| ## Install
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| $ npm install --save kleur
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Usage
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| import kleur from 'kleur';
 | |
| 
 | |
| // basic usage
 | |
| kleur.red('red text');
 | |
| 
 | |
| // chained methods
 | |
| kleur.blue().bold().underline('howdy partner');
 | |
| 
 | |
| // nested methods
 | |
| kleur.bold(`${ white().bgRed('[ERROR]') } ${ kleur.red().italic('Something happened')}`);
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Chained Methods
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const { bold, green } = require('kleur');
 | |
| 
 | |
| console.log(bold().red('this is a bold red message'));
 | |
| console.log(bold().italic('this is a bold italicized message'));
 | |
| console.log(bold().yellow().bgRed().italic('this is a bold yellow italicized message'));
 | |
| console.log(green().bold().underline('this is a bold green underlined message'));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| <img src="shots/1.png" width="300" />
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Nested Methods
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const { yellow, red, cyan } = require('kleur');
 | |
| 
 | |
| console.log(yellow(`foo ${red().bold('red')} bar ${cyan('cyan')} baz`));
 | |
| console.log(yellow('foo ' + red().bold('red') + ' bar ' + cyan('cyan') + ' baz'));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| <img src="shots/2.png" width="300" />
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Conditional Support
 | |
| 
 | |
| Toggle color support as needed; `kleur` includes simple auto-detection which may not cover all cases.
 | |
| 
 | |
| > **Note:** Both `kleur` and `kleur/colors` share the same detection logic.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| import kleur from 'kleur';
 | |
| 
 | |
| // manually disable
 | |
| kleur.enabled = false;
 | |
| 
 | |
| // or use another library to detect support
 | |
| kleur.enabled = require('color-support').level > 0;
 | |
| 
 | |
| console.log(kleur.red('I will only be colored red if the terminal supports colors'));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > **Important:** <br>Colors will be disabled automatically in non [TTY contexts](https://nodejs.org/api/process.html#process_a_note_on_process_i_o). For example, spawning another process or piping output into another process will disable colorization automatically. To force colors in your piped output, you may do so with the `FORCE_COLOR=1` environment variable:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| $ node app.js #=> COLORS
 | |
| $ node app.js > log.txt  #=> NO COLORS
 | |
| $ FORCE_COLOR=1 node app.js > log.txt #=> COLORS
 | |
| $ FORCE_COLOR=0 node app.js > log.txt #=> NO COLORS
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## API
 | |
| 
 | |
| Any `kleur` method returns a `String` when invoked with input; otherwise chaining is expected.
 | |
| 
 | |
| > It's up to the developer to pass the output to destinations like `console.log`, `process.stdout.write`, etc.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The methods below are grouped by type for legibility purposes only. They each can be [chained](#chained-methods) or [nested](#nested-methods) with one another.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ***Colors:***
 | |
| > black — red — green — yellow — blue — magenta — cyan — white — gray — grey
 | |
| 
 | |
| ***Backgrounds:***
 | |
| > bgBlack — bgRed — bgGreen — bgYellow — bgBlue — bgMagenta — bgCyan — bgWhite
 | |
| 
 | |
| ***Modifiers:***
 | |
| > reset — bold — dim — italic* — underline — inverse — hidden — strikethrough*
 | |
| 
 | |
| <sup>* <em>Not widely supported</em></sup>
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Individual Colors
 | |
| 
 | |
| When you only need a few colors, it doesn't make sense to import _all_ of `kleur` because, as small as it is, `kleur` is not treeshakeable, and so most of its code will be doing nothing. In order to fix this, you can import from the `kleur/colors` submodule which _fully_ supports tree-shaking.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The caveat with this approach is that color functions **are not** chainable~!<br>Each function receives and colorizes its input. You may combine colors, backgrounds, and modifiers by nesting function calls within other functions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // or: import * as kleur from 'kleur/colors';
 | |
| import { red, underline, bgWhite } from 'kleur/colors';
 | |
| 
 | |
| red('red text');
 | |
| //~> kleur.red('red text');
 | |
| 
 | |
| underline(red('red underlined text'));
 | |
| //~> kleur.underline().red('red underlined text');
 | |
| 
 | |
| bgWhite(underline(red('red underlined text w/ white background')));
 | |
| //~> kleur.bgWhite().underline().red('red underlined text w/ white background');
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > **Note:** All the same [colors, backgrounds, and modifiers](#api) are available.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ***Conditional Support***
 | |
| 
 | |
| The `kleur/colors` submodule also allows you to toggle color support, as needed.<br>
 | |
| It includes the same initial assumptions as `kleur`, in an attempt to have colors enabled by default.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Unlike `kleur`, this setting exists as `kleur.$.enabled` instead of `kleur.enabled`:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| import * as kleur from 'kleur/colors';
 | |
| // or: import { $, red } from 'kleur/colors';
 | |
| 
 | |
| // manually disabled
 | |
| kleur.$.enabled = false;
 | |
| 
 | |
| // or use another library to detect support
 | |
| kleur.$.enabled = require('color-support').level > 0;
 | |
| 
 | |
| console.log(red('I will only be colored red if the terminal supports colors'));
 | |
| ```
 | |
|

| ## History
 | |
| 
 | |
| This project originally forked [`ansi-colors`](https://github.com/doowb/ansi-colors).
 | |
| 
 | |
| Beginning with `kleur@3.0`, the Chalk-style syntax (magical getter) has been replaced with function calls per key:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // Old:
 | |
| c.red.bold.underline('old');
 | |
| 
 | |
| // New:
 | |
| c.red().bold().underline('new');
 | |
| ```
 | |
| > <sup><em>As I work more with Rust, the newer syntax feels so much better & more natural!</em></sup>
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you prefer the old syntax, you may migrate to `ansi-colors` or newer `chalk` releases.<br>Versions below `kleur@3.0` have been officially deprecated.
