newyears
About
This is a very basic countdown to the New Year that will (by default) only run on December 31st. If it is forced to run on the current date it will countdown to midnight.
I'm not that great at Rust, I didn't have too much time to optimize it so there's probably a lot og bugs.
Example
Installation
This can be installed via cargo via:
cargo install newyears
Usage
```
newyears - A simple New Year's countdown written in Rust
usage: newyears [options]
description:
This is a simple counter to midnight that will, by default, only run on December 31st of the current year. You can force it to run on the current day but it will only count to midnight because I wrote this in one day before New Year's and didn't have time to learn more Rust
options:
-h, --help display this menu
-r , --radius set radius of the New Year's ball to the integer N (default: 7, min: 3, max: 10)
-c , --color set the color of the New Year's ball and countdown message to the color code C
see available color codes below
-t , --circle-thickness set the thickness of the New' Years ball to the integer N (default: 1, min: 1, max: 3)
-b , --bar-color set the color of the bar to the color code C
-B , --bar-char set the character that the bar is comprised of (default: '|')
note: must be a single character
-T , --bar-thickness set the thickness of the bar (default: 3, min: 1, max: 5)
-m , --message set the message that will be displayed in big ASCII text at the end of the countdown
-M , --message-color set the color of the message being displayed at the end to the color code C
-i , --time-color set the color of the countdown on the New Year's ball to the color code C
-n, --now make the coutndown start immediately
this effectively just makes a countdown to midnight of the current day and does not do a countdown to New Year's of the current year
color codes:
0 - red
1 - yellow
2 - green
3 - blue
4 - cyan
5 - magenta
6 - white
7 - random
