Coolours

A Python Module To Make Text Styling Easy

Made By Alex Hawking

Installation

With Pip

Install with:

pip install coolours

or

pip3 install coolours

With wget

Wget must be installed

cd ~/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Handmade-Studios/coolours-module/master/coolours/coolours.py && cd ~

Probably easier to copy and paste that ^

Usage

Importing

Import coolours using:

from coolours.colour import *

You can import with

import coolours.colour

But that requires you to use print(coolours.colour('style', 'textcolour', 'backgroundcolour')), so I think it is easier to use the first method.

Colours

You use coolours within the print function as shown below:

print(colour('style', 'text-colour', 'background-colour') + 'your text')

Make sure you place the colours and styles within quotes

Alignment

• Center

To center text use:

print(center('yourtext'))

• Right

To align text to the right use:

print(right('yourtext'))

• With Colour

To use alignment with colour:

print(colour('style', 'textcolour', 'bgcolour') + center('yourtext'))

Default

To make the colours back to default after the coloured text add default to the end of the print function:

print(colour('style', 'text-colour', 'background-colour') + 'your text' + default)

Updating

To update use:

pip install --upgrade coolours

Or:

pip3 install --upgrade coolours
