πŸ’… Reply::...:Colors(3pm) β€” the Reply::Plugin::Colors page, bestie edition πŸŽ€

okay so you opened the Reply::Plugin::Colors manpage and you're wondering what this little cutie does. short answer: it makes your terminal pretty. long answer: keep reading, we're doing this properly ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

Reply::Plugin::Colors β€” colorize output 🎨


πŸ¦‹ VERSION πŸ¦‹

version 0.42 β€” yeah, that's the one, no cap


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

so you drop this into your .replyrc and you're basically set:

; .replyrc
[Colors]
error   = bright red
warning = bright yellow
result  = bright green

that's it. that's the whole vibe. πŸ’–


πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

bestie, listen. this plugin adds coloring to the results when they are printed to the screen. that's its whole job and it does it gorgeously.

by default, the color situation is:

  • errors get red 🚨
  • warnings get yellow ⚠️
  • normal results get green βœ…

but you can absolutely override all of that through configuration β€” the synopsis up there is showing you exactly how, iykyk.

and here's the part that's genuinely iconic: Term::ANSIColor is what's used to generate the colors. so literally any value that is accepted by that module is a valid value for the error, warning, and result options. any. value. the range is giving unlimited. πŸ”₯
