How do I define reporter in metro.config.js?

Ask your Question

Cli always overrides the definition of reporter, I can't override the reporter in metro.config.js

metro reporter config

cli override

Hey @zhiqingchen, you can use --customLogReporterPath option to provide path to custom TerminalReporter when starting Metro. Does this solution satisfy you? or do you need to replace the whole reporter in your case?

@szymonrybczak Thanks for the reply.
I've customized the metro configuration a bit more, and the reporter is logically associated with the cacheStore and server.

The --customLogReporterPath option is more difficult for me to use.

Is it possible to not override the reporter when it has been customized by the user?

[szymonrybczak]

AFAIK you are not able to do that with current implementation. I think we can support this. Mind creating PR with adding this?
