The list of spinners is just a [JSON file](spinners.json) and can be used wherever.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You probably want to use one of these spinners through the [`ora`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/ora) module.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Install
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
npm install cli-spinners
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Usage
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
const cliSpinners = require('cli-spinners');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
console.log(cliSpinners.dots);
 | 
						|
/*
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
	interval: 80,
 | 
						|
	frames: ['⠋', '⠙', '⠹', '⠸', '⠼', '⠴', '⠦', '⠧', '⠇', '⠏']
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
*/
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Preview
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The header GIF is outdated. See all the [spinner at once](https://jsfiddle.net/sindresorhus/2eLtsbey/embedded/result/) or [one at the time](https://asciinema.org/a/95348?size=big).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## API
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Each spinner comes with a recommended `interval` and an array of `frames`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[See the spinners.](spinners.json)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `random` spinner will return a random spinner each time it's called.
