Foreman running guard with color ouput

Question

I can run guard from within my foreman procfile - but the output is not as colorful as I'd like. The only color I see in my output is from Foreman...

I want to have a guardfile that manages rspec, cucumber and jasmine - AND have that nice color output when those tests run.

It would seem as if foreman ignores guard file settings. Any idea how to change that?

Answer 1

Add the --tty option to your rspec guard cli:

guard "rspec", :version => 2, :cli => "--tty ...other options..."

Answer 2

For version 4.5.0 of guard-rspec the following worked for me

guard :rspec, cmd_additional_args: "--tty", cmd: ...other...
