Description
Some dumb terminals print to the console excessively with Gatsby's build output, printing a new line for each animation.
While ci-info does detect many CI/CD environments, it may be necessary to explicitly declare
CI=true
to makeci-info
aware of its CI environment. As far as I understand,ci-info
's moduleisCI
conditionally determines whetherink
will be used to update build activity to the console.In addition to
CI
, the multi-core build environment variable is relevant to document alongside since both are likely to be useful in virtual integration environments, as I found in constructing my own build pipeline with Gatsby. Some connection should be made fromgatsby build
to the available environmental variable side effects.Related Issues
