Pipe console out during deploy in realtime

I’m using the deploy.ps1 to kick of my already existing nant deplotscript.
When the deploy is done i can see all the stdout/stderr messages in the web interface, but i would really like to follow it realtime.

TeamCity allows this and automatically scrolls the output.

Hi,

This isn’t possible currently, but thanks for the suggestion. I’ve added it to the backlog:

Just to let you know this is now fixed - the latest Octopus/Tentacle combination will now show real-time output from PowerShell.

Thanks this a great help while tracking deployments!

I would now like to view the output as a console though. Meaning a max-height on the output div with an autoscroll functionality. My output is really verbose so manually scrolling to keep up is my last nuisance.

I would love this as i end up using BareTail to a network share to watch my log files…

I found when calling external scripts (e.g. RoundhousE) from the Deploy.ps1, I had to append “| Write-Host” to the call to get Octopus to display the messages. Not a biggie.
