Colors

Colour

colour on PyPI.

Converts and manipulates common color representation (RGB, HSL, web, …)

This isn’t about printing, just switching between formats.

>>> from colour import Color
>>> c = Color("blue")
>>> c
<Color blue>

>>> c.hex
'#00f'
>>> c.hsl
(0.66..., 1.0, 0.5)
>>> c.rgb
(0.0, 0.0, 1.0)

How to print colored text in Python

ansicolors

Add ANSI colors and decorations to your strings.

Examples from the docs.

from colors import color

print(color('my string', fg='blue'))
print(color('some text', fg='red', bg='yellow', style='underline'))

As strings:

'\x1b[34mmy string\x1b[0m'
'\x1b[31;43;4msome text\x1b[0m'

Named colors

from colors import red, green, blue

print(red('This is red'))
print(green('This is green'))
print(blue('This is blue'))

print(red('red on blue', bg='blue'))
print(green('green on black', bg='black', style='underline'))

Using a partial.

from functools import partial
from colors import color

important = partial(color, fg='red', style='bold+underline'))

print(important('this is very important!'))

Or without a library.

Based on SO

This might be better as a dataclass or enum.

class color:

    END_C = '\033[0m'

    OK_BLUE = '\033[94m'
    OK_GREEN = '\033[92m'

    WARNING = '\033[93m'
    FAIL = '\033[91m'

    BOLD = '\033[1m'
    UNDERLINE = '\033[4m'

    HEADER = '\033[95m'


print(color.OK_BLUE, 'Hello, world', color.END_C)

As a function:

def ok_blue(value):
    print(color.OK_BLUE, value, color.END_C)
