[Feature request] Option to disable the default output entirely

[gmolau]

I think it would be nice to be able to disable the standard output (with the progress bar) entirely. This would make it possible to cleanly pipe the JSON output to another process (via --export-json /dev/stdout). It seems like making the --style option accept none would be a good way to implement this. I'm unfortunately not familiar with Rust (otherwise I would just submit a PR), but maybe this could be considered for the future.

Great idea, thank you very much.

In the meantime, you can use process substitution to pipe the output to another process. Not as beautiful as it could be, I agree:

> hyperfine 'sleep 0.1' --export-json >(jq '.results[0].mean') >/dev/null
0.10603645827285715

Hi @sharkdp, I am currently using hyperfine and find it quite nice tool. If this issue is still relevant I could implement it. Is it?

[sharkdp]

It is, yes.

That would be great

[knidarkness]

Great, could you assign it to me and I`ll check it on the weekend?

This works now:

hyperfine --style=none --export-json /dev/stdout 'sleep 0.1' | jq '.results[].mean'

Great, thanks!
