All Console output is standard error
See original GitHub issueGood day,
Thank you for this great tool,
I’m calling rio cogeo
from another application, I would like to know why any output of the program is flagged as a standard error.
for example
https://github.com/cogeotiff/rio-cogeo/blob/45b462e9503d29fe077b27a35d4b0e517c9fa76b/rio_cogeo/cogeo.py#L294

As another opinion, I agree with this article that all informational updates, like in this context, should go to
stderr
, notstdout
.The main usefulness of printing informative updates to
stderr
is that piping to other CLI programs works better because only the actual data is onstdout
.@kylebarron, Thanks for the explanation, Apologies for not being clear enough. I have a python script that calls the cog_translate API among other things, (this script is later called through the CLI via C#).
I didn’t think of that, I believe that will work for my use case. I will close this issue. Thank you!
I still believe having a progress callback might be a nice addition perhaps I should open another issue for that, let me know your thoughts.
