ronilan/colors.crumb

A Crumb Usable providing terminal styling and RGB, HEX and ANSI conversion functions.

colors.crumb

colors.crumb is a Crumb usable providing basic terminal styling functions as well as access to RGB, HEX, ANSI conversion functions.

Styling can be applied to strings and also to strings within lists.

Usage

1. Download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ronilan/colors.crumb/main/colors.crumb
2. Place it in your Crumb project. (see: Crumb Template for an easy starter.)
3. Use it.

Examples

This code:

(use "./colors.crumb" {
  // loop forever
  (until "stop" {state n ->
    
    // print random slash with random color
    c = (add 16 (remainder (integer (add n (multiply (random) 100))) 216))
    (print (if (integer (add (random) 0.5)) {<- (color c "╱")} {<- (color c "╲")}))

    // wait to slow down animation
    (wait 0.001)
  })
})

will produce the following:

This code:

(use "./colors.crumb" {
  (loop 100 {i -> 
    i = (add i 1)
    (if (is (remainder i 15) 0) {
      (print (bold (color 88 (background 220 "fizzbuzz"))) "\n")
    } {
      (if (is (remainder i 3) 0) {
        (print (color 36 "fizz") "\n")
      } {
        (if (is (remainder i 5) 0) {
          (print (color "#88ddff" "buzz") "\n")
        } {
          (print (color (list 255 0 127) (string i)) "\n")
        })
      })
    })
  })
})

will produce the following:

This code:

(use "./colors.crumb" {

  (print "\e[H\e[2J")
  (print "Specify color in ANSI, Hex, RGB:\n")
    (print "  " (color 208 "208")  "\n")
    (print "  " (color "#dd9900" "#dd9900")  "\n")
    (print "  " (color (list 221 153 0) "(list 221, 153, 0)") "\n\n")

  (print "Specify background in ANSI, Hex, RGB:\n")
    (print "  " (background 208 "208")  "\n")
    (print "  " (background "#dd9900" "#dd9900")  "\n")
    (print "  " (background (list 221 153 0) "(list 221, 153, 0)") "\n\n")

  (print "Use both:\n")
    (print "  " (color "#ddff00" (background 208 "208")) "\n")
    (print "  " (color "#ddff00" (background "#dd9900" "#dd9900")) "\n")
    (print "  " (color "#ddff00" (background (list 221 153 0) "(list 221, 153, 0)")) "\n\n")

  (print "Use other styling:\n")
    (print "  " (bold "bold") "\n")
    (print "  " (faint "faint") "\n")
    (print "  " (underline "underline") "\n")
    (print "  " (inverse "inverse") "\n\n")

    (print 
      "  " 
      (background 166 (underline "Crumb:")) 
      (color "#999999" "a programming language that is") 
      (bold (color "#ff00dd" "simple,")) 
      (bold (color "#00ffdd" "not easy.")) 
      "\n\n"
    )

})
