Hawktui

Hawktui is a simple and easy to use TUI (Terminal User Interface) library for Ruby. It is built on the curses library.

So far it includes a StreamingTable API and more APIs are planned.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "hawktui"

Run the following command to install it:

bundle install

StreamingTable

The Hawktui::StreamingTable API can be used to create a full screen table in your terminal that can be updated in real time. This is useful for displaying data that is constantly changing.

git clone https://github.com/jonmagic/hawktui
cd hawktui
