Aspose.Barcode for Cloud is a REST API for barcode generation and recognition. It helps you generate barcode images from scratch in linear (1D), two dimensional (2D), and postal formats. Generate barcode images in a variety of image formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, TIFF and many others. Recognize barcodes from different image types. Aspose.Barcode for Cloud allows you to control all aspects of the image and barcode when generating barcode images. Specify image width, height, border style, output image format and more. You can also set barcode attributes like font style, font color, background color, barcode type and the barcode text location.
PDFBeads is a small utility written in Ruby which takes scanned page images and converts them into a single PDF file. Unlike other PDF creation tools, PDFBeads attempts to implement the approach typically used for DjVu books. Its key feature is separating scanned text (typically black, but indexed images with a small number of colors are also accepted) from halftone pictures. Each type of graphical data is encoded into its own layer with a specific compression method and resolution.
== Confidently Build Terminal Apps Rooibos[https://rooibos.run] helps you build interactive terminal applications. Keep your code understandable and testable as it scales. Rooibos handles keyboard, mouse, and async work so you can focus on behavior and user experience. gem install rooibos <i>Currently in beta. APIs may change before 1.0.</i> === Get Started in Seconds rooibos new my_app cd my_app rooibos run That's it. You have a working app with keyboard navigation, mouse support, and clickable buttons. Open <tt>lib/my_app.rb</tt> to make it your own. --- === The Pattern \Rooibos uses Model-View-Update, the architecture behind Elm[https://guide.elm-lang.org/architecture/], Redux[https://redux.js.org/], and {Bubble Tea}[https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea]. State lives in one place. Updates flow in one direction. The runtime handles rendering and runs background work for you. --- === Hello, MVU The simplest \Rooibos app. Press any key to increment the counter. Press <tt>Ctrl</tt>+<tt>C</tt> to quit. require "rooibos" module Counter # Init: How do you create the initial model? Init = -> { 0 } # View: What does the user see? View = -> (model, tui) { tui.paragraph(text: <<~END) } Current count: #{model}. Press any key to increment. Press Ctrl+C to quit. END # Update: What happens when things change? Update = -> (message, model) { if message.ctrl_c? Rooibos::Command.exit elsif message.key? model + 1 end } end Rooibos.run(Counter) That's the whole pattern: Model holds state, Init creates it, View renders it, and Update changes it. The runtime handles everything else. --- === Your First Real Application A file browser in sixty lines. It opens files, navigates directories, handles errors, styles directories and hidden files differently, and supports vim-style keyboard shortcuts. If you can do this much with this little code, imagine how easy _your_ app will be to build. require "rooibos" module FileBrowser # Model: What state does your app need? Model = Data.define(:path, :entries, :selected, :error) Init = -> { path = Dir.pwd entries = Entries[path] Ractor.make_shareable( # Ensures thread safety Model.new(path:, entries:, selected: entries.first, error: nil)) } View = -> (model, tui) { tui.block( titles: [model.error || model.path, { content: KEYS, position: :bottom, alignment: :right}], borders: [:all], border_style: if model.error then tui.style(fg: :red) else nil end, children: [tui.list(items: model.entries.map(&ListItem[model, tui]), selected_index: model.entries.index(model.selected), highlight_symbol: "", highlight_style: tui.style(modifiers: [:reversed]))] ) } Update = -> (message, model) { return model.with(error: ERROR) if message.error? model = model.with(error: nil) if model.error && message.key? if message.ctrl_c? || message.q? then Rooibos::Command.exit elsif message.home? || message.g? then model.with(selected: model.entries.first) elsif message.end? || message.G? then model.with(selected: model.entries.last) elsif message.up_arrow? || message.k? then Select[:-, model] elsif message.down_arrow? || message.j? then Select[:+, model] elsif message.enter? then Open[model] elsif message.escape? then Navigate[File.dirname(model.path), model] end } private # Lines below this are implementation details KEYS = "↑/↓/Home/End: Select | Enter: Open | Esc: Navigate Up | q: Quit" ERROR = "Sorry, opening the selected file failed." ListItem = -> (model, tui) { -> (name) { modifiers = name.start_with?(".") ? [:dim] : [] fg = :blue if name.end_with?("/") tui.list_item(content: name, style: tui.style(fg:, modifiers:)) } } Select = -> (operator, model) { new_index = model.entries.index(model.selected).public_send(operator, 1) model.with(selected: model.entries[new_index.clamp(0, model.entries.length - 1)]) } Open = -> (model) { full = File.join(model.path, model.selected.delete_suffix("/")) model.selected.end_with?("/") ? Navigate[full, model] : Rooibos::Command.open(full) } Navigate = -> (path, model) { entries = Entries[path] model.with(path:, entries:, selected: entries.first, error: nil) } Entries = -> (path) { Dir.children(path).map { |name| File.directory?(File.join(path, name)) ? "#{name}/" : name }.sort_by { |name| [name.end_with?("/") ? 0 : 1, name.downcase] } } end Rooibos.run(FileBrowser) --- === Batteries Included ==== Commands Applications fetch data, run shell commands, and set timers. \Rooibos Commands run off the main thread and send results back as messages. <b>HTTP requests:</b> Update = -> (message, model) { case message in :fetch_users [model.with(loading: true), Rooibos::Command.http(:get, "/api/users", :got_users)] in { type: :http, envelope: :got_users, status: 200, body: } model.with(loading: false, users: JSON.parse(body)) in { type: :http, envelope: :got_users, status: } model.with(error: "HTTP #{status}") end } <b>Shell commands:</b> Update = -> (message, model) { case message in :list_files Rooibos::Command.system("ls -la", :listed_files) in { type: :system, envelope: :listed_files, stdout:, status: 0 } model.with(files: stdout.lines.map(&:chomp)) in { type: :system, envelope: :listed_files, stderr:, status: } model.with(error: stderr) end } <b>Timers:</b> Update = -> (message, model) { case message in { type: :timer, envelope: :tick, elapsed: } [model.with(frame: model.frame + 1), Rooibos::Command.wait(1.0 / 24, :tick)] end } <b>And more!</b> \Rooibos includes <tt>all</tt>, <tt>batch</tt>, <tt>bubble</tt>, <tt>cancel</tt>, <tt>custom</tt>, <tt>deliver</tt>, <tt>exit</tt>, <tt>http</tt>, <tt>map</tt>, <tt>open</tt>, <tt>system</tt>, <tt>tick</tt>, and <tt>wait</tt> commands. You can also define your own custom commands for complex orchestration. Every command produces a message, and Update handles it the same way. ==== Testing \Rooibos makes TUIs so easy to test, you'll save more time by writing tests than by not testing. <b>Unit test Update, View, and Init.</b> No terminal needed. Test helpers included. def test_moves_selection_down_with_j model = Ractor.make_shareable(FileBrowser::Model.new( path: "/", entries: %w[bin exe lib], selected: "bin", error: nil)) message = RatatuiRuby::Event::Key.new(code: "j") result = FileBrowser::Update.call(message, model) assert_equal "exe", result.selected end <b>Style assertions.</b> Draw to a headless terminal, verify colors and modifiers. def test_directories_are_blue with_test_terminal(60, 10) do model = Ractor.make_shareable(FileBrowser::Model.new( path: "/", entries: %w[file.txt subdir/], selected: "file.txt", error: nil)) widget = FileBrowser::View.call(model, RatatuiRuby::TUI.new) RatatuiRuby.draw { |frame| frame.render_widget(widget, frame.area) } assert_blue(1, 2) # "subdir/" at column 1, row 2 end end <b>System tests.</b> Inject events, run the full app, snapshot the result. def test_selection_moves_down with_test_terminal(120, 30) do Dir.mktmpdir do |dir| FileUtils.touch(File.join(dir, "a")) FileUtils.touch(File.join(dir, "b")) FileUtils.touch(File.join(dir, "c")) inject_key(:down) inject_key(:ctrl_c) # Tests use explicit params to inject deterministic initial state. Rooibos.run( model: Ractor.make_shareable(FileBrowser::Model.new( path: dir, entries: %w[a b c], selected: "a", error: nil)), view: FileBrowser::View, update: FileBrowser::Update ) assert_snapshots("selection_moved_down") do |lines| title = "┌/tmp/test#{'─' * 107}┐" lines.map do |l| l.gsub(/┌#{Regexp.escape(dir)}[^┐]*┐/, title) end end end end end Snapshots record both plain text and ANSI colors. Normalization blocks mask dynamic content (timestamps, temp paths) for cross-platform reproducibility. Run <tt>UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1 rake test</tt> to regenerate baselines. ==== Scale Up Large applications decompose into fragments. Each fragment has its own Model, View, Update, and Init. Parents compose children. The pattern scales. The Router DSL eliminates boilerplate: module Dashboard include Rooibos::Router route :stats, to: StatsPanel route :network, to: NetworkPanel receive_events :ctrl_c, -> { Rooibos::Command.exit } only when: -> (_message, model) { !model.modal_open } do receive_events :q, -> { Rooibos::Command.exit } forward_events :s, to: :stats, as: :fetch forward_events :p, to: :network, as: :ping end Update = from_router # ... Model, Init, View below end Declare routes and event handlers. The router generates Update for you. Use guards to ignore messages when needed. ==== CLI The <tt>rooibos</tt> command scaffolds projects and runs applications. rooibos new my_app # Generate project structure rooibos run # Run the app in current directory Generated apps include tests, type signatures, and a working welcome screen with keyboard and mouse support. --- === The Ecosystem \Rooibos builds on RatatuiRuby[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev], a Rubygem built on Ratatui[https://ratatui.rs]. You get native performance with the joy of Ruby. \Rooibos is one way to manage state and composition. Kit is another. ==== Rooibos[https://www.rooibos.run] Model-View-Update architecture.

== Terminal UIs, the Ruby Way RatatuiRuby[https://rubygems.org/gems/ratatui_ruby] is a RubyGem built on Ratatui[https://ratatui.rs], a leading TUI library written in Rust[https://rust-lang.org]. You get native performance with the joy of Ruby. gem install ratatui_ruby {rdoc-image:https://ratatui-ruby.dev/hero.gif}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/app_cli_rich_moments/README_md.html] === Rich Moments Add a spinner, a progress bar, or an inline menu to your CLI script. No full-screen takeover. Your terminal history stays intact. ==== Inline Viewports Standard TUIs erase themselves on exit. Your carefully formatted CLI output disappears. Users lose their scrollback. <b>Inline viewports</b> solve this. They occupy a fixed number of lines, render rich UI, then leave the output in place when done. Perfect for spinners, menus, progress indicators—any brief moment of richness. require "ratatui_ruby" RatatuiRuby.run(viewport: :inline, height: 1) do |tui| until connected? status = tui.paragraph(text: "\#{spin} Connecting...") tui.draw { |frame| frame.render_widget(status, frame.area) } end end === Build Something Real Full-screen applications with {keyboard and mouse input}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/app_all_events/README_md.html]. The managed loop sets up the terminal and restores it on exit, even after crashes. RatatuiRuby.run do |tui| loop do tui.draw do |frame| frame.render_widget( tui.paragraph(text: "Hello, RatatuiRuby!", alignment: :center), frame.area ) end case tui.poll_event in { type: :key, code: "q" } then break else nil end end end ==== Widgets included: [Layout] {Block}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_block/README_md.html], {Center}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_center/README_md.html], {Clear (Popup, Modal)}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_popup/README_md.html], {Layout (Split, Grid)}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_layout_split/README_md.html], {Overlay}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_overlay/README_md.html] [Data] {Bar Chart}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_barchart/README_md.html], {Chart}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_chart/README_md.html], {Gauge}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_gauge/README_md.html], {Line Gauge}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_line_gauge/README_md.html], {Sparkline}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_sparkline/README_md.html], {Table}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_table/README_md.html] [Text] {Cell}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_cell/README_md.html], {List}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_list/README_md.html], {Rich Text (Line, Span)}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_rich_text/README_md.html], {Scrollbar (Scroll)}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_scrollbar/README_md.html], {Tabs}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_tabs/README_md.html] [Graphics] {Calendar}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_calendar/README_md.html], {Canvas}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_canvas/README_md.html], {Map (World Map)}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/widget_map/README_md.html] Need something else? {Build custom widgets}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/doc/concepts/custom_widgets_md.html] in Ruby! --- === Testing Built In TUI testing is tedious. You need a headless terminal, event injection, snapshot comparisons, and style assertions. RatatuiRuby bundles all of it. require "ratatui_ruby/test_helper" class TestColorPicker < Minitest::Test include RatatuiRuby::TestHelper def test_swatch_widget with_test_terminal(10, 3) do RatatuiRuby.draw do |frame| frame.render_widget(Swatch.new(:red), frame.area) end assert_cell_style 2, 1, char: "█", bg: :red end end end ==== What's inside: - <b>Headless terminal</b> — No real TTY needed - <b>Snapshots</b> — Plain text and rich (ANSI colors) - <b>Event injection</b> — Keys, mouse, paste, resize - <b>Style assertions</b> — Color, bold, underline at any cell - <b>Test doubles</b> — Mock frames and stub rects - <b>UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1</b> — Regenerate baselines in one command --- ==== Inline Menu Example require "ratatui_ruby" # This example renders an inline menu. Arrow keys select, enter confirms. # The menu appears in-place, preserving scrollback. When the user chooses, # the TUI closes and the script continues with the selected value. class RadioMenu CHOICES = ["Production", "Staging", "Development"] # ASCII strings are universally supported. PREFIXES = { active: "●", inactive: "○" } # Some terminals may not support Unicode. CONTROLS = "↑/↓: Select | Enter: Choose | Ctrl+C: Cancel" # Let users know what keys you handle. TITLES = ["Select Environment", # The default title position is top left. { content: CONTROLS, # Multiple titles can save space. position: :bottom, # Titles go on the top or bottom, alignment: :right }] # aligned left, right, or center def call # This method blocks until a choice is made. RatatuiRuby.run(viewport: :inline, height: 5) do |tui| # RatauiRuby.run manages the terminal. @tui = tui # The TUI instance is safe to store. show_menu until chosen? # You can use any loop keyword you like. end # `run` won't return until your block does, RadioMenu::CHOICES[@choice] # so you can use it synchronously. end # Classes like RadioMenu are convenient for private # CLI authors to offer "rich moments." def show_menu = @tui.draw do |frame| # RatatuiRuby gives you low-level access. widget = @tui.paragraph( # But the TUI facade makes it easy to use. text: menu_items, # Text can be spans, lines, or paragraphs. block: @tui.block(borders: :all, titles: TITLES) # Blocks give you boxes and titles, and hold ) # one or more widgets.

For larger return PREFIXES[:active] if choice_index == @choice # applications, consider using Rooibos, PREFIXES[:inactive] # an MVU framework built with RatatuiRuby. end # Or, use the upcoming ratatui-ruby-kit, # our object-oriented component library. def initialize = @choice = 0 # However, those are both optional, and end # designed for full-screen Terminal UIs. # RatatuiRuby will always give you the most choice = RadioMenu.new.call # control, and is enough for "rich CLI puts "You chose \#{choice}!" # moments" like this one. --- === Full App Solutions RatatuiRuby renders. For complex applications, add a framework that manages state and composition. ==== Rooibos[https://www.rooibos.run] (Framework) Model-View-Update architecture. Inspired by Elm, Bubble Tea, and React + Redux. Your UI is a pure function of state. - Functional programming with MVU - Commands work off the main thread - Messages, not callbacks, drive updates ==== {Kit}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-3-the-object-path--kit] (Coming Soon) Component-based architecture. Encapsulate state, input handling, and rendering in reusable pieces. - OOP with stateful components - Separate UI state from domain logic - Built-in focus management & click handling Both use the same widget library and rendering engine. Pick the paradigm that fits your brain. --- === Why RatatuiRuby? Ruby deserves world-class terminal user interfaces. TUI developers deserve a world-class language. RatatuiRuby wraps Rust's Ratatui via native extension. The Rust library handles rendering. Your Ruby code handles design. >>> "Text UIs are seeing a renaissance with many new TUI libraries popping up. The Ratatui bindings have proven to be full featured and stable." — {Mike Perham}[https://www.mikeperham.com/], creator of Sidekiq[https://sidekiq.org/] and Faktory[https://contribsys.com/faktory/] ==== Why Rust? Why Ruby? Rust excels at low-level rendering. Ruby excels at expressing domain logic and UI. RatatuiRuby puts each language where it performs best. ==== Versus CharmRuby CharmRuby[https://charm-ruby.dev/] wraps Charm's Go libraries. Both projects give Ruby developers TUI options. [Integration] CharmRuby: Two runtimes, one process. RatatuiRuby: Native extension in Rust. [Runtime] CharmRuby: Go + Ruby (competing). RatatuiRuby: Ruby (Rust has no runtime). [Memory] CharmRuby: Two uncoordinated GCs. RatatuiRuby: One Garbage Collector. [Style] CharmRuby: The Elm Architecture (TEA). RatatuiRuby: TEA, OOP, or Imperative. --- === Links [Get Started] {Quickstart}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/doc/getting_started/quickstart_md.html], {Examples}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/app_cli_rich_moments/README_md.html], {API Reference}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/], {Guides}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/doc/index_md.html] [Ecosystem] Rooibos[https://www.rooibos.run], {Kit}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-3-the-object-path--kit] (Planned), {Framework}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-5-the-framework] (Planned), {UI Widgets}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-6-licensing] (Planned) [Community] {Forum}[https://forum.setdef.com/c/ratatui-ruby/6], {Announcements}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/announcement], {Discussion}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/discussion], {Bug Tracker}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/bug] [Contribute] {Contributing Guide}[https://man.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/contributing.md], {Code of Conduct}[https://man.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/code_of_conduct.md], {Project History}[https://man.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/history/index.md], {Pull Requests}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/patch] --- [Website] https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev [Source] https://github.com/setdef/RatatuiRuby [RubyGems] https://rubygems.org/gems/ratatui_ruby [Upstream] https://ratatui.rs [Build Status] https://builds.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby © 2026 Kerrick Long · Library: LGPL-3.0-or-later · Website: CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0 · Snippets: MIT-0
