Overview

egui stylist

Note this project is considered to be experimental and -- while used in personal projects -- may have API breaking changes without warning until 0.1.0 where this repo will start following normal Cargo's Semantic Versioning for API changes.

This project is to help create reusable themes that can be serialized into and from egui. This way it should be much easier to track, design and skin egui natively inside of egui.

This library also strives to be embeddable into any existing application and was built with the intent of embedding itself as an editor script in Godot Engine leveraging godot-egui

While egui already has the ability to natively make changes to the settings directly by using Context::settings_ui() this is not necessarily optimal for theme creation. This tool seeks to optimize this process.

This library is available as a native application which can be built using cargo build or cargo build --release and run natively or embedded in a game engine, such as the sample available with godot-egui

Embedding in other applications

This library is built with egui and can be run as a widget in any egui application. To do so, include this application as a dependency in your Cargo.toml file and use the StylerState and EguiTheme types directly directly.

Road Map

Improve UX for the theme and font editor
Stablize the API for version 0.2.0
Enhance the Theme Previewer to move away from the using the Demo widget gallery and be more comprehensive
Theme inspector
Small set of selected default themes

Contributions

Contributions to should be made in the form of GitHub pull requests. I will be happy to review and include any additional changes that make sense for the project.

Please make sure to run cargo fmt and cargo clippy before submitting your pull requests. To keep the main repository as clean as possible, please also ensure that the repository has any warnings from the compiler fixed. Also, as egui does not require any use of unsafe at this moment, unsafe is considered to be forbidden

Comments

Investigate using snap to decrease stored theme sizes.
Snap may be a good format for the Egui-Theme to allow it to be compressible.

This should be a feature flag as it may not be necessary in all applications.

In addition to the necessary feature flags, the EguiTheme should store an extra field mentioning the version it was created with and whether or not it is compressed.

If the compression is not enabled for a compressed EguiTheme emit an error letting the parser know that it cannot decompress it without the feature flag, otherwise if compression is enabled it can optionally decompress if it is indicated to be compressed.

Tasks

[ ] Test to see space savings, no point in implementing it if there's no savings.

[ ] Determine if the runtime data can be stored as compressed memory.

[ ] Implement snap as feature flag

[ ] Implement additional meta-data to the Ron file.

[ ] Add all the compression information as an inner type.

egui version is outdated

egui has changed a few things around in 0.16 and will change a few more things like font families in 0.17 . this library doesn't work with egui 0.16 or the present master (0.17 in future) branch.

any chance that this will get updated to work with those versions?

I really like the style editor btw. feels so clean when editing a style.

Clean up dependencies

While it is currently fine one thing that is bothering me is that anyone embedding egui-stylist into an application will get stuck with all the other dependences like eframe/epi and rfd when building the library. Since this is essentially useless for anyone, I need to find someway to strip out those dependencies where possible.

Option 1 - Feature flags. I can create a feature called "native" or something like that which will be used to select conditionally compiled dependencies.

Option 2 - Strip the binary out of the egui-stylist crate entirely and put all that stuff into a "egui-stylist-native" crate where the dependencies are added. The dependencies would be "egui-stylist-native" depends on "egui-stylist" depends on "egui-theme" and then anyone using egui-stylist will only have egui as a dependency.

I'll give option 1 a try first since it would be the smallest code change. Option 2 will happen if I can't get it to work at all.

Theme output in wasm32

Currently wasm32 doesn't have support for saving due to rfd not supporting saving of files.

Instead wasm32 should allow for downloading. I need to figure out how to make this work.

Add a version tag to theme
This may break existing themes, but we can probably keep it optional. There should be a few optional tags that should be added to the themes. Themes should indicate which version of the theme they were created as, and it should be possible to convert older themes into newer theme formats.

I will need to do some research to determine how best to work on this.

[x] Research how this is generally done in specifications.

[x] Determine how to best support compatibility between versions in rust

[x] Add the necessary parameters to the EguiTheme struct.

Preview enhancements

The preview is currently just using most of the widget demo.

It needs some additional widgets, windows and other demo stuff so that you can get a better handle on just how the theme configuration is working.

In addition, it would be nice if you could watch the demo change as you tweak the settings.

Set up crate publishing CI task

See title. I don't want to do anymore crate publishing by hand. Using a CI runner will be the best way to ensure that I don't make any silly mistakes, like trying to publish the binary.

Support WASM32
Currently WASM32 is not supported due to no good way to save data. This will not be fixed before 0.1.0 as the native gui and the embeddable GUI are

[ ] Support wasm32 build

[ ] Support EguiTheme export in wasm32

[ ] Support EguiTheme importing in wasm32

Releases(0.2.0)

0.2.0(Jun 4, 2022)

The focus on this release is supporting egui 0.18 as well as reworking the EguiTheme format. This results in breaking changes that will require any exported fonts to be completely recreated. This should be the last time that this is required.

In addition egui-stylist has made the necessary changes to support the new text_styles formats and text option changes.

Supported version of egui is 0.18

0.1.1(Oct 30, 2021)

This release is intended to bump the version of godot-egui to v0.15.0

While there should be no API breaking changes, there is a change egui-themes created for egui 0.14.2, will have references to the old font that changed, they will need to be migrated using the new migrations module.

A migrations tool in egui-stylist will be released at a later date.

Stablized Egui Theme API with future migration support in mind.

Various bug fixes.

Better UX for the theme editor.
