# picocolors
The tiniest and the fastest library for terminal output formatting with ANSI colors.
```javascript
import pc from "picocolors"
console.log(
pc.green(`How are ${pc.italic(`you`)} doing?`)
)
```
- **No dependencies.**
- **14 times** smaller and **2 times** faster than chalk.
- Used by popular tools like PostCSS, SVGO, Stylelint, and Browserslist.
- Node.js v6+ & browsers support. Support for both CJS and ESM projects.
- TypeScript type declarations included.
- [`NO_COLOR`](https://no-color.org/) friendly.
## Motivation
With `picocolors` we are trying to draw attention to the `node_modules` size
problem and promote performance-first culture.
## Prior Art
Credits go to the following projects:
- [Nanocolors](https://github.com/ai/nanocolors) by [@ai](https://github.com/ai)
- [Colorette](https://github.com/jorgebucaran/colorette) by [@jorgebucaran](https://github.com/jorgebucaran)
- [Kleur](https://github.com/lukeed/kleur) by [@lukeed](https://github.com/lukeed)
- [Colors.js](https://github.com/Marak/colors.js) by [@Marak](https://github.com/Marak)
- [Chalk](https://github.com/chalk/chalk) by [@sindresorhus](https://github.com/sindresorhus)

## Usage
Picocolors provides an object which includes a variety of text coloring and formatting functions
```javascript
import pc from "picocolors"
```
The object includes following coloring functions: `black`, `red`, `green`, `yellow`, `blue`, `magenta`, `cyan`, `white`, `gray`.
```javascript
console.log(`I see a ${pc.red("red door")} and I want it painted ${pc.black("black")}`)
```
The object also includes following background color modifier functions: `bgBlack`, `bgRed`, `bgGreen`, `bgYellow`, `bgBlue`, `bgMagenta`, `bgCyan`, `bgWhite` and bright variants `bgBlackBright`, `bgRedBright`, `bgGreenBright`, `bgYellowBright`, `bgBlueBright`, `bgMagentaBright`, `bgCyanBright`, `bgWhiteBright`.
```javascript
console.log(
pc.bgBlack(
pc.white(`Tom appeared on the sidewalk with a bucket of whitewash and a long-handled brush.`)
)
)
```
Besides colors, the object includes following formatting functions: `dim`, `bold`, `hidden`, `italic`, `underline`, `strikethrough`, `reset`, `inverse` and bright variants `blackBright`, `redBright`, `greenBright`, `yellowBright`, `blueBright`, `magentaBright`, `cyanBright`, `whiteBright`.
```javascript
for (let task of tasks) {
console.log(`${pc.bold(task.name)} ${pc.dim(task.durationMs + "ms")}`)
}
```
The library provides additional utilities to ensure the best results for the task:
- `isColorSupported` — boolean, explicitly tells whether or not the colors or formatting appear on the screen
```javascript
import pc from "picocolors"
if (pc.isColorSupported) {
console.log("Yay! This script can use colors and formatters")
}
```
- `createColors(enabled)` — a function that returns a new API object with manually defined color support configuration
```javascript
import pc from "picocolors"
let { red, bgWhite } = pc.createColors(options.enableColors)
```
## Replacing `chalk`
1. Replace package name in import:
```diff
- import chalk from 'chalk'
+ import pico from 'picocolors'
```
2. Replace variable:
```diff
- chalk.red(text)
+ pico.red(text)
```
3. Replace chains to nested calls:
```diff
- chalk.red.bold(text)
+ pico.red(pico.bold(text))
```
4. You can use [`colorize-template`](https://github.com/usmanyunusov/colorize-template)
to replace chalks tagged template literal.
```diff
+ import { createColorize } from 'colorize-template'
+ let colorize = createColorize(pico)
- chalk.red.bold`full {yellow ${"text"}}`
+ colorize`{red.bold full {yellow ${"text"}}}`
```
