25## How to use this crate:
26
27Designs of user interfaces are described in the `.slint` design markup language. There are three ways
28of including them in Rust:
29
30 - The `.slint` code is [inline in a macro](#the-slint-code-in-a-macro).
31 - The `.slint` code in [external files compiled with `build.rs`](#the-slint-code-in-external-files-is-compiled-with-buildrs)
32*/
33#![doc = i_slint_core_macros::slint_doc_str!(" - The `.slint` code is loaded dynamically at run-time from the file system, by using the [interpreter API](slint:rust:slint_interpreter/).")]
34/*!
35
36With the first two methods, the markup code is translated to Rust code and each component is turned into a Rust
37struct with functions. Use these functions to instantiate and show the component, and
38to access declared properties. Check out our [sample component](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent) for more
39information about the generation functions and how to use them.
40
41### The .slint code in a macro
42
43This method combines your Rust code with the `.slint` design markup in one file, using a macro:
44
45```rust,no_run
46slint::slint!{
47    export component HelloWorld inherits Window {
48        Text {
49            text: "hello world";
50            color: green;
51        }
52    }
53}
54fn main() {
55    HelloWorld::new().unwrap().run().unwrap();
56}
57```
58
59### The .slint code in external files is compiled with `build.rs`
60
61When your design becomes bigger in terms of markup code, you may want move it to a dedicated
62`.slint` file. */
63#![doc = i_slint_core_macros::slint_doc_str!("It's also possible to split a `.slint` file into multiple files using [modules](slint:modules).")]
64/*!Use a [build script](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/build-scripts.html) to compile
65your main `.slint` file:
66
67*/
68#![doc = i_slint_core_macros::slint_doc_str!("In your Cargo.toml add a `build` assignment and use the [`slint-build`](slint:rust:slint_build/) crate in `build-dependencies`:")]
69/*!
70
71```toml
72[package]
73...
74build = "build.rs"
75edition = "2021"
76
77[dependencies]
78slint = "1.16.0"
79...
80
81[build-dependencies]
82slint-build = "1.16.0"
83```
84
85Use the API of the slint-build crate in the `build.rs` file:
86
87```rust,no_run
88fn main() {
89    slint_build::compile("ui/hello.slint").unwrap();
90}
91```
92
93Finally, use the [`include_modules!`] macro in your `main.rs`:
94
95```ignore
96slint::include_modules!();
97fn main() {
98    HelloWorld::new().unwrap().run().unwrap();
99}
100```
101
102Use our [Template Repository](https://github.com/slint-ui/slint-rust-template) to create a skeleton file
103hierarchy that uses this method:
104
1051. Download and extract the [ZIP archive of the Rust Template](https://github.com/slint-ui/slint-rust-template/archive/refs/heads/main.zip).
1062. Rename the extracted directory and change into it:
107
108```bash
109mv slint-rust-template-main my-project
110cd my-project
111```
112
113## Generated components
114
115Exported component from the macro or the main file that inherit `Window` or `Dialog` is mapped to a Rust structure.
116
117The components are generated and re-exported to the location of the [`include_modules!`] or [`slint!`] macro.
118It is represented as a struct with the same name as the component.
119
120For example, if you have
121
122```slint,no-preview
123export component MyComponent inherits Window { /*...*/ }
124```
125
126in the .slint file, it will create a
127```rust
128struct MyComponent { /*...*/ }
129```
130
131See also our [sample component](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent) for more information about the API of the generated struct.
132
133A component is instantiated using the [`fn new() -> Self`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::new) function. The following
134convenience functions are available through the [`ComponentHandle`] implementation:
135
136  - [`fn clone_strong(&self) -> Self`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::clone_strong): creates a strongly referenced clone of the component instance.
137  - [`fn as_weak(&self) -> Weak`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::as_weak): to create a [weak](Weak) reference to the component instance.
138  - [`fn show(&self)`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::show): to show the window of the component.
139  - [`fn hide(&self)`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::hide): to hide the window of the component.
140  - [`fn run(&self)`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::run): a convenience function that first calls `show()`,
141    followed by spinning the event loop, and `hide()` when returning from the event loop.
142  - [`fn global<T: Global<Self>>(&self) -> T`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::global): an accessor to the global singletons,
143
144For each top-level property
145  - A setter [`fn set_<property_name>(&self, value: <PropertyType>)`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::set_counter)
146  - A getter [`fn get_<property_name>(&self) -> <PropertyType>`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::get_counter)
147
148For each top-level callback
149  - [`fn invoke_<callback_name>(&self)`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::invoke_hello): to invoke the callback
150  - [`fn on_<callback_name>(&self, callback: impl Fn(<CallbackArgs>) + 'static)`](docs::generated_code::SampleComponent::on_hello): to set the callback handler.
151
152Note: All dashes (`-`) are replaced by underscores (`_`) in names of types or functions.
153
154After instantiating the component, call [`ComponentHandle::run()`] on show it on the screen and spin the event loop to
155react to input events. To show multiple components simultaneously, call [`ComponentHandle::show()`] on each instance.
156Call [`run_event_loop()`] when you're ready to enter the event loop.
157
158The generated component struct acts as a handle holding a strong reference (similar to an `Rc`). The `Clone` trait is
159not implemented. Instead you need to make explicit [`ComponentHandle::clone_strong`] and [`ComponentHandle::as_weak`]
160calls. A strong reference should not be captured by the closures given to a callback, as this would produce a reference
161loop and leak the component. Instead, the callback function should capture a weak component.
162
163## Threading and Event-loop
164
165For platform-specific reasons, the event loop must run in the main thread, in most backends, and all the components
166must be created in the same thread as the thread the event loop is running or is going to run.
167
168You should perform the minimum amount of work in the main thread and delegate the actual logic to another
169thread to avoid blocking animations. Use the [`invoke_from_event_loop`] function to communicate from your worker thread to the UI thread.
170
171To run a function with a delay or with an interval use a [`Timer`].
172
173To run an async function or a future, use [`spawn_local()`].
174
175## Exported Global singletons
176
177*/
178#![doc = i_slint_core_macros::slint_doc_str!("When you export a [global singleton](slint:globals) from the main file,")]
179/*! it is also generated with the exported name. Like the main component, the generated struct have
180inherent method to access the properties and callback:
181
182For each property
183  - A setter: `fn set_<property_name>(&self, value: <PropertyType>)`
184  - A getter: `fn get_<property_name>(&self) -> <PropertyType>`
185
186For each callback
187  - `fn invoke_<callback_name>(&self, <CallbackArgs>) -> <ReturnValue>` to invoke the callback
188  - `fn on_<callback_name>(&self, callback: impl Fn(<CallbackArgs>) + 'static)` to set the callback handler.
189
190The global can be accessed with the [`ComponentHandle::global()`] function, or with [`Global::get()`]
191
192See our [sample global](docs::generated_code::SampleGlobal) for an example of the API of the generated global.
193See also the [documentation of the `Global` trait](Global).
194
195**Note**: Global singletons are instantiated once per component. When declaring multiple components for `export` to Rust,
196each instance will have their own instance of associated globals singletons.

273/// Spawns a [`Future`] to execute in the Slint event loop.
274///
275/// This function is intended to be invoked only from the main Slint thread that runs the event loop.
276///
277/// For spawning a `Send` future from a different thread, this function should be called from a closure
278/// passed to [`invoke_from_event_loop()`].
279///
280/// This function is typically called from a UI callback.
281///
282/// # Example
283///
284/// ```rust,no_run
285/// slint::spawn_local(async move {
286///     // your async code goes here
287/// }).unwrap();
288/// ```
289///
290/// # Compatibility with Tokio and other runtimes
291///
292/// The runtime used to execute the future on the main thread is platform-dependent,
293/// for instance, it could be the winit event loop. Therefore, futures that assume a specific runtime
294/// may not work. This may be an issue if you call `.await` on a future created by another
295/// runtime, or pass the future directly to `spawn_local`.
296///
297/// Futures from the [smol](https://docs.rs/smol/latest/smol/) runtime always hand off their work to
298/// separate I/O threads that run in parallel to the Slint event loop.
299///
300/// The [Tokio](https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/tokio/index.html) runtime is subject to the following constraints:
301///
302/// * Tokio futures require entering the context of a global Tokio runtime.
303/// * Tokio futures aren't guaranteed to hand off their work to separate threads and may therefore not complete, because
304///   the Slint runtime can't drive the Tokio runtime.
305/// * Tokio futures require regular yielding to the Tokio runtime for fairness, a constraint that also can't be met by Slint.
306/// * Tokio's [current-thread schedule](https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/tokio/runtime/index.html#current-thread-scheduler)
307///   cannot be used in Slint main thread, because Slint cannot yield to it.
308///
309/// To address these constraints, use [async_compat](https://docs.rs/async-compat/latest/async_compat/index.html)'s [Compat::new()](https://docs.rs/async-compat/latest/async_compat/struct.Compat.html#method.new)
310/// to implicitly allocate a shared, multi-threaded Tokio runtime that will be used for Tokio futures.
311///
312/// The following little example demonstrates the use of Tokio's [`TcpStream`](https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/tokio/net/struct.TcpStream.html) to
313/// read from a network socket. The entire future passed to `spawn_local()` is wrapped in `Compat::new()` to make it run:
314///
315/// ```rust
316/// // A dummy TCP server that once reports "Hello World"
317/// fn main() {
318///     # i_slint_backend_testing::init_integration_test_with_mock_time();
319///     use std::io::Write;
320///
321///     let listener = std::net::TcpListener::bind("127.0.0.1:0").unwrap();
322///     let local_addr = listener.local_addr().unwrap();
323///     let server = std::thread::spawn(move || {
324///         let mut stream = listener.incoming().next().unwrap().unwrap();
325///         stream.write("Hello World".as_bytes()).unwrap();
326///     });
327///
328///     let slint_future = async move {
329///         use tokio::io::AsyncReadExt;
330///         let mut stream = tokio::net::TcpStream::connect(local_addr).await.unwrap();
331///         let mut data = Vec::new();
332///         stream.read_to_end(&mut data).await.unwrap();
333///         assert_eq!(data, "Hello World".as_bytes());
334///         slint::quit_event_loop().unwrap();
335///     };
336///
337///     // Wrap the future that includes Tokio futures in async_compat's `Compat` to ensure
338///     // presence of a Tokio run-time.
339///     slint::spawn_local(async_compat::Compat::new(slint_future)).unwrap();

344/// }
345/// ```
346///
347/// The use of `#[tokio::main]` is **not recommended**. If it's necessary to use though, wrap the call to enter the Slint

564    //!
565    //! First, ensure that WGPU is used for rendering with Slint by using [`slint::BackendSelector::require_wgpu_29()`](i_slint_backend_selector::api::BackendSelector::require_wgpu_29()).

568    //! For rendering, it's crucial that you're using the same [`wgpu::Device`] and [`wgpu::Queue`] for allocating textures or submitting commands as Slint. Obtain the same queue
569    //! by either using [`WGPUConfiguration::Manual`] to make Slint use an existing WGPU configuration, or use [`slint::Window::set_rendering_notifier()`](i_slint_core::api::Window::set_rendering_notifier())
570    //! to let Slint invoke a callback that provides access device, queue, etc. in [`slint::GraphicsAPI::WGPU29`](i_slint_core::api::GraphicsAPI::WGPU29).
571    //!
572    //! To integrate rendering content into a scene shared with a Slint UI, use either [`slint::Window::set_rendering_notifier()`](i_slint_core::api::Window::set_rendering_notifier()) to render an underlay
573    //! or overlay, or integrate externally produced [`wgpu::Texture`]s using [`slint::Image::try_from<wgpu::Texture>()`](i_slint_core::graphics::Image::try_from).
574    //!
575    //! The following example allocates a [`wgpu::Texture`] and, for the sake of simplicity in this documentation, fills with green as color, and then proceeds to set it as a `slint::Image` in the scene.
