allow colorful ansi output #12

Open abendt opened 7 years ago

Hey Tim,

i have a feature request. it would be nice to have colorful ansi output from my maven/ansible execution. looks like you'd need to pass an environment variable to the created ansible process (https://major.io/2014/06/25/get-colorful-ansible-output-in-jenkins/).

regards, Alphonse

Hi Alphonse

Sorry for the slow reply. The environment for the process that runs ansible should be inherited from the mvn process, therefore if the property is set before the build is run it should be passed to ansible.

export ANSIBLE_FORCE_COLOR=true; mvn verify

Does this work for you or is there a reason for explicitly setting it within the plugin?

Hi Tim,

yes, it does work. In my opinion it would be nice to have an option within maven to keep the build self contained.

regards, Alphonse
