Title: Progress
Order: 5
RedirectFrom: progress
Description: "*Spectre.Console* can display information about long running tasks in the console using progress bars."
Highlights:
- Custom styling of progress bars.
- Multiple predefined columns such as Throughput, Estimated Time Remaining, and more.
- Fallback for non-interactive consoles such as CI runners.
Reference:
- T:Spectre.Console.Progress
- M:Spectre.Console.AnsiConsole.Progress
---
Spectre.Console can display information about long running tasks in the console.
<?# AsciiCast cast="progress" /?>
<?# Alert ?>
The progress display is not
thread safe, and using it together with other interactive components such as
prompts, status displays or other progress displays are not supported.
<?#/ Alert ?>
If the current terminal isn't considered "interactive", such as when running
in a continuous integration system, or the terminal can't display
ANSI control sequence, any progress will be displayed in a simpler way.
<?# AsciiCast cast="progress" profile="non-interactive" /?>
## Usage
```csharp
// Synchronous
AnsiConsole.Progress()
.Start(ctx =>
{
// Define tasks
var task1 = ctx.AddTask("[green]Reticulating splines[/]");
var task2 = ctx.AddTask("[green]Folding space[/]");
while(!ctx.IsFinished)
{
task1.Increment(1.5);
task2.Increment(0.5);
}
});
```
## Asynchronous progress
If you prefer to use async/await, you can use `StartAsync` instead of `Start`.
```csharp
// Asynchronous
await AnsiConsole.Progress()
.StartAsync(async ctx =>
{
// Define tasks
var task1 = ctx.AddTask("[green]Reticulating splines[/]");
var task2 = ctx.AddTask("[green]Folding space[/]");
while (!ctx.IsFinished)
{
// Simulate some work
await Task.Delay(250);
// Increment
task1.Increment(1.5);
task2.Increment(0.5);
}
});
```
## Configure
```csharp
AnsiConsole.Progress()
.AutoRefresh(false) // Turn off auto refresh
.AutoClear(false) // Do not remove the task list when done
.HideCompleted(false) // Hide tasks as they are completed
.Columns(new ProgressColumn[]
{
new TaskDescriptionColumn(), // Task description
new ProgressBarColumn(), // Progress bar
new PercentageColumn(), // Percentage
new RemainingTimeColumn(), // Remaining time
new SpinnerColumn(), // Spinner
})
.Start(ctx =>
{
// Omitted
});
```
