Disable chalk colors when using API?

[pdehaan]

I'm using the API example from the README file, and notice that my output has all the chalk color codes sprinkled through the messages. Not sure if there is a flag or setting to disable the colors when I'm using the API instead of having to pass the --no-color flag via the CLI.

$ node index
[ error: [],
  warning: [ '\u001b[33mwarning\u001b[39m: \u001b[90mmissing \'bugs\'\u001b[39m',
    '\u001b[33mwarning\u001b[39m: \u001b[90mmissing \'keywords\'\u001b[39m',
    '\u001b[33mwarning\u001b[39m: \u001b[90mmissing \'homepage\'\u001b[39m',
    '\u001b[33mwarning\u001b[39m: \u001b[90mmissing \'repository\'\u001b[39m' ],
  success: [],
  info: [ '\u001b[90minfo\u001b[39m: \u001b[1mpackage.json\u001b[22m is near to be \u001b[1mfine\u001b[22m. Check the file and run again.' ] ]

Versus:

$ node index --no-color
[ error: [],
  warning: [ 'warning: missing \'bugs\'',
    'warning: missing \'keywords\'',
    'warning: missing \'homepage\'',
    'warning: missing \'repository\'' ],
  success: [],
  info: [ 'info: package.json is near to be fine. Check the file and run again.' ] ]

Maybe something like this (passing in a boolean colors value into the finepack options arg). Not sure if there is an easy way to default colors to true for the CLI and false for the API.

var options = {
  filename: filename,
  lint: true,
  colors: false
}

finepack(filedata, options, function(err, output, messages){
  if (err) {...}
});

You're awesome!

check the new 2.1.0 tagged version. I updated the documentation as well (changes in the code here).

If you detect a bug, please report it! :-)
