What happened?

This issue where you can click a file path in the console output of biome check should have resolved IntelliJ (in my case webstorm) files being clickable in terminal output. Unfortunately, they aren't.

#1815

It could be an IDE issue though. I cannot get it to work even using echo or an absolute file path using echo. I am using NextJS and they have hyper links that are clickable in webstorm just fine.

Expected result

Be able to click the file path and the file opens.

I have managed to make it work on jetbrains via echo:

echo " at ./.gitignore:1:1"
 at ./.gitignore:1:1

This also works on Cursor IDE which is basically VSCode, and on Pycharm. Let me know how I can contribute this Making a PR now

Unf

echo " at ./.gitignore
  at ./.gitignore

does nothing on all jetbrains ides!

Interestingly:

echo "file:///.gitignore"
file:///.gitignore

is the only way to make it work when there are no column/row markers, but clicking on it requires an absolute path on all jetbrains IDEs

a little more discovery:

echo "/Users/andrew/Work/Code/projects/hi.ts\n   34:25  error"
/Users/andrew/Work/Code/projects/hi.js
   34:25  error

the 34:25 error is clickable, but this only applies to webstorm and VSCode. On PyCharm this doesn't work. This line was taken from eslint

however this is something that works on pycharm

(venv) andrew@Mac django-rest-framework-simplejwt % echo rest_framework_simplejwt/serializers.py:1:1
rest_framework_simplejwt/serializers.py:1:1
# Note the :1:1 -> Only up to the first `1` is actually clickable
(venv) andrew@Mac django-rest-framework-simplejwt % echo ./rest_framework_simplejwt/serializers.py:1
./rest_framework_simplejwt/serializers.py:1

unbelievable
