- ## Usage
 
- ```js
 
- const ora = require('ora');
 
- const spinner = ora('Loading unicorns').start();
 
- setTimeout(() => {
 
- 	spinner.color = 'yellow';
 
- 	spinner.text = 'Loading rainbows';
 
- }, 1000);
 
- ```
 
- ## API
 
- ### ora([options|text])
 
- If a string is provided, it is treated as a shortcut for [`options.text`](#text).
 
- #### options
 
- Type: `Object`
 
- ##### text
 
- Type: `string`
 
- Text to display after the spinner.
 
- ##### prefixText
 
- Type: `string`
 
- Text to display before the spinner.
 
- ##### spinner
 
- Type: `string` `Object`<br>
 
- Default: `dots` <img src="screenshot-spinner.gif" width="14">
 
- Name of one of the [provided spinners](https://github.com/sindresorhus/cli-spinners/blob/master/spinners.json). See `example.js` in this repo if you want to test out different spinners. On Windows, it will always use the `line` spinner as the Windows command-line doesn't have proper Unicode support.
 
- Or an object like:
 
- ```js
 
- {
 
- 	interval: 80, // Optional
 
- 	frames: ['-', '+', '-']
 
- }
 
- ```
 
- ##### color
 
- Type: `string`<br>
 
- Default: `cyan`<br>
 
- Values: `black` `red` `green` `yellow` `blue` `magenta` `cyan` `white` `gray`
 
- Color of the spinner.
 
- ##### hideCursor
 
- Type: `boolean`<br>
 
- Default: `true`
 
- Set to `false` to stop Ora from hiding the cursor.
 
- ##### indent
 
- Type: `number`<br>
 
- Default: `0`
 
- Indent the spinner with the given number of spaces.
 
- ##### interval
 
- Type: `number`<br>
 
- Default: Provided by the spinner or `100`
 
- Interval between each frame.
 
- Spinners provide their own recommended interval, so you don't really need to specify this.
 
- ##### stream
 
- Type: `stream.Writable`<br>
 
- Default: `process.stderr`
 
- Stream to write the output.
 
- You could for example set this to `process.stdout` instead.
 
- ##### isEnabled
 
- Type: `boolean`
 
- Force enable/disable the spinner. If not specified, the spinner will be enabled if the `stream` is being run inside a TTY context (not spawned or piped) and/or not in a CI environment.
 
- Note that `{isEnabled: false}` doesn't mean it won't output anything. It just means it won't output the spinner, colors, and other ansi escape codes. It will still log text.
 
- ### Instance
 
- #### .start([text])
 
- Start the spinner. Returns the instance. Set the current text if `text` is provided.
 
- #### .stop()
 
- Stop and clear the spinner. Returns the instance.
 
- #### .succeed([text])
 
- Stop the spinner, change it to a green `✔` and persist the current text, or `text` if provided. Returns the instance. See the GIF below.
 
- #### .fail([text])
 
- Stop the spinner, change it to a red `✖` and persist the current text, or `text` if provided. Returns the instance. See the GIF below.
 
- #### .warn([text])
 
- Stop the spinner, change it to a yellow `⚠` and persist the current text, or `text` if provided. Returns the instance.
 
- #### .info([text])
 
- Stop the spinner, change it to a blue `ℹ` and persist the current text, or `text` if provided. Returns the instance.
 
- #### .isSpinning
 
- A boolean of whether the instance is currently spinning.
 
- #### .stopAndPersist([options])
 
- Stop the spinner and change the symbol or text. Returns the instance. See the GIF below.
 
- ##### options
 
- Type: `Object`
 
- ###### symbol
 
- Type: `string`<br>
 
- Default: `' '`
 
- Symbol to replace the spinner with.
 
- ###### text
 
- Type: `string`<br>
 
- Default: Current `text`
 
- Text to be persisted after the symbol
 
- ###### prefixText
 
- Type: `string`<br>
