grey colour not visible

[smontanari]

We all love our own personalised terminal colour settings. I've recently switched to using a version of a Solarized Dark theme that unfortunately makes the default ansi-gray color pretty much invisible. Is there any chance you would allow to make the timestamp colorisation configurable (say with a custom colour) or even just optional (so the console output falls back to whatever the standard is set for the current terminal)?
Thank you

Output theming is planned for gulp-cli (see gulpjs/gulp-cli#63) - I'm not sure how that will be propagated down into fancy-log or if it will be a layer on top.

all right, thanks. I'll wait to see how that develops

dark blue also not very visible. (which gulp not using)

any updates on this? unfortunately gray makes this logger unusable due to the date not being visible.

This is effectively an issue with the theme, which is still open. See here: altercation/solarized#220

A quick fix is to use Solarized Dark - patched: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes/master/schemes/Solarized%20Dark%20-%20Patched.itermcolors

More info on the issue here:

• Re-add theme as Solarized Dark - Patched mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes#63

Planning to "solve" this with #23 (and land in 2.0), which does 2 things:

1. Switches the color magenta—node's default color for Dates
2. Uses utils.inspect to allow color overrides following node's docs on custom formatting.
