Gopher renders little `( ◔ ౪◔)´ to the command line.
Use gopher just for pure fun or more meaningful as a loading spinner.
Install gopher with a simple
$ go get github.com/toashd/gopher
Import the gopher package
import "github.com/toashd/gopher"
Create a new gopher
g := gopher.New()
g.Start() // Start the gopher
g.Activity = gopher.Loving // Change the gophers activity. Default is Waiting.
g.Color = gopher.Magenta // Change the gophers color. Default is White.
g.Prefix = g.Activity.String() // Add prefix text
g.Suffix = "golang" // Add suffix text
time.Sleep(4 * time.Second) // Run for some time to simulate some serious work
g.Stop() // Stop the gopher
To simply print a gopher use
fmt.Println(g)
Gopher currently supports four different gopher activities: Waiting, Wondering, Boring, and Loving.
Want to see gophers in action, checkout the examples or build your own!
Please feel free to suggest any kind of improvements, refactorings or just more funny gopher activities. Get in touch, file an issue, fork and submit a pull requests.
