[Support]: How to pin an output? about listr2 HOT 4 CLOSED

Hello @cdwmhcc,

You can use the persistent output option on default renderer to do so.

Please read the documentation on it at here.

Using the outputBar or bottomBar you can choose to keep the last n entries with the default behavior it will only keep the last one.

You can find more about this at here.

You may not understand what I mean. As shown in the example, a certain output is fixed under the same task.

For example, there is such a scene, Only two lines of output are retained, but one output needs to be pined.

rendererOptions: {
  outputBar: 2,
},

const arr = [0,1,2,3,4,5]
let index = 0
for await (const item of arr) {
    index += 1
    // Pin the output until the task is completed.
    task.output = `Completion progress: ${index}/${arr.length}`

    task.output = `In progress: ${item}`
    task.output = 'other output'
}
task.output = 'other output'

aaah i see. sorry for that. in that case with the current structure it is not possible to do so.

if further requests come in like this i can add that as an feature.

Thanks for your quick reply!This is how I currently handle it, but it doesn't look elegant enough.

{
    title: 'task title',
    task: async (ctx, task): Promise<void> => {
        const finished = []
        for await (const item of ctx.items) {
            finished.push(item.name)
            task.title = `task title ${green(finished.length)}/${ctx.items.length}`
            await useUpdateData(item, { ctx, task })
        }
        task.title = 'task title'
    },
},
