<h2>How to use</h2>





## 1st - import



Let's import **Farbprinter** and create an instance which we creatively call **drucker** *(google it if you want to find out what it means! :-)* ) 

```python
from farbprinter.farbprinter import Farbprinter
drucker = Farbprinter()
```



### 2nd - overview - functions (methods) / attributes

Let's start with an overview of all important functions (methods) and attributes of the class **Farbprinter**

```python
#Functions
drucker.p_ascii_font_2_colors()
drucker.p_ascii_font_on_flag()
drucker.p_ascii_front_on_flag_with_border()
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict()
drucker.p_picture_to_ascii_art()
drucker.p_show_all_color_combinations()

#Attributes 
drucker.p #-> p for "print" (very creative, right?)
drucker.f # -> f for "format" 
```

As you can see, all functions that matter start with the prefix **p_** I think it is pretty clear what they can be used for *(at least for me, hahaha)*. Scroll down if you want to see detailed examples for each one of them. **The names of the attributes "p" and "f" are anything but self-explaining. Since they are the "heart" of the class, let's talk about them first!**

### <br>2nd - Farbprinter.p  and Farbprinter.f 

By using the attribute "**f**", you can access the *lambda functions* in the "**format-dict**" which allow you to format strings and use them anywhere you want. If you are impatient and want to print them right away, use the "**p**" attribute to access the lambda functions in the "**print-dict**"!

```python
drucker.f.red.black.italic('Wie geht es dir?')
'\x1b[3m\x1b[41m\x1b[30mWie geht es dir?\x1b[3m\x1b[0m'  #formated string

drucker.p.red.black.italic('Wie geht es dir?')
drucker.p.yellow.blue.bold('Ich bleibe hier')
```

And now the best partâ€¦ Since **Farbprinter** was made for lazy people by someone lazy, it supports **auto-completion** in **PyCharm** and other IDEs.

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/main/pic_for_readme14.png?raw=true)



Well, once you press the "**magic dot key for lazy people**" on your keyboard, you will find out that there are many color combinations (what a surprise, right?) If you want to spend the whole weekend choosing the right one(s) for you, you can use 

```
drucker.p_show_all_color_combinations() 
```

toâ€¦ guess what ... **to see all colo(u)r combinations** 

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme02.png?raw=true)



### 3rd - Is it a pirate's parrot or a pandas DataFrame? 

Since [pandas](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas) is one of the greatest things mankind has ever invented, I had to honor it somehow.I thought that making a pirate's parrot out of a DataFrame would be a great start! :-) Just use

```python
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(df)
```

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme04.png?raw=true)



If the data in DataFrame's cells is so big, that you could wrap it 10 times around your belly even after a 16 X 16 at In-N-Out-Burger, you can crop it (the DataFrame, not your belly). Just use:

```python
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(df, linebreak=10)
```

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme05.png?raw=true)

### <br>4th - Lists and dictionaries from San Francisco - 1968

If a pandas DataFrame could easily be confused with the album's cover of Jimi Hendrix' "Axis: Bold as Love", it should also be possible for lists and dictionaries, right?

```python
#Let's create a list containing German vocabulary
liste = ['(amtliches) Schreiben {n}', '(an jdn./etw.) glauben', '(aus etw.) bestehen', '(automatischer) Ausschalter {m}', '(automatischer) Schaltmechanismus {m}', '(bei etw.) ein Auge zudrÃ¼cken', '(Chinesische) Samtpappel {f}', '(Chinesische) Samtpappel {f}', '(dicke) Jacke {f}', '(die) Schuld haben', '(die) Schuld haben', '(eine TÃ¤tigkeit) aufnehmen', '(Es) ist okay! {n} [ugs.]', '(etw. [Akk.]) essen', '(EuropÃ¤ischer) Feldhase {m}', '(ganz) im Gegenteil', '(gellender) Schrei {m}', '(hohes) Alter {n}', '(in) die Hand beiÃŸen, die einen fÃ¼ttert', '(in der) Schlange stehen', '(in die Luft) sprengen', '(in die Luft) sprengen', '(jdn.) um Hilfe bitten', '(Kalifornischer) Eselhase {m}', '(Kalifornischer) Eselhase {m}', '(kleine) Bucht {f}', '(miteinander) verflechten', '(mit jdm.) verwandt sein', '(Nasen-) NebenhÃ¶hlenentzÃ¼ndung {f}', '(nicht) von Belang sein', '(nicht) von Belang sein', '(noch) ein Ass im Ã„rmel haben [fig.]', '(Schwarzer) Degenfisch {m}', '(sehr) fleiÃŸig', '(sehr) wenig', '(sich) ablÃ¶sen', '(sich) beugen', '(sich) kauern', '(sich) reimend', '(sich) versehen mit']

#and now...
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(liste)


```

Nested lists? No problem! Let's show Jupyter who we are! 

```python
liste_deutsch_portugiesisch = [['(amtliches) Schreiben {n}', '(an jdn./etw.) glauben', '(aus etw.) bestehen', '(automatischer) Ausschalter {m}', '(automatischer) Schaltmechanismus {m}', '(bei etw.) ein Auge zudrÃ¼cken', '(Chinesische) Samtpappel {f}', '(Chinesische) Samtpappel {f}', '(dicke) Jacke {f}', '(die) Schuld haben'], ['ofÃ­cio {m}', 'crer (em alguÃ©m/algo)', 'consistir (em / de algo)', 'disjuntor {m}', 'disjuntor {m}', 'fazer vista grossa (para algo)', 'juta {f} da China [Abutilon theophrasti, syn.: A. avicennae, Sida abutilon]', 'juta {f} de Tien-Tsin [Abutilon theophrasti, syn.: A. avicennae, Sida abutilon]', 'japona {f}', 'ser culpado']]

#go and get a partner!
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(liste_deutsch_portugiesisch)


```



![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme07.png?raw=true)



If you don't like all those beautiful, paired up German / Portuguese words on top of each other, then [keep them separated](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FWdQVNeTlI) with:

```python
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(liste_deutsch_portugiesisch, listtranspose=True)
```

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme08.png?raw=true)

Are you still nagging? And what if I offered you â€¦ some beautiful yellow headers? For your nested list! I am serious! All free of charge! 

```python
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(liste_deutsch_portugiesisch, listtranspose=True, header=['de', 'pt'])
```

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme09.png?raw=true)



Dictionaries are like divas - beautiful, elegant, but need an exceptional treatment, if you prefer not to have thrown exceptions in your face every time you ask the diva for a favor. The good news is, you can print those divas as well, the bad: they donâ€™t look great when they are nested! But hey, at least you can transpose them (and even pass a tiny little cute header for the key/value pair.)

```python
pt_de_dict = {}
pt_de_dict['das Wort'] = 'a palavra'
pt_de_dict['das Haus'] = 'a casa'
pt_de_dict['die Frau'] = 'a mulher'
print(pt_de_dict)
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(pt_de_dict, listtranspose=False)
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(pt_de_dict, listtranspose=True)
drucker.p_pandas_list_dict(pt_de_dict, listtranspose=False, header=['de', 'pt'])
```

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme10.png?raw=true)



### <br>5th - Picture to ASCII/ANSI/whatever art

If you want to surprise your eight-year-old daughter, take a picture of her and turn it/her into a letter soup using: 

```python
drucker.p_picture_to_ascii_art(picture_path=r"dukotztmichan.png",
letter_for_ascii_art='QUEROESTUDARALEMAO.COM.BR-',
contrast=1,
desired_width=60,
savetopath=None,
printpicture=True,
black_and_white=False,
black_and_white_thresh=50,
rgb8_16_256=256)
```

This transforms any picture into ASCII Art (Is that what it is called??) There are some arguments you can pass, all kind of self explaining (at least for me :-) ).Play around with them. I haven't written neither doc strings nor type hints yet, but will do soon! (Shame on me) ***If you go to the source code,don't be surprised if you encounter variables with strange names, mixing up English with German (and Portuguese sometimes, [to make it worse hahaha]).***

### <br>6th - Text to ASCII/ANSI/whatever art 

Let's impress our kids a little more by showing them how the world was when we were kids, and would get into trouble playing Commander Keen during word-processing class in school!

Let's print some ASCII/ANSI/font (I never know how it is actually called)

```python
drucker.p_ascii_font_2_colors(text='Hallo, Welt, alles fit?', colorfunction=drucker.f.black.yellow.bold, font='puffy',width = 1000, offset_from_left_side=25, offset_from_text=5)

```

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme11.png?raw=true)



If you really want to get this "Back to the Future feeling" and see a list of all available fonts, just pass "None" as font:

```python
drucker.p_ascii_font_2_colors(text='Hallo, Welt, alles fit?', colorfunction=drucker.f.black.yellow.bold, font=None,width = 1000, offset_from_left_side=25, offset_from_text=5)
```



![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/main/pic_for_readme15.png?raw=true)



Or do you want to have some kind of flag with multiple colors as background? Since I am not a programmer, but a German teacher, let's use the German flag

```python
colorfunctions = [drucker.f.black.brightyellow.normal, drucker.f.brightred.black.normal,                 drucker.f.brightyellow.black.normal]

drucker.p_ascii_font_on_flag(text='Lern Deutsch mit mir!', colorfunctions=colorfunctions, font='doom', width=1000, offset_from_left_side=25,offset_from_text=5)
```

![](https://github.com/hansalemaos/Farbprinter/blob/becb9e516fade66de729a300186f3da5123b0da7/pic_for_readme12.png?raw=true)

Since the German flag is not one of the most creative flags on the planet, let's reinvent it and give add a border and some new colors/colours.

```python
colorfunctions = [drucker.f.black.red.normal, drucker.f.black.white.normal]
drucker.p_ascii_front_on_flag_with_border(text='Lern Deutsch mit mir!',colorfunctions=colorfunctions, bordercolorfunction=drucker.f.brightmagenta.brightcyan.negative, font='xtimes',width = 1000, offset_from_left_side=5, offset_from_text=15)
```

Beautiful new German flag! [Adenauer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konrad_Adenauer) would turn in his grave. 

That's it! Have fun! :-)

## Contributing

Like I mentioned above, I am not a professional programmer, but a German teacher. This year I had to spend 3 months in hospital due to a bone infection. I started learning Python there to kill time. 
My main intention is creating tools that will help others expanding their German knowledge. I published Farbprinter because I will be using it in almost all those tools and I think it might be useful for others because it combines all important features for a real "Back to the Future feeling" hahaha.

**Contributions, issues, and feature requests are welcome!**

About 20 to 25 years ago, I learned some QBasic, C, Java, JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL, but never got further than a simple calculator. Back then, it was so hard getting good information. It is amazing to see how things have changed! Nowadays it is possible to create something really useful in a short period of time! Awesome!

Give a star if this project helped you!
