I did a test with the {fmt} and was super easy to change background color, but I can't get the same with spdlog.
I can get the same result with spdlog, but is a weird code
fmt::print( bg( fmt::terminal_color::yellow ) | fg( fmt::terminal_color::black ), " {1:<{0}}\n", 120, "message" );
spdlog::set_pattern( "%v" );
spdlog::info( "\033[43m\033[30m {1:<{0}} \033[m", 120, "message" );
If I understand your question correctly, you want to format your spdlog
output using fmt
, rather than having to specify the escape sequences yourself. For this, you can use the fmt::format
function and use its output as a variable for spdlog
:
#include <spdlog/spdlog.h>
#include <spdlog/fmt/bundled/color.h>
int main(){
spdlog::info( "Printing a string formatted with fmt: {}",
fmt::format(
fmt::bg( fmt::terminal_color::yellow ) |
fmt::fg( fmt::terminal_color::black ) |
fmt::emphasis::bold,
"message"
)
);
return 0;
}
