@types/chalk
Advanced tools
@types/chalk provides TypeScript definitions for the chalk library, which is used to style terminal strings with colors and other text attributes.
Basic Coloring
This feature allows you to colorize text in the terminal. In this example, the text 'Hello world!' will be printed in blue.
import chalk from 'chalk';
console.log(chalk.blue('Hello world!'));
Text Styles
This feature allows you to apply different text styles such as bold, italic, underline, etc. In this example, the text 'Bold text' will be printed in bold.
import chalk from 'chalk';
console.log(chalk.bold('Bold text'));
Background Colors
This feature allows you to set background colors for the text. In this example, the text 'Red background' will be printed with a red background.
import chalk from 'chalk';
console.log(chalk.bgRed('Red background'));
Composing Styles
This feature allows you to compose multiple styles together. In this example, the text 'Styled text' will be printed in blue, with a red background and in bold.
import chalk from 'chalk';
console.log(chalk.blue.bgRed.bold('Styled text'));
The 'colors' package provides similar functionality to 'chalk' for styling terminal strings. It offers a wide range of colors and text styles, but its API is slightly different. For example, you can use 'console.log('hello'.green);' to print 'hello' in green.
The 'cli-color' package is another alternative for styling terminal strings. It offers a rich set of features including colors, text styles, and even cursor manipulation. Its API is also different from 'chalk', for example, 'console.log(clc.red('Error!'));' prints 'Error!' in red.
The 'kleur' package is a very lightweight alternative to 'chalk' for terminal string styling. It has a smaller footprint and a simpler API. For example, 'console.log(kleur.red('Error!'));' prints 'Error!' in red.
