A Golang command line tool to show a spinner as you wait for some long running jobs to finish.
This is a simple project but carries a tremendous value to me [❤️].
Usage
Install chin:
go get -u github.com/adhocore/chin
Use in Go code with WaitGroup:
var wg sync.WaitGroup
s := chin.New().WithWait(&wg)
go s.Start()
// invoke some long running task
// (you can also call s.Stop() from that task)
longTask(&wg)
s.Stop()
wg.Wait()
Refer and run working examples with:
go run examples/main.go
Custom Spinner
You can choose from provided spinner sets chin.Default, chin.Arrows and chin.Dots:
s := chin.New(chin.Arrows)
// or
s := chin.New(chin.Dots)
go s.Start()
chin.Defaultis selected…
