Moves the cursor lines
cells back. If the cursor is already at the edge of the screen, this has no effect
Kind: static method of cursor
Param | Type | Default |
---|---|---|
[lines] | number |
1 |
cursor.nextLine([lines]) ⇒ string
Moves cursor to beginning of the line n lines down.
Kind: static method of cursor
Param | Type | Default |

cursor.horizontalAbsolute(n) ⇒ string
Moves the cursor to column n.
Kind: static method of cursor
Param | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
n | number |
column number |
cursor.position(n, m) ⇒ string
Moves the cursor to row n, column m. The values are 1-based, and default to 1 (top left corner) if omitted.

Param | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
n | number |
row number |
m | number |
column number |
ansi.erase
erase sequences
Kind: static property of ansi-escape-sequences
- .erase
- .display(n) ⇒
string
- .inLine(n) ⇒
string
- .display(n) ⇒
erase.display(n) ⇒ string
Clears part of the screen. If n is 0 (or missing), clear from cursor to end of screen. If n is 1, clear from cursor to beginning of the screen. If n is 2, clear entire screen.
Kind: static method of erase
Param | Type |
---|---|
n | number |
erase.inLine(n) ⇒ string
Erases part of the line. If n is zero (or missing), clear from cursor to the end of the line. If n is one, clear from cursor to beginning of the line. If n is two, clear entire line. Cursor position does not change.

ansi.styles(effectArray) ⇒ string
Returns an ansi sequence setting one or more effects
Kind: static method of ansi-escape-sequences
Param | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
effectArray | string | Array.<string> |
a style, or list or styles |
Example
> ansi.styles('green')

> ansi.styles([ 'green', 'underline' ])
'\u001b[32;4m'
ansi.format(str, [styleArray]) ⇒ string
A convenience function, applying the provided styles to the input string and then resetting.
Inline styling can be applied using the syntax [style-list]{text to format}
, where style-list
is a space-separated list of styles from ansi.style. For example [bold white bg-red]{bold white text on a red background}
.
Kind: static method of ansi-escape-sequences
Param | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
str | string |
the string to format |
[styleArray] | Array.<string> |
a list of styles to add to the input string |
Example
> ansi.format('what?', 'green')
'\u001b[32mwhat?\u001b[0m'
> ansi.format('what?', ['green', 'bold'])
'\u001b[32;1mwhat?\u001b[0m'
> ansi.format('[green bold]{what?}')
'\u001b[32;1mwhat?\u001b[0m'
Load anywhere
This library is compatible with Node.js, the Web and any style of module loader. It can be loaded anywhere, natively without transpilation.
Node.js:
const ansi = require('ansi-escape-sequences')
Within Node.js with ECMAScript Module support enabled:
import ansi from 'ansi-escape-sequences'
Within a modern browser ECMAScript Module:
import ansi from './node_modules/ansi-escape-sequences/dist/index.mjs'
Old browser (adds window.ansi
):
<script nomodule src="./node_modules/ansi-escape-sequences/dist/index.js"></script>
