Phiole - Φole
Simple object to wrap three NSFileHandle: 'output', 'error' to write and 'input' to read
There is of course a default instance for standard streams
let csl = Phiole.std
This object could be used in script or CLI application instead of using println()
.
This adds the following abilities :
- Write to a file by declaring transparently an NSFileHandle as output stream
- Write to error stream
- Read from input stream

:warning: Phiole is not a login system. Use instead project like SLF4Swift
Usage
Write to ouput stream
csl.println("write string and pass to the new line")
csl.print("write string without new line")
csl.println() // write new line
Write to error stream
csl.errorln("write an error")
Read from user input
if line = csl.readLine() {
// do something
}
Writing to a file
Create the file handle for writing (file must exist)
if let fileHandle = NSFileHandle(forWritingAtPath: "myoutput.file") { ..
Initialize the console object
var newCsl = csl.withOutput(fileHandle)
// or with more code
var newCsl = Phiole(input: input: Phiols.std.input,
output: fileHandle, error: Phiols.std.error)
Write as usual
newCsl.println("write to a file")
...
Finally don't forget to close the file handle at the end
fileHandle.closeFile()
Add some colors in terminal or xcode
You can manually add color with decorated method ( see
PhioleColor.swift
)
csl.println(Phiole.Color.green.fg("write in red"))
Or for all ouputs
csl.outputColor = .Green
csl.errorColor = .Red
... write here ...
// reset
csl.outputColor = .None
csl.errorColor = .None
// or deactivate
csl.colorize = false
Color shortcuts could be added as you can see in Phiole+Shortcut
For Xcode
XcodeColors is a simple plugin for Xcode, it allows you to use colors in the Xcode debugging console.
Full installation instructions can be found on the XcodeColors project page:
https://github.com/robbiehanson/XcodeColors
Then you must add environment variable XcodeColors
= YES
in your Scheme
More examples
In main.swift
Setup
Copy/Paste
Just copy/paste code with licence in your script, or import swift files or project in your CLI project
Using cocoapods
Add pod 'Phiole', :git => 'https://github.com/phimage/Phiole.git'
to your Podfile
and run pod install
.
Add use_frameworks!
to the end of the Podfile
.
