View Chef logs live and colorized?

[evandam]

🙍 Problem Statement

Logs during the Chef run are not visible until the run is complete, and color is lost. The logs pause at Preparing client.rb, and then all logs get flushed.

❔ Possible Solution

An option to provide in kitchen.yml to immediately flush logs as they are received and to preserve color (ex: if running kitchen manually, not in CI).

⤴️ Describe alternatives you've considered

Leave things the way they are 😇

I've tried things like chef_options: " -z --color" but no luck.

➕ Additional context

Thanks folks!

Hey @evandam 👋🏻 -- color output is supported now and merged in with #250, is this good to close out?

Sounds good, thanks @collinmcneese
