.UNINDENT
.SS Output Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out
Pass in an alternative outputter to display the return of data. This
outputter can be any of the available outputters:

.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Some outputters are formatted only for data returned from specific functions.
If an outputter is used that does not support the data passed into it, then
Salt will fall back on the \fBpprint\fP outputter and display the return data
using the Python \fBpprint\fP standard library module.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out\-indent OUTPUT_INDENT, \-\-output\-indent OUTPUT_INDENT
Print the output indented by the provided value in spaces. Negative values
disable indentation. Only applicable in outputters that support
indentation.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out\-file=OUTPUT_FILE, \-\-output\-file=OUTPUT_FILE
Write the output to the specified file.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out\-file\-append, \-\-output\-file\-append
Append the output to the specified file.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-no\-color
Disable all colored output
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-force\-color
Force colored output
.sp
\fBNOTE:\fP
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
When using colored output the color codes are as follows:
.sp
\fBgreen\fP denotes success, \fBred\fP denotes failure, \fBblue\fP denotes
changes and success and \fByellow\fP denotes a expected future change in configuration.
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-state\-output=STATE_OUTPUT, \-\-state_output=STATE_OUTPUT
Override the configured state_output value for minion
output. One of \(aqfull\(aq, \(aqterse\(aq, \(aqmixed\(aq, \(aqchanges\(aq or
\(aqfilter\(aq. Default: \(aqnone\(aq.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-state\-verbose=STATE_VERBOSE, \-\-state_verbose=STATE_VERBOSE
Override the configured state_verbose value for minion
output. Set to True or False. Default: none.
.UNINDENT
.sp
\fBNOTE:\fP
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
If using \fB\-\-out=json\fP, you will probably want \fB\-\-static\fP as well.
Without the static option, you will get a separate JSON string per minion
which makes JSON output invalid as a whole.
This is due to using an iterative outputter. So if you want to feed it
to a JSON parser, use \fB\-\-static\fP as well.
