babeltrace2-sink.text.pretty - Babeltrace 2: Pretty-printing sink
component class
A Babeltrace 2 sink.text.pretty component pretty-prints the
events, discarded events, and discarded packets messages it
consumes to the standard output or to a file.
+------------------+
| sink.text.pretty |
| +--> Pretty-printed messages to
Messages -->@ in | the standard output or a file and
+------------------+ to the standard error
See babeltrace2-intro(7) to learn more about the Babeltrace 2
project and its core concepts.
By default, a sink.text.pretty component pretty-prints to the
standard output. You can use the path parameter to make the
component write to a file instead.
The component prints warnings on the standard error stream when it
consumes a discarded events or discarded packets message.
If you don’t use the path parameter and the standard output of the
application is connected to a color-capable terminal, the
component emits terminal color codes to enhance the text output.
You can use the color parameter to force the color support or to
disable it.
This component class is equivalent to the text output format of
babeltrace(1) (Babeltrace 1 command-line tool).
clock-cycles=VAL [optional boolean]
If VAL is true, then print event times in clock cycles instead
of hours, minutes, seconds, and nanoseconds.
Default: false.
clock-date=VAL [optional boolean]
If VAL is true, then print event times and dates.
Default: false.
clock-gmt=VAL [optional boolean]
If VAL is true, then print event times in the GMT time zone
instead of the local time zone.
Default: false.
clock-seconds=VAL [optional boolean]
If VAL is true, then print event times in seconds instead of
hours, minutes, seconds, and nanoseconds.
Default: false.
color=(never | auto | always) [optional string]
Force the terminal color support, one of:
auto (default)
Only emit terminal color codes when the standard output
and error streams are connected to a color-capable
terminal.
never
Never emit terminal color codes.
always
Always emit terminal color codes.
The BABELTRACE_TERM_COLOR environment variable overrides this
parameter.
field-default=(show | hide) [optional string]
By default, show or hide all the fields. This sets the default
value of all the parameters which start with field-.
field-emf=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the Eclipse Modeling Framework URI field of the
event.
Default, depending on the field-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
False
field-loglevel=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the logging level field of the event.
Default, depending on the field-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
False
field-trace=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the trace name field.
Default, depending on the field-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
False
field-trace:domain=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the tracing domain field.
Default, depending on the field-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
False
field-trace:hostname=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the hostname field.
Default, depending on the field-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
True
field-trace:procname=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the process name field.
Default, depending on the field-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
True
field-trace:vpid=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the virtual process ID field.
Default, depending on the field-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
True
name-default=(show | hide) [optional string]
By default, show or hide all the names. This sets the default
value of all the parameters which start with name-.
name-header=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the field names in the header scopes.
Default, depending on the name-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
False
name-context=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the field names in the context scopes.
Default, depending on the name-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
True
name-payload=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the field names in the event payload scopes.
Default, depending on the name-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
True
name-scope=VAL [optional boolean]
Show or hide the scope names.
Default, depending on the name-default parameter:
show
True
hide
False
Not set
False
no-delta=VAL [optional boolean]
If VAL is true, then don’t print the time delta between
consecutive lines.
Default: false.
path=PATH [optional string]
Print the text output to the file PATH instead of the standard
output.
print-enum-flags=VAL [optional boolean]
If VAL if true, then try to print enumeration field values as
a pipe-delimited (|) list of bit flags, if it applies.
When printing the value of an enumeration field without any
corresponding mapping, a sink.text.pretty component splits the
value into its individual bit values: if each set bit has a
corresponding mapping, then it considers that those mappings
are in fact bit flags.
If a set bit has no corresponding mapping, then the component
prints <unknown>.
Default: false.
verbose=VAL [optional boolean]
If VAL if true, then turn the verbose mode on.
Default: false.

Single input port.
BABELTRACE_EXEC_ON_ABORT=CMDLINE
Execute the command line CMDLINE, as parsed like a UNIX 98
shell, when any part of the Babeltrace 2 project unexpectedly
aborts.
The application only aborts when the executed command returns,
ignoring its exit status.
This environment variable is ignored when the application has
the setuid or the setgid access right flag set.
BABELTRACE_TERM_COLOR=(AUTO | NEVER | ALWAYS)
Force the terminal color support for the babeltrace2(1)
program and the project plugins.
The available values are:
AUTO
Only emit terminal color codes when the standard output
and error streams are connected to a color-capable
terminal.
NEVER
Never emit terminal color codes.
ALWAYS
Always emit terminal color codes.
BABELTRACE_TERM_COLOR_BRIGHT_MEANS_BOLD=0
Set to 0 to emit SGR (see
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code>) codes 90
to 97 for bright colors instead of bold (SGR code 1) and
standard color codes (SGR codes 30 to 37).
