Class Method Details

.puts(msg, frame_color: nil, to: $stdout, encoding: Encoding::UTF_8, format: true, graceful: true) ⇒ Object

Print a message to a stream with common utilities. Allows overriding the color, encoding, and target stream. By default, it formats the string using CLI:UI and rescues common stream errors.

Attributes

  • msg - (required) the string to output. Can be frozen.

Options

  • :frame_color - Override the frame color. Defaults to nil.

  • :to - Target stream, like $stdout or $stderr. Can be anything with a puts method. Defaults to $stdout.

  • :encoding - Force the output to be in a certain encoding. Defaults to UTF-8.

  • :format - Whether to format the string using CLI::UI.fmt. Defaults to true.

  • :graceful - Whether to gracefully ignore common I/O errors. Defaults to true.

Returns

Returns whether the message was successfully printed, which can be useful if :graceful is set to true.

Example

CLI::UI::Printer.puts('{x} Ouch', stream: $stderr, color: :red)
