TqdmSharp 1.1.0

TqdmSharp

TqdmSharp is a C# implementation of the tqdm progress bar, providing an easy-to-use and visually appealing way to track progress in console applications. Inspired by the cpptqdm project, we extend our gratitude to its creator for the inspiration and groundwork laid out in the original C++ implementation.

Features

• Simple API for wrapping collections and enumerables.
• Customizable progress bar themes.
• Real-time progress updates.
• Supports exponential moving average for rate calculation.
• Adjustable width and update frequency.

Installation

.NET CLI

dotnet add package MinHashSharp

NuGet Package Manager

Install-Package MinHashSharp

Usage Examples

Standard Use

Easily wrap a collection for progress tracking. Ideal for quick integration with existing collections:

var arr = Enumerable.Range(0, 100).ToArray();
foreach (int item in Tqdm.Wrap(arr)) {
    // Perform your operations here
}

Adding a Label to the Progress Bar

Enhance clarity by adding a descriptive label to the progress bar, useful for distinguishing different stages or types of iterations:

var arr = Enumerable.Range(0, 100).ToArray();
foreach (int item in Tqdm.Wrap(arr, out var bar)) {
    bar.SetLabel("Processing stage");
    // Your processing logic here
}

Specifying Enumerable with a Count

When working with enumerables where the total count is known, provide it directly to track progress accurately:

var enumerable = Enumerable.Range(0, 100);
foreach (int item in Tqdm.Wrap(enumerable, 100)) {
    // Iteration tasks here
}

Basic Usage of the ProgressBar Class

Directly use the ProgressBar class for more control and customization over the progress tracking:

int count = 10;
var bar = new Tqdm.ProgressBar(total: count);
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
    bar.Progress(i);
    // Custom operation
}

Dynamically Updating the Total Counter

Modify the total counter as your operation progresses, useful for processes with a variable number of iterations:

int count = 10;
var bar = new Tqdm.ProgressBar(total: count);
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
    if (i % 7 == 0) count *= 2;
    bar.Progress(i, count);
    // Adjusted operation based on new count
}

Exploring Additional Parameters

TqdmSharp offers additional parameters for fine-tuning the progress bar's behavior, including the ability to use exponential moving average for rate calculation, adjusting the width of the progress bar, and setting the update frequency for real-time progress updates.

Demonstration

To showcase the functionality and visual appeal of TqdmSharp, here's a simple demonstration using the Wrap method with color enhancement. In this example, we iterate over a range of numbers, with each iteration pausing briefly to simulate a longer-running process. The useColor: true parameter adds a vibrant touch to the progress bar, making it more visually engaging. Observe how the progress bar updates in real-time with each iteration:

var arr = Enumerable.Range(0, 100).ToArray();
foreach (int item in Tqdm.Wrap(arr, useColor: true)) {
    // do something to not complete instantly
    Thread.Sleep(50);
}
