ConsoleProgressBar

Console progress bar for long-running operations

This class creates a console progress bar (status bar) for long-running operations. Visually, it's very similar to the unix command line utilites "pv" and "wget". You can customize the look to your taste.

In addition, it's funny, but it may be useful. Just for fun! :)

Usage example:
% Create Instance
cpb = ConsoleProgressBar();

% Set progress bar parameters
cpb.setLeftMargin(1); % progress bar left margin
cpb.setTopMargin(1); % rows margin

cpb.setLength(40); % progress bar length: [.....]
cpb.setMinimum(0); % minimum value of progress range [min max]
cpb.setMaximum(100); % maximum value of progress range [min max]

cpb.start();

for k = 0:100
userText = sprintf('Progress: [%d/%d]', k, 100);

cpb.setValue(k); % update progress value
cpb.setText(userText) % update user text

pause(0.025)
end

cpb.stop();
