| __extern ssize_t | cucul_import_memory (cucul_canvas_t *, void const *, size_t, char const *) |
| Import a memory buffer into a canvas. | |
| __extern ssize_t | cucul_import_file (cucul_canvas_t *, char const *, char const *) |
| Import a file into a canvas. | |
| __extern char const *const * | cucul_get_import_list (void) |
| Get available import formats. | |
| __extern void * | cucul_export_memory (cucul_canvas_t const *, char const *, size_t *) |
| Export a canvas into a foreign format. | |
| __extern char const *const * | cucul_get_export_list (void) |
| Get available export formats. | |
These functions import various file formats into a new canvas, or export the current canvas to various text formats.
| __extern ssize_t cucul_import_memory | ( | cucul_canvas_t * | cv, | |
| void const * | data, | |||
| size_t | len, | |||
| char const * | format | |||
| ) |
Import a memory buffer into the given libcucul canvas's current frame. The current frame is resized accordingly and its contents are replaced with the imported data.
Valid values for format are:
"": attempt to autodetect the file format."caca": import native libcaca files."text": import ASCII text files."ansi": import ANSI files."utf8": import UTF-8 files with ANSI colour codes.The number of bytes read is returned. If the file format is valid, but not enough data was available, 0 is returned.
If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set accordingly:
ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate canvas.EINVAL Invalid format requested.
| cv | A libcucul canvas in which to import the file. | |
| data | A memory area containing the data to be loaded into the canvas. | |
| len | The size in bytes of the memory area. | |
| format | A string describing the input format. |

| __extern ssize_t cucul_import_file | ( | cucul_canvas_t * | cv, | |
| char const * | filename, | |||

| ) |
Import a file into the given libcucul canvas's current frame. The current frame is resized accordingly and its contents are replaced with the imported data.
Valid values for format are:
"": attempt to autodetect the file format."caca": import native libcaca files."text": import ASCII text files."ansi": import ANSI files."utf8": import UTF-8 files with ANSI colour codes.The number of bytes read is returned. If the file format is valid, but not enough data was available, 0 is returned.
If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set accordingly:
ENOSYS File access is not implemented on this system.ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate canvas.EINVAL Invalid format requested. cucul_import_file() may also fail and set errno for any of the errors specified for the routine fopen().
| cv | A libcucul canvas in which to import the file. | |
| filename | The name of the file to load. | |
| format | A string describing the input format. |
References cucul_import_memory().
| __extern char const* const* cucul_get_import_list | ( | void | ) |
Return a list of available import formats. The list is a NULL-terminated array of strings, interleaving a string containing the internal value for the import format, to be used with cucul_import_canvas(), and a string containing the natural language description for that import format.
This function never fails.
| __extern void* cucul_export_memory | ( | cucul_canvas_t const * | cv, | |
| char const * | format, | |||
| size_t * | bytes | |||
| ) |
This function exports a libcucul canvas into various foreign formats such as ANSI art, HTML, IRC colours, etc. The returned pointer should be passed to free() to release the allocated storage when it is no longer needed.
Valid values for format are:
"caca": export native libcaca files."ansi": export ANSI art (CP437 charset with ANSI colour codes)."html": export an HTML page with CSS information."html3": export an HTML table that should be compatible with most navigators, including textmode ones."irc": export UTF-8 text with mIRC colour codes."ps": export a PostScript document."svg": export an SVG vector image."tga": export a TGA image.If an error occurs, NULL is returned and errno is set accordingly:
EINVAL Unsupported format requested.ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate output buffer.
| cv | A libcucul canvas | |
| format | A string describing the requested output format. | |
| bytes | A pointer to a size_t where the number of allocated bytes will be written. |
| __extern char const* const* cucul_get_export_list | ( | void | ) |
Return a list of available export formats. The list is a NULL-terminated array of strings, interleaving a string containing the internal value for the export format, to be used with cucul_export_memory(), and a string containing the natural language description for that export format.
This function never fails.
