chromaprint

Python module to facilitate effortless color terminal output.

Installation

Chromaprint requires Python 3.X.

Install via pip with pip install chromaprint

Usage

from chromaprint import print
print('green on magenta', fg='green', bg='magenta')

It's that easy.

Chromaprint contains one property colors and two methods print and set_default.

colors

chromaprint.colors is a tuple containing the names of all available colors. Attempts to use colors not in this tuple will raise an exception.

print()

The print() method functions the same as Python's built-in print method. Simply pass any strings you wish to print with the foreground color as fg='green' and background color as bg='magenta'. Color selections only apply to a single print, so the next print call will use the default colors. You can change the default colors using chromaprint.set_default()

set_default()

A custom set of default colors may be specified and changed at will. Simply call set_default() using the same syntax as chromaprint.print(), ie chromaprint.set_default(bg='green', fg='magenta'). You may set either bg, fg, or both. To return to the system default color output pass bg='default', fg='default'
