# py-term
Python module to style terminal output, moving and positioning the cursor.
**Python 2 and 3 compatible**
## Installation
Install through **pip**.
```
$ pip install py-term
```
or get from source
```
$ git clone https://github.com/gravmatt/py-term.git
$ cd py-term
$ python setup.py install
```
## Import module
Import the module into your python project.
```
import term
```
## Usage
```
term.write('Hello, ')
term.write('Python!')
> Hello, Python!
term.writeLine('Hello')
term.writeLine('Python!')
> Hello
> Python!
```
## Style output
The first argument is the text output and all following arguments are for styling.
```
term.writeLine(text, *style)
Or
text = term.format(text, *style)
term.writeLine(text)
```
### Usage
```
term.writeLine('Hello, Python!')
term.writeLine('This text line will be green', term.green)
term.writeLine('Reverse the green color', term.green, term.reverse)
```
Or
```
output = term.format('Hello, ', term.green) + term.format('Python!', term.blue, term.bold)
term.writeLine(output)
term.write(term.format('All in one line', term.reverse))
```
#### Text align
**Center align**
```
# term.textCenter(text)
term.writeLine(term.textCenter('Super Python!'))
```
**Right align**
```
# term.textRight(text)
term.writeLine(term.textRight('Rene Tanczos (@gravmatt)'))
( Function term.right() to align text is depricated because of naming conflicts! )
```

## Remove style attributes
Removes style characters.
(Good to call before you count a string)
```
term.strip(formatted_text)
hello = term.red + 'hello, world' + term.off
print hello
# '\x1b[31mhello, world\x1b[0m\x1b[27m'
print term.strip(hello)
# hello, world
```
## Highlighting text
Simple highlighting of unformatted text strings
```
def callback(matching_text):
return term.blue + matching_text + term.off
output, match_count, array_of_positions = term.highlight(regex_pattern, text, callback)
```
Return a tuple.
output (index 0) = formatted text output
match_count (index 1) = match count of the pattern
array_of_positions (index 2) = array of tuples with start and stop points of the matches [(4, 6), (9, 11), ..]
## Set title
```
term.setTitle('Hello Terminal')
# or clear it
term.clearTitle()
```
## Set tab name
```
term.setTab('Hello Tab')
# or clear it
term.clearTab()
```
## Cursor position
Move the cursor to a specific position.
```
term.pos(line, column)
term.pos(2, 15)
```
Get the size of the terminal (lines and columns)
```
(30, 100) = term.getSize()
# (lines, colums) = term.getSize()
```
Move the cursor to the home position (1, 1).
```
term.homePos()
```
Moves the current cursor position up, down, left or right by the specified value.
```
term.up(value=1)
term.down(value=1)
term.left(value=1)
term.right(value=1)
```
Saves the current cursor position.
```
term.saveCursor()
```
Restore the previously stored cursor position.
```
term.restoreCursor()
```
Clear the terminal screen.
```
term.clear()
```
Clear the entire line on the current cursor position.
```
term.clearLine()
```
Clear line from the current cursor position to the end.
```
term.clearLineFromPos()
```
Clear line from begin to current cursor position.
```
