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.
