Support colored console #25

Closed LeroyR closed 5 years ago

LeroyR commented 5 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Colored console output very useful, but the default generator installed jenkins is configured without it.

Describe the solution you'd like Deploy Jenkins with Color Plugin and activate it for generated jobs OR Install custom Theme/JS that handles colored output

Deploy Jenkins with Color Plugin and activate it for generated jobs OR Install custom Theme/JS

Any preference? I don't have any experience with either solution.

I activated the plugin for some jobs, as i think that would be preferable(I used this some time ago) but found it leaving control codes in the output... so it may be broken ([issue])(https://github.com/jenkinsci/ansicolor-plugin/issues/136) now.

I am currently using theme plugin and added the js snipped as the generator is not setting the ansi-color plugin checkbox.

I do not think it is sensible to include custom a custom theme (even just a js snipped) as an installed plugin makes it more obvious where the functionality is coming from.
