Command	Description
xulbux-help	shows some information about the library

Usage

Import the full library under the alias xx, so its modules and main classes are accessible with xx.module.Class, xx.MainClass.method():

import xulbux as xx

So you don't have to import the full library under an alias, you can also import only certain parts of the library's contents:

# LIBRARY SUB MODULES
from xulbux.base.consts import COLOR, CHARS, ANSI
# Main Classes
from xulbux import Code, Color, Console, ...
# module specific imports
from xulbux.color import rgba, hsla, hexa

Modules

Main Module	Contents
	Sub Module Contents Constant values used throughout the library. Custom exception classes used throughout the library. Custom type definitions used throughout the library.
	Code class, which includes methods to work with code strings.
	rgba hsla hexa Color classes, which include methods to work with colors in various formats.

	File class, which includes methods to work with files and file paths.
	FormatCodes class, which includes methods to print and work with strings that contain special formatting codes, which are then converted to ANSI codes for pretty console output.
	Json class, which includes methods to read, create and update JSON files, with support for comments inside the JSON data.

	Regex class, which includes methods to dynamically generate complex regex patterns for common use cases.
	String class, which includes various utility methods for string manipulation and conversion.
	System class, which includes methods to interact with the underlying operating system.

Example Usage

This is what it could look like using this library for a simple but ultra good-looking color converter:

from xulbux.base.consts import COLOR, CHARS
from xulbux.color import hexa
from xulbux import Console


def main() -> None:

    # LET THE USER ENTER A HEXA COLOR IN ANY HEXA FORMAT
    input_clr = Console.input(
        "[b](Enter a HEXA color in any format) > ",
        start="\n",
        placeholder="#7075FF",
        max_len=7,
        allowed_chars=CHARS.HEX_DIGITS,
    )

    # ANNOUNCE INDEXING THE INPUT COLOR
    Console.log(
        "INDEX",
        "Indexing the input HEXA color...",
        start="\n",
        title_bg_color=COLOR.BLUE,
    )

    try:
        # TRY TO CONVERT THE INPUT STRING INTO A hexa() OBJECT
        hexa_color = hexa(input_clr)

    except ValueError:
        # ANNOUNCE THE INVALID INPUT COLOR AND EXIT THE PROGRAM
        Console.fail(
            "The input HEXA color is invalid.",
            end="\n\n",
            exit=True,
        )

    # ANNOUNCE STARTING THE CONVERSION
    Console.log(
        "CONVERT",
        "Converting the HEXA color into different types...",
        title_bg_color=COLOR.TANGERINE,
    )

    # CONVERT THE HEXA COLOR INTO THE TWO OTHER COLOR FORMATS
    rgba_color = hexa_color.to_rgba()
    hsla_color = hexa_color.to_hsla()

    # ANNOUNCE THE SUCCESSFUL CONVERSION
    Console.done(
        "Successfully converted color into different types.",
        end="\n\n",
    )

    # PRETTY PRINT THE COLOR IN DIFFERENT FORMATS
    Console.log_box_bordered(
        f"[b](HEXA:) [i|white]({hexa_color})",
        f"[b](RGBA:) [i|white]({rgba_color})",
        f"[b](HSLA:) [i|white]({hsla_color})",
    )


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
