CLI doesn’t display any information

[niksy]

When using WebTorrent as CLI app and specifying arguments in format webtorrrent [magnet-uri] --mpv, WebTorrent doesn’t display any useful information (peers, download status, download folder and such). Only when you exit the process via Ctrl+C you get the message "webtorrent is exiting...". File has started to download, so it seems like WebTorrent does it’s job, but you don’t have any sign of that other than visiting default /tmp/webtorrent directory.

Does this have something to do with DEBUG environment variable? Using peerflix you get useful information by default which is useful when used inside command line.

It works fine here. Maybe it has something to do with your os/terminal ?

Hm, nothing unsusal here, default Terminal app on OS X 10.10.1. My DEBUG variable has only one entry, iectrl:* so it could be that?

unset DEBUG if you want the console interface: https://github.com/feross/webtorrent/blob/master/bin/cmd.js#L104
