easy-sgr-macros

The proc-macro implementation for the easy-sgr crate

Syntax

The syntax of this crate is a near mirror copy to that of the [fmt] module, with one addition: SGR.

These [keywords] get translated to [SGR] codes at compile time, using them is similar to formatting variables into string literals within the [fmt] crate, as you use block brackets within curly brackets: {[...]} to specify them. Each keyword within is to be separated by spaces.

Examples

```rust use easy_sgr::println;

println!("{[bold green on-red]}This is colorful"); println!("{[!bold default on-default]}This is not"); ```

Keywords

Simple

There are a set of 'simple' keywords, which are made up of a word:

• styles
  • reset | bold | dim | italic | underline | blink | inverse | hide | strike
• undo styles
  • !bold | !dim | !italic | !underline | !blink | !inverse | !hide | !strike
• foregrounds
  • black | red | green | yellow | blue | magenta | cyan | white | default
• backgrounds
  • on-black | on-red | on-green | on-yellow | on-blue | on-magenta | on-cyan | on-white | on-default
• reset
  • {[]}

reset is a little different than the others in that it is empty.

Complex

The more complex syntax is entirely reserved for color codes.

Colors are expected to be one of the following, optionally prefixed by 'on-' to indicate being a background color:

• u8 -> (38|48);5;u8
• u8,u8,u8 -> (38|48);2;u8;u8;u8

And, prefixed with # to indicate hex, but without any commas:

• #u8 -> (38|48);5;u8
• #u8u8u8 -> (38|48);2;u8;u8;u8

so some example colors could be

• on-15 -> 48;5;15
• 15,115,215 -> 38;2;15;115;215
• #0f -> 38;5;15
• on-#0f73d7 -> 48;2;15;115;215
