cli-sprintf-format

CLI dedicated sprintf formatter

An improved version of util.formatWithOptions

  • Provides more reliable type resolution and error handling
  • Detects color support (via supports-color)
  • Ensures colored (if supported) output not only for the inspected objects but also for primitive vaulues
  • Colored JSON (%j) formatting
  • Object inspection depth defaults to 4, but can be overriden via FORMAT_INSPECT_DEPTH environment variable
  • For %s strings are passed through inspect formatter therefore appear colored (if supported) and eventual multiline content appears inline. To escape that behavior %#s should be used instead
