Verboseness of verbose flag #19

Open stefanbuck opened 3 years ago

stefanbuck commented 3 years ago

Describe Request:

With the verbose flag set to true (default) the output includes a dump of every yaml file the validator is processing. This becomes quite noisy in a monorepo. I wonder what the discussion process was behind adding this output and if you would be open to remove it or put it behind another flag.

@stefanbuck So you'd like to see the standard log lines and only skip the yaml dumping at the end, am I right? What do you think printing instead of the file contents only the file paths would be more helpful?

stefanbuck commented 2 years ago

Yes, only the standard output and as you suggested the file paths. We run backstage-entity-validator on CI with hundreds of files to validated and the output is quite verbose in this case.
