Feature suggestion: output some form of progress to console

Open stigzler opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

Is there any way to do this. I'm accessing your app from a .net app and I'm wanting to provide some kind of user feedback regarding progress. some ideas would include:

  • Number on one line = the number of games being processed. Then a running total of games processed (e.g. 1...2...3 etc)

  • Even better - a percentage complete every second.

Loving your app!

I have done this in the past but it might work in general to spin up a server that can be queried for the status. I assume it would be easier to parse some json/proto than to parse the command line output.

HI sselph + thanks for the reply. I'm not sure to be honest. I know how to capture the command line output, but can't envisage how a server/json output would work (my bad - I'm just an amateur coder). Whichever way, as long as there's a way to capture some output in .net, all's good! :)
