Artistic-Pastel-Painter

Artistic Pastel Painter is a library to colorize your console output in a very flexible way. It mainly works by applying Brushes to an ArtisticString. See the source code for ArtisticRegexBrush or the RainbowBrush to see how they work. For reusability purposes, a set of brushes can be assigned to an ArtisticPainter who can Unleash his creativity on any string. The examples below should cover most use-cases. Go ahead and create your own brush!

    var bareBones = new ArtisticString("Hello World!", Color.IndianRed);
    bareBones.PaintYourself(6, 5, Color.GreenYellow);
    bareBones.PaintYourself(0, 1, background: Color.White);
    bareBones.PaintYourself(6, 1, (background: Color.White, foreground: Color.OrangeRed));
    Console.WriteLine(bareBones);

    var withArtisticBrushes = new ArtisticString("Hello World!", Color.IndianRed);
    withArtisticBrushes.PaintYourself(new ArtisticRegexBrush("World", Color.GreenYellow));
    withArtisticBrushes.PaintYourself(new ArtisticRegexBrush("[A-Z]", Color.White));
    Console.WriteLine(withArtisticBrushes);

    var withReusablePainter = new ArtisticPainter()
        .BeCreativeWith(new ArtisticRegexBrush("World", Color.GreenYellow))
        .BeCreativeWith(new ArtisticRegexBrush("[A-Z]", Color.White));

    Console.WriteLine(withReusablePainter.Unleash(new ArtisticString("Hello World!", Color.IndianRed)));

    Console.WriteLine(withReusablePainter.Unleash("Hello World as default white string!"));

    Console.WriteLine(new ArtisticPainter()
        .BeCreativeWith(new ArtisticRegexBrush("World", Color.GreenYellow))
        .BeCreativeWith(new ArtisticRegexBrush("[A-Z]", Color.White))
        .Unleash(new ArtisticString("Hello World using implicit casts and return string of Unleash!", Color.IndianRed)));

    Console.WriteLine(new ArtisticPainter()
        .BeCreativeWith(new RainbowBrush())
        .Unleash(new ArtisticString("Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World!", Color.White)));

    Console.WriteLine(new ArtisticPainter()
        .BeCreativeWith(RainbowBrush.FixedRainbowSize(15))
        .Unleash(new ArtisticString("Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World!", Color.White)));

    Console.WriteLine(new ArtisticPainter()
        .BeCreativeWith(RainbowBrush.FixedNrOfRainbows(2))
        .Unleash(new ArtisticString("Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World!", Color.White)));

    Console.WriteLine(new ArtisticPainter()
        .BeCreativeWith(RainbowBrush.FixedNrOfRainbows(2))
        .BeCreativeWith(new ArtisticRegexBrush("World", background: Color.Gray))
        .Unleash(new ArtisticString("Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World!", Color.White)));

    Console.WriteLine(new ArtisticString("Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World!", new ArtisticRegexBrush("World", background: Color.White)));

    var combined = new ArtisticPainter()
        .BeCreativeWith(new RainbowBrush() { Matcher = new RegexRegionMatcher("World") })
        .Unleash(new ArtisticString("Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World! Hello World!", Color.White));
    Console.WriteLine(combined);
