Ruby Compass compiler output

I am using java process to execute compass compiler task. So I am using process.getErrorStream() and process.getInputStream().

In output logs I have strange bash characters like [33m, [31m. Logs:

2013-02-08 14:03:49,417 INFO [....BaseProcessManager] (ajp-0.0.0.0-8009-1) Error reader: [31m[0m

Do you know why this happening and if there is solution not to have this symbols in output?

Solution

  • Those are control characters for color log output

    their generation is controlled by the Compass.configuration.color_output flag

    try running compass --boring which should remove them for you, or set the color_output flag to false if you want it to be the default.
