- # supports-color [](https://travis-ci.org/chalk/supports-color)
- > Detect whether a terminal supports color
- ## Install
- ```
- $ npm install supports-color
- ```
- ## Usage
- ```js
- const supportsColor = require('supports-color');
- if (supportsColor.stdout) {
- console.log('Terminal stdout supports color');
- }
- if (supportsColor.stdout.has256) {
- console.log('Terminal stdout supports 256 colors');
- }
- if (supportsColor.stderr.has16m) {
- console.log('Terminal stderr supports 16 million colors (truecolor)');
- }
- ```
- ## API
- Returns an `Object` with a `stdout` and `stderr` property for testing either streams. Each property is an `Object`, or `false` if color is not supported.
- The `stdout`/`stderr` objects specifies a level of support for color through a `.level` property and a corresponding flag:
- - `.level = 1` and `.hasBasic = true`: Basic color support (16 colors)
- - `.level = 2` and `.has256 = true`: 256 color support
- - `.level = 3` and `.has16m = true`: Truecolor support (16 million colors)
- ## Info
- It obeys the `--color` and `--no-color` CLI flags.
- For situations where using `--color` is not possible, use the environment variable `FORCE_COLOR=1` (level 1), `FORCE_COLOR=2` (level 2), or `FORCE_COLOR=3` (level 3) to forcefully enable color, or `FORCE_COLOR=0` to forcefully disable. The use of `FORCE_COLOR` overrides all other color support checks.
- Explicit 256/Truecolor mode can be enabled using the `--color=256` and `--color=16m` flags, respectively.
