==========
terminal.js is a dead simple JavaScript library for emulating a shell environment.
**[Demo](https://www.workshop200.com/terminaljs/)**
### Install
`npm i terminal-js-emulator`
### Usage example
```javascript
import Terminal from 'terminal-js-emulator';
let t1 = new Terminal('terminal-1');
t1.setHeight("400px");
t1.print('This is sample with some additional logic:')
.print(`Are you ready? Let's go!`)
.input(`Hi! What's your name?`, function (name) {
t1.print(`Welcome, ${name}!`)
.sleep(1000, function () {
t1.print(`We have more questions to follow.`)
.input(`Enter your email, please:`, function (email) {
t1.password('Enter password:', function (password) {
t1.print(`Your name is "${name}" and your email is "${email}" and you have entered password "${password}".`)
.confirm(`Is it true?`, function (didConfirm) {
t1.print(didConfirm ? 'You confirmed!' : 'You declined!')
});
});
});
});
});
```
### Properties and methods
.print(message)
Prints the message on a new line.
.input(message, callback)
Prints the message, and shows a prompt where the user can write. When the user presses enter, the callback function fires. The callback takes one argument, which is the user input.
.password(message, callback)
The same as input but the input of the user will be hidden just like an old-fashioned terminal.
.confirm(message, callback)
Displays a confirm message, with a " (y/n)" automatically appended at the end. The callback receives the yes/no value as a boolean.
.clear()
Clears the screen.
.setPrompt()
You can customize your PS1 for the prompt. It can be set and override at any point of time.
.sleep(milliseconds, callback)
Works exactly like the JavaScript "setTimeout" function. Waits for the number of milliseconds given, then executes the callback.
.beep()
**DISMISSED** from v. 3.0. Plays a retro digital tone.
.setTextSize()
.setTextColor()
.setBackgroundColor()
.setWidth()
.setHeight()
All the ".set" methods accepts any CSS-compliant value.
.blinkingCursor(boolean)
Set to true by default.
.html
This is the top DOM element of the terminal instance. If you want to modify styling via CSS, all instances belong to a .Terminal class.
