API

This library follows a non-error-throwing philosophy. If you provide an invalid option or an invalid value for a valid option it will be ignored.

$3

#### new Spinnies([options])

Parameters
- options - object:
- color - string: Any valid chalk color. The default value is white.
- succeedColor - string: Any valid chalk color. The default value is green.
- failColor - string: Any valid chalk color. The default value is red.
- spinnerColor - string: Any valid chalk color. The default value is greenBright.
- succeedPrefix - string: The default value is ✓.
- failPrefix- string: The default value is ✖.
- spinner- object:
- interval - number
- frames - string[]

You can see the already provided spinner here.
- disableSpins - boolean: Disable spins (will still print raw messages).

Note: If you are working in any win32 platform, the default spin animation will be overriden. You can get rid of this defining a different spinner animation manually, or by using the integrated VSCode terminal or Windows Terminal.

Example:

`js
const spinner = { interval: 80, frames: ['🍇', '🍈', '🍉', '🍋'] }
const spinnies = new Spinnies({ color: 'blue', succeedColor: 'green', spinner });
`
