MainLoop(top, palette).run()

Frames

urwid.Text

123.png
不能:
{Column, AttrMap} --> Mainloop

可:
{Filler, Frame } -> Mainloop

Column -> Filler  -> Mainloop
Text -> Filler  -> Mainloop
Column -> Filler -> AttrMap -> Mainloop
Text -> Filler -> AttrMap -> Mainloop

Frame

Frame(header=hdr, body=map2)
Text -> AttrWrap > header
Columns -> Filler -> AttrMap -> body

ListBox

Filler -> ListBox
Padding -> SimpleListWalker -> ListBox
[Text, Pile, Columns] -> SimpleListWalker -> ListBox
[Text, Pile, Columns]-> SimpleListWalker -> ListBox -> AttrWrap -> Frame

P-raw

##!/usr/bin/env python

import urwid

class PopUpDialog(urwid.WidgetWrap):
    """A dialog that appears with nothing but a close button """
    signals = ['close']
    def __init__(self):
        close_button = urwid.Button("that's pretty cool")
        urwid.connect_signal(close_button, 'click',
            lambda button:self._emit("close"))
        pile = urwid.Pile([urwid.Text(
            "^^  I'm attached to the widget that opened me. "
            "Try resizing the window!\n"), close_button])
        fill = urwid.Filler(pile)
        self.__super.__init__(urwid.AttrWrap(fill, 'popbg'))


class ThingWithAPopUp(urwid.PopUpLauncher):
    def __init__(self):
        self.__super.__init__(urwid.Button("click-me"))
        urwid.connect_signal(self.original_widget, 'click',
            lambda button: self.open_pop_up())

    def create_pop_up(self):
        pop_up = PopUpDialog()
        urwid.connect_signal(pop_up, 'close',
            lambda button: self.close_pop_up())
        return pop_up

    def get_pop_up_parameters(self):
        return {'left':0, 'top':1, 'overlay_width':32, 'overlay_height':7}


fill = urwid.Filler(urwid.Padding(ThingWithAPopUp(), 'center', 15))
loop = urwid.MainLoop(
    fill,
    [('popbg', 'white', 'dark blue')],
    pop_ups=True)
loop.run()

原来程序:
NtMTSJ.jpg
在 pop up 的框里面加一个退出按钮
结构解析:

close_button = urwid.Button("that's pretty cool")      #定义一个button 名称
urwid.connect_signal(close_button, 'click',          # button 的作用
                     lambda button:self._emit("close"))
pile = urwid.Pile([urwid.Text(                #一段文字,加上前面的button
    "^^  I'm attached to the widget that opened me. "      #pile 在一起
    "Try resizing the window!\n"), close_button])
fill = urwid.Filler(pile)                  #封装
self.__super.__init__(urwid.AttrWrap(fill, 'popbg'))    #完成

可以看出基本结构为, Button -> Pile + Button  ->  Filler
因此, 除了加入button title和 signal 外, 还需要在 pile处, 一起打包.
测试:

esc_button = urwid.Button("Esc")
urwid.connect_signal(esc_button, 'click',
    lambda button:self._emit("close"))
pile = urwid.Pile([urwid.Text(
    "^^  I'm attached to the widget that opened me. "
    "Try resizing the window!\n"), close_button,esc_button])

直接加的话, 按键会依次排列:

NtM7l9.png

Button 位置等属性

用 urwid.Padding(close_button, ‘left’, 18) 参数 调整button 位置, 结果一个上左, 一个右下
注: 18 为字符数

NtMtsI.png

这里用到一个新函数 ,参考来源:stackoverflow

urwid.Columns

基本用法:  urwid.Columns([button1, button2])

NtMNLt.png

def on_exit_clicked(button):
    raise urwid.ExitMainLoop()

## button, 加在上文 p-raw 的 9~11行之间
button = urwid.Button(u'Exit')
urwid.connect_signal(button, 'click', on_exit_clicked)

## button的排序, 加载urwid.Pile() 里面
urwid.Columns([
    urwid.Padding(close_button, 'left'),
    urwid.Padding(button, 'right', 8),
]),


完整代码:
pop-2

##!/usr/bin/env python

import urwid

def on_exit_clicked(button):
    raise urwid.ExitMainLoop()

class PopUpDialog(urwid.WidgetWrap):
    """A dialog that appears with nothing but a close button """
    signals = ['close']

    def __init__(self):
        close_button = urwid.Button("that's NOT COOL")
        urwid.connect_signal(close_button, 'click',
            lambda button:self._emit("close"))

        button = urwid.Button(u'Exit')
        urwid.connect_signal(button, 'click', on_exit_clicked)

        pile = urwid.Pile([urwid.Text(
            "^^  I'm attached to the widget that opened me. "
            "Try resizing the window!\n"),
            urwid.Columns([
                urwid.Padding(close_button, 'left'),
                urwid.Padding(button, 'right', 8),
            ]),
            ])
        fill = urwid.Filler(pile)
        self.__super.__init__(urwid.AttrWrap(fill, 'popbg'))


class ThingWithAPopUp(urwid.PopUpLauncher):
    def __init__(self):
        self.__super.__init__(urwid.Button("click-me"))
        urwid.connect_signal(self.original_widget, 'click',
            lambda button: self.open_pop_up())

    def create_pop_up(self):
        pop_up = PopUpDialog()
        urwid.connect_signal(pop_up, 'close',
            lambda button: self.close_pop_up())
        return pop_up

    def get_pop_up_parameters(self):
        return {'left':0, 'top':1, 'overlay_width':32, 'overlay_height':7}


button = urwid.Button(u'Exit')
urwid.connect_signal(button, 'click', on_exit_clicked)

pile = urwid.Pile([urwid.Padding(ThingWithAPopUp(), 'center', 15),button])
fill = urwid.Filler(pile)
loop = urwid.MainLoop(
    fill,
    [('popbg', 'white', 'dark blue')],
    pop_ups=True)
loop.run()

pop window size

修改这里就好了~

def get_pop_up_parameters(self):
    return {'left':0, 'top':1, 'overlay_width':32, 'overlay_height':7}

NtMaeP.jpg

魔改

左右各一个list:
将pile 放入column中

NtMBFS.png

把pop-2 的 51,52行改成

pile = urwid.Pile(body_A)
col = urwid.Columns([pile,urwid.Text("│"),('fixed',14,pile)])
fill = urwid.Filler(col)

bigtext.py

非常靓的一个NtMddf.jpg

排版区

# Create chars_avail
cah = urwid.Text("Characters Available:")
self.chars_avail = urwid.Text("", wrap='any')
ca = urwid.AttrWrap(self.chars_avail, 'chars')

chosen_font_rb.set_state(True) # causes set_font_event call

# Create Edit widget
edit = self.create_edit("", "Urwid "+urwid.__version__,
    self.edit_change_event)

# ListBox
chars = urwid.Pile([cah, ca])
fonts = urwid.Pile([urwid.Text("Fonts:")] + self.font_buttons,
    focus_item=1)
col = urwid.Columns([fonts,('fixed',16,chars)], 3,
    focus_column=1)
bt = urwid.Pile([bt, edit], focus_item=1)
l = [bt, urwid.Divider(), col]
w = urwid.ListBox(urwid.SimpleListWalker(l))

# Frame
w = urwid.AttrWrap(w, 'body')
hdr = urwid.Text("Urwid BigText example program - F8 exits.")
hdr = urwid.AttrWrap(hdr, 'header')
w = urwid.Frame(header=hdr, body=w)


Frame 排版结构124.png
继续魔改. 首先发现一个bug, 虽然说按F8 退出, 但是按完以后, 只出来一个 pop window, 写着quit, 然后, 就没有然后了. 所以我们先来加一个Esc 按钮吧~ (以后再说)
