For my project I need to be able to print to the NodeJS console in RGB. In most browser I can use console.log('%c Oh my heavens! ', 'background: #222; color: #bada55'); but that doesn't work in NodeJS.

I have looked at the colors module but that doesn't seem to support custom colors.

It is possible to achieve this?

NodeJS console not work this way. You can use terminal colors like this:

console.log('\x1b[36m%s\x1b[0m', 'I am cyan'); //cyan 
console.log('\x1b[33m%s\x1b[0m', stringToMakeYellow); //yellow

There is little more about terminal colors: https://askubuntu.com/q/558280

There is a Node module called Tynt- and it brings easy coloring to the Node.js console.

var tynt = require("tynt");

console.log(tynt.Blue("Your blue text here!") + "  " + tynt.Red("Your red text here!"))

If you want a list of colors, you can find them here:
