🧰 Changes
Much to my annoyance, there's some issues where the GitHub Actions annotations don't process ANSI escape codes created by
chalk
properly (even though they claim to support them), resulting in messy error messages that look like this:The only fix I've found is to disable
chalk
entirely, which removes colors from the logs but results in cleaner error messages at least:See below for example links for all the possible
FORCE_COLOR
value results (scroll down to the Annotations section):FORCE_COLOR
value: https://github.com/readmeio/rdme/actions/runs/1930104181FORCE_COLOR=0
