Example

Here's an example of how to use ptcolors:

from ptcolors.tcolors import TColors

ptcolors = ptcolors()
ptcolors.headermsg("This is a header message.")
ptcolors.okmsg("This is a success message.")
ptcolors.warnmsg("This is a warning message.")
ptcolors.failmsg("This is a failure message.")
ptcolors.infomsg("This is an info message.")

Here’s an example of using a context manager to handle resources, like managing messages during a function’s execution. Context managers in Python, typically implemented with the with statement, allow you to control resource allocation and release efficiently.

from ptcolors.tcolors import TColors

msg = TColors()

def __call__(self):
    """Run the target sequence."""
    # The context manager is entered here, and the messages are set up.
    with self.msg.messages(
        f"Starting {self.name()}...",  # Message displayed at the start
        f"{self.name()} complete.",    # Message displayed on successful completion
        f"{self.name()} failed.",      # Message displayed on failure
        self.config["function"],       # The function to be executed
        *self.config["function-arguments"],  # Positional arguments for the function
        **self.config,                 # Keyword arguments for the function
    ) as status:
        # The status is set based on the outcome of the context manager block
        self.status = status
