v1.1.1

Don't panic!

Panicking is a part of life…and a part of workin’ in Go. This release addresses two edge cases where a panic() could tank Bubble Tea and break your terminal:

Panics outside of Bubble Tea

If a panic occurs outside of Bubble Tea you can use Program.Kill to restore the terminal state before exiting:

func main() {
	p := tea.NewProgram(model{})

	go func() {
		time.Sleep(3 * time.Second)
		defer p.Kill()
		panic("Urgh")
	}()

	if _, err := p.Run(); err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

Panics in Cmds

If a panic occurs in a Cmd Bubble Tea will now automatically restore the terminal to its natural state before exiting.

type model struct{}

// This command will totally panic.
func pancikyCmd() tea.Msg {
	panic("Oh no! Jk.")
}

func (m model) Update(msg tea.Msg) (tea.Model, tea.Cmd) {
	switch msg := msg.(type) {
	case tea.KeyMsg:
		switch msg.String() {
		case "enter":
			// Panic time! But everything will be OK.
			return m, pancikyCmd
		}
	}
	return m, nil
}

Happy panicking (if that makes any sense).
