Thorsten Glaser created MNG-6241: ------------------------------------ Summary: 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)
