Warnings are printed to STDOUT not STDERR
In ipinfo/init.go and ipinfo/ipinfo_client.go warnings are printed to STDOUT:
func init() {
if err := InitConfig(); err != nil {
fmt.Println("warn: error in creating config file.")
}
}
if gConfig.CacheEnabled && !fNoCache {
boltdbCache, err := NewBoltdbCache()
if err != nil {
fmt.Printf("warn: cache will not be used: %v", err)
} else {
cache = ipinfo.NewCache(boltdbCache)
}
}
The expected behaviour is that all error messages and diagnostics are on STDERR where STDOUT is reserved for "normal output".
This behaviour was observed when I was using info cidr2ip as part of a pipeline but it would sporadically fail because sometimes the config file fails to be created and "warn: error in creating config file" is injected into the list of expanded CIDR ranges.
Thanks!
