Output

No matter where you are in Savant, you have access to the Output object. This object provides a couple of methods for outputting information from your build script or plugin. The basic methods are:

• debug - Prints out a debug message if the –debug command-line switch is provided
• info - Prints out an informational message
• warning - Prints out a warning message
• error - Prints out an error message

All of these methods take the message as a String and an optional list of values that are used to fill out the message using printf syntax. For example:

output.info("some info %s", "message");

// Prints "some info message"

There is also a specialized debug() method that takes a Throwable.
