Codewars TUI

➡ An interactive codewars terminal user iterface (TUI), to search, explore and download kata in a graphical way.

Purpose

• Learn rust
• Learn TUI design pattern
• Having fun

Installation

This TUI might not works (at all) on OS other than linux.

Build from source with cargo, or download an executable from the release page

cargo build --release # will creates a single executable for your os in ./target/release

Chromium must be installed in your pc!

• on linux just run:

sudo snap install chromium
# or
sudo apt update
sudo apt install chromium-browser

Made with:

1. Elegance ✅
2. RUST ✨🦀
3. tui-rs ♥ (awesome lib btw)
4. headless_chrome, automated browser for scrapping page that require JS loading (like selenium..., it's the reason why chromium must be installed)
5. go see Cargo.toml

Improvement roadmap

• message to user (e.g: "download successfully", "failed: reason"...)
• detailed view of kata with the use of the API
• DONE store the latest download path locally for future uses (setting page + editor terminal command)
• DONE search kata by id
• DONE fix rust bug when init cargo (output on screen)
• DONE dynamic text input with cursor
• DONE path input auto-completion on the path (with tab or idk) (>/< to change suggestion, Right to confirm)
• DONE in downloading windows, display the kata name to download
• DONE trim all special chars when created the kata folder
• DONE automatic projects init (e.g: for rust, run cargo init then delete .git folder)
