bruhanimate

bruhanimate provides a set of tools for creating and rendering animations directly in the terminal. Designed for ease of use, this package enables developers to incorporate dynamic animations into command-line applications. While drawing inspiration from existing terminal animation libraries, bruhanimate brings a fresh approach and offers a unique set of features tailored for flexibility and creativity in terminal-based projects.

Inspired by the Asciimatics package.

Quick Start

Use some of the built in demos to see what is possible. There are demos for each effect. Simply import <effect>_demo from bruhanimate and call the <effect>_demo.run() to run the demo!

• static
• offset
• noise
• stars
• snow
• rain
• plasma
• gol (Conway's Game of Life)
• matrix
• twinkle

# Import a demo
from bruhanimate import plasma_demo
# run the demo
plasma_demo.run()

Usage

Here are some examples on how bruhanimate might be used.

Pass in arguments through the show() command.

"""
Here is a simple program that uses the EffectRenderer passing in
the arguments to the main function
"""
from bruhanimate import Screen, CenterRenderer, images


def demo(screen, img, frames, time, effect_type, background, transparent):
    renderer = CenterRenderer(screen, frames, time, img, effect_type, background, transparent)
    renderer.update_smart_transparent(True)
    renderer.effect.update_color(True)
    renderer.effect.update_intensity(100)
    renderer.run()


def main():
    Screen.show(demo, args=(images.get_image("twopoint"), 300, 0, "noise", " ", False))


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Set the arguments directly in the function invoked by show().
