Ascii text color code tagging for python prints and logs

Project description

QuickColor

QuickColor is a Python library providing tags for color formatting sections of printable content. The tags can be flexibly used as part of any string as they simply resolve to the ASCII color codes interpreted by your terminal or terminal emulator.

Installation

Use the package manager pip to install quickcolor.

pip install quickcolor

Library Usage For Color Application

from quickcolor.color_def import color

# colorize printable content
print(f"{color.CGREEN2}This text is bold green{color.CEND}")
from quickcolor.color_def import colors

# alternate method to colorize printable content
print(f"Formatting this phrase part to {colors.fg.yellow}display yellow{colors.off}")

Library Usage For Color Stripping

from quickcolor.color_filter import strip_ansi_esc_sequences_from_string

testString = f'{color.CYELLOW2}Yellow String!{color.CEND}'
print(testString)
print(f'No longer a {strip_ansi_esc_sequences_from_string(testString)}')
from quickcolor.color_filter import strip_ansi_esc_sequences_from_input

testString = f'{color.CBLUE2}Blue String!{color.CEND}'
testBytes = testString.encode(encoding="utf-8")
print(testString)
print(testBytes)
print(f'No longer a {strip_ansi_esc_sequences_from_input(stringOrBytes = testBytes)}')

CLI Utility

The following CLI is included with this package for visualizing available color fields and code combinations.

# qc -h
