progress-cli

A simple progress bar for the php cli

Install

composer require floknapp/progress-cli

How to use

$dataset = ['entry1', 'entry2', ...]; // everything that is countable
$progress = new Progress($dataset); // default progress bar width is 40 chars
for ($i=0; $i < count($dataset); $i++) { // yea yea, i know... no count in for parameters
    [... do things]
    $progress->update($i);
}

That’s it!

Further configuration

You can set a custom width:

$progress = new Progress($dataset, 80); // set progress bar width to 80 chars

You can show a summary behind the progress bar:

$progress = new Progress($dataset, 80, true); // [---------] 100% (250/250)

You can set custom start and end surroundings:

$progress = new Progress($dataset);
$progress->setProgressLimiter('(', ')'); // results in (---------) 100%

You can set a custom progress char (currently only 1 byte chars, no enhanced utf-8 chars supported):

$progress = new Progress($dataset);
$progress->setProgressChar('|'); // results in [||||||||||||] 100%
