ansi.js
is a module for Node.js that provides an easy-to-use API for
writing ANSI escape codes to Stream
instances. ANSI escape codes are used to do
fancy things in a terminal window, like render text in colors, delete characters,
lines, the entire window, or hide and show the cursor, and lots more!
Stream
instance.Install with npm
:
$ npm install ansi
var ansi = require('ansi')
, cursor = ansi(process.stdout)
// You can chain your calls forever:
cursor
.red() // Set font color to red
.bg.grey() // Set background color to grey
.write('Hello World!') // Write 'Hello World!' to stdout
.bg.reset() // Reset the bgcolor before writing the trailing \n,
// to avoid Terminal glitches
.write('\n') // And a final \n to wrap things up
// Rendering modes are persistent:
cursor.hex('#660000').bold().underline()
// You can use the regular logging functions, text will be green:
console.log('This is blood red, bold text')
// To reset just the foreground color:
cursor.fg.reset()
console.log('This will still be bold')
// to go to a location (x,y) on the console
// note: 1-indexed, not 0-indexed:
cursor.goto(10, 5).write('Five down, ten over')
// to clear the current line:
cursor.horizontalAbsolute(0).eraseLine().write('Starting again')
// to go to a different column on the current line:
cursor.horizontalAbsolute(5).write('column five')
// Clean up after yourself!
cursor.reset()
