Struct Output 

pub struct Output {
    pub colors: bool,
    pub symbols: SymbolMode,
    pub verbosity: Verbosity,
    pub json: bool,
}

Output handler with styled terminal output.

Respects configuration for colors, symbols, and verbosity levels. Supports JSON output mode for scripting and machine consumption.

Fields

colors: bool

Whether to use ANSI colors

symbols: SymbolMode

Symbol mode (unicode or ascii)

verbosity: Verbosity

Verbosity level

json: bool

Whether to output JSON instead of human-readable text

Implementations

impl Output

pub fn new(verbose: bool, quiet: bool, json: bool) -> Self

Create output handler from CLI flags.

Loads config to get style settings, then applies CLI flag overrides. NO_COLOR environment variable takes precedence over config.

pub fn use_color(&self) -> bool

Whether ANSI color codes are enabled.

Used by modules like doctor::format_report() to decide whether to include color escapes in their output.

pub fn success_symbol(&self) -> &'static str

Get success symbol based on symbol mode.

pub fn error_symbol(&self) -> &'static str

Get error symbol based on symbol mode.

pub fn info_symbol(&self) -> &'static str

Get info symbol based on symbol mode.

pub fn warning_symbol(&self) -> &'static str

Get warning symbol based on symbol mode.

pub fn success(&self, message: &str)

Print a success message.

Suppressed in quiet mode. Uses green color when colors are enabled. Writes to stderr to avoid corrupting stdout data output.

pub fn error( &self, error_type: &str, message: &str, cause: Option<&str>, help: Option<&str>, )

Print an error message with optional cause and help text.

Always printed (even in quiet mode). Uses red color when colors are enabled.

pub fn warning(&self, message: &str)

Print a warning message.

Suppressed in quiet mode. Uses yellow color when colors are enabled. Writes to stderr to avoid corrupting stdout data output.

pub fn debug(&self, message: &str)

Print a debug message.

Only printed in verbose mode. Uses gray color when colors are enabled. Writes to stderr to avoid corrupting stdout data output.

pub fn info(&self, message: &str)

Print an info message.

Suppressed in quiet mode. Writes to stderr to avoid corrupting stdout data output.

pub fn style_command(&self, text: &str) -> String

Style text as an inline command (cyan with color, backtick-wrapped without).

Used for displaying command suggestions like rec start or rec stop.

pub fn style_success(&self, text: &str) -> String

Style text as success (green with color, plain without).

pub fn style_error(&self, text: &str) -> String

Style text as error (red with color, plain without).

pub fn is_verbose(&self) -> bool

Check if verbose mode is enabled.

pub fn is_quiet(&self) -> bool

Check if quiet mode is enabled.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Output

fn clone(&self) -> Output

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Default for Output

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl Copy for Output
