(idea/suggestion) quiet/silent flag #66

Closed Falkgaard closed 5 years ago

Falkgaard commented 5 years ago

Hi,

It would be nice if there were an argument like "-s" to tell compiledb not to print the lines starting with ## or the line with the ().

At the moment I'm using:

compiledb make | grep -v "## *\|()"

when compiling from my terminal, but if I run the build in my editor (Sublime Text 3) the grep fucks up the output (instead of getting real-time printing, it won't print anything until it's done with the whole build).

Regards, -Falk

I believe I already suggested this feature in #63, it's simple but useful.

If you're feeling like creating a pull request, feel free to do so. Otherwise, I can implement it in my spare time.

That would be nice. If possible, we could take the opportunity to get rid of if (verbose) print(..) in favor of logging APIs.

Marking this as part of the release 0.10.0 milestone.

Closing this as #68 has landed.
