Colored text output in Bitbucket Pipelines command output helps with troubleshooting of builds. However, because we run builds with a non-interactive shell and the TERM variable is not set, many tools do not produce the ANSI color codes needed for these to work.

Workaround

Use command line arguments like -color or -color=force will work for many tools to force colored output in Pipelines. You may also need to set the TERM environment variable to 'xterm' for some tools.
