Function Documentation

__extern ssize_t caca_import_canvas_from_memory (caca_canvas_t * cv, void const * data, size_t len, char const * format)Import a memory buffer into the given libcaca 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​. • "bin": import BIN files​. 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​. Parameters cv A libcaca 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​.
Returns The number of bytes read, or 0 if there was not enough data, or -1 if an error occurred​. Referenced by caca_import_area_from_memory(), and caca_import_canvas_from_file()​.

__extern ssize_t caca_import_canvas_from_file (caca_canvas_t * cv, char const * filename, char const * format)Import a file into the given libcaca 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​. • "bin": import BIN files​. 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​. caca_import_file() may also fail and set errno for any of the errors specified for the routine fopen()​. Parameters cv A libcaca canvas in which to import the file​.
filename The name of the file to load​.
format A string describing the input format​.
Returns The number of bytes read, or 0 if there was not enough data, or -1 if an error occurred​. References caca_file_close(), caca_file_eof(), caca_file_open(), caca_file_read(), and caca_import_canvas_from_memory()​. Referenced by caca_import_area_from_file()​.

__extern ssize_t caca_import_area_from_memory (caca_canvas_t * cv, int x, int y, void const * data, size_t len, char const * format)Import a memory buffer into the given libcaca canvas's current frame, at the specified position​. For more information, see caca_import_canvas_from_memory()​. If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set accordingly: • EINVAL Unsupported format requested or invalid coordinates​. • ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate canvas​. Parameters cv A libcaca canvas in which to import the file​.
x The leftmost coordinate of the area to import to​.
y The topmost coordinate of the area to import to​.
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​.
Returns The number of bytes read, or 0 if there was not enough data, or -1 if an error occurred​. References caca_blit(), caca_create_canvas(), caca_free_canvas(), and caca_import_canvas_from_memory()​.

__extern ssize_t caca_import_area_from_file (caca_canvas_t * cv, int x, int y, char const * filename, char const * format)Import a file into the given libcaca canvas's current frame, at the specified position​. For more information, see caca_import_canvas_from_file()​. 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 Unsupported format requested or invalid coordinates​. caca_import_file() may also fail and set errno for any of the errors specified for the routine fopen()​. Parameters cv A libcaca canvas in which to import the file​.
x The leftmost coordinate of the area to import to​.
y The topmost coordinate of the area to import to​.
filename The name of the file to load​.
format A string describing the input format​.
Returns The number of bytes read, or 0 if there was not enough data, or -1 if an error occurred​. References caca_blit(), caca_create_canvas(), caca_free_canvas(), and caca_import_canvas_from_file()​.

__extern char const* const* caca_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 caca_import_canvas(), and a string containing the natural language description for that import format​. This function never fails​. Returns An array of strings​.

__extern void* caca_export_canvas_to_memory (caca_canvas_t const * cv, char const * format, size_t * bytes)This function exports a libcaca 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​. • "troff": export a troff source​. If an error occurs, NULL is returned and errno is set accordingly: • EINVAL Unsupported format requested​. • ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate output buffer​. Parameters cv A libcaca 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​.
Returns A pointer to the exported memory area, or NULL in case of error​. Referenced by caca_export_area_to_memory()​.

__extern void* caca_export_area_to_memory (caca_canvas_t const * cv, int x, int y, int w, int h, char const * format, size_t * bytes)This function exports a portion of a libcaca canvas into various formats​. For more information, see caca_export_canvas_to_memory()​. If an error occurs, NULL is returned and errno is set accordingly: • EINVAL Unsupported format requested or invalid coordinates​. • ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate output buffer​. Parameters cv A libcaca canvas
x The leftmost coordinate of the area to export​.
y The topmost coordinate of the area to export​.
w The width of the area to export​.
h The height of the area to export​.
format A string describing the requested output format​.
bytes A pointer to a size_t where the number of allocated bytes will be written​.
Returns A pointer to the exported memory area, or NULL in case of error​. References caca_blit(), caca_create_canvas(), caca_export_canvas_to_memory(), and caca_free_canvas()​.

__extern char const* const* caca_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 caca_export_memory(), and a string containing the natural language description for that export format​. This function never fails​. Returns An array of strings​.
