euro-flags

Print the flags of 28 European countries to the console using unicode box characters and ANSI-256 colors!

Usage

Via npx:

Print all flags:

$ npx euro-flags

Print specific flags:

$ npx euro-flags <country-name>
$ npx euro-flags <country-name> --border
$ npx euro-flags <country-name> --scale=<scale-number>
$ npx euro-flags <country-name> --scale=full

Via Global Install

$ npm install --global euro-flags

then:

$ euro-flags
$ euro-flags <country-name>
$ euro-flags <country-name> --border
$ euro-flags <country-name> --scale=<scale-number>
$ euro-flags <country-name> --scale=full

Via Import

$ npm install euro_flags

then:

const euro_flags = require('euro-flags');
console.log(euro_flags['<country-name>'].create(<scale-number>, <border-boolean>));

Options

Standard Flag

$ euro-flags <country-name>

Add a Border

To add a border, add the --border flag:

$ euro-flags <country-name> --border

Make it Bigger

To increase the scale, add the --scale=<positive-number> flag. The value can be any integer greater than or equal to 1. (Default scale is 1). Can also use --scale=full to fit the flag to the closest terminal dimensions.

$ euro-flags <country-name> --scale=<positive-number>

Note: Each flag has its own minimum dimensions (see below), and scale just multiplies those dimensions. Therefore, the same scale will render different sizes for flags which have different minimum dimensions.

Notes

• Minimum Dimensions - The smallest possible dimensions used to render the flag (when --scale=1).
• Target Ratio - The preferred ratio to use when rendering the flag. Most flags match the target ratio exactly. Some flags are within 1-2 columns of the target ratio, in an attempt to support smaller renderings. Also assume 1 row height equals 2 column widths.
• Default Scale - The scale used to render the flag when the --scale flag is not included.
