Use the keywords below: - `left` _(default)_ - `center` - `right` - `top` _(Will be ignored if used with the spaceless option)_ - `bottom` _(Will be ignored if used with the spaceless option)_ ```sh $ cfonts "text" --align "center" ``` ![Align command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/align.png) #### -c, --colors Type: `` Default value: `['system']` With this setting you can set the colors for your font. Use the below color strings or a hex color. Provide colors in a comma-separated string, eg: `red,blue`. _(no spaces)_ If you use a hex color make sure you include the `#` prefix. _(In most terminals wrap the hex in quotes)_ The `system` color falls back to the system color of your terminal. 💡 There are [environment variables](#consistency) that can affect the display of colors in your terminal. - `system` _(default)_ - `black` - `red` - `green` - `yellow` - `blue` - `magenta` - `cyan` - `white` - `gray` - `redBright` - `greenBright` - `yellowBright` - `blueBright` - `magentaBright` - `cyanBright` - `whiteBright` - `#ff8800` _(any valid hex color)_ - `#f80` _(short form is supported as well)_ ```sh $ cfonts "text" --colors white,"#f80" ``` ![Colors command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/colors.png) #### -g, --gradient Type: `` Default value: `false` With this setting you can set a gradient over your output. This setting supersedes the color open. The gradient requires two colors, a start color and an end color from left to right. _(If you want to set your own colors for the gradient, use the [transition](#-t---transition-gradient) option.)_ `cfonts` will then generate a gradient through as many colors as it can find to make the output most impressive. Provide two colors in a comma-separated string, eg: `red,blue`. _(no spaces)_ If you use a hex color make sure you include the `#` prefix. _(In the terminal wrap the hex in quotes)_ - `black` - `red` - `green` - `yellow` - `blue` - `magenta` - `cyan` - `white` - `gray` - `grey` - `#ff8800` _(any valid hex color)_ - `#f80` _(short form is supported as well)_ ```sh $ cfonts "text" --gradient red,"#f80" ``` ![Gradient command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/gradient.png) #### -i, --independent-gradient Type: `` Default value: `false` Set this option to re-calculate the gradient colors for each new line. Only works in combination with the [gradient](#-g---gradient) option. ```sh $ cfonts "text|next line" --gradient red,"#f80" --independent-gradient ``` ![Independent gradient command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/independent-gradient.png) #### -t, --transition-gradient Type: `` Default value: `false` Set this option to generate your own gradients. Each color set in the gradient option will then be transitioned to directly. This option allows you to specify more than just two colors for your gradient. Only works in combination with the [gradient](#-g---gradient) option. ```sh $ cfonts "text" --gradient red,"#f80",green,blue --transition-gradient ``` ![Independent gradient command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/transition-gradient.png) #### -b, --background Type: `` Default value: `"transparent"` With this setting you can set the background colors for the output. Use the below color strings. Provide the background color from the below supported list, eg: 'white' - `transparent` _(default)_ - `black` - `red` - `green` - `yellow` - `blue` - `magenta` - `cyan` - `white` - `blackBright` - `redBright` - `greenBright` - `yellowBright` - `blueBright` - `magentaBright` - `cyanBright` - `whiteBright` - `#ff8800` _(any valid hex color)_ - `#f80` _(short form is supported as well)_ ```sh $ cfonts "text" --background "Green" ``` ![Background command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/background.png) #### -l, --letter-spacing Type: `` Default value: `1` Set this option to widen the space between characters. ```sh $ cfonts "text" --letter-spacing 2 ``` ![Letter spacing command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/letter-spacing.png) #### -z, --line-height Type: `` Default value: `1` Set this option to widen the space between lines. ```sh $ cfonts "text" --line-height 2 ``` ![Line height command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/line-height.png) #### -s, --spaceless Type: `` Default value: `false` Set this option to false if you don't want the plugin to insert two empty lines on top and on the bottom of the output. ```sh $ cfonts "text" --spaceless ``` ![Spaceless command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/spaceless.png) #### -m, --max-length Type: `` Default value: `0` This option sets the maximum characters that will be printed on one line. `cfonts` detects the size of your terminal but you can opt out and determine your own max width. `0` means no max width and the text will break at the edge of the terminal window. ```sh $ cfonts "text" --max-length 15 ``` ![Max length command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/max-length.png) #### -r, --raw-mode Type: `` Default value: `false` Set this option to make sure `cfonts` used `CRLF` (`\r\n`) over the default `LF` (`\n`) [line breaks](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline). This could be useful for terminal raw modes or on older windows machines. ```rust use crossterm::terminal; use std::io::Write; use cfonts; fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { terminal::enable_raw_mode()?; cfonts::say(cfonts::Options { text: String::from("Hello|world"), raw_mode: true, ..cfonts::Options::default() }); std::io::stdout().flush()?; terminal::disable_raw_mode()?; Ok(()) } ``` ![Raw mode command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/raw-mode.png) #### -e, --env Type: `` Default value: `cli` This option lets you use `cfonts` to generate HTML instead of ANSI code. Note that `max-length` will be set to very large. ```sh $ cfonts "text" --env browser ``` ![Max length command](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/env.png) ## Consistency `cfonts` detects what colors are supported on your platform. It sets a level of support automatically. In `cfonts` you can override this by passing in the `FORCE_COLOR` environment variable. ```sh FORCE_COLOR=3 cfonts "hello world" -c "#0088ff" ``` You can also use the `NO_COLOR` environment variable to set no color output for environments like CI. ```sh NO_COLOR="" cfonts "hello world" -c "#0088ff" ``` 💡 `FORCE_COLOR` overrides `NO_COLOR` if both are set. ![Color consistency via env vars](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dominikwilkowski/cfonts/released/img/color-consistency.png) ## License Copyleft (c) 2023 Dominik Wilkowski.
