# Installation

Get
```
go get -u github.com/logrusorgru/aurora
```
Test
```
go test -cover github.com/logrusorgru/aurora
```

# Usage

### Simple

```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"

	. "github.com/logrusorgru/aurora"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println("Hello,", Magenta("Aurora"))
	fmt.Println(Bold(Cyan("Cya!")))
}

```

![simple png](https://github.com/logrusorgru/aurora/blob/master/simple.png)

### Printf

```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"

	. "github.com/logrusorgru/aurora"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Printf("Got it %d times\n", Green(1240))
	fmt.Printf("PI is %+1.2e\n", Cyan(3.14))
}

```

![printf png](https://github.com/logrusorgru/aurora/blob/master/printf.png)

### aurora.Sprintf

```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"

	. "github.com/logrusorgru/aurora"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println(Sprintf(Magenta("Got it %d times"), Green(1240)))
}

```

![sprintf png](https://github.com/logrusorgru/aurora/blob/master/sprintf.png)

### Enable/Disable colors

```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"flag"

	"github.com/logrusorgru/aurora"
)

// colorizer
var au aurora.Aurora

var colors = flag.Bool("colors", false, "enable or disable colors")

func init() {
	flag.Parse()
	au = aurora.NewAurora(*colors)
}

func main() {
	// use colorizer
	fmt.Println(au.Green("Hello"))
}

```
Without flags:

With `-colors` flag:

# Chains

The following samples are equal

```go
x := BgMagenta(Bold(Red("x")))
```

```go
x := Red("x").Bold().BgMagenta()
```

The second is more readable

# Colorize

There is `Colorize` function that allows to choose some colors and
format from a side

```go

func getColors() Color {
	// some stuff that returns appropriate colors and format
}

// [...]

func main() {
	fmt.Println(Colorize("Greeting", getColors()))
}

```
Less complicated example

```go
x := Colorize("Greeting", GreenFg|GrayBg|BoldFm)
```

Unlike other color functions and methods (such as Red/BgBlue etc)
a `Colorize` clears previous colors

```go
x := Red("x").Colorize(BgGreen) // will be with green background only
```

# Grayscale

```go
fmt.Println("  ",
	Gray(1-1, " 00-23 ").BgGray(24-1),
	Gray(4-1, " 03-19 ").BgGray(20-1),
	Gray(8-1, " 07-15 ").BgGray(16-1),
	Gray(12-1, " 11-11 ").BgGray(12-1),
	Gray(16-1, " 15-07 ").BgGray(8-1),
	Gray(20-1, " 19-03 ").BgGray(4-1),
	Gray(24-1, " 23-00 ").BgGray(1-1),
)
```

# 8-bit colors

Methods `Index` and `BgIndex` implements 8-bit colors.

| Index/BgIndex  |    Meaning      | Foreground | Background |
| -------------- | --------------- | ---------- | ---------- |
|      0-  7     | standard colors |   30- 37   |   40- 47   |
|      8- 15     | bright colors   |   90- 97   |  100-107   |
|     16-231     | 216 colors      |   38;5;n   |   48;5;n   |
|    232-255     | 24 grayscale    |   38;5;n   |   48;5;n   |

# Limitations

There is no way to represent `%T` and `%p` with colors using
a standard approach

```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"

	. "github.com/logrusorgru/aurora"
)

func main() {
	r := Red("red")
	var i int
	fmt.Printf("%T %p\n", r, Green(&i))
}
```

Output will be without colors

```
aurora.value %!p(aurora.value={0xc42000a310 768 0})
```

The obvious workaround is `Red(fmt.Sprintf("%T", some))`
