Default color is white. This will restart the spinner with the new color. ```Go s.Color("red") // Set the spinner color to red ``` You can specify both the background and foreground color, as well as additional attributes such as `bold` or `underline`. ```Go s.Color("red", "bold") // Set the spinner color to a bold red ``` Or to set the background to black, the foreground to a bold red: ```Go s.Color("bgBlack", "bold", "fgRed") ``` Below is the full color and attribute list: ``` // default colors red black green yellow blue magenta cyan white // attributes reset bold faint italic underline blinkslow blinkrapid reversevideo concealed crossedout // foreground text fgBlack fgRed fgGreen fgYellow fgBlue fgMagenta fgCyan fgWhite // foreground Hi-Intensity text fgHiBlack fgHiRed fgHiGreen fgHiYellow fgHiBlue fgHiMagenta fgHiCyan fgHiWhite // background text bgBlack bgRed bgGreen bgYellow bgBlue bgMagenta bgCyan bgWhite // background Hi-Intensity text bgHiBlack bgHiRed bgHiGreen bgHiYellow bgHiBlue bgHiMagenta bgHiCyan bgHiWhite ``` ## Generate a sequence of numbers ```Go setOfDigits := spinner.GenerateNumberSequence(25) // Generate a 25 digit string of numbers s := spinner.New(setOfDigits, 100*time.Millisecond) ``` ## Get spinner status ```Go fmt.Println(s.Active()) ``` ## Unix pipe and redirect Feature suggested and write up by [dekz](https://github.com/dekz) Setting the Spinner Writer to Stderr helps show progress to the user, with the enhancement to chain, pipe or redirect the output. ```go s := spinner.New(spinner.CharSets[11], 100*time.Millisecond) s.Suffix = " Encrypting data..." s.Writer = os.Stderr s.Start() // Encrypt the data into ciphertext fmt.Println(os.Stdout, ciphertext) ``` ```sh > myprog encrypt "Secret text" > encrypted.txt ⣯ Encrypting data... ``` ```sh > cat encrypted.txt 1243hjkbas23i9ah27sj39jghv237n2oa93hg83 ``` ## Final String Output Add additional output when the spinner/indicator has completed. The "final" output string can be multi-lined and will be written to wherever the `io.Writer` has been configured for. ```Go s := spinner.New(spinner.CharSets[9], 100*time.Millisecond) s.FinalMSG = "Complete!\nNew line!\nAnother one!\n" s.Start() time.Sleep(4 * time.Second) s.Stop() ``` Output ```sh Complete! New line! Another one! ```
