| bool | _colorize = True |
A controller that determines whether strings should be colored.
Parameters
----------
text : `str`
Text content to print to a terminal.
category : `str`
Semantic category of the ``text``. See `categories` for possible
values.
Raises
------
RuntimeError
Raised when the ``category`` is not a key of ``Color.categories``.
Notes
-----
The usual usage is ``Color(string, category)`` which returns a string that
may be printed; categories are given by the keys of `Color.categories`.
`Color.colorize` may be used to set or retrieve whether the user wants
color. It always returns `False` when `sys.stdout` is not attached to a
terminal.
|
static |
Get or set whether the string should be colorized.
Parameters
----------
val : `bool` or `dict`, optional
The value is usually a bool, but it may be a dict which is used
to modify `Color.categories`.
Returns
-------
shouldColorize : `bool`
If `True`, the string should be colorized. A string **will not** be
colorized if standard output or standard error are not attached to
a terminal or if the ``val`` argument was `False`.
Only strings written to a terminal are colorized.
