Terminal Styler

CLI tool for adding foreground and background colours, as well as styles such as bold, underline, and more to your terminal output.

Prerequisites

• Python
• Support for ANSI codes in your terminal

Execution

To run the program, execute the following command from the root directory of the project:

python3 main.py <input-file> [<output-file>]

If no output file is specified, the output file will be

styled-<input-file>.

Input File

The input file should be a file containing the text you wish to style. The text can be styled using the following syntax:

<console[.<styles>]>text</console>

Each style is separated by a period.

Eg: <console.bold.underline.color-green>text</console>

The following styles are supported:

• bold
• underline
• reverse-text
• color-<color>
• bg-<color>

The following colours are supported:

• black
• red
• green
• yellow
• blue
• magenta
• cyan
• white
• grey

Each color has a dark alternative, except black and grey, represented as dark-<color>.

Eg: <console.color-dark-red>text</console>

You may also nest console tags within each other.

Eg: <console.bold>text<console.underline>text</console></console>

RBG colors can be specified in place of the default colors, using the syntax [#hexcode].

Eg: <console.bg-[#ff0000]>text</console>

Note: If you wish to use <console or </console> in your text without it being transpiled, you must prefix 'console' with a bang !

Eg: <!console>text</!console> will be transpiled to <console>text</console>

One exclaimation mark will be removed from after each <, if present.

Output File

The output file will be a copy of the input file, with the text styled according to the input file. If no output file is specified, the output file will be named styled-input-file.

The output file will be of the same type as the input file.

Note: If the output file already exists, it will be overwritten.

Note: The application will not check if the input file is a valid file, or if the output file is a valid file name.

Examples

Input

test.py

print("<console.color-dark-red.bg-green.bold>Hello <console.underline>World!</console></console>")

package test;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello <console.bold>World!</console>");

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
