Installation

This library is hosted on pypi.org. You can install it with pip:

pip install textColor

Usage

To use this library, you first have to import it:

import textColor

To print colored text do the following:

print(textColor.green("GREEN"))           # 'GREEN' will be green
print(textColor.red("RED"))               # 'RED' will be red
print(textColor.blue("BLUE"))             # 'BLUE' will be blue
print(textColor.yellow("YELLOW"))         # 'YELLOW' will be yellow

You can also use special 'pre-fixes':

print(textColor.prompt("Name: "))         # will output '[?] Name: '  while '[?]' is yellow
print(textColor.info("Info"))             # will output '[-] Info'    while '[-]' is blue
print(textColor.error("ERROR"))           # will output '[!] ERROR'   while '[!]' is red
print(textColor.output("Success"))        # will output '[>] Success' while '[>]' is green

If you dont' want to type input()/print() you can use the 'print functions':

textColor.pPromt("Name: ")                # will call input("[?] Name: ") and return
                                          #  the output, while '[?]’ is yellow
textColor.pInfo("Info")                   # will output '[-] Info'    while '[-]' is blue
textColor.pError("Error")                 # will output '[!] ERROR'   while '[!]' is red
textColor.pOutput("Success")              # will output '[>] Success' while '[>]' is green

If those function names seem too long, you should use abbreviations:

green   ––> g
red     ––> r
blue    ––> b
yellow  ––> y

error   ––> err
output  ––> out

pError  ––> pErr
pOutput ––> pOut
