In test.py,

import time
from cherab.phix.tools import Spinner

# Use as a context manager
with Spinner():
    time.sleep(3.0)

# Context manager with text
with Spinner(text="Processing..."):
    time.sleep(3.0)

# Context manager with custom sequence
with Spinner(frames="-\|/", interval=0.05):
    time.sleep(3.0)

# As decorator
@Spinner(text="Loading...")
def foo():
    time.sleep(3.0)
foo()

# Context manager writing message
with Spinner() as sp:
    # task 1
    time.sleep(1.0)
    sp.write("> image 1 download complete")

    # task 2
    time.sleep(2.0)
    sp.write("> image 2 download complete")

    # finalize
    time.sleep(1.0)
    sp.ok("✅")
