Issue #16728 has been updated by Pieter van de Bruggen.
The original design intent was that non-TTY output (e.g. scripts / pipes) would have all of the log level information present as before, and would bypass coloring; TTY output would have a standard way of doing completely undecorated output, and would have colors that were more friendly to uncustomized 8-color terminals. We avoided adding an additional log level for the undecorated output out of deference to the other log destinations, instead co-opting the "notice" level for that, with the expectation that in circumstances where the undecorated output was detrimental, the message being logged would be shifted as appropriate. As an open question to the participants of this issue, would this described behavior address your problems adequately? ---------------------------------------- Bug #16728: puppet agent --verbose has lost notice tag https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16728#change-75376 Author: Malcolm Howe Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: eric sorenson Category: agent Target version: Affected Puppet version: 3.0.0 Keywords: ux Branch: In puppet 2.7 lines output from puppet agent --verbose start with a level tag such as debug, notice, info, warning, err with the exception of lines that could be considered as continuation lines. In puppet 3.0 these have become capitalized (Debug, Info etc) and the range of the colouring has changed which are fine but notice has disappeared. Example: Puppet 2.7 ^[[0;37mdebug: /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content: Executing 'diff /usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs /tmp/puppet-file20121003-21437-1039k7-0'^[[0m ^[[0;36mnotice: /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content: 394c394 < On OX_HFS_DD At 07:31 --- > On OX_HFS_DD At 07:30 ^[[0m ^[[0;36mnotice: /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content: content changed '{md5}bab2e7212b6dbf31a4aa24d80af20dff' to '{md5}7a959b40ab3403d747fe953c1855343d'^[[0m puppet 3.0.0 ^[[0;36mDebug^[[0m: Executing 'diff /usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs /tmp/puppet-file20121003-18288-1q7segx-0' /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content: 394c394 < On OX_HFS_DD At 07:31 --- > On OX_HFS_DD At 07:30 /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content: content changed '{md5}d89edc6045aa721fba77ec0f54c8c2d2' to '{md5}101441e8bf893cce06ccb87983626b8b' This is a nuisance when trying to analyse the output with a script. I am, of course, assuming it isn't an intentional change. If not I'm reporting it as a bug. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
