Hi, everyone.
I know I'm going to regret asking this... but I've prepared a change to
the Portage output format and I think it asks for a wider discussion
than internally in Portage team.
The primary problem with the current output format is that different
kinds of messages differ only in color. This makes them
indistinguishable without colors and hard to grep. ago's been asking
for a better way to grep for QA warnings and this is pretty much what motivated me to do this.
The proposed new format distinguished message types both using colors
and strings. This is roughly inspired by Xorg logs. For example,
instead of:
* some message
* other message
* hell if i know what this is
You get:
[WW] some message
[EE] other message
[QA] hell if i know what this is
I've also added more colors to explicitly distinguish einfo from elog,
and ewarn from eqawarn. Then, I've replaced most of '>>>' and '!!!'
used by Portage with four-character versions to keep messages aligned.
The 'zings' used for merging files remain three-character, so now it's
easily possible to distinguish messages from installed file list.
The PR doing this is: https://github.com/gentoo/portage/pull/759

Using the same markers as Xorg (especially [--]) but with different
meaning may be confusing though. Xorg has these:
    Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting,     (++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational,
    (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
So, maybe change einfo from [--] to [II]?

Nah, the whole point is to avoid letters since it's not very important. Alternatively to '[--]' I could make it look down '[..]' or maybe even without eyes entirely '[ ]'.

Yeah, anything but [--]. The version with the dots is nice.

Didn't expect to be the only dissenting opinion on something like this
but. . . Some applications parse portage output looking for these
'zings'. At very least app-portage/kuroo does it this way; there must be others, right? This is obviously not the ideal way to get information
out of portage, but it's been stable for the 15 years Kuroo has existed. 10-ish years ago dol-sen started some work on building and API for
portage, but then got sucked into core portage development to the point
of abandoning their GTK+ portage GUI porthole, which was the original
impetus for an API, and as far as we know, the API never made it to the
point it could replace parsing the output.
It wouldn't be worth blocking progress for one application that not many people use, but assuming there are others that will also break with this change. Are we sure there's no way to support ago's (very valuable) work without breaking other things?

Hi,
Would it be possible to have some switch (e.g. --style=legacy) that
controls this new vs. the old behaviour? Would perhaps allow
applications that parse the output to work via setting this in the
global opts.
In addition, much like the colour map, how do you see this change in
light of eclasses, init-scripts, etc. that also use the same scheme as Portage at the moment? Would you expect to change those too at some
point?
Final question, am I understanding correctly that normal lines are not prefixed with something? Would it be, for consistency, alignment, and certainty of selecting rows something to use a prefix for those lines
too (assuming they aren't at this point)?

Patches welcome. It shouldn't be hard, my commit shows which files need
to be edited to alter the prefixes and how to pass them into ebd.

Eclasses are supposed to use standard einfo, elog... functions, so they should just workâ„¢. If someone's reinventing the wheel, it's not my problem.
Init scripts aren't supposed to be used inside the PM, so that's out of scope.

I don't know, we've never done that. I suppose it would be possible but
it is even more controversial and unlike the proposed changes, it would actually require mangling the process output.

Kuroo is already a quite complex application that parse portage
output. A quick grep seems to show that changes needed are quite
manageable.
Also the parsing should be more accurate with proposed changes.
Rather it should be easy for the application to know in advance which
format the output will be.
There is also the opportunity to have a flag that enable (or disable)
the augmented output, but IMHO this should be done only if the added complexity is NIL

Perhaps this would be better as a FEATURE flag? E.g., 'legacy-output' or something similar?

If only the length of the >>> and !!! strings is a problem, then why not leave them alone and go for single-letter tags instead? Like this:
[.] einfo
[I] elog
[W] ewarn
[E] eerror
[Q] eqawarn
The only problematic one is [Q] instead of [QA] which is no longer self-explanatory. Then again, only devs and experienced users should see eqawarn messages.

fwiw eqawarn is currently displayed for everyone in a similar manner
as einfo, just not post-emerge/elog without adding to ELOG classes.
If users aren't hiding build logs entirely, they may notice those
done at the end (often shown after size report) -- and possibly
think it's a problem.
Not to say whether [Q] vs [QA] would help with this much so I have
no strong opinion here.

Final question, am I understanding correctly that normal lines are not prefixed with something? Would it be, for consistency, alignment, and certainty of selecting rows something to use a prefix for those lines too (assuming they aren't at this point)?
I don't know, we've never done that. I suppose it would be possible but it is even more controversial and unlike the proposed changes, it would actually require mangling the process output.
If I remember correctly, Portage already does. In which case, doing
this (even if it were adding leading spaces) would not be that much
work?
I'm afraid this is not that simple. You need to account for all escape sequences that can affect editing already output data including clean handling of line wrapping. In the end, we'd have to have a complete detachtty-class terminal emulator inside Portage.

Further discussion belongs on a different list, but the link provided byThe patches were also posted for review on the gentoo-portage-dev mailing list.
mgorny and repeated by you does not allow collaborating in compliance
with the Gentoo Social Contract.

I know I'm going to regret asking this... but I've prepared a change to
the Portage output format and I think it asks for a wider discussion
than internally in Portage team.
As I suspected, I truly regret sending this mail. I'm dangerously close
to burning out, so I'm going to retract these patches. When you decide
what you want and make patches for it, feel free to send them to
Portage.
