Does it work on browser?

Is there a browser version?

I was using it to pipe terminal output to the browser via a websocket. Is there another browser interaction you were thinking of? The code might run in the browser if you use broswerify, though I've not tried that.

As my clients apps are not only web I prefer my server to send ASCII colors and each client interpret it depending on the rendering engine (html or not).

there's no dependencies. so, browserify may work out for that, I'd be interested to know if you get it working in that manner.

Thanks for the info and the quick response, I'll try browserify and post the result here.

Cool! It was easier than expected:

$ npm install browserify ansi-to-html
$ node_modules/.bin/browserify --require "ansi-to-html" > ansi-to-html.browser.js

And on the HTML

<script src="ansi-to-html.browser.js"></script>
<script>
  var Convert = require('ansi-to-html');
  var convert = new Convert()
  document.body.innerHTML = convert.toHtml('\x1b[30mblack\x1b[37mwhite');
</script>
