Package description

What is progress?

The 'progress' npm package is used to create a flexible text progress bar in the console. It is useful for tracking the progress of an operation in command-line applications.

What are progress's main functionalities?

Basic Progress Bar

This code sample demonstrates how to create a simple progress bar that updates every 100 milliseconds until it's complete.

const ProgressBar = require('progress');

let bar = new ProgressBar(':bar', { total: 10 });
let timer = setInterval(() => {
  bar.tick();
  if (bar.complete) {
    console.log('\nComplete!');
    clearInterval(timer);
  }
}, 100);

Custom Tokens

This code sample shows how to use custom tokens within the progress bar format to display additional information.

const ProgressBar = require('progress');

let bar = new ProgressBar(':current/:total (:percent) :bar :custom', { total: 20, width: 30 });
bar.tick({ custom: 'Token' });

Increment with Step

This code sample illustrates how to increment the progress bar by a step greater than one.

const ProgressBar = require('progress');

let bar = new ProgressBar(':bar', { total: 10 });
bar.tick(2);

Installation

npm install progress

Usage

First we create a ProgressBar, giving it a format string as well as the total, telling the progress bar when it will be considered complete. After that all we need to do is tick() appropriately.

var ProgressBar = require('progress');

var bar = new ProgressBar(':bar', { total: 10 });
var timer = setInterval(function(){
bar.tick();
  if (bar.complete) {
    console.log('\ncomplete\n');
    clearInterval(timer);
  }
}, 100);

Options:

  • total total number of ticks to complete
  • stream the output stream defaulting to stdout
  • complete completion character defaulting to "="
  • incomplete incomplete character defaulting to "-"

Tokens:

  • :bar the progress bar itself
  • :current current tick number
  • :total total ticks
  • :elapsed time elapsed in seconds
  • :percent completion percentage
  • :eta estimated completion time in seconds

Examples

Download

In our download example each tick has a variable influence, so we pass the chunk length which adjusts the progress bar appropriately relative to the total length.

var ProgressBar = require('../')
  , https = require('https');

var req = https.request({
    host: 'download.github.com'
  , port: 443
  , path: '/visionmedia-node-jscoverage-0d4608a.zip'
});

req.on('response', function(res){
  var len = parseInt(res.headers['content-length'], 10);

  console.log();
  var bar = new ProgressBar('  downloading [:bar] :percent :etas', {
      complete: '='
    , incomplete: ' '
    , width: 20
    , total: len
  });

  res.on('data', function(chunk){
    bar.tick(chunk.length);
  });

  res.on('end', function(){
    console.log('\n');
  });
});

req.end();

The code above will generate a progress bar that looks like this:
