# better_term
A rust crate designed to allow easy styling of terminal output using standard ANSI escape codes.

## Usage
### Style
A struct used to style output
```rust
use better_term::Style;

// prints out Hello world! underlined and bold
let style = Style::default().underline().bold();

println!("{}Hello, world!", style);
```

### Color
A struct used to be simple for just changing colors
```rust
use better_term::Color;

// prints Hello, world! in green and red
println!("{}Hello, {}world!", Color::BrightGreen, Color::BrightRed);
```

### Flushing Styles and Colors
It may be useful to reset all the changes you have made, and go back to the default output style. the `flush_styles()` function is meant for this.
```rust
use better_term::{flush_styles};

// prints the text in rainbow colors
println!("{}This is red!", Color::Red);

// clear all colors and styles to reset to default
flush_styles();
println!("This is normal!");
```

### Input
```rust
use better_term::{read_input, yesno_prompt};

// gets a string from stdin, with a prompt
let input: String = read_input!("Please enter a value: ");

// gets true if the user enters a value for yes, and false if the user enters no
let prompt: bool = yesno_prompt!("Are you sure you want to enter {}?", input);

// ...
```

### Fancy
The `fancy` feature is not enabled by default. It currently adds the gradient() function which will return a gradient from a start color to an end color with a given length.  
More tools are planned for this feature in the future.
```rust
use better_term::fancy::gradient;
use better_term::Color;

// prints a gradient from red to green with 10 steps
let gradient = gradient((255, 0, 0), (0, 255, 0), 10);
for color in gradient {
    println!("{}Hello, world!", color);
}
```
