XtermTerminalView class

A TerminalView backed by xterm.js. Requires the xterm UMD bundle + fit addon to be loaded on the page (see web/index.html; tool/copy_assets.dart installs them into a consuming app).

Implemented types

Constructors

XtermTerminalView(HTMLElement parent, {XtermTheme theme = XtermTheme.omnyShell, int fontSize = 13, String fontFamily = defaultFontFamily, int scrollback = 5000})
Creates the terminal inside parent and fits it to the container.

Properties

hashCode int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
runtimeType Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
selection String
The currently selected text (empty when there is no selection).
no setteroverride
size → ({int cols, int rows})
Current terminal size in columns/rows.
no setteroverride

Methods

cancelAutoFit() → void
Cancels the deferred initial auto-fit. The session screen calls this in fixed-dimension mode, where it pins the columns/rows itself and the fit addon would otherwise override them once these timers fire.
clearSelection() → void
Clears any active selection.
override
dispose() → void
Disposes the terminal and detaches listeners.
override
fit() → void
Refits the terminal to its container (call after layout/resize). Safe to call before the container has a measurable size — fit failures are ignored.
focus() → void
Gives the terminal keyboard focus.
override
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
onInput(void handler(String data)) → void
Registers handler for user keystrokes (xterm delivers a decoded string).
override
onResize(void handler(int cols, int rows)) → void
Registers handler for terminal resize (new column/row counts).
override
refresh() → void
Forces a redraw of every visible row (the canvas can go stale after a layout change such as exiting fullscreen).
resize(int cols, int rows) → void
Pins the terminal to an explicit cols×rows (no-op in xterm when unchanged, so it won't spuriously fire a resize event). Guarded like the other JS calls in case it lands on a not-yet-ready or disposed terminal.
scrollToBottom() → void
Scrolls the viewport to the bottom (the latest output / prompt).
override
setFontSize(int px) → void
Sets the rendered font size in CSS pixels. Re-renders glyphs at the new size but does not change the column/row count on its own — only fit or resize do — which is exactly what a fixed-dimension session needs.
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
write(List<int> bytes) → void
Writes raw output bytes to the terminal.
override
writeText(String text) → void
Writes a UTF-8 text line (used for local status notices).

Operators

operator ==(Object other) bool
The equality operator.

Constants

defaultFontFamily → const String
The default monospace stack — the system's own, so no font is shipped.
