This module is really simple, it gives you colored strings for terminal
usage. Included colors are red
, green
, yellow
, blue
, black
, magenta
, cyan
, white
, and
normal
(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 include always=True
and bold=True
.
- If you call
disable()
, all future calls to colors will be ignored. - If you call
normal()
, color is reset to default foreground color - 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
