I avoided using concurrently for a while, to follow advice that I had run across that noted that output coloring would be lost from rescript compiler. I finally got sick of always running two terminals with next dev and bsb -make-world -w, and started using concurrently, on a project that uses nextjs and rescript.
Is there any plan on getting rescript cli to integrate smoothly with concurrently?
can you give more details?
You can see the following doesn’t color the output (when bsb is run under concurrently using npx concurrently "npx bsb -make-world -w" "next dev"):
and this snippet does color, when using bsb directly:
(Note: This is very minor and I have an easy work around. I’m just noting it in case someone is motivated to work on this later.)
Hi, this is expected behavior.
There is a work around to get color for script mode,
NINJA_ANSI_FORCED=1 npx concurrently ‘npx rescript’
see the pic
@kanishka btw, if you use our VSCode or vim plugin, you could let the plugin run bsb -w implicitly for you. Does that work?
Thanks, but I prefer having explicit control over the process, so I will go with NINJA_ANSI_FORCED .
