Development

I’m wondering about the output of foreman-maintain service that’s pretty verbose in forklift:

changed: [pipeline-upgrade-centos7] => changed=true 
  cmd:
  - katello-service
  - stop
  delta: '0:00:29.444363'
  end: '2018-12-04 18:59:46.793389'
  rc: 0
  start: '2018-12-04 18:59:17.349026'
  stderr: ''
  stderr_lines: []
  stdout: |-

It looks like a spinner is being shown which just appends. I’m not quite sure where this should be fixed though. Suggestions?

I’ve seen this too in formena-maintain output from sat-clone (also uses ansible) as well. @mbacovsky may have some ideas on if/how we should improve this in foreman-maintain.

Checking whether foreman-maintain has a TTY and disabling spinners and other interactive features if not (the output is redirected/being captured). The maybe less complicated solution would be to add a flag to disable this by hand.

I agree with Adam, we should add both the TTY detection and some eye-candy-less mode switch to the foreman-maintain. I quite like how verbosity levels were consolidated in hammer recently, it may be time to do the same in foreman-maintain.

@ekohl, could you file this as an issue in foreman-maintain Redmine ?

I’ve opened Feature #25630: Use TTY detection to set an appropriate output level - Foreman Maintain - Foreman
