If the argument is a string, you can color code your message by prefixing your string with one of these strings:
|
||
|
||
- `"ERROR"`<!-- -->: The whole string will be printed in red. Use this prefix to indicate that an error has occurred.
|
||
|
||
- `"SUCCESS"`<!-- -->: The whole string will be printed in green, similar to the default theme of the Terminal. Use this prefix to indicate that something is correct.
|
||
|
||
- `"WARN"`<!-- -->: The whole string will be printed in yellow. Use this prefix to indicate that you or a user of your script should be careful of something.
|
||
|
||
- `"INFO"`<!-- -->: The whole string will be printed in purplish blue. Use this prefix to remind yourself or a user of your script of something. Think of this prefix as indicating an FYI (for your information).
|
||
|
||
For custom coloring, use ANSI escape sequences. The examples below use the Unicode escape code `\u001b`<!-- -->. The color coding also works if `\u001b` is replaced with the hexadecimal escape code `\x1b`<!-- -->. The Bash escape code `\e` is not supported. The octal escape code `\033` is not allowed because the game runs JavaScript in strict mode.

||
|
||
## Example 1
|
||
|
||
|
||
```ts
|
||
// NS1
|
||
// Default color coding.
|
||
print("ERROR means something's wrong.");
|
||
print("SUCCESS means everything's OK.");
|
||
print("WARN Tread with caution!");
|
||
print("WARNING, warning, danger, danger!");
|
||
print("WARNing! Here be dragons.");
|
||
print("INFO for your I's only (FYI).");
|
||
print("INFOrmation overload!");
|
||
// Custom color coding.
|
||
var cyan = "\u001b[36m";
|
||
var green = "\u001b[32m";
|
||
var red = "\u001b[31m";
|
||
var reset = "\u001b[0m";
|
||
var msgError = red + "Ugh! What a mess." + reset;
|
||
var msgSuccess = green + "Well done!" + reset;
|
||
var msgMixed = cyan + "ERROR Should this be in red?" + reset;
|
||
print(msgError);
|
||
print(msgSuccess);
|
||
print(msgMixed);
|
||
tail();
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Example 2
|
||
|
||
|
||
```ts
|
||
// NS2
|
||
// Default color coding.
|
||
ns.print("ERROR means something's wrong.");
|
||
ns.print("SUCCESS means everything's OK.");
|
||
ns.print("WARN Tread with caution!");
|
||
ns.print("WARNING, warning, danger, danger!");
|
||
ns.print("WARNing! Here be dragons.");
|
||
ns.print("INFO for your I's only (FYI).");
|
||
ns.print("INFOrmation overload!");
|
||
// Custom color coding.
|
||
const cyan = "\u001b[36m";
|
||
const green = "\u001b[32m";
|
||
const red = "\u001b[31m";
|
||
const reset = "\u001b[0m";
|
||
const msgError = "Ugh! What a mess.";
|
||
const msgSuccess = "Well done!";
|
||
const msgMixed = "ERROR Should this be in red?";
|
||
ns.print(`${red + msgError + reset}`);
|
||
ns.print(`${green + msgSuccess + reset}`);
|
||
ns.print(`${cyan + msgMixed + reset}`);
|
||
ns.tail();
|
||
```
