A simple yet effective utility for displaying a loading bar and a spinning loader across multiple programming languages. This utility is useful for indicating progress or activity in command-line applications.
- Python
- JavaScript (Node.js)
- Rust
- PHP
- Loading Bar: Displays a dynamic progress bar with a customizable prefix, suffix, and character fill.
- Spinning Loader: Displays a spinning animation with customizable spinner characters and duration.
No installation required for Python. Simply copy the code into your script.
from simple_loader import SimpleLoader
# Loading Bar Example
SimpleLoader.loading_bar(total_steps=100, prefix='Downloading', suffix='Complete', length=50)
# Spinning Loader Example
SimpleLoader.spinning_loader(duration=5, message='Processing', spinner_chars='|/-\\')Ensure you have Node.js installed. No additional packages required.
// Example usage
SimpleLoader.loadingBar(100, 'Downloading', 'Complete', 50);
SimpleLoader.spinningLoader(5, 'Processing', '|/-\\');Ensure you have Rust installed. Create a new project with cargo new simple_loader and copy the code into src/main.rs.
fn main() {
// Loading Bar Example
SimpleLoader::loading_bar(100, "Downloading", "Complete", 50, '█');
// Spinning Loader Example
SimpleLoader::spinning_loader(5, "Processing", "|/-\\");
}Ensure you have PHP installed. You can run the PHP file directly from the command line.
// Example usage
SimpleLoader::loadingBar(100, 'Downloading', 'Complete', 50);
SimpleLoader::spinningLoader(5, 'Processing', '|/-\\');totalSteps: Number of steps for completion (used to calculate progress).prefix: Text displayed before the progress bar.suffix: Text displayed after the progress bar.length: The length of the progress bar.fill: The character used to fill the progress bar.
duration: How long the spinner should run (in seconds).message: The message displayed alongside the spinner.spinnerChars: The characters used for the spinner animation (e.g., '|', '/', '-', '\').
