<h1 id="error-message-generator-2.0">Error Message Generator 2.0</h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This is a modern remake of my “Error Message Generator” that was originally written using Perl/Tk around 2006. This one is written in Go in 2023 using the <a href="https://fyne.io/">Fyne UI</a> and aims to match and surpass the features of the original Perl version.</p>

<p>The <em>original</em> inspiration for this back in 2006 was an online web tool called “Atom Smasher’s Error Message Generator” which generated images of error messages. My Perl ErrorGen program included all of the Atom Smasher icons. Atom Smasher’s page seems offline recently, so interest has skyrocketed for my Perl ErrorGen program, so I decided to dust it off, redo it in Go and make it better than ever before.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<h1 id="features">Features</h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This program has two operating modes:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>MainWindow mode: by default, it will show the Main Window where you can construct and test a custom error message pop-up.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><a href="#command-line-interface">Command Line Interface</a> (CLI): If given command-line options, it will <em>just</em> pop up the message box you specified and print the user’s selection to its standard output, useful for batch files or shell scripts to ask the user a question.</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The current features include:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Choose from 72 built-in icons that all came from the original Atom Smasher’s Error Message Generator.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Custom title bar and message text.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Configure up to three buttons (via the MainWindow; unlimited number of buttons by command line) each with custom labels.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Mark some buttons disabled and not clickable.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Command line interface to use these error dialogs from scripts and external programs:
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The program returns the selected button text on its standard output.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The <code>--cancel</code> value can be printed to standard out if the user X’s out of the window without selecting a button.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Specify which button should be the primary/default response of the Return key.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Specify which button should be the cancel/escape key response.</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The roadmap of future features include:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Improve the command-line interface to bring it up to par with other dialog tools such as Zenity.
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>e.g., add File Open/Save Dialogs, Color Picker Dialogs, and others that can be extremely useful to third-party programs.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The graphical Error Message Generator tool will probably not call these much - the primary GUI for this program is very much a fun toy. :)</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>In the MainWindow, add a “Save” button that will turn your custom error dialog <em>into</em> a batch file or shell script that calls the ErrorGen program’s command line interface.
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Example: you use the ErrorGen UI to create a prank dialog box and “Save” it as a .bat file on disk.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Making sure that the .bat and ErrorGen.exe are in the same folder together, double-clicking on the .bat script will show your error dialog without the MainWindow coming up!</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Allow users to select a custom icon image.
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The command-line interface already supports this.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The MainWindow should allow users to browse and select a custom icon from their computer to use in their toy error boxes.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Allow users to permanently extend the icon library with a folder of their own customs, so they don’t have to browse and select a custom file every single time.</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|

<h1 id="command-line-interface">Command Line Interface</h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>You can call this program from batch files or shell scripts to prompt the user with a graphical dialog box and read the button they chose from this program’s standard output.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>For example, from a bash script:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="sourceCode" id="cb1"><pre class="sourceCode bash"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb1-1"><a href="#cb1-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="co">#!/bin/bash</span></span>
|
|||
|
|
<span id="cb1-2"><a href="#cb1-2" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="va">answer</span><span class="op">=</span><span class="kw">`</span><span class="ex">./errorgen</span> <span class="at">--alert</span> <span class="at">--title</span> <span class="st">"Disk Failure"</span> <span class="dt">\</span></span>
|
|||
|
|
<span id="cb1-3"><a href="#cb1-3" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> <span class="at">--text</span> <span class="st">"Failure to read from drive Z:/"</span> <span class="dt">\</span></span>
|
|||
|
|
<span id="cb1-4"><a href="#cb1-4" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> <span class="at">--icon</span> defrag <span class="at">--button</span> Abort <span class="at">--button</span> Retry <span class="at">--button</span> Fail <span class="dt">\</span></span>
|
|||
|
|
<span id="cb1-5"><a href="#cb1-5" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> <span class="at">--default</span> 1 <span class="at">--cancel</span> Fail<span class="kw">`</span></span>
|
|||
|
|
<span id="cb1-6"><a href="#cb1-6" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="bu">echo</span> <span class="st">"You have chosen: </span><span class="va">$answer</span><span class="st">"</span></span></code></pre></div>

<p>The full documentation is included below. Running <code>errorgen --help</code> from a text terminal will have the program print its documentation to you, but this won’t work on the Windows version since a program must decide if it’s a graphical or a command line app and can’t be both.</p>

<h1 id="building">Building</h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Requirements:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Go: https://golang.org</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Fyne dependencies: https://developer.fyne.io/started/</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Fedora: <code>sudo dnf install golang gcc libXcursor-devel libXrandr-devel mesa-libGL-devel libXi-devel libXinerama-devel libXxf86vm-devel</code></p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Ubuntu/Debian: <code>sudo apt-get install golang gcc libgl1-mesa-dev xorg-dev</code></p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>There is a GNU Makefile to make build commands easier to remember.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li><code>make setup</code> installs Go dependencies for this project.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><code>make</code> or <code>make build</code> will produce the ./errorgen binary.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><code>make run</code> runs the Go app locally for development and testing.]</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><code>make clean</code> removes the built binary.</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Cross compiling: install Docker and fyne-cross and run <code>make release</code> to produce the build. To install fyne-cross:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="sourceCode" id="cb3"><pre class="sourceCode bash"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb3-1"><a href="#cb3-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="ex">go</span> install github.com/fyne-io/fyne-cross</span></code></pre></div>
|
|||
|
|
<p>In case of permission errors (Docker often needs run as root) you can try sudo running fyne-cross directly, e.g. to produce Windows amd64 and i386 builds a command like:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="sourceCode" id="cb4"><pre class="sourceCode bash"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb4-1"><a href="#cb4-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="co"># which fyne-cross to use your locally installed Go binary for the current user,</span></span>
|
|||
|
|
<span id="cb4-2"><a href="#cb4-2" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="co"># so that root doesn't need to also install fyne-cross and have a $PATH set up.</span></span>
|
|||
|
|
<span id="cb4-3"><a href="#cb4-3" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a><span class="fu">sudo</span> <span class="va">$(</span><span class="fu">which</span> fyne-cross<span class="va">)</span> windows <span class="at">-arch</span><span class="op">=</span><span class="dt">\*</span></span></code></pre></div>
