How do I get rid of the Executing/Progress Bar when running a Gradle application?

Question

I am trying to build a console based application but whenver I run

./gradlew run

I get thr progress bar which looks like this:

<=========----> 75% EXECUTING [29s]

Is there anyway I can remove this bar (which hangs out until the application ends)? Or is there a better way to write console base applications with gradle?

The version is 4.3.1

Answer 1

You can configure the Gradle log format using console command line parameter, as described here : https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/command_line_interface.html#rich_console

Try with : ./gradlew run --console=plain

Answer 2

Another way of doing this seems to be by setting the TERM environment variable to dumb.

Try TERM=dumb ./gradlew run
