Using the Richtext Controls

Gooey has a support for basic terminal control sequences. These let you control weight and color of the output font. For a full runnable example, checkout the code from the examples repository

You can enable this mode by passing the richtext_controls option to the Gooey decorator.

@Gooey(richtext_controls=True)
def main():
   ...

Usage

The colored library provides functions for adding markup controls to your text. Gooey supports the foreground (fg) and attributes (attr).

from colored import stylize, attr, fg

You can modify your text's output by wrapping it in the stylize function provided by colored.py. For instance, this line will be displayed as bold (attr(1)) and red (fg('red')) when rendered by Gooey.

print(stylize('Hello world!', fg('red') + attr('bold')))

Note that you combine the foreground and attribute functions with the + operator.

Attributes:

Richtext currently supports the following attributes:

These can be used either via their code (attr(1)) or their verbose form (attr('bold'))

Foreground Colors:

Similar to the Attributes, foreground colors can be specified either by their code (fg(2)) or verbose form (fg('green'))
