logupdate

Single-line log updater for vlang

Update the current terminal line by overwriting it - useful for displaying progress bars/animations while some work is done.

Installation

Install using vpm:

v install perry_mitchell.logupdate

Usage

Usage is very simple - update simply updates the same line over and over:

import logupdate
import time

fn main() {
    mut val := 0
	for {
		val = val + 1
		if val > 9 {
			val = 1
		}
		logupdate.update("Counter: $val")
		time.sleep_ms(200)
	}
}

Use clear to clear the update by setting one final value to the line (writes a new-line as well).

Testing

Simply run make all.
