A command-line color library with true color support, universal API methods and Windows support.

> **[中文说明](README.zh-CN.md)**

Basic color preview:

![basic-color](_examples/images/basic-color2.png)

Now, 256 colors and RGB colors have also been supported to work in Windows CMD and PowerShell:

![color-on-cmd-pwsh](_examples/images/color-on-cmd-pwsh.jpg)

## Features

  - Simple to use, zero dependencies
  - Supports rich color output: 16-color (4-bit), 256-color (8-bit), true color (24-bit, RGB)
    - 16-color output is the most commonly used and most widely supported, working on any Windows version
    - Since `v1.2.4` **the 256-color (8-bit), true color (24-bit) support windows CMD and PowerShell**
    - See [this gist](https://gist.github.com/XVilka/8346728) for information on true color support
  - Generic API methods: `Print`, `Printf`, `Println`, `Sprint`, `Sprintf`
  - Supports HTML tag-style color rendering, such as `<green>message</>`.
    - In addition to using built-in tags, it also supports custom color attributes
    - Custom color attributes support the use of 16 color names, 256 color values, rgb color values and hex color values
    - Support working on Windows `cmd` and `powerShell` terminal
  - Basic colors: `Bold`, `Black`, `White`, `Gray`, `Red`, `Green`, `Yellow`, `Blue`, `Magenta`, `Cyan`
  - Additional styles: `Info`, `Note`, `Light`, `Error`, `Danger`, `Notice`, `Success`, `Comment`, `Primary`, `Warning`, `Question`, `Secondary`
  - Support by set `NO_COLOR` for disable color or use `FORCE_COLOR` for force open color render.
  - Support Rgb, 256, 16 color conversion

## 256-color usage

> 256 colors support Windows CMD, PowerShell environment after `v1.2.4`

### Set the foreground or background color

- `color.C256(val uint8, isBg ...bool) Color256`

```go
c := color.C256(132) // fg color
c.Println("message")
c.Printf("format %s", "message")

c := color.C256(132, true) // bg color
c.Println("message")
c.Printf("format %s", "message")
```

### 256-color style

Can be used to set foreground and background colors at the same time.

- `S256(fgAndBg ...uint8) *Style256`

```go
s := color.S256(32, 203)
s.Println("message")
s.Printf("format %s", "message")
```

with options:

```go
s := color.S256(32, 203)
s.SetOpts(color.Opts{color.OpBold})

s.Println("style with options")
s.Printf("style with %s\n", "options")
```

Run demo: `go run ./_examples/color_256.go`

![color-tags](_examples/images/color-256.png)

## RGB/True color

> RGB colors support Windows `CMD`, `PowerShell` environment after `v1.2.4`

**Preview:**

> Run demo: `Run demo: go run ./_examples/color_rgb.go`

![color-rgb](_examples/images/color-rgb.png)

example:

```go
color.RGB(30, 144, 255).Println("message. use RGB number")

color.HEX("#1976D2").Println("blue-darken")
color.HEX("#D50000", true).Println("red-accent. use HEX style")

color.RGBStyleFromString("213,0,0").Println("red-accent. use RGB number")
color.HEXStyle("eee", "D50000").Println("deep-purple color")
```

### Set the foreground or background color

- `color.RGB(r, g, b uint8, isBg ...bool) RGBColor`

```go
c := color.RGB(30,144,255) // fg color
c.Println("message")
c.Printf("format %s", "message")

c := color.RGB(30,144,255, true) // bg color
c.Println("message")
c.Printf("format %s", "message")
```

Create a style from an hexadecimal color string:

- `color.HEX(hex string, isBg ...bool) RGBColor`

```go
c := color.HEX("ccc") // can also: "cccccc" "#cccccc"
c.Println("message")
c.Printf("format %s", "message")

c = color.HEX("aabbcc", true) // as bg color
c.Println("message")
c.Printf("format %s", "message")
```

### RGB color style

Can be used to set the foreground and background colors at the same time.

- `color.NewRGBStyle(fg RGBColor, bg ...RGBColor) *RGBStyle`

```go
s := color.NewRGBStyle(RGB(20, 144, 234), RGB(234, 78, 23))
s.Println("message")
s.Printf("format %s", "message")
```

Create a style from an hexadecimal color string:

- `color.HEXStyle(fg string, bg ...string) *RGBStyle`

```go
s := color.HEXStyle("11aa23", "eee")
s.Println("message")
s.Printf("format %s", "message")
```

with options:

```go
s := color.HEXStyle("11aa23", "eee")
s.SetOpts(color.Opts{color.OpBold})

s.Println("style with options")
s.Printf("style with %s\n", "options")
```

## HTML-like tag usage

**Supported** on Windows `cmd.exe` `PowerShell` .

```go
// use style tag
color.Print("<suc>he</><comment>llo</>, <cyan>wel</><red>come</>")
color.Println("<suc>hello</>")
color.Println("<error>hello</>")
color.Println("<warning>hello</>")

// custom color attributes
color.Print("<fg=yellow;bg=black;op=underscore;>hello, welcome</>\n")

// Custom label attr: Supports the use of 16 color names, 256 color values, rgb color values and hex color values
color.Println("<fg=11aa23>he</><bg=120,35,156>llo</>, <fg=167;bg=232>wel</><fg=red>come</>")
```

- `color.Tag`

```go
// set a style tag
color.Tag("info").Print("info style text")
color.Tag("info").Printf("%s style text", "info")
color.Tag("info").Println("info style text")
```

Run demo: `go run ./_examples/color_tag.go`

![color-tags](_examples/images/color-tags.png)

## Color convert

Supports conversion between Rgb, 256, 16 colors, `Rgb <=> 256 <=> 16`

```go
basic := color.Red
basic.Println("basic color")

c256 := color.Red.C256()
c256.Println("256 color")
c256.C16().Println("basic color")

rgb := color.Red.RGB()
rgb.Println("rgb color")
rgb.C256().Println("256 color")
```
