Clor is a tiny alternative to colors.js or Chalk.
npm install clorvar $ = require("clor")
$.red("hey")
//→ \u001b[31mhey\u001b[0m
$.underline.bold.bgBlue.yellow("howdy!")
//→ \u001b[4m\u001b[1m\u001b[44m\u001b[33mhowdy!\u001b[0m
// You can add new lines with `line` or \n
$("1st line").line("2nd line").red.line("3rd line")
//→ 1st line\u001b[0m\n2nd line\u001b[0m\u001b[31m\n3rd line\u001b[0mIn Chalk you concatenate strings to compose your output:
console.log(
chalk.red.bold("fee") + "\n" + chalk.inverse("fi") + "\n" + chalk.underline("fo")
)In Clor you can concatenate and use any style property as a function
console.log(`${clor.red.bold("fee").line.inverse("fi").line.underline("fo")}`)console.log(String(
clor.red.bold("fee").line.inverse("fi").line.underline("fo")
))You can get the string and styles using string
console.log(
clor.red.bold("fee").line.inverse("fi").line.underline("fo").string
)or use the log() wrapper to console.log()
clor.red.bold("fee").line.inverse("fi").line.underline("fo").log(/* args */)You can also provide your own logger function
clor.red.bold("hi").log(function (args) {
process.stdout.write("[" + timestamp() + "] " + this)
}/*, ... */)Inside the logger wrapper
thisis bound to the string.
In just a few lines of code Clor packs a lot of interesting functionality.
Create custom styles easily:
const Style = {
head: $.bold.underline.green,
file: $.blue.bold("\"%s\""),
date: $.yellow("{{").gray(datefmt(new Date(), "HH:MM:ss")).yellow("}}")
}
console.log(Style.head("Starting app..."))
console.log("Loading file " + Style.file + " on " + Style.date, file)
