# Color Beaver comes with the `color` sub-package that can be used even without Beaver calls. ## Formatting a string with a single attribute ```go text := color.FgRed.Format("red") ``` ## Formatting a string with a full color ```go text := color.New(color.BgGreen, color.FgRed, color.Bold).Format("green background, red text, and bold") ``` ## Formatting strings with multiple colors The following are different ways to print `This is a color test!` where the word `color` is red while everything else is `green`. ### setup Assuming each example is preceded by ```go green := color.New(color.FgGreen) red := color.New(color.FgRed) ``` #### pure `fmt.Println` ```go fmt.Println(green.Format("This is a"), red.Format("color"), green.Format("test!")) ``` #### `color.Wrap` ```go fmt.Println(green.Wrap("This is a #{color} test!", red)) ``` #### string formatting with `fmt.Printf` and `color.Wrap` ```go fmt.Printf(green.Wrap("This is a #{%s} test!\n", red), "color") ``` #### using a different directive prefix ```go color.DirectivePrefix('$') fmt.Printf(green.Wrap("This is a ${%s} test!\n", red), "color") ```
