pgbar - A minimal progress bar written in rust 🦀

This is a Rust library to create progress bars on terminal. It provides an easy way to track the progress of some task, allowing the user to customize its appearance and behavior.

🎁 Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] pgbar = "*"

🧰 Usage

To use the library, first import it on your Rust project:

rust use pgbar::{ProgressBar, Style};

Then, create a new progress bar object with the desired configuration using the new() method:

rust let mut pb = ProgressBar::new(100, 10, Style::default());

The first parameter represents the maximum value of the progress bar, the second one is the estimated time to complete the task, and the third defines the style of the bar. You can customize it by creating a new Style struct with your preferred options.

After that, you can start tracking the progress of your task by calling the track() method:

rust pb.track();

This will update the progress bar until it reaches the maximum value defined.

You can also update, reset or recover the progress bar using the methods update(), reset() and recover(), respectively.

rust pb.update(50); pb.reset(); pb.recover();

Finally, to finish the progress bar, call the finish() method:

rust pb.finish();

🎨 Customization

The progress bar can be customized with the following options:

• symbol: the character used to represent the progress of the task (default: "*").
• width: the width of the progress bar in characters (default: 50).
• wrapper: the characters used to wrap the progress bar (default: "[]").
• color: the color of the progress bar (default: Cyan).
• time_to_finish: whether or not to show the estimated time to finish the task (default: true).

To customize these options, create a new Style struct with your preferred configuration and pass it as a parameter to the new() method:

```rust use termion::color;

let style = Style { symbol: "#".tostring(), width: 30, wrapper: "()".tostring(), color: Some(&color::Red), timetofinish: false, }; let mut pb = ProgressBar::new(100, 10, style); ```

🚀 Example

Here is a simple example showing how to use the progress bar library:

```rust use pgbar::{ProgressBar, Style}; use std::thread; use std::time::Duration; use termion::color;

fn main() { let style = Style { symbol: "=".tostring(), width: 50, wrapper: "||".tostring(), color: Some(&color::Green), timetofinish: true, }; let mut pb = ProgressBar::new(100, 5, style);

for i in 0..=100 {
    pb.update(i);
    thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(50));
}

pb.finish();

} ```

This will create a progress bar with green color, the symbol "=" and the wrapper "||", updating its progress every 50 milliseconds until it reaches the maximum value of 100.
