Advanced tools
The nanospinner npm package is a lightweight and simple terminal spinner for Node.js applications. It is used to display a spinner in the terminal to indicate that a process is ongoing, which can enhance the user experience by providing visual feedback during long-running operations.
Basic Spinner
This feature allows you to create a basic spinner that starts immediately and stops after a specified duration, indicating success.
const { createSpinner } = require('nanospinner');
const spinner = createSpinner('Loading...').start();
setTimeout(() => {
spinner.success({ text: 'Done!' });
}, 2000);
Custom Spinner Styles
This feature allows you to customize the spinner style. In this example, the 'dots' style is used, and the spinner indicates failure after a specified duration.
const { createSpinner } = require('nanospinner');
const spinner = createSpinner('Loading...', { spinner: 'dots' }).start();
setTimeout(() => {
spinner.error({ text: 'Failed!' });
}, 2000);
Spinner with Custom Interval
This feature allows you to set a custom interval for the spinner's animation. The spinner text is updated midway through the process, and it indicates success at the end.
const { createSpinner } = require('nanospinner');
const spinner = createSpinner('Loading...', { interval: 100 }).start();
setTimeout(() => {
spinner.update({ text: 'Almost there...' });
}, 1000);
setTimeout(() => {
spinner.success({ text: 'Done!' });
}, 2000);
Ora is a more feature-rich terminal spinner library for Node.js. It offers a wide range of spinner styles, color customization, and promises support. Compared to nanospinner, Ora provides more customization options and is suitable for more complex use cases.
Cli-spinners is a collection of various spinner animations for use in the terminal. It is often used in conjunction with other libraries like Ora to provide a wide range of spinner styles. While cli-spinners itself does not manage the spinner state, it offers a large selection of animations that can be used with other spinner libraries.
Listr is a library for creating elegant CLI task lists with progress spinners. It is designed for managing multiple tasks with nested subtasks and provides a more structured approach to displaying progress in the terminal. Compared to nanospinner, Listr is more suitable for complex task management scenarios.
