print-color

from print_color import print

print("Hello world", tag='success', tag_color='green', color='white')

Print Color is a minimalist approach to terminal color printing in Python. It is a wrapper around the print() function, and simply allows you to provide extra optional parameters such as:

• tag
• tag_color or tag_colour
• tag_format
• color or colour
• background
• format

It aims to be a customizable logger for your applications, and makes formatting warnings, info messages and errors a breeze.
