Highlights

  • Macro-based: Increases compile-time efficiency and boosts safety.
  • Innovative Styling: Compose styles in an array-like format such as [red, bold, underline].
  • Extensive Type Support: All types implementing std::fmt::Display trait are supported, offering wide-ranging adaptability.
  • Full Color and Style support: Modifiers / Foreground colors / Background colors / Bright foreground colors / Bright background colors.
  • Zero dependencies: Cleaner code-base with no third-party interference.
  • Supports tty detection: Avoids styling when the tty lacks color support, Use set_color_enabled for manual enable control.

Installation

This crate works with Cargo. Add the following to your Cargo.toml dependencies section:

[dependencies]
sty = "0.3"

Basic usage

use sty::{
    sty,
    style::{red, underline},
};
// or
// use sty::{ sty, red, underline };

println!("{}", sty!("Hello world!", [red]));

// Use `sty!` macro for combination of multiple styles
println!("{}", sty!("Hello world!", [red, underline]));

// Use `sty!` macro for multiple input types
println!("{}", sty!(123, [red, underline]));

// Use style function is simple for `&str` input
println!("{}", red("Hello world!"));
println!("{}", underline(&red("Hello world!")));

[!TIP] In style combinations, the styles that are specified later take precedence, For example:

use sty::{ sty, style::* };
sty!("str", [red, green, blue]); // blue
sty!("str", [red, underline, reset]); // reset

[!TIP] If tty environment does not support color, default output will be printed without any styling, Use set_color_enabled for manual enable control, For example:

use sty::{ set_color_enabled, is_color_enabled, sty, style::* };
let enabled = is_color_enabled();
set_color_enabled(false);
sty!("123", [red]); // no color
set_color_enabled(true);
sty!("123", [red]); // red
set_color_enabled(enabled);

sty! Macro

The sty! macro is a powerful utility conveniently used to apply a collection of style manipulations to your input. This macro allows you to seamlessly incorporate text properties with an intuitive syntax.

use sty::{ sty, style::{red, underline} };
println!("{}", sty!("Hello world!", [red, underline]));

In this example, red and underline are both style transformations, and the sty! macro returns a newly styled text instance with all these styling elements applied. Multiple styles can be applied simultaneously, and the output will be a combination of all.

Supported input types

For any type that has implemented the std::fmt::Display trait, like:

  • &str
  • String
  • numbers(usize, i8, i16, i32, i64, i128, u8, u16, u32, u64, u128, f32, f64)
  • bool
  • ...

Style function

Each style function can be combine with sty! macro or used separately, for example:

use sty::{
    sty,
    style::{red, underline},
};
// or
// use sty::{ sty, red, underline };

sty!("Hello world!", [red, underline]);
// or
red("Hello world!");

[!TIP] The standalone style function only supports &str input type.

    • reset
    • bold
