debug text is red

[zatziky]

Do you have any idea why is the text color of debug(...) always red?

I can't find any option that could influence the text color. Is it only our project? Here is how we use it:

const debug = require('debug')('amio-websocket:db-connector')

debug('Connection to MongoDB is open now.')

This is not the behavior I see in my application. Perhaps some other tool in/around your application is setting the color and debug is just using whatever previous color was set?

Are you running it through Docker? Docker colors stderr output as red.

Many things output stderr as red. This is not something we can fix, sorry.

@TooTallNate @jacobq No, I'm running it using from Jetbrains PhpStorm. It really has something to do with the IDE. If I use their npm module then all the text colors are red. When using npm run-script ... or npm run ... the color is black:

I'll raise a bug in Jetbrains. Thank you for your questions. ;)
