TTY library

This library contains functionality for working with TTY/PTYs and related formats and protocols.

Included:

• A ttyrec parser (extracts frames with payload and timing from ttyrec files)
• A VT100/ANSI Terminal Emulator. Parses escape codes, CSI, OSI etc commands
• An AsciiRenderer, to render Terminal buffers for replays and debugging
• Examples in examples/

How to use

composer install
ttyrec tty.log
# execute some commands, like ls, df, etc
exit
php examples/ttyrec-player.php

Notes

When starting this project I had no idea what I was getting in to. VT100 is an insane protocol. I'm keeping notes on things I'm learning along the way in NOTES.md

TODO / Next steps:

• Extract executed commands from tty sessions (initial goal of this project)
• Solid test-cases based on pre-recorded tty sessions
• Support more escape codes for coloring, scrolling and other more advanced use-cases
