Project description

A tiny, useful, and readable color library for terminal output. Perfect for fast, simple ANSI color formatting in Python applications.

Quick Start

Basic Colorization

from tinycolors import colorize, cprint, cinput

# Colorize text with ANSI codes
red_text = colorize("Hello", color="red")
print(red_text)

# Print colored text directly
cprint("Success!", color="green")
cprint("Warning", color="yellow", style="bold")

# Input with colored prompt
name = cinput("Enter your name: ", color="blue")

Using Color Classes

from tinycolors import color, clib

# Basic colors
print(color.red + "Red text" + color.reset)
print(clib.green + "Green text" + clib.reset)

# Bright colors
print(color.bright.cyan + "Bright cyan" + color.reset)

# Background colors
print(color.bg.yellow + "Yellow background" + color.reset)
print(color.bg.bright.blue + "Bright blue background" + color.reset)

# Text styles
print(color.bold.red + "Bold red" + color.reset)
print(color.underline.blue + "Underlined blue" + color.reset)
print(color.italic.green + "Italic green" + color.reset)
