This is the integration step that turns the ported crates into a working
terminal: `cargo run` now opens a GTK window running the user's shell.
ghostty-core ports App.zig, Surface.zig (split into keyboard, mouse,
binding, clipboard and config submodules), surface_mouse.zig and
global.zig, and implements the runtime traits. perform_binding_action
handles every binding action.
Cross-crate integration:
- The core<->runtime traits (CoreApp, CoreSurface, RtApp, RtSurface,
Waker) move from apprt-gtk into ghostty_apprt::runtime_api so the core
stays runtime-agnostic; Scrollbar/RendererHealth stand-ins are replaced
by the real terminal/renderer types.
- termio now uses ghostty_renderer::state::{State, SharedState}; the
renderer calls kitty_update; image-storage-limit is applied at init
and on config change.
- The search thread locks the terminal through a TerminalLock trait so
it can share the render state mutex; termio's Wakeup gained a hook to
wake the renderer thread.
- apprt-gtk: GL proc addresses are resolved through libepoxy's
epoxy_glFoo pointer variables (plain glFoo symbols resolved to null),
default DPI fixed to 96, libadwaita version read without GTK init so
--version works headless.
The root binary dispatches +actions to ghostty-cli (list-fonts,
show-face and new-window are now wired) and otherwise runs the GTK app
with the real core.
Verified at runtime on Wayland and X11: shell prompt and colored output
render, child exit closes the window cleanly. Not yet verified: keyboard
and mouse input, clipboard, IME, tabs and splits (no key injection was
possible in this environment). GHOSTTY_DEBUG_SCREENSHOT=<png> dumps the
renderer's last frame for headless checks.
Test Plan:
- cargo test --workspace (2890 passed)
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
- GSETTINGS_BACKEND=memory GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR=/usr/share/ghostty \
cargo run
Ports ZIG/src/cli into ghostty-cli: action detection/dispatch with
per-action --help, and the actions help, version, list-actions,
list-colors, list-keybinds, list-themes (plain listing plus an
interactive ratatui browser mirroring Ghostty's libvaxis UI),
show-config, validate-config, edit-config, crash-report (listing),
ssh-cache and boo (235 embedded frames).
Verified byte-for-byte against the installed Ghostty 1.3.1 for stdout,
stderr and exit codes of most actions, incl. tty output in a pty at
widths 20-200. Known differences: +list-colors --plain prints all 782
colors (Ghostty truncates at 617 because it never flushes), +version
has placeholder build info until build_info::set is wired up.
Deferred: list-fonts, show-face (need font discovery integration) and
new-window (needs GTK IPC); they return NotYetAvailable for now.
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-cli (86 tests)
- cargo run -p ghostty-cli --example cli -- +list-keybinds --plain
and diff against `ghostty +list-keybinds --plain`
