Feature request: provide a way to run with --quiet and --fix options

[lencioni]

I sometimes want to run eslint with the --quiet and --fix options to autofix rules across large numbers of files. I was unable to find a way to use these options with the jest runner and think it would be really great if there was a way.

If there is already a way, it would be wonderful to document it!

Hi 👋,

Thanks for reporting!

Yeah this will be real nice. I think this is part of a broader discussion (How to configure Jest runners?), for which there is an ongoing discussion here -> https://github.com/facebook/jest/issues/4278

Off the top of my head I think of some different paths that we could take.

• Fix it in facebook/jest and allow for a way to customize runners
• AFAIK passing unknown CLI args to Jest will cause jest to fail with an unrecognized arg error. Maybe there could be a way to pass extra unknown args, but this will get weird when running wiht multiple projects at the same time.
• Come up with a solution similar to jest-runner-mocha#custom-config-options, where we add yet another config file(jest-runner-eslint.config.js) or field in the package.json

This doesn't mean that they are the correct solutions, so I'm more than open to better solutions

Can runner options be passed on the command line?

That would be awesome but right now Jest returns

❯ yarn jest -- --watch --quiet --fix

● Unrecognized CLI Parameters:

  Following options were not recognized:
  ["quiet", "fix"]

  CLI Options Documentation:
  http://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/cli.html

error Command failed with exit code 1.

That's not what I meant - custom reporters in a jest config can take options https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/en/configuration.html#reporters-array-modulename-modulename-options - can those be provided via command line at all, in --reporters?

Oh sorry, I misunderstood... my bad!

No, runners can't do that right now, but that is one of the proposals on how to add configs to runners https://github.com/facebook/jest/issues/4278#issuecomment-326676409
