Terminal is a small package that can be used with node.js to control terminal output. The package can move the cursor in the terminal and output colored text. It can colorize a message with a simple straightforward markup syntax.
Some examples from the examples directory.
Control colored output. See also examples/colors.js. Colors may vary depending on the terminal settings.
Simple color changing:
terminal.color('magenta').write('Unicorn');
This will output Unicorn in magenta (or purple). To change the background color to magenta:
terminal.color('magenta', 'background').write('Unicorn');
Terminal supports formatting strings with colors using a simple syntax. Outputting Unicorn in magenta (like the example above) would look like this:
terminal.colorize('%mUnicorn');
// And changing the background color to magenta
terminal.colorize('%5Unicorn');
Using this syntax we can create Rainbows easily in one line:
terminal.colorize('%rR%ma%ci%bn%yb%go%rw\n');
// Or with background colors
terminal.colorize('%w%1 R %2 A %3 I %4 N %5 B %6 O %7 W %n ');
The colorize function accepts the following modifiers:
