grunt-verbosity


> Adjust verbosity for individual grunt tasks

This plugin simply hooks until grunt.log.writeln to allow you to cleanup log output.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

``shell
npm install grunt-verbosity --save-dev
`

One the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

`js
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-verbosity');
`




The verbosity task

$3


In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named verbosity to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

`js
grunt.initConfig({
verbosity: {
// Default
option1: {
// options: { mode: 'hidden' },
tasks: ['copy']
},

// Output is rewritten on the line to show progress but save space
option2: {
options: { mode: 'oneline' },
tasks: ['copy:files']
},

// Output is normal. Useful for debugging without commenting out the whole block
option3: {
options: { mode: 'normal' },
tasks: ['copy:something']
}
},
})
`




$3

#### options.mode
Type: String
Default value: normal

A string value to determine how to modify grunt.log.writeln output.

- hidden (Default): See the task get executed, but not its output
- oneline: See the output overwrite the same line to conserve space
- normal: See the output without modification. Useful for debugging.
- dot: See each line of output reduced to a dot to show progress.
