Logging

When logging what's going on in your application is crucial, I have dedicated functions for every situation.

timestamp: boolean; // Not required

Success

consoleKit.success(CheckOptions);

// CheckOptions

message: string;
timestamp: boolean; // Not required

Info

consoleKit.info(InfoOptions);

// InfoOptions

message: string;
timestamp: boolean; // Not required

Warn

consoleKit.warn(WarnOptions);

// WarnOptions

message: string;
timestamp: boolean; // Not required

Error

consoleKit.error(ErrorOptions);

// ErrorOptions

message: string;
timestamp: boolean; // Not required

Loading

This is kinda usefull to tell that your terminal is doing background stuff.

Start loader

consoleKit.startLoading(StartLoaderOptions);

// StartLoaderOptions

message: string;
timestamp: boolean; // Not required

Stop loader

consoleKit.stopLoading(StopLoaderOptions);

// StopLoaderOptions

clearLine: boolean; // Remove the loading line if true

Progress Bar

Like the loading but we know when the loading will finish.

Start progress bar

consoleKit.startProgress(StartProgressOptions);

// StartProgressOptions

message: string;
percentage: number;
timestamp: boolean; // Not required

Edit the actual progress bar

consoleKit.editProgress(EditProgressOptions);

// EditProgressOptions

percentage: number;
message: string;

End progress bar

consoleKit.endProgress(EndProgressOptions);

// EndProgressOptions

clearLine: boolean; // Remove the progress bar line if true

Prompt

If your user need to give you data, then the prompt is a good way to go.

Usage

consoleKit.prompt(PromptOptions);

// PromptOptions

message: string;
character: string; // Not required -- If you wish to replace "?", put your own icon here

Output

string;

YesNo

It's like prompt but for boolean values.

Usage

consoleKit.yesno(YesNoOptions);

// YesNoOptions

message: string;
defaultValue: boolean; // true = yes | false = no

Output

If the default value is false and the user send for example lol then the output will be false because he didn't put no/n or yes/y.

boolean;

Select

You have a list and your user have to select an item inside a list, then this will do the job.

consoleKit.select(SelectOptions);

values: Array<string>;
defaultValueIndex: number; // Not required -- Index number of the values array
selectedText: string; // Not required -- Custom the "[ • ]" (Item selected)
unselectedText: string; // Not required -- Custom the "[  ]" (Item not selected)
cleanafter: boolean; // Not required -- Remove the selection of the terminal when user finished
