[go, golang]
Small, fast library to create ANSI colored strings and codes.
import "github.com/mgutz/ansi"
// colorize a string, slowest method
msg := ansi.Color("foo", "red+b:white")
// create a closure to avoid escape code compilation
phosphorize := ansi.ColorFunc("green+h:black")
msg := phosphorize("Bring back the 80s!")
// cache escape codes and build strings manually, faster than closure
lime := ansi.ColorCode("green+h:black")
reset := ansi.ColorCode("reset")
msg := lime + "Bring back the 80s!" + reset
Other examples
Color(s, "red") // red Color(s, "red+b") // red bold Color(s, "red+B") // red blinking Color(s, "red+u") // red underline Color(s, "red+bh") // red bold bright Color(s, "red:white") // red on white Color(s, "red+b:white+h") // red bold on white bright Color(s, "red+B:white+h") // red blink on white bright
To view color combinations, from terminal.
