Manual Download

Download compiled binaries from releases.

Windows Font Issues

There have been reports that some characters pipes-rs uses are missing on Windows, which causes them to appear as tofu. If you experience this issue, try using a font with a large character set, such as Noto Mono.

Keybindings

  • r: reset the screen
  • q or ^C: exit the program

Configuration

pipes-rs can be configured using TOML located at ~/.config/pipes-rs/config.toml. The following is an example file with the default settings:

bold = true
color_mode = "ansi" # ansi, rgb or none
palette = "default" # default, darker, pastel or matrix
rainbow = 0 # 0-255
delay_ms = 20
inherit_style = false
kinds = ["heavy"] # heavy, light, curved, knobby, emoji, outline, dots, blocks, sus
num_pipes = 1
reset_threshold = 0.5 # 0.0–1.0
turn_chance = 0.15 # 0.0–1.0

Color Modes

Mode Description
ansi pipe colors are randomly selected from the terminal color profile, default option
rgb pipe colors are randomly generated rgb values, unsupported in some terminals
none pipe colors will not be set and use the current terminal text color

Palettes

Palette Description
default bright colors – good on dark backgrounds, default option
darker darker colors – good on light backgrounds
pastel pastel colors – good on dark backgrounds
matrix colors based on Matrix digital rain – good on dark backgrounds

Pipe Kinds

Kind Preview
heavy ┃ ┃ ━ ━ ┏ ┓ ┗ ┛
light │ │ ─ ─ ┌ ┐ └ ┘
curved │ │ ─ ─ ╭ ╮ ╰ ╯
knobby ╽ ╿ ╼ ╾ ┎ ┒ ┖ ┚
emoji 👆 👇 👈 👉 👌 👌 👌 👌
outline ║ ║ ═ ═ ╔ ╗ ╚ ╝
dots • • • • • • • •
blocks █ █ ▀ ▀ █ █ ▀ ▀
sus ඞ ඞ ඞ ඞ ඞ ඞ ඞ ඞ

Due to emojis having a different character width, using the emoji pipe kind along side another pipe kind can cause spacing issues.

Options

There are also command line options that can be used to override parts of the configuration file:

Option Usage Example
-b toggles bold text -b true
-c sets the color mode -c rgb
-d sets the delay in ms -d 15
-i toggles if pipes inherit style when hitting the edge -i false
-k sets the kinds of pipes, each kind separated by commas -k heavy,curved
-p sets the number of pipes on screen -p 5
-r sets the percentage of the screen to be filled before resetting -r 0.75
-t chance of a pipe turning each frame -t 0.15
--palette sets the color palette, RGB mode only --palette pastel
--rainbow sets the number of degrees per frame to shift the hue of each pipe, RGB mode only --rainbow 5
