a| This option is useful if you want to integrate Rhubarb Lip Sync with another (possibly graphical) application. All status messages to `stderr` will be in structured JSON format, allowing your program to parse them and display a graphical progress bar or something similar. For details, see <<machineReadable,Machine-readable status messages>>.

In this mode, each line printed to `stderr` will be an object in JSON format. Every object contains the following:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Property `type`: The type of the event. Currently, one of `"start"` (application start), `"progress"` (numeric progress), `"success"` (successful termination), `"failure"` (unsuccessful termination), and `"log"` (a log message without structured information).
|
|
||||||
* Event-specific structured data. For instance, a `"progress"` event contains the property `value` with a numeric value between 0.0 and 1.0.
|
|
||||||
* Property `log`: A log message describing the event, plus severity information. If you aren't interested in the structured data, you can display this as a fallback. For instance, a `"progress"` event with the structured information `"value": 0.69` may contain the following redundant log message: `"Progress: 69%"`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can combine this option with the <<consoleLevel,`consoleLevel`>> option. Note, however, that this only affects unstructured events of type `"log"` (not to be confused with the `log` property each event contains).

Note that the output format <<Versioning,adheres to SemVer>>. That means that the JSON output created after a minor upgrade will still be compatible. Note, however, that the following kinds of changes may occur at any time, because I interpret them as compatible:
|
|

|
|
||||||
* Additional types of progress events. Just ignore those events whose types you do not know or use their unstructured `log` property.
|
|
||||||
* Additional properties in any object. Just ignore properties you aren't interested in.
|
|
||||||
* Changes in JSON formatting, such as a re-ordering of properties or changes in whitespaces (except for line breaks -- every event will remain on a singe line.)
|

* Fewer or more events of type `"log"` or changes in the wording of log messages

== Machine-readable status messages

Use the `--machineReadable` command-line option to enable machine-readable status messages. In this mode, each line printed to `stderr` will be an object in JSON format. Every object contains the following:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Property `type`: The type of the event. Currently, one of `"start"` (application start), `"progress"` (numeric progress), `"success"` (successful termination), `"failure"` (unsuccessful termination), and `"log"` (a log message without structured information).

|
||||||
|
* Property `log`: A log message describing the event, plus severity information. If you aren't interested in the structured data, you can display this as a fallback. For instance, a `"progress"` event with the structured information `"value": 0.69` may contain the following redundant log message: `"Progress: 69%"`.
