Create new instance:
/**
* @param array $messages The messages to be printed, in the format ['id' => 'message'].
*/
public function __construct(protected array $messages = []);
Display a message on the console:
/**
* Formatter: The $message and $params work in a similar way as the sprintf method:
* display('tag', 'The %s %d', ['message', 8]).
*
* Messages: If $messages was provided, the message can be replaced by the ID:
* display('tag', 'user.error').
*
* Logger: If used and the tag name of the message matches a level,
* it shall be used when adding the record. Otherwise use the debug level.
*
* @param string $tagName Message tag name.
* @param string $message The message or message ID.
* @param array $params Additional context for format $message or/and passing it to the log.
*/
public function display(string $tagName, string $message, array $params = []): self;
Dynamically display a message using the message tag as the method name:
/**
* @param string $tagName Message tag name.
* @param string $arguments The first value is the message and the second the parameters.
*/
public function __call(string $tagName, array $arguments): self;
Add an instance of Monolog\Logger to add a log for each message displayed:
/**
* @param Logger $logger Instance of the Logger class.
*/
public function useLogger(Logger $logger): self;
Print new lines on the console:
/**
* @param int $times Number of new lines to print.
*/
public function newLine(int $times = 1): self;
Set the number of line breaks before and after a message:
/**
* @param int $before Number of line breaks before a message.
* @param int $after Number of line breaks after a message.
*/
public function setLineBreaks(int $before, int $after): self;
Set the default color of the message tags:
/**
* @param Color $color Default message tag color.
*/
public function setDefaultTagColor(Color $color): self;
Set the color for a message tag:
/**
* @param string $tagName Message tag name.
* @param Color $tagColor Message tag color.
*/
public function setTagColor(string $tagName, Color $tagColor): self;
Josantonius\CliPrinter\Color

$printer->display('alert', 'Alert message.');
$printer->display('error', 'Error message.');
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\CliPrinter;
$printer = new CliPrinter();
$printer->setLineBreaks(before: 2, after: 1);
$printer->display('alert', 'Alert message.');
$printer->display('error', 'Error message.');
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\CliPrinter;
$printer = new CliPrinter();
$printer->display('request', 'Message.');
$printer->newLine();
$printer->display('response', 'Message.');
$printer->newLine(times: 3);
$printer->display('warning', 'Message.');
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\Color;
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\CliPrinter;
$printer = new CliPrinter();
$printer->setDefaultTagColor(Color::PURPLE);
$printer->display('alert', 'An alert message.');
$printer->display('error', 'An error message.');
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\Color;
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\CliPrinter;
$printer = new CliPrinter();
$printer->setTagColor('info', Color::BLUE)
->setTagColor('alert', Color::BLACK)
->setTagColor('error', Color::RED)
->setTagColor('debug', Color::GREEN)
->setTagColor('notice', Color::CYAN)
->setTagColor('warning', Color::YELLOW)
->setTagColor('critical', Color::PURPLE)
->setTagColor('emergency', Color::WHITE);
$printer->display('info', 'A message.');
$printer->display('alert', 'A message.');
$printer->display('error', 'A message.');
$printer->display('debug', 'A message.');
$printer->display('notice', 'A message.');
$printer->display('warning', 'A message.');
$printer->display('critical', 'A message.');
$printer->display('emergency', 'A message.');
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\CliPrinter;
$printer = new CliPrinter();
$printer->request('A request message.');
$printer->response('A %s message.', ['response']);
Using Monolog\Logger
use Monolog\Logger;
use Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler;
use Josantonius\CliPrinter\CliPrinter;
$logger = new Logger('LOG');
$logger->pushHandler(new StreamHandler(__DIR__ . '/log.txt'));
$printer = new CliPrinter();
$printer->useLogger($logger);
/**
* It will create a "notice" log.
*
* [2023-01-13T19:50:47.954791+00:00] LOG.NOTICE: A notice message. {"foo":"bar"} []
*/
$printer->display('notice', 'A notice message.', ['foo' => 'bar']);
/**
* It will create a "debug" log as there is no "create" level.
*
* [2023-01-13T19:50:47.954319+00:00] LOG.DEBUG: A create message. ["create"] []

$printer->display('create', 'A %s message.', ['create']);
