NAMEText::ANSI::WideUtil - Routines for text containing ANSI color codes (wide-character functions only) VERSIONThis document describes version 0.232 of Text::ANSI::WideUtil (from Perl distribution Text-ANSI-WideUtil), released on 2021-04-14. SYNOPSISuse Text::ANSI::WideUtil qw( ta_mbpad ta_mbsubstr ta_mbswidth ta_mbswidth_height ta_mbtrunc ta_mbwrap ); # calculate visual width of text if printed on terminal (can handle Unicode # wide characters and exclude the ANSI color codes) say ta_mbswidth("\e[31mred"); # => 3 say ta_mbswidth("\e[31m红色"); # => 4 # ditto, but also return the number of lines say ta_mbswidth_height("\e[31mred\n红色"); # => [4, 2] # wrap text to a certain column width, handle ANSI color codes say ta_mbwrap(...); # pad (left, right, center) text to a certain width say ta_mbpad(...); # truncate text to a certain width while still passing ANSI color codes say ta_mbtrunc(...); # get substring, like ta_substr() my $substr = ta_mbsubstr("...", $pos, $len); # return text but with substring replaced with replacement say ta_mbsubstr("...", $pos, $len, $replacement); DESCRIPTIONThis module contains the wide-character variant ("ta_mb*()") for some functions in Text::ANSI::Util. It is split so only this module requires Text::WideChar::Util and Text::ANSI::Util can be kept slim. FUNCTIONSta_mbpad($text, $width[, $which[, $padchar[, $truncate]]]) => STRPad <$text> to $width. Like ta_pad() but it uses ta_mbswidth() to determine visual width instead of ta_length(). See documentation for ta_pad() for more details on the other arguments. ta_mbtrunc($text, $width) => STRTruncate $text to $width. Like ta_trunc() but it uses ta_mbswidth() to determine visual width instead of ta_length(). ta_mbswidth($text) => INTReturn visual width of $text (in number of columns) if printed on terminal. Equivalent to "Text::WideChar::Util::mbswidth(ta_strip($text))". This function can be used e.g. in making sure that your text aligns vertically when output to the terminal in tabular/table format. Note that ta_mbswidth() handles multiline text correctly, e.g.: ta_mbswidth("foo\nbarbaz") gives 6 instead of 3-1+8 = 8. It splits the input text first with "/\r?\n/" as separator. ta_mbswidth_height($text) => [INT, INT]Like ta_mbswidth(), but also gives height (number of lines). For example, ta_mbswidth_height("西爪哇\nb\n") gives "[6, 3]". ta_mbwrap($text, $width, \%opts) => STRLike ta_wrap(), but it uses ta_mbswidth() to determine visual width instead of ta_length(). Performance: ~300/s on my Core i5 1.7GHz laptop for a ~1KB of text (with zero to moderate amount of color codes). As a comparison, Text::WideChar::Util's mbwrap() can do about 650/s. ta_mbsubstr($text, $pos, $len[ , $replacement ]) => STRLike ta_substr(), but handles wide characters. $pos is counted in visual width, not number of characters. FAQWhy split functionalities of wide character and color support into multiple modules/distributions?Performance (see numbers in the function description), dependency (Unicode::GCString is used for wide character support), and overhead (loading Unicode::GCString). How do I truncate string based on number of characters instead of columns?You can simply use ta_trunc() even on text containing wide characters. ta_trunc() uses Perl's length() which works on a per-character basis.
