Is there's a way to capture Capistrano's output with tee?

[Manuel Vázquez Acosta]

Hi,

I'm trying to capture capistrano's output with tee in order to watch and
persist its output. But the file is being created with no content at
all. How can I make something like this work?

$ cap deploy | tee "`date +%s`-deploy.txt"

Best regards,
manuel.

Hi Manuel,

  By default Capistrano uses STDERROR to print messages. You can change it passing -l (or --logger) parameter to change this behaviour. If you run "cap -h" you will see:

   -l [STDERR|STDOUT|file]          Choose logger method. STDERR used by default.

        --logger

Regards

Thanks!

OK, I tried cap -h, I don't see such an option... Am I missing something or is there a new way to achieve this? 

I would love to redirect capistrano's output to a file and show my "puts" statements on the screen... Possible?

Please see "man tee" in your terminal, and a resource such as http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/manuals/scanps/subsubsection3_7_1_1.html (the last example)

This should make it clear for you.

I wrote a utility to always write a log of the deploy

https://github.com/donnoman/cap-recipes/blob/master/lib/cap_recipes/tasks/teelogger/teelogger.rb

So you never have to worry about doing at the command line.
