📩 Installation 📩

npm install fancy-printer

✨ Fanciness continues on Web ✨


<script src="./node_modules/fancy-printer/index.js"></script>

<script>
    printer.log("Hello, world!");
</script>

Note: Web doesn't have features like logging to a file because it is not possible.

🔧 Usage 🔧

✨ Creating a printer ✨

const printer = require("fancy-printer");

const options = {
    // some options...
};
const newPrinter = printer.create(options);
newPrinter.log("Hello, world!");
// OR just use it normally
printer.log("Hello, world!");

✨ Default tags ✨

printer.pass("Passed!");
printer.fail("Failed!");
printer.error("An error occurred!");
printer.warn("Something might go wrong!");
printer.info("This is a message!");
printer.debug("Check the line 5!");
printer.notice("Attention please!");
printer.log("An original log!");
printer.ready("I am ready!");
printer.assert(5 % 2 === 0, "5 is not divisible by 2!");

printer.tag("pass", "This worked as well!");

✨ Creating tags ✨

printer.addTag("test", "HEY!", "", "#bb7373", "#ffff00");
printer.tag("test", "Hello, world!");

✨ Formatting & Using/adding components & Changing the chr ✨

const DEFAULT_FORMAT = "%namespace%date %time %tag %text"; // this is the default format
printer.options.namespace = "My namespace"
// OR
const newPrinter = printer.namespace("My new namespace!");

printer.options.namespace = "";
printer.setFormat("%date %time %tag %text");
printer.info("Hello, world!");
printer.setFormat("%date %time %tag > %text");
printer.info("Hello, world!");
printer.setFormat("%date %time %tag %2plus2 %text");
printer.addComponent("2plus2", () => {
    return 2 + 2;
});
printer.info("Hello, world!");

printer.setCharacter("!");
printer.setFormat("!date !time !tag !2plus2 !text");
printer.info("Hello, world!");

printer.setFormat("!stack or just [ !filename:!line:!column ] !date !time !tag !2plus2 !text");
printer.info("Hello, world!");

✨ Making the printer global ✨

printer.makeGlobal();

// some file.js where printer nor Printer is defined
printer.info("test");
Printer.static.info("test");

printer.makeGlobal(true);

// Now you can use the static printer from `console`
console.info("test");

✨ Logging to a specific file ✨

printer.addFile("./myFile.txt");

✨ Logging to a file periodically ✨

printer.makeLoggerFile();
// which makes a "logs" folder and puts a unique file in it to log into
// OPTIONAL:
printer.makeLoggerFile({
    folder: "./myFolder/", // Default: logs. This is where the log files will be saved in.
    format: "my log %DD-%MM-%YYYY.txt", // Default: log-DD-MM-YYYY.log. The format of the name of the file.
    month: "long", // the type of the %month, expects: "numeric" | "2-digit" | "long" | "short" | "narrow"
    day: "long", // the type of the %month variable, expects: "long" | "short" | "narrow"
});

✨ Formatting arguments ✨

Y: Year
M: Month
D: Day
h: Hour
m: Minute
s: Second
S: Millisecond
month Gives the name of the month
day Gives the name of the day

✨ Padding on formatting arguments ✨

The length of the argument determines how long it should be.

For example if it's DD and if the day is 4, it becomes 04.

If it's YY and if the year is 2023, it becomes 23. (so it cuts from the end)

✨ Logging to a file with a hash ✨

printer.makeHashedLoggerFile();
// which makes a "logs" folder and puts a unique file in it to log into
// OPTIONAL:
printer.makeHashedLoggerFile({
    folder: "./myFolder/", // Default: logs. This is where the log files will be saved in.
    radix: 16, // default 16, max 32. This is the time encoder setting
    divide: 3, // Default: 3. Divides the current timestamp into 10^divide. For example 3 would divide it to 1000 which makes it depend on seconds.
    format: "my log %t.txt" // Default: log-%t.log. The format of the name of the file. %t will be replaced by the time
});

✨ Substitutions ✨

✨ %o, %O, %s, %v ✨

Puts the object into place by making it a string.

Note: %o and %O only works on objects. %s only works on strings. %v works on everything.

printer.log("Hello, %s!", "world");

✨ %d, %i ✨

Puts the integer into place.

printer.log("Hello, %d!", 12.34);
printer.log("Hello, %i!", 12.34);

✨ %f ✨

Puts the floating number into place.

printer.log("Hello, %f!", 12.34);

✨ %c ✨

Adds styling to the rest of the text. Uses CSS syntax.

printer.log("Hello, %cthis is red!%c and now it's blue!", "color: red", "color: blue");

| Property | Default | Expected type | Description | |--------------------------------|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | background or background-color | None | Color | The background color of the text | | color | None | Color | The color of the text | | font-weight | normal | normal | bold | bolder | A positive integer | The boldness of the text | | text-decoration | none | underline | line-through | linethrough | strike-through | strikethrough | The decorations of the text. More than one can be used by separating with space | | padding | 0 | A positive integer | The amount of white space to add on both sides | | font-style | normal | normal | italic | oblique | The style of the text. |

✨ Reading input ✨

const {inline} = printer;

(async () => {
    inline.log("Type something: ");
    const something = await printer.readLine();
    printer.warn("You entered: %s", something);

    inline.log("Press a key: ");
    const key = await printer.readKey();
    inline.print(key + "\n");
    printer.warn("You pressed: %s", key);

    inline.log("Enter your password: ");
    const pass = await printer.readPassword({character: "*"}); // Character is "*" by default.
    printer.warn("You entered: %s", pass);

    const list = ["an apple", "a grape", "a watermelon", "a piano!"];
    inline.log("Select something: ");
    const selection = await printer.readSelection(list);
    printer.warn("You entered: %s", list[selection]);

    const list2 = ["audi", "ford", "lamborghini", "beans"];
    inline.log("Select something: ");
    const selection2 = await printer.readSelectionListed(list2);
    printer.warn("You entered: %s", list2[selection2]);
})();

✨ Utilities ✨

printer.print("Hello, world!"); // No substitution or formatting will be used and won't break line.

printer.printLine("Hello, world!"); // No substitution or formatting will be used and will break line.
printer.println("Hello, world!");

printer.println(printer.substitute("Hello,%c world!", "color: red")); // Manual substitution

printer.print("Hello! You!")
printer.backspace(5); // Erases 5 characters from the text written.
printer.cursorUp(5); // Moves 5 up.
printer.cursorRight(5); // Moves 5 right
printer.cursorDown(5); // Moves 5 down
printer.cursorLeft(5); // Moves 5 left

printer.clear(); // Clears the console (it's not included in the screenshot)

✨ Fast Styling ✨

NOTE: This feature is disabled by default! This first line will enable it:

printer.options.styleSubstitutionsEnabled = true;

printer.info(
    "&0This is black",
    "&1This is blue",
    "&2This is green",
    "&3This is cyan",
    "&4This is red",
    "&5This is purple",
    "&6This is gold",
    "&7This is gray",
    "&8This is bold gray",
    "&9This is light blue",
    "&aThis is light green",
    "&bThis is cyan",
    "&cThis is light red",
    "&dThis is pink",
    "&eThis is yellow",
    "&fThis is white",
    "&lThis is bold",
    "&mThis is strike-through",
    "&nThis is underlined",
    "&oThis is italic",
    "&rThis will reset the styling",
    "&tBack to the 'info' tag's text color"
);

printer.addStyle("h", "color: red; background: yellow");

printer.info("my own styling starts &hnow! yay!");

✨ Presets ✨

✨ Inline Preset ✨

This preset basically stops putting a line break at the end of logs.

Can be achieved by doing printer.options.newLine = false or just using the existing preset:

const {inline} = printer;

inline.log("Hello, ");
inline.print("world!");

✨ Raw Preset ✨

This preset basically removes tags, dates and time from the format.

Can be achieved by doing printer.setFormat("%text") or just using the existing preset:

const {raw} = printer;

raw.log("Hello, world!");
raw.log("%cNeeds some coloring!", "color: red");

✨ Brackets Preset ✨

This preset is a custom preset requested by a user.

Can be achieved by using the preset:

const {brackets} = printer;

brackets.pass("Passed!");
brackets.fail("Failed!");
brackets.error("An error occurred!");
brackets.warn("Something might go wrong!");
brackets.info("This is a message!");
brackets.debug("Check the line 5!");
brackets.notice("Attention please!");
brackets.log("An original log!");
brackets.ready("I am ready!");
brackets.assert(5 % 2 === 0, "5 is not divisible by 2!");

🌟 HTML Preset 🌟

This preset is for web.

Makes the log result a html content and puts it into the document.


<script>
    const {html} = printer;

    html.updateBodyStyle(document.body);

    html.pass("Passed!");
    html.fail("Failed!");
    html.error("An error occurred!");
    html.warn("Something might go wrong!");
    html.info("This is a message!");
    html.debug("Check the line 5!");
    html.notice("Attention please!");
    html.log("An original log!");
    html.ready("I am ready!");
    html.assert(5 % 2 === 0, "5 is not divisible by 2!");

    html.options.htmlOut = a => printer.warning(a);

    html.log("test!");
    printer.notice("^^^ The text up there has been logged by using html.options.htmlOut! ^^^");
</script>
