See all

You can download this recording in asciicast v2 format, as a .cast file.

Download

Replay in terminal

You can replay the downloaded recording in your terminal using the asciinema play command:

asciinema play 29.cast

If you don't have asciinema CLI installed then see installation instructions.

Use with stand-alone player on your website

Download asciinema player from player's releases page (you only need .js and .css file), then use it like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="asciinema-player.css" />
</head>
<body>
  <div id="player"></div>
  <script src="asciinema-player.min.js"></script>
  <script>
    AsciinemaPlayer.create(
      '/assets/29.cast',
      document.getElementById('player'),
      { cols: 79, rows: 25 }
    );
  </script>
</body>
</html>

See asciinema player README for full usage instructions.

While this site doesn't offer GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed run the following command to create GIF file:

agg https://asciinema.celforyon.fr/a/29 29.gif

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:

agg 29.cast 29.gif

Check agg --help for all available options. You can change font family and size, select color theme, adjust speed and more.

See agg README for full usage instructions.
