loading_bar

About:

This my "Awesome" loading bar library.
The loading bar is a simple progress bar that can be used to show the progress of a long running process.
And different ways to advance the loading bar.

Installation:

Put the following in your Cargo.toml file under [dependencies]:

toml [dependencies] "loading_bar" = { git = 'https://github.com/mendelsshop/loading_bar' }

For a full example, see the example repo.

You can create a progress bar with the following code:

```rust use loading_bar::LoadingBar;

use loading_bar::{LoadingBar, Color}; // if you want to use the color feature

bar = LoadingBar::new(100, None); // this creates a new loading bar with 100 steps and the default color

bar = LoadingBar::new(100, Some(Color::Green)); // this creates a new loading bar with 100 steps and the green color ```

Note the following examples assume that you have imported the loading_bar crate.

You can incremt the progress of the loading bar with the following code:

```rust bar.advance(); // this increments the loading bar by 1 step // takes no paramters

bar.advance_by(10); // this increments the loading bar by 10 steps // takes a paramter of u16

bar.advancebypercent(100); // this increments the loading bar by 100% // takes a paramter of f32 ```

To change the color:

rust bar.change_color(Some(Color::Red)); // this changes the color of the loading bar to red // the change_color does not immediately change the color of the loading bar, it only changes the color when the next step is incremented when you print the bar next bar.change_color(None); // changes the color to white (the default color)

We can have a loading bar that that is automatically instaciated and incremented (We have no control over updating it manually):

rust LoadingBar::auto_run(10, 50, 10, Some(Color::Red)); // this creates a new loading bar lasts 10 seconds, with a length of 50, and starts at 10 bars with the color red. LoadingBar::auto_run(10, 50, 10, None); // as above but with the default color
