<p>You do not need to create an instance of the CLI library, since all of its methods are static. Instead, you simply
need to ensure your controller can locate it via a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">use</span></code> statement above your class:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>

<p>The class is automatically initialized when the file is loaded the first time.</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id2">Getting Input from the User</a><a class="headerlink" href="#getting-input-from-the-user" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Sometimes you need to ask the user for more information. They might not have provided optional command-line
arguments, or the script may have encountered an existing file and needs confirmation before overwriting. This is
handled with the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">prompt()</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">promptByKey()</span></code> method.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>Since v4.3.0, you can write tests for these methods with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">PhpStreamWrapper</span></code>.

<p>Several methods are provided for you to provide feedback to your users. This can be as simple as a single status update
or a complex table of information that wraps to the users terminal window. At the core of this is the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">write()</span></code>
method which takes the string to output as the first parameter:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>
<span class="nx">CLI</span><span class="o">::</span><span class="na">write</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plains.&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>You can change the color of the text by passing in a color name as the second parameter:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>
<span class="nx">CLI</span><span class="o">::</span><span class="na">write</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;File created.&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s1">&#39;green&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>

</div>
<p>This could be used to differentiate messages by status, or create headers by using a different color. You can
even set background colors by passing the color name in as the third parameter:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>

<p>Print functions identically to the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">write()</span></code> method, except that it does not force a newline either before or after.
Instead it prints it to the screen wherever the cursor is currently. This allows you to print multiple items all on
the same line, from different calls. This is especially helpful when you want to show a status, do something, then
print “Done” on the same line:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>

<section id="color">
<span id="cli-library-color"></span><h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id9">color()</a><a class="headerlink" href="#color" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>While the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">write()</span></code> command will write a single line to the terminal, ending it with a EOL character, you can
use the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">color()</span></code> method to make a string fragment that can be used in the same way, except that it will not force
an EOL after printing. This allows you to create multiple outputs on the same row. Or, more commonly, you can use
it inside of a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">write()</span></code> method to create a string of a different color inside:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>
<span class="nx">CLI</span><span class="o">::</span><span class="na">write</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;fileA </span><span class="se">\t</span><span class="s2">&quot;</span> <span class="o">.</span> <span class="nx">CLI</span><span class="o">::</span><span class="na">color</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;/path/to/file&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s1">&#39;white&#39;</span><span class="p">),</span> <span class="s1">&#39;yellow&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>This example would write a single line to the window, with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">fileA</span></code> in yellow, followed by a tab, and then
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/path/to/file</span></code> in white text.</p>
</section>
<section id="error">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id10">error()</a><a class="headerlink" href="#error" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>If you need to output errors, you should use the appropriately named <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">error()</span></code> method. This writes light-red text
to STDERR, instead of STDOUT, like <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">write()</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">color()</span></code> do. This can be useful if you have scripts watching
for errors so they dont have to sift through all of the information, only the actual error messages. You use it
exactly as you would the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">write()</span></code> method:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>
<span class="nx">CLI</span><span class="o">::</span><span class="na">error</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;Cannot write to file: &#39;</span> <span class="o">.</span> <span class="nv">$file</span><span class="p">);</span>

</section>
<section id="wrap">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id11">wrap()</a><a class="headerlink" href="#wrap" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>This command will take a string, start printing it on the current line, and wrap it to a set length on new lines.
This might be useful when displaying a list of options with descriptions that you want to wrap in the current
window and not go off screen:</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>
<span class="nx">CLI</span><span class="o">::</span><span class="na">color</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;task1</span><span class="se">\t</span><span class="s2">&quot;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s1">&#39;yellow&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>
<span class="nx">CLI</span><span class="o">::</span><span class="na">wrap</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;Some long description goes here that might be longer than the current window.&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>By default, the string will wrap at the terminal width. Windows currently doesnt provide a way to determine
the window size, so we default to 80 characters. If you want to restrict the width to something shorter that
you can be pretty sure fits within the window, pass the maximum line-length as the second parameter. This
will break the string at the nearest word barrier so that words are not broken.</p>
<div class="highlight-html+php notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">&lt;?</span><span class="nx">php</span>
<span class="c1">// Wrap the text at max 20 characters wide</span>

</pre></div>
</div>
<p>You may find that you want a column on the left of titles, files, or tasks, while you want a column of text
on the right with their descriptions. By default, this will wrap back to the left edge of the window, which
doesnt allow things to line up in columns. In cases like this, you can pass in a number of spaces to pad
every line after the first line, so that you will have a crisp column edge on the left:</p>
