Define your own styles

You can create your own styles like:

struct MyCustomStyle;
impl simple_colors::custom::Style for MyCustomStyle {
    fn get_style_code(&self) -> String {
        // This will return a code for bold and light blue text
        format!("{}{}",
            Style::Bold.get_style_code(),
            Color::LightBlue.get_style_code()
        )
    }
}

  println!("{}", color!(MyCustomStyle,
		 "This text is light blue and bold, \
	 	but on some terminals it is purple."))

enum MyCustomStyles {
    Style1,
    Style2
}
impl simple_colors::custom::Style for MyCustomStyles {
    fn get_style_code(&self) -> String {
        match self {
            // Style1 will be bold and light blue
            MyCustomStyles::Style1 => "\x1b[1m\x1b[94m".to_string(),
            // Style2 will be bold and red
            MyCustomStyles::Style2 =>
                format!(
                    "{}{}",
                    Style::Bold.get_style_code(),
                    Color::Red.get_style_code()
                )
        }
    }
}

 println!("{}", color!(MyCustomStyles::Style2, "Some text that is both bold and red"))
