Option for less verbose Cromwell stdout

Open sooheelee opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

An attendee at the July 2018 Cambridge UK workshop asks for this option. The feature request is also posted at https://gatkforums.broadinstitute.org/wdl/discussion/12482/option-for-less-verbose-cromwell-stdout/p1?new=1.

That attendee and me both.

It's been a known sore spot since, well, day 1

Any suggestions or plans to reduce the verbosity?

Wait longer? :) It's perpetually on our todo list, just never have gotten to it

Ok. Just letting you know users want it enough to vocalize it.

It looks like the link OP posted is now a 404, but I'd also like to voice an interest in this option. I have written a few workflows by now and have found that the output of Cromwell is very difficult to navigate through. It's tricky to quickly find errors, especially if the output is piped through a file with no color coding or any situation involving automated tests.
