rbonsai
This is a port of cbonsai
to rust. Check out the original
here
rbonsai
is a bonsai tree generator, written in Rust using crossterm. It creates
an ascii bonsai tree that is colored using your terminals color scheme. It is
also configurable via CLI arguments - see usage. It can print a static
tree to your terminal, or you can watch it grow live. There is also a screensaver
mode to repeatedly grow trees!
Installation
rbonsai
is available on crates.io. To install with Cargo:
cargo install rbonsai --locked
Usage
Usage: rbonsai [OPTIONS]
Options:
-l, --live Whether the tree generation should pause after each step to allow the user to watch it grow
-t, --time <TIME> In live mode, wait time in seconds between each step of growth [default: 0.03]
-i, --infinite Infinite mode: keep growing trees
-w, --wait <WAIT> In infinite mode, the wait time in seconds between each tree [default: 4]
-S, --screensaver Screensaver mode: equivalent to -li and quit on any keypress
-m, --message <MESSAGE> Attach message next to tree
-b, --base <BASE> Ascii art plant base to use [default: 1]
-M, --multiplier <MULTIPLIER> The branch multiplier; higher -> less branches [default: 3]
-L, --life <LIFE> The starting life of the tree higher -> bigger tree [default: 32]
-p, --print The starting life of the tree higher -> bigger tree
-s, --seed <SEED> random number seed for reproducable trees
-v, --verbose Whether there should be debug prints
-h, --help Print help
-V, --version Print version
Add to .bashrc
For a new bonsai tree every time you open a terminal, add the following to the end of your ~/.bashrc:
rbonsai -p
Missing Features
rbonsai
does not have support for loading or saving to a file as of yet. It
also does not have support for providing your of leave characters.
Why Write This?
I had some issues installing cbonsai on one of my machines. I thought it was a cool algorithm and wrote this to learn more about it. Additionally, I wanted to use Crossterm for something to learn more about how it works. I also have plans for some newer features that I will add as soon as I complete the port of the original.
