Simple Python package for colorized terminal output

Project description

pycolorecho

Welcome to pycolorecho - your go-to Python package for effortlessly colorizing text within terminals, enhancing the visual appeal and readability of your console applications.

Features

The pycolorecho package offers a plethora of features to style your text:

  • Text Colorization: Easily change the foreground color of your text to catch attention or categorize information.
  • Background Colorization: Make your text pop by adding vibrant background colors, ensuring it stands out against the terminal background.
  • Text Styles: From bold to underline, add emphasis and structure to your text with various styling options.
  • Text Cases: Optimize readability by converting text to different cases like sentence case, title case, or all caps.

Standard and True Color ANSI Formats

With pycolorecho, you have the flexibility to choose between standard and true color ANSI formats:

Standard Colors

Enjoy a classic color palette including black, green, red, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, and white. These colors are universally supported across terminals, ensuring consistency across different operating systems.

True Colors (24-bit)

Step into the vibrant world of true colors, boasting millions of distinct shades for unparalleled visual richness. True colors, also known as 24-bit color, offer a more accurate representation of images and graphics. However, please note that support for true colors may vary depending on your terminal and operating system capabilities.

Getting Started

  • Install pycolorecho via pip:
pip install pycolorecho
  • Import the package in your Python script:
import pycolorecho

Usage

from pycolorecho import echo, TextColor, TextBackgroundColor, TextEffect, ColorMapper

# Colorizing entire message
echo('This is a test message', text_color=TextColor.RED)  # Standard color
echo('This is a test message', text_color=TextColor.ACID_GREEN)  # True color

# Colorizing by regex pattern
echo('This is a test message', regex_pattern=r'test', text_color=TextColor.RED,
     text_background_color=TextBackgroundColor.ACID_GREEN)

# Colorizing by mappings
color_mappings = ColorMapper()
color_mappings.add_mapping('error', [r'error'], text_color=TextColor.RED, text_effect=TextEffect.UNDERLINE)
echo('This is a test error message', mappings=color_mappings)

Constants

  • RESET: This is a constant ANSI code variable to reset the text styles.

Methods

  • echo(message: str, regex_pattern: Optional[str] = None, mappings: Optional[ColorMapper] = None, text_color: Optional[str] = None, text_background_color: Optional[str] = None, text_effect: Optional[str] = None, text_case: Optional[int] = TextCase.NONE, color_match: Optional[bool] = False, ignore_case: Optional[bool] = False) - Printstext colorized within the terminal based on the provided inputs. Supports the following scenarios:
    1. Colorizing a message by specifying text foreground color, text background color, text effect, and text case.
    2. Colorizing a message by matching it with a regex pattern and specifying text foreground color, text background color, text effect, text case, ignore case, and color match.
    3. Colorizing a message by matching it with mappings (utilizing a ColorMapper) and specifying text foreground.
  • get_colorized_message(message: str, text_color: Optional[str] = None, text_background_color: Optional[str] = None, text_effect: Optional[str] = None, text_case: Optional[int] = TextCase.NONE) -> str - Generates a colorized message based on the provided inputs.
  • get_colorized_message_by_regex_pattern(message: str, regex_pattern: str, text_color: Optional[str] = None, text_background_color: Optional[str] = None, text_effect: Optional[str] = None, text_case: Optional[int] = TextCase.NONE, color_match: Optional[bool] = False, ignore_case: Optional[bool] = False) -> str - Generates a colorized message based on the provided regex pattern and inputs.
  • get_colorized_message_by_mappings(message: str, mappings: Optional[ColorMapper] = None) -> str - Generates a colorized message based on the provided mappings.
  • is_colorization_supported() -> bool - Checks if the current operating system supports colorization. Returns True if colorization is supported, False otherwise.
  • is_true_color_supported() -> bool - Verifies whether the true color format is supported by the current operating system and terminal. Returns True if true color format is supported, False otherwise.

Usage

from pycolorecho import is_colorization_supported, is_true_color_supported, get_colorized_message, get_colorized_message_by_regex_pattern, get_colorized_message_by_mappings, TextColor, TextBackgroundColor, TextEffect, ColorMapper

print(is_colorization_supported())  # Prints True if colorization is supported, False otherwise
print(is_true_color_supported())  # Prints True if true color format is supported, False otherwise

# Retrieving colorized message
print(get_colorized_message('This is a test message', text_color=TextColor.RED))
