Ability to rewind/reset progress #113

Closed TIBCOeddie closed 2 years ago

TIBCOeddie commented 2 years ago

If I am looping, I might want to show progress, and upon completing (or at any point, really) I would like to continue using the same bar, but re-set to zero. There appears to be no API that accomplishes this.

ctongfei commented 2 years ago

This is not recommended since it meddles with how the progress bar estimates the time of completion (a recommended way is to start a new progress bar). But if you must, you can do

bar.stepTo(0)

to forcibly set the progress to 0.

As you point out, stepTo(0) doesn't really reset things, thus hold this issue for the improvement. I would have a reset() that would be equivalent to creating a new one, but without a newline/new visual progress bar.
