Ports the macOS-specific Zig code behind cfg(target_os = "macos"):
- renderer: a GraphicsApi trait with generic::Renderer<G>; Metal backend
(all renderer/metal/* files, shaders.metal verbatim, runtime library
compile, IOSurface layer, CVDisplayLink), shadertoy -> MSL via naga;
OpenGL remains the backend elsewhere.
- font: CoreText face, shaper and discovery with build.rs backend
selection (coretext default; coretext-freetype / coretext-harfbuzz /
coretext-noshape features), no fontconfig/freetype/harfbuzz on Apple.
- input: KeymapDarwin via UCKeyTranslate, option-as-alt, mac keycodes.
- os: macos, mach, cf_release_thread, NSProcessInfo args and macOS
branches; config: macOS defaults, keybinds, Application Support paths.
- termio/core: login(1) wrapping, openpty/execvpe, Darwin child exit
handling, os_log logging.
Compile-checked for aarch64/x86_64-apple-darwin (clippy -D warnings
clean) using the cross setup in docs/rewrite/notes/macos-M1.md; cannot
run here. The embedded runtime/C API (embedded.zig) is the next step.
Also includes the cross-platform integration edits shared by the crash,
verification, Windows and macOS work (Cargo target-gating, thread
crash-context hooks, apprt-gtk surface/IME refactor, termio/os cfg
gates), a cfg fix so ghostty-config builds on wasm32, and an allow for
the intentional recursion in the crash overflow test.
Test Plan:
- cargo test --workspace (3224 passed)
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
- cargo check --target aarch64-apple-darwin -p ghostty-renderer (with
the documented cross env)
rustfmt.toml sets group_imports, imports_granularity and imports_layout,
which are nightly-only; agents formatted with stable rustfmt, which
ignored them. This is a formatting-only pass with `cargo +nightly fmt`.
Test Plan:
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
- cargo test --workspace
Ports renderer/{generic,cell,row,link,State,Overlay,image,Thread}.zig:
- generic.rs builds GPU cell buffers from terminal RenderState each
frame: backgrounds, shaped text runs with glyph atlases and nerd font
constraints, all cursor styles, decorations via sprites, selection and
search colors, min-contrast, bold/faint/blink handling, preedit,
padding extension, background image, custom shader uniforms, link
hover underlines, scrollbar and health reporting.
- The renderer thread updates CPU-side state only and asks the host to
redraw; the app runtime calls draw_frame from the GLArea render signal
(the GL context lives on the GTK thread, as in Ghostty).
- ghostty_renderer::state::{State, SharedState} is the canonical shared
renderer state (termio's interim copy will switch to it).
Deviations: overlay uses a direct RGBA rasterizer instead of z2d; bg
images decode with png/jpeg-decoder instead of wuffs; zero-length link
matches advance by one char (Zig would loop forever).
Kitty image rendering is implemented in image::State but not yet called
from generic::update_kitty (raced with the terminal-side wiring).
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-renderer (69 unit + 9 headless EGL tests that
render a Terminal through the full pipeline and check pixels)
