Two reasons came together that lead me to creating this fork:
- trying to use https://github.com/cheggaaa/pb/tree/v2 in a gomodules-enabled project was too much for me to handle due to the reliance on versioned gopkg.in packages; and
- version 1 of Sergey's pb didn't have the things I needed for my project.
So I forked Version 2 and updated the imports. I get that I could have created a pull-request to update v2 in the original project, but again,two things prompted me to fork:
- the lack of activity on the v2 branch - 2 years at the point I forked this; and
- [cheggaaa#146 existing pull-request to make the changes I need) that had stalled for no good reason.
The features I needed from the original v2 are:
- based on text/template
- can take custom elements
- using colors is easy
