golang-progress
What?
It's a progress indicator for your terminal apps. In go.
Why?
It's cute and better than a screen full of dots.
How?
Trivially!
If you're cool with the custom animation you just call:
p := progress.NewSpinner()
p.Start("Some message")If you want a custom animation that comes bundled with the backage then you can:
p := progress.NewSpinnerWithFrames(progress.Animation["growVertical"])
p.Start("Your message")When your command finishes just call p.Stop() or p.Stopln()
