rich VS colorama

Ever wanted a clean way to adjust your external monitor's brightness and contrast from the command line? Let's build a simple yet beautiful Python CLI tool named monitor using the power of ddcutil and rich!

rich: Enhances the command-line interface with rich text formatting.

2.Rich Rich Rich is a modern Python library designed for rich text and beautiful formatting in the terminal. While Rich is often used for rendering formatted logs or terminal output, it also includes a TUI toolkit for building full-fledged interactive applications.

Out of curiosity, have you looked at it's sibling project "rich"?

https://github.com/Textualize/rich

Seems like it provides a TUI toolkit as well, and it looks a bit less weird than the approach Textual uses.

Was thinking of trying it out with a side project recently, but got pulled onto some other stuff instead so haven't yet started. Nor made the choice between them. ;)

I recently used the rich library to print tables in terminal.

Right! I usually use rich's print [1] for this kind of thing too, which I chose after testing a few other libraries that do pretty printing.

Try using https://github.com/tartley/colorama, that should straighten out most low level problems. If you still have issues, you need to adjust your color scheme in pycharm.

Pyshark: https://github.com/KimiNewt/pyshark Requests: https://github.com/psf/requests Colorama:https://github.com/tartley/colorama

from colorama import Fore, Style # Colorama doesn't support Underlined text because it # is struggling to make it work for windows users # https://github.com/tartley/colorama/issues/38 print(Fore.RED + Style.BRIGHT + 'Danger' + Style.NORMAL)

There are obviously a lot of libraries in python that color text, but I never loved their syntaxes, so I ended up creating this one a few years back. For comparison, this is how you print a red, bold, underlined string in **terminology**\: from terminology import in_red print(in_red('Danger').in_bold().underlined()) and this is how you do it with the other alternatives: **colorama** from colorama import Fore, Style # Colorama doesn't support Underlined text because it # is struggling to make it work for windows users # https://github.com/tartley/colorama/issues/38 print(Fore.RED + Style.BRIGHT + 'Danger' + Style.NORMAL)

The link to its github repository is this: colorama.

Escape sequences may vary depending on the terminal you use. You can try some package like Colorama which escapes those sequences and gives you the correct color in Windows. There is also Blessings.

As I mentioned earlier, Hype doesn't rely on any third-party library but then there are some plugins that third-party library powered Hype. For example, the color printing that is powered by colorama.

Looks really cool! Way more functionality than I'd ever need. I've been using colorama for color coding info, warning, and error messages in my Python projects. No complaints. From the feature list of rich it sounds like it probably pulls in a lot more dependencies?
