🌈 Terminal string styling

style

style is a simple terminal string styling package. Its API is a port of the popular chalk package for javascript.

Install

$ pip install style

Usage

import style

print(style.red('Hello', style.bold('world') + '!'))

API

style.style*[.style](*objects, sep=' ')

Chain styles and call the last one as a method with an argument. Order doesn't matter, and later styles take precedence in case of a conflict, e.g. style.red.yellow.green is equivalent to style.green. Styles can be nested.

Multiple arguments will be separated by sep, a space by default.

style.enabled

Color support is automatically detected, but can also be changed manually.

• set style.enabled to True or False
• use the command line parameter --color or --no-color
