Build CLIs with quo

Forever Scalable

Quo is a Python based toolkit for writing Command-Line Interface(CLI) applications.
Quo is making headway towards composing speedy and orderly CLI applications while forestalling any disappointments brought about by the failure to execute a CLI API.
Simple to code, easy to learn, and does not come with needless baggage.

Quo requires Python 3.8 or later.

Getting Started

Installation

You can install quo via the Python Package Index (PyPI)

pip install -U quo

quo.echo

Example 1

   from quo import echo

   echo(f"Hello, World!", fg="red", italic=True, bold=True))

Example 2

   from quo import echo

   echo(f"Quo is ", nl=False)
   echo(f"scalable", bg="red", fg="black") 

Unlike the builtin print function, echo function has improved support for handling Unicode and binary data.
It also supports handling of ANSI color sequences.

quo.prompt

   from quo import prompt

   prompt("What is your name?")

quo.Prompt

   from quo.prompt import Prompt

   session = Prompt(bottom_toolbar="Python 🐍 is great")
   session.prompt("Type something:") 

Quo autocompletion

   # Press [Tab] to autocomplete
   from quo.prompt import Prompt
   from quo.completion import WordCompleter

   completer = WordCompleter(['USA', 'UK', 'Canada', 'Kenya'])
   session = Prompt(completer=completer)
   session.prompt('Which country are you from?: ')

Quo frame

   from quo import container
   from quo.widget import TextArea, Frame
   # Example of a simple layout
   content = TextArea("Hello world🌍")
   container(
        Frame(
            content,
            title="Quo: python🐍")
         )

Quo table

   from quo.table import Table


   data = [
     ["Name", "Gender", "Age"],
     ["Alice", "F", 24],
     ["Bob", "M", 19],
     ["Dave", "M", 24]
   ]
