This module is really simple, it gives you colored strings for terminal
usage. Included colors are red
, green
, yellow
, blue
, black
, magenta
, cyan
, and white
( as well as clean
and disable
).
Crayons is nice because it automatically wraps a given string in both the foreground color, as well as returning to the original state after the string is complete. Most terminal color libraries make you manage this yourself.
Arguments in include always=True
and bold=True
.
- If you call
disable()
, all future calls to colors will be ignored. - If the current process is not in a TTY (e.g. being piped), no colors will be displayed.
- Length of ColoredStrings can be properly calculated.
- Powered by colorama.
# red is red, white is white. >>> print '{} white'.format(crayons.red('red')) red white
That's it!
$ pip install crayons
