rainbow
Easily colorize commands output using patterns.
rainbow [ --COLOR=PATTERN ... | --conf CONF ] COMMAND
Examples
Using the command line
Prepend rainbow with --COLOR=PATTERN associations to your command, for example:
Tail some log file with lines containing ERROR in red:
rainbow --red=ERROR tail -f /var/log/my.log
You can also pipe commands output into rainbow:
tail -f /var/log/my.log | rainbow --red=ERROR
Using configs
Rainbow can load configuration for each command from files, which is the most convenient way to use it. When running rainbow mycommand, rainbow will automatically look for a config named mycommand.cfg in ~/.config/rainbow, ~/.rainbow, /etc/rainbow, or builtin configs:
Colorize the diff command output using the builtin config:
rainbow diff file1 file2
Start my custom command, using ~/.rainbow/mycommand.cfg:
rainbow mycommand
The syntax for writing configs is straightforward, see the builtin configs for examples. See also the commands support table.
