Robert Scholte commented on MNG-6220: ------------------------------------- [~mryan] Just to let you know: Arnaud is working on both Maven and Jenkins (Cloudbees). We should try to only keep a limit set of CLI options. Based on Arnauds answer there's no need for such an option. And to me that makes sense: the output for Maven (console) and Jenkins (webpage) is different, so Jenkins must do output parsing anyway to enable/disable color support. > Add CLI options to control color output > --------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-6220 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6220 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Manuel Ryan > > Currently, the only way to enable/disable color output is to use the > batch-mode or log-file options. > If a user wants colored output but no interactivity (ie: jenkins environment > with the ansicolor plugin), there is no CLI option combination to support the > use-case. > I propose to add an option to control output coloring directly. > {noformat} > --color=enabled <- color output always enabled > --color=disabled <- color output always disabled > --color=auto <- current behavior (default) > {noformat} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
