alive-progress is a Python library providing animated terminal progress bars with live spinners, real-time throughput, and ETA estimation. It features multithreaded updates with low CPU usage and supports pausing/resuming from the REPL.
Use cases
- show a progress bar for long-running python loops
- display eta and throughput in the terminal
- add animated spinner to cli scripts
- monitor progress of remote ssh jobs
- pause processing and resume from python repl
When to choose
- you need a visually rich terminal progress bar in python
- you want accurate eta and throughput stats
- you need low-overhead updates for fast iterations
When to avoid
- you need progress bars in gui or web applications
- you need a tui framework with full layout control
- your output environment doesn't support terminal control codes
