32.Sh NAME
33.Nm drawer.lua
34.Nd FreeBSD menu/screen drawer module
35.Sh DESCRIPTION
36.Nm
37contains functionality for drawing and manipulating the menu, logo, and brand
38to the screen.
39.Pp
40Before using the functionality provided by
41.Nm ,
42it must be included with a statement such as the following:
43.Pp
44.Dl local drawer = require("drawer")
45.Ss BRAND DEFINITIONS
46Brand definitions describe a
47.Dq brand ,
48traditionally drawn above the menu.
49The exact position may be controlled by using the
50.Xr loader.conf 5
51variables
52.Va loader_brand_x
53and
54.Va loader_brand_y .
55The following keys may be defined for a brand definition:
56.Bl -tag -width ".Ic Graphic" -offset indent
57.It Ic graphic
58A table of strings containing rows of text to be drawn to the screen.
59.El
60.Ss LOGO DEFINITIONS
61Logo definitions describe a
62.Dq logo ,
63traditionally to the right of the menu.
64The exact position may be controlled by using the
65.Xr loader.conf 5
66variables
67.Va loader_logo_x
68and
69.Va loader_logo_y .
70The following keys may be defined for a logo definition:
71.Bl -tag -width ".Ic requires_color" -offset indent
72.It Ic requires_color
73A boolean describing whether or not this logo definition requires color.
74If it is chosen to be drawn and it requires color on a color-disabled boot,
75.Nm
76will elect to use the default
77.Dq orbbw
78logo rather than the chosen logo.
79.It Ic graphic
80A table of strings containing rows of text to be drawn to the screen.
81.It Ic shift
82A table describing the
83.Va x
84and
85.Va y

87This is typically used for shifting the menu and brand if an empty or minimal
88logo are selected.
89.El
90.Ss CUSTOM BRANDS AND LOGOS
91The brand and logo system is designed to allow brands and logos to be easily
92plugged in.
93When an unrecognized
94.Ev loader_brand
95or
96.Ev loader_logo
97are encountered,
98.Nm
99will attempt to include
100.Pa brand-${loader_brand}.lua
101or
102.Pa logo-${loader_logo}.lua
103respectively.
104These files are expected to call either
105.Fn drawer.addBrand
106or
107.Fn drawer.addLogo
108to add the requested branddef or logodef.
109.Nm
110will attempt to do another lookup for the requested brand or logo before falling
111back to one of the following:
112.Bl -tag -width ".Ic drawer.default_color_logodef" -offset indent
113.It Ic drawer.default_brand
114The default brand to be used if the requested brand cannot be located.
115.It Ic drawer.default_color_logodef
116The default logodef to be used if an invalid logodef is requested and
117.Xr loader 8
118has been configured to allow output of color.
119.It Ic drawer.default_bw_logodef
120The default logodef to be used if either an invalid logodef has been requested,
121or a logodef has been requested that requires color and
122.Xr loader 8
123has been configured to not output color.
124.El
125.Ss FRAME STYLES
126.Nm
127contains the definitions for the different frame styles that may be drawn around
128the menu.
129Frame styles define the characters drawn for horizontal lines, vertical aligns,
130and each of the four corner styles.
131The following keys may be defined for a frame style:
132.Bl -bullet -width ""
133.It
134horizontal

136vertical
137.It
138top_left
139.It
140bottom_left
141.It
142top_right
143.It
144bottom_right
145.El
146Frame styles are currently defined in the table
147.Ic drawer.frame_styles
148indexed by the name used for
149.Ev loader_menu_frame .
150No API currently exists for manipulating this table indirectly.
