term
A Rust library for terminfo parsing and terminal colors.
MSRV
1.63
Usage
Add this to your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
term = "*"
Packaging and Distributing
For all terminals but windows consoles, this library depends on a non-hashed (for now) terminfo database being present. For example, on Debian derivitives, you should depend on ncurses-term; on Arch Linux, you depend on ncurses; and on MinGW, you should depend on mingw32-terminfo.
Unfortunately, if you're using a non-windows console on Windows (e.g. MinGW, Cygwin, Git Bash), you'll need to set the TERMINFO environment variable to point to the directory containing the terminfo database.
lib.rs
:
Terminal formatting library.
This crate provides the Terminal
trait, which abstracts over an ANSI
Terminal to provide color printing, among other things. There are two
implementations, the TerminfoTerminal
, which uses control characters from
a terminfo database, and WinConsole
, which uses the Win32 Console
API.
Usage
This crate is on crates.io and can be
used by adding term
to the dependencies in your project's Cargo.toml
.
[dependencies]
term = "*"
Examples
use std::io::prelude::*;
let mut t = term::stdout().unwrap();
t.fg(term::color::GREEN).unwrap();
write!(t, "hello, ").unwrap();
t.fg(term::color::RED).unwrap();
writeln!(t, "world!").unwrap();
t.reset().unwrap();
