SYNOPSIS

  GetOptions('colormap|cm:s' => @opt_colormap);

  require Getopt::EX::Colormap;
  my $cm = new Getopt::EX::Colormap;
  $cm->load_params(@opt_colormap);  

  print $cm->color('FILE', 'FILE labeled text');

  print $cm->index_color($index, 'TEXT');

    or

  use Getopt::EX::Colormap qw(colorize);
  $text = colorize(SPEC, TEXT);
  $text = colorize(SPEC_1, TEXT_1, SPEC_2, TEXT_2, ...);

DESCRIPTION

This module assumes the color information is given in two ways: one in labeled list, and one in indexed list.

This is an example of labeled list:

    --cm 'COMMAND=SE,OMARK=CS,NMARK=MS' \
    --cm 'OTEXT=C,NTEXT=M,*CHANGE=BD/445,DELETE=APPEND=RD/544' \
    --cm 'CMARK=GS,MMARK=YS,CTEXT=G,MTEXT=Y'

Each color definitions are separated by comma (",") and label is specified by LABEL= style precedence. Multiple labels can be set for same value by connecting them together. Label name can be specified with "*" and "?" wild characters.

If the color spec start with plus ("+") mark with labeled list format, it is appended to the current value with reset mark ("^"). Next example uses wildcard to set all labels end with `CHANGE' to `R' and set `R^S' to `OCHANGE' label.

    --cm '*CHANGE=R,OCHANGE=+S'

Indexed list example is like this:

    --cm 555/100,555/010,555/001 \
    --cm 555/011,555/101,555/110 \
    --cm 555/021,555/201,555/210 \
    --cm 555/012,555/102,555/120

This is the example of RGB 6x6x6 216 colors specification. Left side of slash is foreground color, and right side is for background. This color list is accessed by index.

Handler maintains hash and list objects, and labeled colors are stored in hash, non-label colors are in list automatically. User can mix both specifications.

Besides producing ANSI colored text, this module supports calling arbitrary function to handle a string. See "FUNCTION SPEC" section for more detail.

COLOR SPEC

    R  Red
    G  Green
    B  Blue
    C  Cyan
    M  Magenta
    Y  Yellow
    K  Black
    W  White

and alternative (usually brighter) colors in lowercase :

    r, g, b, c, m, y, k, w

or RGB values and 24 grey levels if using ANSI 256 or full color terminal :

    (255,255,255)      : 24bit decimal RGB colors
    #000000 .. #FFFFFF : 24bit hex RGB colors
    #000    .. #FFF    : 12bit hex RGB 4096 colors
    000 .. 555         : 6x6x6 RGB 216 colors
    L00 .. L25         : Black (L00), 24 grey levels, White (L25)

or color names enclosed by angle bracket :

    <red> <blue> <green> <cyan> <magenta> <yellow>
    <aliceblue> <honeydue> <hotpink> <mooccasin>
    <medium_aqua_marine>

with other special effects :

    Z  0 Zero (reset)
    D  1 Double-struck (boldface)
    P  2 Pale (dark)
    I  3 Italic
    U  4 Underline
    F  5 Flash (blink: slow)
    Q  6 Quick (blink: rapid)
    S  7 Stand-out (reverse video)
    V  8 Vanish (concealed)
    J  9 Junk (crossed out)

    E    Erase Line

    ;    No effect
    X    No effect
    /    Toggle foreground/background
    ^    Reset to foreground

At first the color is considered as foreground, and slash ("/") switches foreground and background. If multiple colors are given in the same spec, all indicators are produced in the order of their presence. Consequently, the last one takes effect.

If the spec start with plus ("+") or minus ("-") character, following characters are appneded/deleted from previous value. Reset mark ("^") is inserted before appended string.

Effect characters are case insensitive, and can be found anywhere and in any order in color spec string. Because "X" and ";" takes no effect, you can use them to improve readability, like "SxD;K/544".

Samples:

    RGB  6x6x6    12bit      24bit           color name
    ===  =======  =========  =============  ==================
    B    005      #00F       (0,0,255)      <blue>
     /M     /505      /#F0F   /(255,0,255)  /<magenta>
    K/W  000/555  #000/#FFF  000000/FFFFFF  <black>/<white>
    R/G  500/050  #F00/#0F0  FF0000/00FF00  <red>/<green>
    W/w  L03/L20  #333/#ccc  303030/c6c6c6  <dimgrey>/<lightgrey>

24-bit RGB color sequence is supported but disabled by default. Set $RGB24 module variable to enable it.

Character "E" is an abbreviation for "{EL}", and it clears the line from cursor to the end of the line. At this time, background color is set to the area. When this code is found in the start sequence, it is copied to just before ending reset sequence, with preceding sequence if necessary, to keep the effect even when the text is wrapped to multiple lines.

Other ANSI CSI sequences are also available in the form of "{NAME}", despite there are few reasons to use them.

    CUU n   Cursor up
    CUD n   Cursor Down
    CUF n   Cursor Forward
    CUB n   Cursor Back
    CNL n   Cursor Next Line
    CPL n   Cursor Previous line
    CHA n   Cursor Horizontal Absolute
    CUP n,m Cursor Position
    ED  n   Erase in Display (0 after, 1 before, 2 entire, 3 w/buffer)
    EL  n   Erase in Line (0 after, 1 before, 2 entire)
    SU  n   Scroll Up
    SD  n   Scroll Down
    HVP n,m Horizontal Vertical Position
    SGR n*  Select Graphic Rendition
    SCP     Save Cursor Position
    RCP     Restore Cursor Position

These name accept following optional numerical parameters, using comma (',') or semicolon (';') to separate multiple ones, with optional braces. For example, color spec "DK/544" can be described as "{SGR1;30;48;5;224}" or more readable "{SGR(1,30,48,5,224)}".

Enclose them by angle bracket to use, like:

    <deeppink>/<lightyellow>

Although these colors are defined in 24bit value, they are mapped to 6x6x6 216 colors by default. Set $RGB24 module variable to use 24bit color mode.

FUNCTION SPEC

    % example --cm 'sub{uc}'

set the function object in the color entry. And when "color" method is called with that object, specified function is called instead of producing ANSI color sequence. Function is supposed to get the target text as a global variable $_, and return the result as a string. Function "sub{uc}" in the above example returns uppercase version of $_.

If your script prints file name according to the color spec labeled by FILE, then

    % example --cm FILE=R

prints the file name in red, but

    % example --cm FILE=sub{uc}

will print the name in uppercases.

Spec start with "&" is considered as a function name. If the function "double" is defined like:

    sub double { $_ . $_ }

then, command

    % example --cm '&double'

produces doubled text by "color" method. Function can also take parameters, so the next example

    sub repeat {
        my %opt = @_;
        $_ x $opt{count} // 1;
    }

    % example --cm '&repeat(count=3)'

produces tripled text.

Function object is created by <Getopt::EX::Func> module. Take a look at the module for detail.

EXAMPLE CODE

    #!/usr/bin/perl
    
    use strict;
    use warnings;

    my @opt_colormap;
    use Getopt::EX::Long;
    GetOptions("colormap|cm=s" => \@opt_colormap);
    
    my %colormap = ( # default color map
        FILE => 'R',
        LINE => 'G',
        TEXT => 'B',
        );
    my @colors;
    
    require Getopt::EX::Colormap;
    my $handler = new Getopt::EX::Colormap
        HASH => \%colormap,
        LIST => \@colors;
    
    $handler->load_params(@opt_colormap);

    for (0 .. $#colors) {
        print $handler->index_color($_, "COLOR $_"), "\n";
    }
    
    for (sort keys %colormap) {
        print $handler->color($_, $_), "\n";
    }

This sample program is complete to work. If you save this script as a file example, try to put following contents in ~/.examplerc and see what happens.

    option default \
        --cm 555/100,555/010,555/001 \
        --cm 555/011,555/101,555/110 \
        --cm 555/021,555/201,555/210 \
        --cm 555/012,555/102,555/120

METHOD

color label, TEXT

color color_spec, TEXT

Return colored text indicated by label or color spec string.

index_color index, TEXT

Return colored text indicated by index. If the index is bigger than color list, it rounds up.

new

append

load_params

See super class Getopt::EX::LabeledParam.

colormap

Return string which can be used for option definition. Some parameters can be specified like:

    $obj->colormap(name => "--newopt", option => "--colormap");
    

FUNCTION

colorize(color_spec, text)

colorize24(color_spec, text)

Return colorized version of given text.

colorize produces 256 or 24bit colors depending on the value of "Getopt::EX::Colormap::RGB24" variable and environment "GETOPTEX_RGB24".

colorize24 always produces 24bit color sequence for 24bit/12bit color spec.

ansi_code(color_spec)

Produces introducer sequence for given spec. Reset code can be taken by ansi_code("Z").

ansi_pair(color_spec)

Produces introducer and recover sequences for given spec. Recover sequence includes Erace Line related control with simple SGR reset code.

csi_code(name, params)

Produce CSI (Control Sequence Introducer) sequence by name with numeric parameters. name is one of CUU, CUD, CUF, CUB, CNL, CPL, CHA, CUP, ED, EL, SU, SD, HVP, SGR, SCP, RCP.
