Installation

API

The colourout package provides two functions, and an Enum for the available colours.

printc

The printc utilises the builtin print function to print coloured text to the terminal.

from colourout import printc

printc("Hello, World!", styles=["BLUE", "UNDERLINE"])
>>> \033[34m\033[4mHello, World!\033[0m

eprintc

The eprintc function is the same as printc, but prints to stderr instead of stdout.

from colourout import eprintc

eprintc("Hello, World!", styles=["RED", "BOLD"])
>>> \033[31m\033[1mHello, World!\033[0m

Styles

The Styles enum provides a list of available styles.

from colourout import Styles, printc

printc(
    "Hello, World!",
    styles=[Styles.BLUE, Styles.UNDERLINE],
)

>>> \033[34m\033[4mHello, World!\033[0m
