NAME App::colorxform - Transform colors on the CLI VERSION This document describes version 0.002 of App::colorxform (from Perl distribution App-colorxform), released on 2018-09-07. FUNCTIONS colorxform Usage: colorxform(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta] Transform colors on the CLI. Some CLI programs output horrible colors (e.g. hard to read on terminal with black background) and the colors are either uncustomizable or cumbersome to customize. This is where "colorxform" comes in. You pipe the output and it will replace some colors with another, per your specification. An example, put this in your "~/.config/colorxform.conf": [profile=ledger] fg_transforms = {"blue":"#18b2b2", "red":"bold red"} then: % ledger -f myledger.dat --color --force-color balance | colorxform -P ledger You can create a shell alias for convenience: % function ledger() { C --color --force-color "$@" | colorxform -P ledger; } so you can just issue this to get the colors transformed: % ledger -f myledger.dat balance This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * bg_transforms => *hash* (default: {}) List of background colors to replace with other colors. You can specify color using RGB code (e.g. "#123456") or color names like those recognized by Term::ANSIColor (e.g. "blue" or "bold blue"). * fg_transforms => *hash* (default: {}) List of foreground colors to replace with other colors. You can specify color code using RGB code (e.g. "#123456") or color names like those recognized by Term::ANSIColor (e.g. "blue" or "bold blue"). Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information. Return value: (any) HOMEPAGE Please visit the project's homepage at .
