AnyConsole

A CSharp library that gives you better console handling for that classic ASCII look.

Description

AnyConsole was designed for server service windows, utility tooling and log output windows. It's very handy if you need static header/footers on your consoles while maintaining scrollable areas, adding visual components or more advanced input management such as mouse control. It integrates very well with TopShelf for services.

Installation

Install AnyConsole from the Package Manager Console:

PM> Install-Package AnyConsole

Visual Examples

-coming shortly-

Usage

var console = new ExtendedConsole();
console.Configure(config =>
{
    config.SetStaticRow("Header", RowLocation.Top, Color.White, Color.DarkRed);
    config.SetStaticRow("SubHeader", RowLocation.Top, 1, Color.White, Color.FromArgb(30, 30, 30));
    config.SetStaticRow("Footer", RowLocation.Bottom, Color.White, Color.DarkBlue);
    config.SetLogHistoryContainer(RowLocation.Top, 2);
});
console.WriteRow("Header", "My Game Server", ColumnLocation.Left, Color.Yellow); // show text on the left
console.WriteRow("Header", Component.Time, ColumnLocation.Right); // show the time on the right
console.WriteRow("SubHeader", "This is a test application console", ColumnLocation.Left, Color.FromArgb(60, 60, 60));
console.Start();
console.WaitForClose();

Features

  • Static headers display
  • Text alignment
  • Keyboard/mouse event handling (windows only)
  • Overrides stdout for static display of scrollable content
  • Full color support thanks to Colorful integration!
  • Component rendering (built-in rendered components, and custom components of your own)
  • Text output formatting of logs
  • Multithreaded

Components

Components allow you to easily add UI elements to your console application, that self update and render. Common usage would be a DateTime component that always displays the current time.

Built-in components

  • DateTime
  • Memory usage
  • Drive usage
  • Drive activity
  • IP Address
  • Network Bandwidth

Custom components

Custom components need to simply implement IComponent and it will be rendered to the display. More details to come...
