pbar

pbar is a progress bar library inspired by tqdm.

Highlights

• Support Windows10 and Linux
• Support UTF-8 character (even in Windows!)
• Support output while displaying a bar
• Header only (pbar.hpp)

Note: this library is not thread-safe.

Requiremtents

• C++17 or later
• Support of VT100 escape sequences

Examples

Minimum example:

#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
#include <pbar.hpp>
#include <thread>

int main(void) {
	using namespace std::this_thread;
	using namespace std::chrono;
	constexpr auto total_ = 30;
	constexpr auto ncols = 100;
	constexpr auto description = "[TASK0]";
	pbar::pbar bar(total_, ncols, description);
	bar.enable_recalc_console_width(1);	 // check console width every tick
	bar.disable_time_measurement();
	bar.init();	 // show a bar with zero progress
	for (auto i = 0; i < total_; ++i, ++bar) {
		sleep_for(milliseconds(20));
	}
	std::cout << "TASK0 done!" << std::endl;
	return 0;
}

Multiple bars:

constexpr auto bar1_total = 2;
constexpr auto bar2_total = 4;
constexpr auto bar3_total = 8;

pbar::pbar bar1(bar1_total, "[TASK1]");
pbar::pbar bar2(bar2_total, "[TASK2]");
pbar::pbar bar3(bar3_total, "[TASK3]");

bar2.enable_stack();
bar3.enable_stack();

bar1.enable_recalc_console_width(10);  // check console width every 10 ticks
bar1 << "msg1" << std::endl;		   // to stdout
bar1.warn("msg2\n");				   // to stderr

bar1.init();
for (auto i = 0; i < bar1_total; ++i, ++bar1) {
	bar2.init();
	for (auto j = 0; j < bar2_total; ++j, ++bar2) {
		bar3.init();
		for (auto k = 0; k < bar3_total; ++k, ++bar3) {
			sleep_for(10ms);
		}
		sleep_for(50ms);
	}
	sleep_for(100ms);
}
std::cout << "TASK1-3 done!" << std::endl;

spinner is also provided:

constexpr auto text = "Loading1... ";
constexpr auto interval = 80ms;
auto spin = pbar::spinner(text, interval);
spin.start();
sleep_for(1500ms);
spin.ok();
spin = pbar::spinner("Loading2...");
spin.start();
spin << "msg1" << std::endl;  // to stdout
spin.warn("msg2\n");		  // to stderr
sleep_for(1500ms);
spin.err();
