tootallnate / ansi.js Goto Github PK

I'm thinking of using this module on one of my personal projects. Just wondering if this has been tested on windows?

The telnet client only sees the text and no colors.

It would be great to have a new release with the LICENSE file and the license information in the package.json.

Thanks!

I realize that the code https://github.com/TooTallNate/ansi.js/blob/master/examples/starwars.js is siimply connecting to a server and streaming the bits it gets, however my legal team won't let me ship that file as it poses a potential legal issue.

You might want to consider removing this example. OR replacing it with something that is ok to use.

http://oreilly.com/pub/h/4441 outlines how to use mplayer to create ASCII movies. From here you just need to find a CreativeCommons or similar clip you can recode.

I cloned the repo, and run

npm install

For some reason process.stderr is undefined in this case, you know why this is happening? It just suddenly started to happen. Node version is 0.10.34.
Could we get a handler on if its undefined?

var ansi = require('ansi')
log.cursor = ansi(process.stderr)

function ansi (stream, options) {
if (stream._ansicursor) {
return stream._ansicursor
} else {
return stream._ansicursor = new Cursor(stream, options)
}
}
module.exports = exports = ansi

Hi,
i have high doubts about the right to distribute yoshi.png in ansi.js.
Do you have the license to ? or a link to the license applying to that file ?

I hope you understand why i raise that issue -- better now than too late...

Jérémy.

This code has some interesting behavior on powershell:

var ansi = require('ansi');

var ansiLogger = ansi(process.stderr);

ansiLogger.fg.red();
ansiLogger.bg.grey();

ansiLogger.write('colored output\n').reset();

Now, in ConEmu (my terminal of choice on Windows), this works fine:

However, if I use powershell.exe by itself, the colors don't reset properly:

See how the BG of all the text emitted afterwards is black? I discovered this originally from a bug logged to npm.

Is it possible to go to the end of the line? Like:

cursor
  .gotoEndOfLine(row)
  .fg.green()
  .write('Done');

The title says it all, thanks :)

Is this possible with ansi package?

Are there any plans to make this 'use strict' compatible?

Currently you use octal literals which are being deprecated.

Hello Nate!

I am trying to do the reverse of what you tool does - take stdout/err logs (with window size info and timestamps of when things were printed to the terminal) and "play" them back in a < pre >.

The hard part it would seem, is interpreting the ANSI escape codes.

Do you know of any project that has done this? If not, may I use some of your code to do it?

Thank you so much!
