Colorize live-log levelnames #3142

twmr · 2018-01-23T00:06:38Z

I propose to prettify the default output of the live logs a bit by colorizing the levelnames.

A screenshot paints a thousand words:

What do you think about this?

Are there tests that test the text colors of the pytest output, where I can take a look at?

Unfortunately no AFAIK. 😕

Note that I successfully tested this PR in cpython2.7 and in cpython3.6.

This is how it looks on Windows:

This looks great @thisch, please take a look at my comments! 👍

 DEFAULT_LOG_FORMAT = '%(filename)-25s %(lineno)4d %(levelname)-8s %(message)s'
 DEFAULT_LOG_DATE_FORMAT = '%H:%M:%S'

Probably both LEVELNAME_FMT_REGEX and LOGLEVEL_COLOROPTS would be better off being class attributes of ColoredLevelFormatter.

Please use six.PY3 instead (this will make it easier later to find python2-specific code)

Ditto here for six.PY3 👍

To test this, probably the way to go is to unittest the ColoredLevelFormatter class directly: create an instance and pass different LogRecord instances and ensure they have the correct markup applied. Also interesting to use custom log levels and ensure they don't have any markup.

Unfortunately this does not work, since tw.markup() does not add ANSI escape sequences around the string in the unit tests:

(Pdb++) tw.markup('abc', red=True) 'abc' (Pdb++) tw.hasmarkup False

Any ideas?

I'll do some mocking and then it should work.

I guess that this is already too late for pytest 3.4, right?

twmr · 2018-01-30T12:35:52Z

BTW, I don't understand why the tests fail.

I guess that this is already too late for pytest 3.4, right?

I plan to release 3.4 when I get home later, but if we merge this until then I will be happy to generate the package again.

BTW, I don't understand why the tests fail.

No idea either, seems to be some bad interaction with mock... I suggest to try to use monkeypatch in your test instead of mock to see if the problem goes away (plus it will work on Python 2 as well).

twmr · 2018-01-30T15:26:27Z

Let's hope that the tests now pass.

nicoddemus · 2018-01-30T15:35:18Z

Just remembered this now and would like to confirm, passing --color=no disables the colors?

twmr · 2018-01-30T15:59:55Z

Now the color config option should be taken into account. This made the monkeypatching code obsolete.

I could also perform the color check in the condition in line 435. Then I don't need to pass self._config to the __init__ method of ColoredLevelFormatter.

Seems better

I didn't know that color is a ternary type ('yes', 'no' and 'auto'). So I can't add self._config.option.color == 'yes' and to the if condition. If the value of the color option is 'auto' the TerminalWriter.init determines if the terminal supports markup or not.

An alternative would be to pass a terminalwriter object (_pytest.config.create_terminal_writer(self._config)) as the first arg of ColoredLevelFormatter. Don't know if this makes it better.

An alternative would be to pass a terminalwriter object (_pytest.config.create_terminal_writer(self._config)) as the first arg of ColoredLevelFormatter. Don't know if this makes it better.

This reduces the number of dependencies at least (ColoredLevelFormatter will then depend only on TerminalWriter, instead of Config and TerminalWriter with the current code), so feel free to go with this route.

If all tests pass, this is ready for merging.
