Thorsten Glaser commented on MNG-6241: -------------------------------------- To add insult to injury, the 「MessageUtils.setColorEnabled(false);」 call is only in the CLI, meaning everything that calls Maven via something else (like Jenkins) must change their own code as well (like maven35-interceptor/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/cli/DefaultMavenExecutionRequestBuilder.java in Jenkins). Centralised parsing of a settings.xml entry and an environment variable (or even a JVM -Doption) would certainly help here. > colour output cannot be disabled from settings.xml or MAVEN_OPTS > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-6241 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6241 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.5.0 > Reporter: Thorsten Glaser > > Coloured output does not look very nice in a Jenkins logfile *and* breaks > some plugins we use, therefore I wish to disable it programmatically. > However, looking at the source, I find it can only be disabled by passing the > command-line options -B or -l, but not from settings.xml or via MAVEN_OPTS in > the environment. > I’ve worked around this by using dpkg-divert to move the mvn binary away and > placing this… > {{{ > # cat /usr/share/maven/bin/mvn > #!/bin/mksh-static > exec /usr/share/maven/bin/mvn.dpkg-dist -B "$@" > }}} > … in its stead, but that’s creepy at best. Please implement a setting, > ideally for settings.xml *and* MAVEN_OPTS, to disable colour. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
