awesome_print显示的信息太多

Question

I'm using awesome_print , and when I run a command in which awesome_print is invoked, the following result is returned:

 irb(main):002:0> ap User.find(1)
    ←[1m←[36mUser Load (0.0ms)←[0m  ←[1mSELECT  "users".* FROM "users" WHERE "users"."id" = ? LIMIT 1←[0m  [["id", 1]]
    #<User:0x57d9650> {
        :id←[0;37m => ←[0m←[1;34m1←[0m,
        :name←[0;37m => ←[0m←[0;33m"aa"←[0m,
        :email←[0;37m => ←[0m←[0;33m"aa"←[0m,
        :created_at←[0;37m => ←[0m←[0;32mTue, 26 May 2015 15:13:51 UTC +00:00←[0m,
        :updated_at←[0;37m => ←[0m←[0;32mTue, 26 May 2015 15:13:51 UTC +00:00←[0m

However, I notice information like ←[0;37m is displayed.

I have two questions :

• What do things like ←[0;37m mean?

• How do you delete the above notation in order to print results like:

   :id => 1, :first_name => "aa", :last_name => "aa" :created_at => Tue, 26 May 2015 15:13:51 UTC +00:00 

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

The 0;37m -type content are ANSI color codes - it's possible your current setup isn't rendering them properly.

You should be able to remove those notations by modifying the default color setting in awesome_print. A file, awesome_print.rb , can be created in the config/initializers directory.

config/initializers/awesome_print.rb:

AwesomePrint.defaults = {
  :plain => true # do not use colors
  # any further default settings you wish to specify
}

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

If you are not using colors you might as well not use awesome_print gem. There is ruby built in plain text pretty print.

require 'pp'
pp User.find(1)

You are probably running this on windows machine, if so check out ANSI color codes for Windows Command Prompt
