# supports-color [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/chalk/supports-color.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/chalk/supports-color)
  
  > Detect whether a terminal supports color
  
  
  ## Install
  
  ```
  $ npm install --save supports-color
  ```
  
  
  ## Usage
  
  ```js
  var supportsColor = require('supports-color');
  
  if (supportsColor) {
  	console.log('Terminal supports color');
  }
  ```
  
  It obeys the `--color` and `--no-color` CLI flags.
  
  For situations where using `--color` is not possible, add an environment variable `FORCE_COLOR` with any value to force color. Trumps `--no-color`.
