## API

### barHorizontal(input_obj, [options])

#### input_obj

*Required*  
Type: `Array of Numbers`  
The array whose bar chart will be created.

#### options

##### labels

*Optional*  
Type: `Boolean`  
Default: `false`  
Labels to be shown or not

##### warnings

*Optional*  
Type: `Boolean`  
Default: `false`  
Whether or not to show warnings (eg. 'missing/invalid input')

##### ascii

*Optional*  
Type: `Boolean`  
Default: `false`  
Whether or not to use the `=` when printing the bar graph(s) to stdout.

By default, this module will use the
[square](https://github.com/sindresorhus/figures/blob/dfeeb1c1733a9fe6f6b13d25f37c440ba6750c0e/index.js#L10)
character from [figures](https://www.npmjs.com/package/figures).

##### width

*Optional*  
Type: `Number`  
Default: The width of the present terminal  
If supplied, the printed bar graph will look good on a terminal of the supplied
width's length.


##### noPrint

*Optional*  
Type: `Boolean`  
Default: `false`  
Whether `barHorizontal` should print the results to the console or not. If
`noPrint` is set, then the function will return the string and print nothing to
the console

## Testing
This module uses the [mocha](https://mochajs.org/) test framework. The test suite can be run by invoking `npm test` from the root directory.
