cowsay is a configurable talking cow, originally written in Perl by Tony Monroe.

This project is a translation in JavaScript of the original program and an attempt to bring the same silliness to node.js.

Install

npm install cowsay-browser

Usage as a module

cowsay can be used as any other npm dependency

var cowsay = require("cowsay-browser");

console.log(cowsay.say({
	text : "I'm a moooodule",
	e : "oO",
	T : "U "
}));

// or cowsay.think()

                ||     ||

Usage as CLI

You have to install cowsay-browser globally to use it outside your current project : npm install -g cowsay-browser

cowsay JavaScript FTW!

or

cowthink node.js is cool

It acts in the same way as the original cowsay, so consult cowsay(1) or run cowsay -h
