Colors support for CLI output

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

we are using the Jdeploy library for deploying and running the CLI tool written on Java.

Jdeploy is a great tool and everything is fine except for one little issue with colors.

If I run it as a regular Java application, colors are displayed correctly:

But if I run it as a command after installation via Jdeploy, colors are disappeared:

Tried to edit the jdeploy.js file and add --colors or --ansi to the command (cmd variable), but it doesn’t work:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: org.apache.commons.cli.UnrecognizedOptionException: Unrecognized option: --colors

Is there any way to fix this issue?

I had similar issue, you case might be different but this worked for me. I had Jansi in my JAR file, removing jansi.jar from my executable JAR helped fix it for me.

Also try to update jdeploy’s dependency shelljs version to 0.8.4
