## Install

To install `@push.rocks/consolecolor`, you need Node.js installed on your system. If you have Node.js installed, you can add `@push.rocks/consolecolor` to your project by running:

```bash
npm install @push.rocks/consolecolor --save
```

This command will install `@push.rocks/consolecolor` and add it to your project's `package.json` file.

## Usage

In this guide, we'll explore how to use `@push.rocks/consolecolor` to colorize your console output in a Node.js application. We'll cover the basics, including coloring text, backgrounds, and combining both for striking effects. This package utilizes TypeScript and ESM syntax for modern, type-safe code examples.

### Getting Started

First, ensure you have imported the library in your TypeScript file:

```typescript
import * as consolecolor from '@push.rocks/consolecolor';
```

### Coloring Text

The foundation of using `@push.rocks/consolecolor` is to change the color of the text output. You can choose from a variety of colors including blue, red, green, and more. Here's how to color a string blue:

```typescript
let blueString = consolecolor.coloredString("This text is blue.", "blue");
console.log(blueString);
```

### Adding Background Color

In addition to coloring text, you can also set the background color of your text for greater emphasis:

```typescript
let redTextOnGreen = consolecolor.coloredString("Red text on a green background.", "red", "green");
console.log(redTextOnGreen);
```

### Combining Colors

You can easily mix and match text and background colors to suit your needs. Here's an example of a more detailed usage, where we add a function to create and log messages of different severities with appropriate coloring:

```typescript
function logMessage(message: string, type: 'info' | 'warning' | 'error') {
  switch (type) {
    case 'info':
      console.log(consolecolor.coloredString(message, 'cyan'));
      break;
    case 'warning':
      console.log(consolecolor.coloredString(message, 'orange', 'black'));
      break;
    case 'error':
      console.log(consolecolor.coloredString(message, 'red', 'white'));
      break;
  }
}

logMessage('An informational message', 'info');
logMessage('A warning message', 'warning');
logMessage('An error message', 'error');
```

This example defines a `logMessage` function that accepts a message and a message type. It uses `@push.rocks/consolecolor` to color the message according to its severity.

### Advanced Usage

Beyond basic coloring, `@push.rocks/consolecolor` allows for intricate customization. For instance, you can create utilities that dynamically select colors based on conditions, enhance logging mechanisms, or implement theme-based console outputs in your Node.js applications.

Considering the capabilities of `@push.rocks/consolecolor` alongside Node.js's console object, you can create highly readable, colorful console applications that are easier to debug and pleasant to interact with.

### Conclusion

`@push.rocks/consolecolor` offers a simple yet powerful API for adding color to Node.js console applications. By following the examples provided, you can enhance the visual appeal and readability of your console output, making development and debugging a more enjoyable experience.
