libghostty-rs

Building

  • Requires Zig 0.16.x on PATH and a Nix dev shell
  • Enter dev shell: nix develop
  • Check: cargo check
  • Test: cargo test -p libghostty-vt-sys
  • Build examples: cargo build --manifest-path example/Cargo.toml --workspace
  • Run example: cargo run --manifest-path example/Cargo.toml -p ghostling_rs
  • After bumping the crate versions, also run cargo update -w --manifest-path example/Cargo.toml: CI builds the examples with --locked, so a stale example/Cargo.lock fails it

Code Conventions

  • Root Rust workspace: libghostty-vt-sys (FFI bindings), libghostty-vt (safe wrappers)
  • Examples workspace (example/, own lockfile and example/target/): ghostling_rs, grid_ref_tracked_rs
  • Opaque handles: own them as alloc::Object<'alloc, ffi::FooImpl> (borrowed ones as alloc::Ref) and free them in Drop
  • Sized structs: build them with ffi::sized!(Type), which sets size to size_of::<Type>() before FFI calls
  • from_result() maps GhosttyResult to Result<(), Error>
  • Ghostty source is fetched at build time by build.rs (pinned commit). Override with GHOSTTY_SOURCE_DIR env var to use a local checkout.
  • Comment heavily — explain why, not just what

  • Never create a PR under any circumstances.
