asciinema-player

The player is still in SolidJS. https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/blob/develop/p... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29387761 The Rust frontend frameworks have been creeping up the perf charts, though.

There is: > Web app for hosting asciicasts > https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-server and > Web player for terminal session recordings > https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player Edit: From what I can see, the player has option to point to the cast file directly.

You can record and play cast files offline easily. You can also embed an asciinema js player [1] on your own site to play casts. [1]: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player

Feel free to report a bug here https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/issues/new (including browser version, OS would help a lot). Btw, it's not a product, just a side, hobby project of mine.

> no third party websites FYI you're not forced to use asciinema.org for hosting the recordings, it's fully self-hosting friendly: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/#quick-start

Historically asciinema was not easy to embed in React because you can't have multiple copies of React. So my team at the time wrote and open-sourced an embeddable alternative to it. Unfortunately that project seems to have disappeared by now. But now that asciinema is no longer in React maybe it will be possible to embed now. See https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/issues/72#issu....

asciinema has a --stdin option to record keypresses - https://discourse.asciinema.org/t/does-asciinema-record-the-... The bit that's not done yet is rendering an overlay in the web player - https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/issues/79

My team wrote our own implementation with a similar API to get around Asciinema's weird support for React [0]. We've been using it in our web application to play back historic terminal sessions recorded by our agent. Unfortunately it hasn't been split out from the main application code yet. Open sourcing it is on the list. [0] https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/issues/72

asciinema is open-source and the file format is publicly documented (asciicast)[1]. You can run `asciinema rec filename.json` to save the file locally and self-host it with asciinema-player[2]. Alternatively, there's also asciicast2gif[3] that converts asciicast json to GIF image. [1]: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema/blob/master/doc/ascii...

I'm regularly hearing about web applications written in ClojureScript, a.k.a. Clojure (a dialect of Lisp, [1]) compiled to JavaScript. Recently I've heard of: - https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player - https://precursorapp.com/ (not open-source) [1] http://www.clojure.org/

> upload to a website not youtube I haven't dug into the details, but both the player[1] and the website[2] code are available so it should be possible to set up your own website if you like. 1. https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player 2. https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema.org

asciinema is here since 2011 (although it was called ascii.io until 2 years ago). As for rewinds, you can click on the progress bar to jump to a time you want. Also, the upcoming version of the player supports fast-forward/rewind/jump keyboard shortcuts: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/blob/next/src/... As for the playback speed you can set speed, theme, font size etc (embedding docs say this - https://asciinema.org/docs/embedding), and you can append these options to any asciicast URL too, like this: https://asciinema.org/a/21743?speed=5&theme=solarized-dark Looks like these are not easily discoverable from the player UI, so noting this down. Thanks for bringing this up!

asciinema dev here. Please read my comment on the topic here: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema.org/issues/186#issuec... Btw, the player is already a separate project: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player/tree/next
