Can't get formatters to work

[ryanlntn]

I must be missing something. I just can't seem to get documentation format to work. I have the following in my teaspoon_env.rb:

Teaspoon.configure do |config|
  config.formatters = "documentation"
end

And in my Guardfile:

guard :teaspoon, cmd: "spring teaspoon -f=documentation" do
  watch(%r{^app/assets/javascripts/(.+).js}) { |m| "#{m[1]}_spec" }
  watch(%r{^spec/javascripts/(.*)})
end

And yet I keep getting dot format.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

try

  config.formatters = ["documentation"]

yeah, I think that's probably it.. thanks @coderjonny.

It's an array because multiple formatters can be used -- to generate artifacts and console output.

Switching to config.formatters = ["documentation"] doesn't have any effect.

Hmm it could have something to do with that guard cmd

I think you may be right. Running the same command outside of guard produces the correct format:

:-/ hmmmm... I wrote the guard-teaspoon gem as a helper for people to get started, but it seems like it requires more maintenance than the community that uses it can provide. I don't use guard, and so only took an initial stab at it.

My guess is that the options that make it through to teaspoon are not correct, or are being overridden by guard -- which I believe is probably the case.

[ryanlntn]

Yeah it looks like there's already an issue over there too: https://github.com/modeset/guard-teaspoon/issues/33

If I get some time I might take a look at it and see if I can figure out why the options aren't making it through. If not, dot format will have to do. :wink:

I think the guard-teaspoon project is overriding those things, so you may be able to configure it differently on that end.
