Xterm.js is a terminal front-end component written in JavaScript that works in the browser.
It enables applications to provide fully featured terminals to their users and create great development experiences.
bash, git etc.vim, tmux etc.bash. Xterm.js can be connected to processes like bash and let you interact with them (provide input, receive output)Xterm.js is used in several world-class applications to provide great terminal experiences.
xterm.js.xterm.js, socket.io, and ssh2.Do you use xterm.js in your application as well? Please open a Pull Request to include it here. We would love to have it in our list.
Since xterm.js is typically implemented as a developer tool, only modern browsers are supported officially. Here is a list of the versions we aim to support:
Xterm.js works seamlessly in Electron apps and may even work on earlier versions of the browsers but these are the browsers we strive to keep working.
Run the following commands:
$ npm install
$ npm start
Then open http://0.0.0.0:3000 in a web browser.
First, ensure node-gyp is installed and configured correctly, then run these commands.
Note: Do not use ConEmu, as it seems to break the demo for some reason.
> npm install
> npm start
Then open http://127.0.0.1:3000 in a web browser.
To start using xterm.js on your browser, add the xterm.js and xterm.css to the head of your html page. Then create a <div id="terminal"></div> onto which xterm can attach itself.
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="bower_components/xterm.js/dist/xterm.css" />
<script src="bower_components/xterm.js/dist/xterm.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="terminal"></div>
<script>
var term = new Terminal();
term.open(document.getElementById('#terminal'));
term.write('Hello from \033[1;3;31mxterm.js\033[0m $ ')
</script>
</body>
</html>
Finally instantiate the Terminal object and then call the open function with the DOM object of the div.
Addons are JavaScript modules that attach functions to the Terminal prototype to extend its functionality. There are a handful available in the main repository in the dist/addons directory, you can even write your own (though they may break when the internals of xterm.js change across versions).
To use an addon, just include the JavaScript file after xterm.js and before the Terminal object has been instantiated. The function should then be exposed on the Terminal object:
<script src="node_modules/dist/xterm.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/dist/addons/fit/fit.js"></script>
var xterm = new Terminal(); // init code... xterm.fit();
Xterm.js follows a monthly release cycle roughly.
The existing releases are available at this GitHub repo's Releases, while the roadmap is available as Milestones.
Development and ContributionXterm.js is maintained by SourceLair and a few external contributors, but we would love to receive contributions from everyone!
To contribute either code, documentation or issues to xterm.js please read the Contributing document before.
The development of xterm.js does not require any special tool. All you need is an editor that supports JavaScript and a browser (if you would like to run the demo you will need Node.js to get all features).
It is recommended though to use a development tool that uses xterm.js internally, to develop for xterm.js. Eating our own dogfood has been proved extremely beneficial for this project. Known tools that use xterm.js internally are:
Visit https://lair.io/sourcelair/xterm and follow the instructions. All development will happen in your browser.
Download Visual Studio Code, clone xterm.js and you are all set.
You can start Eclipse Che with docker run eclipse/che start.
You can create a trial account or install an enterprise version with docker run codenvy/cli start.
If you contribute code to this project, you are implicitly allowing your code to be distributed under the MIT license. You are also implicitly verifying that all code is your original work.
