crayon | R Documentation |
With crayon it is easy to add color to terminal output, create styles for notes, warnings, errors; and combine styles.
## Simple styles
red(...)
bold(...)
# ...
## See more styling below

Strings to style. |
ANSI color support is automatically detected and used. Crayon was largely inspired by chalk https://github.com/chalk/chalk.
Crayon defines several styles, that can be combined. Each style in the list has a corresponding function with the same name.
reset
bold
blurred (usually called ‘dim’, renamed to avoid name clash)
italic (not widely supported)
underline
inverse
hidden
strikethrough (not widely supported)
black
red
green
yellow
blue
magenta
cyan
white
silver (usually called ‘gray’, renamed to avoid name clash)
bgBlack
bgRed
bgGreen
bgYellow
bgBlue
bgMagenta
bgCyan
bgWhite
The styling functions take any number of character vectors as arguments, and they concatenate and style them:
library(crayon) cat(blue("Hello", "world!\n"))
Crayon defines the %+%
string concatenation operator, to make it easy
to assemble stings with different styles.
cat("... to highlight the " %+% red("search term") %+% " in a block of text\n")
Styles can be combined using the $
operator:
cat(yellow$bgMagenta$bold('Hello world!\n'))
See also combine_styles()
.
Styles can also be nested, and then inner style takes precedence:
cat(green( 'I am a green line ' %+% blue$underline$bold('with a blue substring') %+% ' that becomes green again!\n' ))
It is easy to define your own themes:
error <- red $ bold warn <- magenta $ underline note <- cyan cat(error("Error: subscript out of bounds!\n")) cat(warn("Warning: shorter argument was recycled.\n")) cat(note("Note: no such directory.\n"))
