TL;DR: ffx component show is easier to read and prints more information!


Hey folks!


We’ve updated the visual layout of the ffx component show command to make component information easier to read! Also, if a component is running, the reason it was started is printed out. Here are some screenshots of the changes:


Component and execution states are highlighted in color:

Component information is horizontally aligned for clarity:

Start reason explains why a component is currently running. Most components are started because another component requested a capability that they expose, for example:

If a component is started using ffx component plug-ins, Start reason will reflect this:
