|DownloadsTot| |DownloadsW|

Yaspin provides a full-featured terminal spinner to show the progress during long-hanging operations.

It is easy to integrate into existing codebase by using it as a context manager_
or as a function decorator_:

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin

# Context manager:
with yaspin():
    time.sleep(3)  # time consuming code

# Function decorator:
@yaspin(text="Loading...")
def some_operations():
    time.sleep(3)  # time consuming code

some_operations()

Yaspin also provides an intuitive and powerful API. For example, you can easily summon a shark:

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin

with yaspin().white.bold.shark.on_blue as sp:
    sp.text = "White bold shark in a blue sea"
    time.sleep(5)

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/shark.gif

Installation

From PyPI_ using pip package manager:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install --upgrade yaspin

Or install the latest sources from GitHub:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install https://github.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/archive/master.zip

Usage

Basic Example
/////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/basic_example.gif

.. code:: python

import time
from random import randint
from yaspin import yaspin

with yaspin(text="Loading", color="yellow") as spinner:
    time.sleep(2)  # time consuming code

    success = randint(0, 1)
    if success:
        spinner.ok("✅ ")
    else:
        spinner.fail("💥 ")

It is also possible to control spinner manually:

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin

spinner = yaspin()
spinner.start()

time.sleep(3)  # time consuming tasks

spinner.stop()

Run any spinner from cli-spinners_
////////////////////////////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/cli_spinners.gif

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin
from yaspin.spinners import Spinners

with yaspin(Spinners.earth, text="Earth") as sp:
    time.sleep(2)                # time consuming code

    # change spinner
    sp.spinner = Spinners.moon
    sp.text = "Moon"

    time.sleep(2)                # time consuming code

Any Colour You Like 🌈_
/////////////////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/basic_colors.gif

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin

with yaspin(text="Colors!") as sp:
    # Support all basic termcolor text colors
    colors = ("red", "green", "yellow", "blue", "magenta", "cyan", "white")

    for color in colors:
        sp.color, sp.text = color, color
        time.sleep(1)

Advanced colors usage
/////////////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/advanced_colors.gif

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin
from yaspin.spinners import Spinners

text = "Bold blink magenta spinner on cyan color"
with yaspin().bold.blink.magenta.bouncingBall.on_cyan as sp:
    sp.text = text
    time.sleep(3)

# The same result can be achieved by passing arguments directly
with yaspin(
    Spinners.bouncingBall,
    color="magenta",
    on_color="on_cyan",
    attrs=["bold", "blink"],
) as sp:
    sp.text = text
    time.sleep(3)

Run any spinner you want
////////////////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/custom_spinners.gif

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin, Spinner

# Compose new spinners with custom frame sequence and interval value
sp = Spinner(["😸", "😹", "😺", "😻", "😼", "😽", "😾", "😿", "🙀"], 200)

with yaspin(sp, text="Cat!"):
    time.sleep(3)  # cat consuming code :)

Change spinner properties on the fly
////////////////////////////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/sp_properties.gif

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin
from yaspin.spinners import Spinners

with yaspin(Spinners.noise, text="Noise spinner") as sp:
    time.sleep(2)

    sp.spinner = Spinners.arc  # spinner type
    sp.text = "Arc spinner"    # text along with spinner
    sp.color = "green"         # spinner color
    sp.side = "right"          # put spinner to the right
    sp.reversal = True         # reverse spin direction

    time.sleep(2)

Spinner with timer
//////////////////

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin

with yaspin(text="elapsed time", timer=True) as sp:
    time.sleep(3.1415)
    sp.ok()

Custom Ellipsis
///////////////

If the text does not fit in the terminal it gets truncated, you can set a custom ellipsis to signal truncation.

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin

with yaspin(text="some long text", ellipsis="...") as sp:
time.sleep(2)

Dynamic text
////////////

.. code:: python

import time
from datetime import datetime
from yaspin import yaspin

class TimedText:
    def __init__(self, text):
        self.text = text
        self._start = datetime.now()

    def __str__(self):
        now = datetime.now()
        delta = now - self._start
        return f"{self.text} ({round(delta.total_seconds(), 1)}s)"

with yaspin(text=TimedText("time passed:")):
    time.sleep(3)

Writing messages
////////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/write_text.gif

You should not write any message in the terminal using print while spinner is open.
To write messages in the terminal without any collision with yaspin spinner, a .write() method is provided:

.. code:: python

import time
from yaspin import yaspin

with yaspin(text="Downloading images", color="cyan") as sp:
    # task 1
    time.sleep(1)
    sp.write("> image 1 download complete")

    # task 2
    time.sleep(2)
    sp.write("> image 2 download complete")

    # finalize
    sp.ok("✔")

Integration with other libraries
////////////////////////////////

.. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pavdmyt/yaspin/master/gifs/hide_show.gif

Utilizing hidden context manager it is possible to toggle the display of
the spinner in order to call custom methods that write to the terminal. This is
helpful for allowing easy usage in other frameworks like prompt-toolkit_.
Using the powerful print_formatted_text function allows you even to apply
HTML formats and CSS styles to the output:

.. code:: python

import sys
import time

from yaspin import yaspin
from prompt_toolkit import HTML, print_formatted_text
from prompt_toolkit.styles import Style

# override print with feature-rich ``print_formatted_text`` from prompt_toolkit
print = print_formatted_text

# build a basic prompt_toolkit style for styling the HTML wrapped text
style = Style.from_dict({
    'msg': '#4caf50 bold',
    'sub-msg': '#616161 italic'
})


with yaspin(text='Downloading images') as sp:
    # task 1
    time.sleep(1)
    with sp.hidden():
        print(HTML(
            u'<b>></b> <msg>image 1</msg> <sub-msg>download complete</sub-msg>'
        ), style=style)

    # task 2
    time.sleep(2)
    with sp.hidden():
        print(HTML(
            u'<b>></b> <msg>image 2</msg> <sub-msg>download complete</sub-msg>'
        ), style=style)

    # finalize
    sp.ok()

Handling POSIX signals_
/////////////////////////

Handling keyboard interrupts (pressing Control-C):

.. code:: python

import time

from yaspin import kbi_safe_yaspin


with kbi_safe_yaspin(text="Press Control+C to send SIGINT (Keyboard Interrupt) signal"):
    time.sleep(5)  # time consuming code

Handling other types of signals:

.. code:: python

import os
import time
from signal import SIGTERM, SIGUSR1

from yaspin import yaspin
from yaspin.signal_handlers import default_handler, fancy_handler


sigmap = {SIGUSR1: default_handler, SIGTERM: fancy_handler}
with yaspin(sigmap=sigmap, text="Handling SIGUSR1 and SIGTERM signals") as sp:
    sp.write("Send signals using `kill` command")
    sp.write("E.g. $ kill -USR1 {0}".format(os.getpid()))
    time.sleep(20)  # time consuming code
