jabbar

Just Another Beautiful progress BAR (some might replace Beautiful by Boring).

jabbar is a python package implementing a simple progress bar. The output looks like:

75% |█████████████████      | 750/1000

It is lightweight, easy to use and customizable. As a special feature, it gracefully deals with seeing more items than expected, e.g. 1100/1000. Also, it supports unicorns.

For very serious work, you may want to try e.g. the slightly more professional tqdm package.

Install

jabbar can be installed from PyPI via your favorite shell:

$ pip install jabbar

or from the latest code on GitHub with:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/yannikschaelte/jabbar.git

Get started

jabbar is quite flexible and can operate in different modes.

jabbar can simply wrap around any iterable to make loops show a little progress bar:

from jabbar import jabbar
for _ in jabbar(range(1000)):
    pass

The updating scheme can also be individually specified:

from jabbar import jabbar
with jabbar(total=1000, width=30) as bar:
    for _ in range(50):
        bar.inc(20)

When usage of a context manager is undesirable, use jabbar.finish() to clean up the output.

Further examples can be found in the example/howto.ipynb notebook.
