Have you ever tried updating the console with text that changes multiple times a second? Remember how when you tried clearing the console with os.system calls it would make the console flash and make the text unreadable? I wrote this python module to prevent exactly that. Introducing...
ConsoleDraw
A python module to update the console without flashing.
Supported Operating Systems
The consoledraw module should be supported on Windows, Linux and Mac (although it has not been tested on Mac).
Installation
The consoledraw module can be installed using pip.
pip install consoledraw
Demo
demo.py:
from math import sin
from time import sleep
import consoledraw
console = consoledraw.Console()
x = 0
while True:
with console:
for i in range(23):
console.print(" |" + " " * round(abs(sin((x + i) * 0.05)) * 9.5) + "O") # Prints to the custom console's buffer (works the same as python's built-in print)
x += 1
sleep(1/60)
with console:
console.print("Hello, world!")
console.print("Another message!")
# is the same as
console.clear()
console.print("Hello, world!")
console.print("Another message!")
console.update()
