This is a supper simple spinner / activity indicator for Node.js. I've used it in a few console tools that I've written in Node.js, where I've wanted to show that there is activity and that the program isn't hung.
So simple it only has 3 functions.
- start([interval in ms])
- Obviously this starts the spinner. You can give it how quickly you want it to go through the sequence of characters. Defaults to 250ms.
- stop()
- I really shouldn't have to explain this one...
- change_sequence(sequence)
- Use this if you don't like the default spinning stick. Give it an array of strings like this
[".", "o", "0", "@", "*"]
