## 🚀 Installation

```bash
pip install tuitorial
```

## 🎮 Quick Start

<details>
<summary><b>Python</b></summary>

```python
from tuitorial import Chapter, Step, TutorialApp, Focus
from rich.style import Style

# Your code to present
code = '''
def hello(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}!"

def main():
    print(hello("World"))
'''

# Define tutorial steps
steps = [
    Step(
        "Function Definition",
        [Focus.regex(r"def hello.*:$", style="bold yellow")]
    ),
    Step(
        "Return Statement",
        [Focus.literal('return f"Hello, {name}!"', style="bold green")]
    ),
    Step(
        "Main Function",
        [Focus.range(code.find("def main"), len(code), style="bold blue")]
    ),
]

# Create a chapter
chapter = Chapter("Basic Example", code, steps)

# Run the tutorial
app = TutorialApp([chapter])
app.run()
```

</details>

<details>
<summary><b>YAML</b></summary>

```yaml
chapters:
  - title: "Basic Example"
    code: |
      def hello(name: str) -> str:
          return f"Hello, {name}!"

      def main():
          print(hello("World"))
    steps:
      - description: "Function Definition"
        focus:
          - type: regex
            pattern: "def hello.*:$"
            style: "bold yellow"
      - description: "Return Statement"
        focus:
          - type: literal
            pattern: 'return f"Hello, {name}!"'
            style: "bold green"
      - description: "Main Function"
        focus:
          - type: range
            start: 26 #  Calculated index for "def main"
            end: 53 #  Calculated length of the code
            style: "bold blue"
```

To run the YAML example:

1. Save the YAML content as a `.yaml` file (e.g., `tutorial.yaml`).
2. Either:
   - Use the provided `tuitorial.run_from_yaml(...)` function:
   - Run `tuitorial tutorial.yaml` from the command line.

```bash
# From the command line
tuitorial tutorial.yaml
```

or

```python
# In a separate Python file (e.g., run_yaml.py)
from tuitorial.parse_yaml import run_from_yaml

run_from_yaml("tutorial.yaml")
```

</details>

## 📖 Usage

### Multiple Chapters

<details>
<summary><b>Python</b></summary>

```python
# First chapter
chapter1_code = '''
def greet(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}!"
'''
chapter1_steps = [
    Step("Greeting Function", [Focus.regex(r"def greet.*:$")]),
    Step("Return Statement", [Focus.literal('return f"Hello, {name}!"')]),
]
chapter1 = Chapter("Greetings", chapter1_code, chapter1_steps)

# Second chapter
chapter2_code = '''
def farewell(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Goodbye, {name}!"
'''
chapter2_steps = [
    Step("Farewell Function", [Focus.regex(r"def farewell.*:$")]),
    Step("Return Statement", [Focus.literal('return f"Goodbye, {name}!"')]),
]
chapter2 = Chapter("Farewells", chapter2_code, chapter2_steps)

# Run tutorial with multiple chapters
app = TutorialApp([chapter1, chapter2])
app.run()
```

</details>

<details>
<summary><b>YAML</b></summary>

```yaml
chapters:
  - title: "Greetings"
    code: |
      def greet(name: str) -> str:
          return f"Hello, {name}!"
    steps:
      - description: "Greeting Function"
        focus:
          - type: regex
            pattern: "def greet.*:$"
      - description: "Return Statement"
        focus:
          - type: literal
            pattern: 'return f"Hello, {name}!"'

  - title: "Farewells"
    code: |
      def farewell(name: str) -> str:
          return f"Goodbye, {name}!"
    steps:
      - description: "Farewell Function"
        focus:
          - type: regex
            pattern: "def farewell.*:$"
      - description: "Return Statement"
        focus:
          - type: literal
            pattern: 'return f"Goodbye, {name}!"'
```

</details>

### Steps

Each step in a tutorial consists of a description and a list of focuses.

**Python:**

```python
Step(
    "Step Description",  # Shown in the UI
    [
        Focus.literal("some text"),  # One or more Focus objects
        Focus.regex(r"pattern.*"),   # Can combine different focus types
    ]
)
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
steps:
  - description: "Step Description"
    focus:
      - type: literal
        pattern: "some text"
      - type: regex
        pattern: "pattern.*"
```

### 🎯 Focus Types

#### Literal Match

**Python:**

```python
Focus.literal("def", style="bold yellow")
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: literal
    pattern: "def"
    style: "bold yellow"
```

#### Regular Expression

**Python:**

```python
Focus.regex(r"def \w+\(.*\):", style="bold green")
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: regex
    pattern: "def \\w+\\(.*\\):"
    style: "bold green"
```

#### Line Number

**Python:**

```python
Focus.line(1, style="bold blue")  # Highlight first line
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: line
    pattern: 1
    style: "bold blue"
```

#### Range

Highlights a specific range of characters within the code based on their indices (0-based).

**Python:**

```python
Focus.range(0, 10, style="bold magenta")  # Highlight first 10 characters
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: range
    start: 0
    end: 10
    style: "bold magenta"
```

#### Starts With

Highlights lines starting with the specified text. Can be configured to match from the start of any line or only at the start of the line.

**Python:**

```python
Focus.startswith("import", style="bold blue", from_start_of_line=True)
Focus.startswith("from", style="bold blue", from_start_of_line=False)
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: startswith
    pattern: "import"
    style: "bold blue"
    from_start_of_line: true
  - type: startswith
    pattern: "from"
    style: "bold blue"
    from_start_of_line: false
```

#### Between

Highlights text between two specified patterns. Supports inclusive or exclusive bounds, multiline matching, and greedy or non-greedy matching.

**Python:**

```python
Focus.between("start_function", "end_function", style="bold blue", inclusive=True, multiline=True)
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: between
    start_pattern: "start_function"
    end_pattern: "end_function"
    style: "bold blue"
    inclusive: true
    multiline: true
    match_index: 0 # Only highlight the first match (0-based)
    greedy: true # Use greedy matching (longest possible match)
```

#### Line Containing

Highlights entire lines that contain a specified pattern, with optional inclusion of surrounding lines.
Can match either literal text or regular expressions, and can select specific matches.

**Python:**

```python
# Highlight all lines containing "def"
Focus.line_containing("def", style="bold yellow")

# Include surrounding lines
Focus.line_containing(
    "def",
    style="bold yellow",
    lines_before=1,
    lines_after=1,
)

# Use regex and only highlight second match
Focus.line_containing(
    r"def \w+",
    style="bold blue",
    regex=True,
    match_index=1,
)
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: line_containing
    pattern: "def"
    style: "bold yellow"
    lines_before: 1 # optional: include line before match
    lines_after: 1 # optional: include line after match
    regex: false # optional: treat pattern as regex
    match_index: 0 # optional: only highlight first match (0-based)
```

The `line_containing` focus type is particularly useful for:

- Highlighting function definitions and their body
- Showing imports and their surrounding context
- Focusing on specific sections of code while maintaining readability
- Matching patterns across multiple lines with surrounding context

#### Syntax Highlighting

Uses Rich's built-in syntax highlighting for the entire code or specific lines.

**Python:**

```python
# Highlight all code
Focus.syntax(theme="monokai", line_numbers=True)

# Highlight specific lines
Focus.syntax(
    theme="monokai",
    start_line=0,
    end_line=3,
)
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: syntax
    lexer: "python" # optional: language to highlight (default: python)
    theme: "monokai" # optional: color theme
    line_numbers: true # optional: show line numbers
    start_line: 0 # optional: first line to highlight
    end_line: 3 # optional: last line to highlight
```

### 🎨 Styling

Styles can be customized using Rich's style syntax:

**Python:**

```python
from rich.style import Style

# Using string syntax
Focus.literal("def", style="bold yellow")

# Using Style object
Focus.literal("def", style=Style(bold=True, color="yellow"))
```

**YAML:**

```yaml
focus:
  - type: literal
    pattern: "def"
    style: "bold yellow" # Using string syntax

  - type: literal
    pattern: "def"
    style: "bold color(yellow)" # Using Style object
```

</details>

### Custom Highlighting Patterns

**Python:**

<details>
<summary><b>Python</b></summary>

```python
from tuitorial import TutorialApp, Focus
from rich.style import Style

# Define custom styles
FUNCTION_STYLE = Style(color="bright_yellow", bold=True)
ARGUMENT_STYLE = Style(color="bright_green", italic=True)

# Your code to present
code = '''
def hello(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}!"
'''

# Create focused patterns
patterns = [
    Focus.regex(r"def \w+", style=FUNCTION_STYLE),
    Focus.regex(r"\([^)]*\)", style=ARGUMENT_STYLE),
]

# Create tutorial step
tutorial_steps = [
    Step("Function Definition", patterns),
]

# Create a chapter
chapter = Chapter("Custom Patterns", code, tutorial_steps)

# Run the tutorial
app = TutorialApp([chapter])
app.run()
```

</details>

<details>
<summary><b>YAML</b></summary>

```yaml
chapters:
  - title: "Custom Patterns"
    code: |
      def hello(name: str) -> str:
          return f"Hello, {name}!"
    steps:
      - description: "Function Definition"
        focus:
          - type: regex
            pattern: "def \\w+"
            style: "bright_yellow bold"
          - type: regex
            pattern: "\\([^)]*\\)"
            style: "bright_green italic"
```

</details>

### Multiple Highlights per Step

**Python:**

<details>
<summary><b>Python</b></summary>

```python
from tuitorial import Chapter, Step, TutorialApp, Focus
from rich.style import Style

# Your code to present
code = '''
def hello(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}!"
'''

### 📖 Helper Functions

#### `create_bullet_point_chapter`

This helper function simplifies the creation of chapters that present information in a bullet-point format.
It automatically generates the code content from the list of bullet points, and each step in the generated chapter will highlight a different bullet point.

<details>
<summary><b>Python</b></summary>

```python
from rich.style import Style
from tuitorial import TutorialApp
from tuitorial.helpers import create_bullet_point_chapter

bullet_points = [
    "This is the first point.",
    "Here is the second point.",
    "And finally, the third point.",
]

# Create a chapter with bullet points
bullet_point_chapter = create_bullet_point_chapter(
    "My Bullet Points",
    bullet_points,
    style=Style(color="magenta", bold=True),
)

# You can also add extra descriptive text per step:
bullet_point_chapter_with_extras = create_bullet_point_chapter(
    "My Bullet Points with Extras",
    bullet_points,
    extras=[
        "Extra info for point 1.",
        "More details about point 2.",
        "Final thoughts on point 3.",
    ],
    style=Style(color="green", bold=True),
)

app = TutorialApp([bullet_point_chapter, bullet_point_chapter_with_extras])
app.run()
```

</details>

<details>
<summary><b>YAML</b></summary>
